One of our Icelandic members from ~'04, it just looks like such a simple manifold, makes it look do-able for the average guy.

One of our members, can't remember who right now, I wanna say like a mideast coast area guy, yellowbrick or redbrick or something, just a gorgeous car. Sold me on flathood and 7" rounds.

One of our own members! This was back in like '03 when the common misconception was that "an intercooler too big will cause massive turbolag.." 10 points to whoever can guess who this is.

I think this was Noah's interior from his white 244.

This was one of my first volvo loves, I printed this pic out in 2003 and taped it to the wall behind my computer as a constant source of inspiration to what's achievable. Then a few weeks ago I actually saw the car at a local car show! The guy from EuroSportTuning built it as a high school project back in the late 90's, and it still looks beautiful.

"Blue Danger", this one got taped to the wall too!

Amazing post John.

That black 242 with e 960 motor from bilsport- you haz it!

http://www.cravingboost.com/cars/awe...%20article.jpg

So I spend the past 2 hours searching through pics and posting that for you guys, yet I can't seem to find the time to post the sweet stuff that I'm working on. Dunno what's wrong with me.

Here is the project tread, yes its the same car http://www.bilforumet.no/200-serien/...vo-242-r6.html

That's Kenny with the big old I/C...

Holy crap! Thank you!

And Phil gets the prize, that's me standing in front of JB's car, at least half cut too. :rofl:
Drunken parking lot intercooler mockup FTW.

See I didn't even know that was JB's car, all this time I thought you had a silver 242 at one point but you never mentioned it.

KTP has a car?

LOL actually that IS my car. I had an '84 242Ti, and that is it.

JB's is an '80GT and a lot nicer than that hoopty.

not a 240, but inspirational nonetheless

Damnit I want a 240 now.

I had some really good pics of that 740 but I decided not to post them, that car is well done.

If anyone could supply me with any more pictures or info on this car that'd be very much apreciated.:)

wow, this thread is totally, and completely full of win.
I mean, this thread is entirely pure 'want'.

if i was at my desktop computer right now, I would start uploading my hundreds of garaget finds.
