Post pics of your Volvo.

A two-fer. Both a pic of one of my Volvos, and a mugshot... And, yes, it looks like a mugshot...

Getting it prepped for slumber. Got the interior wiped down, now I just have to dust and detail the outside before I throw the cover over it.

How does that rear dust deflector mount? Screwed in? Clamped in on the tailgate?

1994 945T - Installed interior trim pieces from a '95+ 960 as well as leather seats from a 1994 960 as they are higher quality than those found in the 940. Also has wood trim from a 1998 European 940.

Have been slowly modifying it with IPD sway bars, strut braces, overload rear springs, Bilstein HD shocks, aluminum front control arms w/ Super Pro bushings, 16T turbo,IPD cam, modified exhaust manifold, early 960 oil cooler ( under radiator )so installed early style oil cooler / filter adapter with custom fabricated oil lines, might chip the ECUs, enlarge the exhaust and find a rear spoiler.Has the late 960 tailgate handle, tail lights and wiper and a set of door handles waiting to be installed, assuming I can get away with it as a Collector car. Have been putting off purchasing a pair of Euro signal lenses so that I can install the Euro headlights I have had stored for two years, about time I got rid of those almost useless plastic DOT versions!


Purchased a well maintained NA 1999 V70 for 500.00 that needed a transmission due to coolant contamination which will allow me to park the 945 which is eligible for collector plates next year ( 25 years ). Not too many late 945T in very good condition left so I decided not to subject it to too much driving, especially in the Winter.


I now find myself playing around with the V70, found a rear spoiler for it and might change out the current 15" alloys for a set of 16"other than preventative and general maintenance I do not plan on doing much else though one never knows.

Is that good or bad?

The bracket is a narrow U-shape that folds over the upper edge of the tailgate and is held in place by a small set screw.

If she said yes to a 740, she's brave.

My 130k mile 850 GLE that I bought earlier this year for $1200. Neglected maintenance is up to snuff now.

Very cool. Wish I could find one of those over here! Most of the ones I've seen are for SUVs and drill through the tailgate...

Most of the Swedish guys who sell E codes also sell the rear deflectors too.

You drive that on the sand?... oh wait you didnt

My 1979 245 DL.

^Interesting eyelids/visors on the headlamps. Should bring the car to Issaquah on the 10th of February. That's when the XXX All-Swedish Cruise-In meet occurs.

Anyway, still in the garage, but looking more complete...
