Volvo 122S Build Thread: Scope-creep the Sequel

Canuck said:
LOL - things that have been suggested include roof and the rear quarters...aside from all the whining that I didn't do the inside of the doors.

You'll have to stay tuned - some major things to do - how's a guy supposed to keep up with the Buchka's?

You're going to have to pull a rabbit out of a hat to keep up. Carbon engine block? Carbon Pistons?

Or you could actually drive your car one day and win by default :-P

Have I mentioned that you are a crazy person?

Loving the work and the videos. You do a great job with both.

When are we starting an "idiotic forever project car" support group?

Thanks Karl. I think we're all just a slight variation of the same person. We're all a bit nuts. I'd for sure join an "Idiotic forever project car" support group. I think I've been asked 1000 times "why Volvo" or "why not LS swap it" or the geniuses that work out that I spent more on carbon fibre than the car is worth.

They will never get it.
 
I had no idea that was your Youtube, recently subbed before seeing this build thread.

Wish you were in Ontario, I need some help with some floors! haha I have been watching your videos for motivation.

It's a small world. The entire YT thing was motivated by not being able to make reliable posts on this forum anymore. I'm sick of image hosting pirates.

Rolling along. Slowly.
 
Very impressive (content and video production) !

I have to watch some of your earlier videos - I need to figure out how to make a mold of my X1/9 custom nose :D
 
Making a little more progress!

Super slow progress. Working way too much and just no time or desire to sit in front of my computer and cut video. Expect a few more to come up in the next few weeks as I need to clear some backlogged footage.

Dang is that an original Volvo Vida/Vadis tough book? Or is it just a random tough book?

Nice progress so far!

Progress is progress! I finally got the shifter done the way I wanted in carbon fiber. I haven't made great progress in the past few months as work has gotten in the way of garage time. I have some extra time over the holidays to get a little more done. Intake is now done and I'm starting work on the turbo header. It's just killing me to find the time.

Some will hate it...but I like it and that's pretty much all that matters.
