Before we dive too deep into this project, allow me to introduce myself to those who don't know me. My name is Decklan. I'm 26 years old and I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I've been kicking around tb for 10 years or so, and on ClubVolvo before that. I've built a few cars over the years, but I have never done a proper build thread.
My 85 245 that has been in my family since new and mine since '02

I've never really done a project thread for any of my cars before. Being broke and in high school, and then broke and in college, my timeline was always extremely slow. I always figured nobody really cared, so I never bothered, except to post a pic here and there. I have taken a great amount of inspiration from this community over the years. I feel like it's time for me to finally give back. I hope this thread helps somebody in some way or serves as inspiration like many other build threads did for me.
