![]() I love your dad's wheels! I had some 15" versions for a while... But they were mangled so I sold them. Here're some quick pics from this 35degree morning... Unlevel pavement, but you get the pictures.
![]() ![]() ![]() Damn those are some crappy pictures... I really need to clean my car again(stupid F'n construction RIGHT in front of my house, including in my damn driveway) and take some good pictures of it now.

![]() Hahaha, I love my ugly car, it's such a bastardization of parts. It's a really nice car to drive, just doesn't look so hot.
![]() Looks great from the back though! Sorta ![]() And here's an old picture of my car (different front end now as seen above), my brothers 242, and my eternal project silver wagon. There is an identical red 242 parts car right behind the 242 in that pic, hiding in the garage. ![]()

![]() Billiam 500, your 142 is beautiful. Very Euro and clean (nice bumpers) and green is such a good Volvo color. I almost threw up when I saw that rear ended picture... Nice job fixing it though.
I painted my car too, in my barn (my friend in photo, not me): ![]() ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Please show reverence for the WOW sticker. 1991 744T. 1994 b230ft, rebuilt longblock. M46, spec stage II hybrid (it squeals and I hate it). 15G from Herman. V15 @6*advance. Ipd sways and exhaust, Bilstein HD, Eurosporttuning springs. Volvo Comet wheels with Nokian WR's (A phenomenal all season; if you rack miles like me, it's a nice compromise; these tires are quiet and I drive them 80-110mph with no qualms on I-84 daily). Gilracing shift knob, Valentine 1. I was debating getting rid of it, but I'm going to get an M90 and keep it a few more years.

I remember seeing you pull out of the lot once at some point. Your dads friend in TC, does he have a bit of a volvo yard? Someone mentioned a volvo place near TC at one of the local BBQ events.

The wheels are 17x7.5" eiker polaris that i got from julio, unfortunately I bent two of them when I hit a nasty pothole, so for now I have black virgos until I come up with some money to straighten my eikers. It does not have an m46, yet, and the interior is blue ![]() Here are the pics of the wreck, as you can see the paint was peeling before. Last edited by dmcgee; 08-02-2008 at 11:35 PM.. |
