Best Volvo Ever!
 
I'm getting one for my next project. Take an old ugly ass Volvo and make it haul some ass! Steve, I might have to hit you up because you always seem to be able to get some old turbo Volvos!

I've dreampt of building a 740 sedan for a long time. Unfortunately, the Talon is project enough for me.

Some day...

If you pick on eup to build, I'd love to help if I can. It would just be so much fun!

I used to have a volvo 240. I only had it for a couple months because it was turning into a piece of crap and I didn't want to deal with it. It would have been fun to stick a V8 into though. (Or a turbo something.)

Yea I had a dream of finding a 242GT 2 door coupe and stuffing a nice v8 in there. That would own, maybe someday if I ever find one... way too rare.

Too bad the 850s are FWD, otherwise those would be a sweet daily driver.

Volvo inline 5s make me smile, I really want to get my hands on an S40 T5.

Damn good volvo!

The S70 sedans are getting pretty cheap now and they came in a turbo AWD flavor. It wouldn't be too tough to soup up.

Re: Best Volvo Ever!
 
What about an older one that comes boosted, looks old and ugly, and is dirt cheap?

The 850T cars are really nice and cheap. The 850T-5R is the nice one to have.

That thing is F'n Sweet. 740 station wagon, thats the 1 to get!!!

93-94 850 turbos are FWD, but are cheap, I've seen some around $1000 with a decent body. The R is always sweet, but don't expect to get one of those cheap. Besides, they have the same turbo, the R just runs more boost. You can get a "upgrade kit" for the old 850's that boost them up to 270 horsepower, that's why it's cheaper to just get the regular 850 and maybe throw some R badges on it and the R front bumper and rear spoiler.

Ohhhh, we may have to talk sometime! I just gotta get someone to go in on the project with me! Project FUGLY I could call it...

Well, I'd be down to clown on a volvo project car. I could contribute some money, maybe we should have the DSMStyle.com project car: an old turbo vulva. I mean volvo. But I've got a t3 sitting around, or a semi turbo, but that's already headed toward a certain buick skylark. T'would be fun times had by all.

Super Bleeder!! 09-25-2006 12:27 PM

Re: Best Volvo Ever!
 
i also have a t3 sitting around, from an 86 300zx turbo.

FattyBoomBatty 09-25-2006 12:28 PM

Re: Best Volvo Ever!
 
Let's make a twin (or somewhat close in size) turbo volvo with megasquirt fuel only. maybe we could swap a v8 from an old chevy into it or something. maybe a diesel engine from a mack truck. anything really.

I think most Chevy V8 blocks bolt right up to the volvo transmissons!

Kinda off topic but which one is the new Volvo with the square cut outs on the folds in the hood and sweet look aero kit

A//// Guy 09-25-2006 11:13 PM

Re: Best Volvo Ever!
 
Thats an aftermarket body kit made for the S60R.

CornFed2.4 09-25-2006 11:30 PM

Re: Best Volvo Ever!

Something about that thing just makes me think if the Grim Reaper had a car it would be one of those.
