that a hilarous trip, from one tbrickers land to another
looks sick!
and may I say your 244 is a BEAST.
i wish i could get me a set of compos :(

[Vee_Que]

Very nice on both counts there, love the rims on the 244, and the 242 is in very good condition too.

[240ft]

Thanks :)

Compo is very hot on 240!

[v-speed]

Full circle.
Sweden to USA to Norway

[boostdemon]

yeah, try finding a 242 in scandinavia :lol: $$$
i've seen piles of 242s get tossed into the junkyard but over there i've seen piles of rust come back to life cause you cant just buy the next one on craigslist

[Strittan]

Very nice, looks really fresh! :)

[240ft]

Thanks, guys!

I need intercooler pipes for my B21FT... Both sides!

Which wreckyard do you recomend?

Funny, I looked at that very same car about two years ago.

[RedFridge]

So..If I started filling shipping containers with 242's to Norway...what would I get for one in USD?

Sweet ride. Oregon misses it.

[TurboBrickMan]

Sweet ride man. Love how everything there is a sheet of ice.

[240ft]

He, he... Old Volvos is very popular here in scandinavia :)

[700volts]

Looks like my car.....can't wait to get mine back on the road.

Nice cars!

[240ft]

Thanks! Post some pictures of your car :)

[lbaranyk]

Very clean. Any plans?

[240ft]

Same engine as my other Volvo (B230FT), black leather seats, and flathood perhaps. Re-paint the body because of the sun...

Hello!

Stay tuned!

Dude, did you arrange the import yourself? How did you go about it? Ship freight? How much was shipping? How did you arrange everything? Details, god is in details?

Really nice looking car! :nod:

Aha yeah, tell me about it. Older, pre 1985 cars(the best looking ones), be they 242, 244 or 245, are hard to get in good, rust free condition.

[240ft]

Thanks dude!

I bought the car from a norwegian who have experience with import of cars. It came with boat to Norway...

This is an rust free 242 Turbo :cool:

[JW240]

very nice :-D

keep it rust free! I would re-apply the whole original rust protection (underbodycoating and wax in frame rails etc).

Good, rust free 242's are hard to find here too. It hurts to see so many cheap 242's in the USA, we want them too!

[700volts]

Thanks! Post some pictures of your car :)
Don't want to clog your thread but since you asked....just got the rear suspension all back in the car last weekend, now time for the front. Another '83 from Oregon!!

I will restore the car 100%. It will never be used in the winter...

Mind sharing where you got those Compo's?

Very nice car, good to see it made it back somewhere near home!

It came with a boat?!? Pics! :P Just kidding mate, sorry if making fun of your English offended you.


I prefer the flathood look x573459365647604.

[240ft]

He, he... It`s okay :) I don`t care.

Yeah, I think flathood will be perfect :-P

Is this the same grill as the "flathood-grill" above?

[700volts]

[wisturbo]

:rockon: white grill looks way nicer with silver paint, just it keep clean, no hideous stickers pleeeeeease.
