Still much more to be done looks-wise. Need to re-polish the left side and put a good coat of wax on it, match the underside plastic things...one is gray and one isnt there, wanna get better headlights, maybe E-codes, +T it and i'll be happy.

that's when i just got the car last month, only thing now is that it's clean and it's got a pair of fuzzy dice :badboy:
 
1990 244 Dl (56k dangerous)

OK, so here it is, a 1990 244 DL with some bling added. The car is dirty as it hasn't been washed in awhile due to drought restrictions. What has been done so far:

IPD Turbo Exhaust
K&N Filter
Caliper Paint
Virgo Rims
Turbo Swaybars
Poly Swaybar Bushings
Pacesetter Exhaust Tip
Bilstein Touring Shocks & Struts
B&G Sport Springs
Tachometer
52mm Clock
VX Cam (not in car yet, in trunk waiting for warmer weather)
Volvo Spoiler (Zenders)
52mm Oil Pressure Gauge
White Guage Faces
Raging Moose decals (yet to be put on, will go on ala Ferrari, front quarter fenders above the side marker lights)

Here are some pics:

White gauge faces:

Front quarter view:

Rear quarter view:

Driver side view:

The thing that bugs me the most is the spoiler, it isn't on quite right and it seems too narrow.

Hope you like.

I can't wait until the spring to try out the Hydras on the 960, should look (and handle) a lot better.

I don't think Hydras are the right offset for that car; that would not be a good thing for handling.
 
Lord, that's HOT! Looks great! And Natural, that car looks very familiar... Hehehe, check my sig.

EDIT: Oh, and did you do something to your turn signals?

It's a '94 960, so it has Multi-link I rear suspension, the 700/940 style front suspension, and the 700/940 offset. In my understanding the Hydras will fit just fine. My V90 has Multi-link II and the FWD offset.

I think they should fit, its just the 95+ 960s that have the fwd offset

The only reason the spoiler is too narrow is that you have the bigger trunklid. Try a pre 86 one

:freak:

That doesn't make any sense. Did you mean pre-'79 lids?
