Jesus thats a nice set up. Very

slick!

your car is damn nice and very clean! Too bad its not a 2-door and has poop tan interior (i'm not

a big fan of tan)... otherwise it'd be just about my favorite Volvo on the board! Its very asethetically

pleasing and I'm sure its quite fast too. I love the look of the front end!

KUDOS!

Hey Noah,

your car is dope... Just

looking at your wheels makes me mad. (The previous owner of my 242 didn't ever clean the wheels. So they look

like ass.) I love the white, the corbeaus, the BOV... hey, did you notice anything from that install?

THanks for all the nice comments

guys....
Yeah I'd like to convert over to black interior some day, but it doesn't bother me too much. I

know that my car has lots of little fancy goodies and not much in the power dept. But I'm working on a new

engine right now, I've already got the head rebuilt and the block, crank and rod's are sitting here waiting for

a clutch and pistons, then it'll all go in for a little blue printing and re bore.
The momo wheel is a

"competition", 350mm I think, it was about 160 for the wheel and about 45 for the hub. It's really neat to

hold onto, makes you think your driving a race car... Oh wait a minute!
I got the whole B.O.V and custom bent

steel pipe for 50 bucks! What a deal that was, After it was installed, I did notice an improvement in lag between

shifts, plus it just sound's dam cool! Really turns heads through town. Thanks to you all for

making my day!

Sweet car man. I also have the phantom

series autometer guages as well as the gts2 corbeau seats. Volvo owners have great taste.

I like the boost gauge mount, the AutoMeters

look sweet IMHO. Ditto on the Barton whitefaces. Sometimes I wish I had a tan interior again, and a white

car...it made summers without AC so much more tolerable.

That is definately one clean, smooth lookin'

volvo... you should take it down a dirt road/feild and get it all dirty ... lol... but seriously, you

did a really nice job. I'd be tempted to switch over to a black interior though.

This is my buddies car, and I'll tell you guys

that this is a damn fine automobile I must say!!!
Mine needs ding removal, paint and some better

bumpers like the 83' and up, then it might be equal to Noah's. I wish my car was nice enough to show off, maybe

I can take some distance shots near dusk to make it look ok
