same car. first he had a whiteblock, now 16v turbo

i had no idea 1 thread could hold so much win... i'm now rethinking everything my parents ever told me.

I remember reading that somewhere too -- something about smog laws/DMV laws in Sweden that made the 16v easier to register than the 6 cyl or something. Either way, both versions of that car are incredible. However I'm quite partial to the 16v iteration.

Just everything about this car makes me all giggity.

I LOVE that car. It literally made me go up.

Honestly 100% this picture from JTR made me get into volvos...

Yeah, I get all short of breath and flustered every time I look at it :oops:

Love this one too -- I've had that one saved on the hard drive for years now. :nod:

i don't think my brick could ever look like that much fun :roll:

OMG! A steering quickener!!! GASP! Can't believe he drives it with that?!!

What does that do? Turn the wheels "quicker" I am assuming? So its probably really touchy?

I know, right?!?! His mullet must be rockin'! :-P

Yup, another solution instead of a quick rack. Rob is poking fun because Adrian posted a thread about quick ratio racks and mentioned several times that quickeners were only for mullet heads. Well, not those words exactly, but you know.

With a car that clean, maybe not? :e-shrug:

Dude he mods a volvo in sweden. You know many times he seriously thought of airbrushing some giant nordic fantasy scene on the hood, but then found some imported Coors and waxed it instead?

I can't draw, but I have an idea of what I want locked up in my head. It's always been there since I owned the 240. Cam, you helped me get partway towards realizing that vision, and in fact, you helped me leap frog about 2/3rds of that process. And for that I thank you.
I found photos I saved from the very first email from Dan... Gave me goosebumps and I got all excited just like the first time. I went out five minutes later to the driveway and washed her down. :)

I can't find a picture of the car that started me off on Volvo's. It was my neighbors 1800es. Actually he had 2 and I haven't been the same since.

There was a Black 240 sedan in bilsport years ago, I used to have the article in PDF, can't remember if it was 2 doors or 4, with a twin turbo 6. Definitely an inspiration to me...

Brett wtf are you babbling about?

He's trying to get all emotinal and spiritual with his car interest. lol

I hope this thread doesnt turn into another thread where everyone posts their gay ass 240s.

SO.MUCH.HOT.SH1T....

oh my!!

That settles it. You are officially my favorite TBricks member. :rofl:

Yeah I agree. Can we get a mod on board that promises to delete any and all posts that "feature" members stock 240s rolling on "refinished" virgos? Seriously.

Inspiration for my turbo!

That front end setup is awesome, too bad it's illegal for me to do that here.

I won't let it happen. I hate when these devolve into "my hooptie is my inspiration - check it out!" threads.

Hmm... is that a US car Jordan? I'm guessing it is located in sweden due to it's straight sexyness.
