Hi everyone! I´m new here and i live in Sweden. I just wanna show you my car.

Awesome looking car. Any pictures of the interior? I'm looking to do the same thing with my car.

[maxman142001]

[volvo940tuner]

fresh looking car, still making me want those HOVA lights for my 744 tic SE.

[Denesfay]

I´m happy you guys like it!

Interior pics coming tomorrow!;-)

[taleof2bricks]

Nice car!

Just a question: Were you doing "donuts" just before taking these pics?

[Vol242vo]

I Love all the Changement!

[Denesfay]

Nice car!

No, not with the 19 inch Pegasus. To expensive to do dounts with them for me ;)
I have taken the pictures in a place where people do donuts ;)

I Love all the Changement!

Thanks!

On the outside i have done following:

19" rims
25mm Spacers
Volvo original add-on. I have modified the rear bumper so i can have the old add-on skirt. It is 940 add-on in the front.
Classicpaint on the bumpers.
Scantech rear lights that Hova sales.
USA turn signal lamps.
New headlights and also black painted reflector.
40mm loweringkit back and shorted original in the front (going to change to 40mm loweringkit in the front also).
I have change the roof hatch to 960 glass roof hatch.
JT 3" exhaust all the way.
940 intercooler and tropicradiator with electric 2 step coolingfan.
960 door handles.
Some decals.

Coming soon:
Painted Snowcap.
Painted 940 Sidemirrors.
Modified and painted reflectionramp.

I Have also changed from standard fan/heating package in the car to ECC system. And as i wrote earlier i have the 944 -98 interioir with the half skin seats. The interior is in grey.
So i have converted the 740 instrument to fit the 940 instrument and so on.

You Swedes make it look so good. Lookin nice man.

[GSWAGON]

How is the lighting affected by painting reflectors black?

Car looks bad ass!

[244tiCanuck]

It looks like just the sides and top/bottom (unused surfaces) of the inside is painted black, not the reflectors themselves (in the headlights)

[Denesfay]

No, it´s not affected because i have just painted top and bottom in the reflector. Not the surface where the light reflects. Deadsurfaces.

Thats right!

[Sabonim]

its like my car... but about 50 to 100 times better...
nice to know what it can look like!

[Dr Dokeh]

I've been thinking of doing that to my 940's headlights for ages but was unsure how it would look. Now I know it looks awesome so I guess I'll be painting them soon :oogle:

Beautiful car!, black 744s are the best.

[Devolv]

More pics of the headlights painted? can't really see how they look like due to building heavy shadows... I was actually drawing it up in photoshop and wondered how it would look, definitely potential and since the chrome on my reflectors are starting to chip, this would be an awesome solution.

[Vee_Que]

That's an awesome beast, and you've done more then a few mods I want to do to my 760.

Was just wondering about your rear seat from the 940, did you also use the parcel shelf from it to cover up the gap? Otherwise what did you do to mount the top of the rear seat properly and cover the bit that shows above the window line?

[Dutch-Harry]

That's a cool car! I like it when there is no coating on de rearwindows.

[Delfosse]

you need a BBK to fill up the empty space between the spokes.

[Denesfay]

BBK?:wtf:;-)

[Delfosse]

big brake kit (bigger rotors and calipers)

Aha. No i have a little better brakes then original brakes. EBC Green Stuff and ventilated discs.

[Denesfay]

Here are some more pics. Sorry for the long waiting but i have been busy for a while.

The -98 940 classic interior. Before this i had a black 960 full skininterior with electric seats, but i like these better:

[kingfreddy]

That is one hell of a 740!

[jfs356]

That is one hot 740, nice work:cool:

[1stRaven]

Nice work and great paint.

[Denesfay]

I´m thinking of mounting my original trunk spoiler. What do you think?

[cjstephens]

i love the scary van in the background of the last pic.
spoilers on 740s are exactly as the name states.
see --> spoil

Scary van lol!? :) It´s just an old crappy American van ;) :P Over here those vans are often in very very bad shape and very rusty.

What do you mean with "See-->spoil"?:roll::oops:

[Jordan]

He means that they "spoil" the look of the car...

Personally with a car as cool as yours do whatever you want. Its obvious you have taste/skill and can decide for yourself!

[ZVOLVO240]

I like your turbo safety sticker! :nod:

can you tell me where you got it. Id love to have one!!!

It´s a Swedish site but maybe you can order anyway.

[Matt]

What exactly is a "snowcap?" Your car is amazing, the wheels are a little big for my tastes, but it looks great.

[stylngle2003]

snow cap looks like a cowl scoop. designed to keep snow and debris from clogging up the fresh air vent that is on the cowl. like so:http://www.pbase.com/stylngle2003/image/34356991/original.jpg


imo...dual 240 caps look MUCH better, but the 7/9 ones are sweet too

[Matt]

Ah, cool. Where can one get one? Lol.

[Devolv]

IPD sells them for about $60 each. (http://www.ipdusa.com/Volvo-700/Exterior/Air-Intake-Vent-Covers/p-70-196-2920/)

[norcal505]

automatically when someone says their from sweden, you know their car is nicer than yours. :P

ps, ive seen your car before!

[Matt]

Ya know, I'm such an idiot. I knew I should have searched beforehand.

Seems that a lot of black 740Turbos are going T5 Power.

Look forward to your progress with it. My T5 install is coming along slowly but getting there.

[spruill745]

I would love to have one of those, they just look so sick. The wheels look great on them aswell.

[Denesfay]

Here are some pics. The engine is already sold. Except for the turbo, exhaust and some other things.

Send me a PM if it is available, please.
