I'm just curious what you guys think of my Volvo, comments welcome, just try to keep it civilized, and yes I love boxes :P, I have more plans to come this yr, since I spent most of the last yr fixing the car.

just click the link in my sig for pix.

 

Ahh, the 700-series!! One of my favorite Volvos of all time(and best of all its RWD!!). This one and the C70 CoupeHPT. Looks great. I see you take good care of it. Keep up the good work.

That has to be the thickest tire marks I have ever seen.

 

No doubt - that is a NICE example of a 700.

Keep it clean. I don't see too many of those on the road anymore.

thanks a lot for the comments.

I can't update the page for some odd reason, I think I have too many pix on my account, but I've got new managment system here, waiting to install it, t3/t4 turbo, basically I want to go tad bit lower than now, but what's stopping me are the shocks/struts, I keep bottoming out, I'm still looking ones with shorten internal rods, I've put in new rear end so far. Going to put some deep dish on the car this summer to give that Euro flava.

here are couple of pix of my favorite 700/900s, hopefully I can get my hands on the GS soon, the car is screaming at me "LOWER ME" constanly.

 

badass!

My bro and I used to share a 79 242 up until about 1997.

We put the 5.0 ford v8 in it, ipd springs, bars, euro headlights, 15" wheels. It was baaaaad. Got rid of it when I went to dental school and the bro got a job after college.

 

That's pretty good.

I've always loved the 700 series since it was known to be crash safe and reliable.

My favorite model is the rare 780 coupe of the early 90s.

I see that you're from Taiwan as well. The way that my parents and their friends used to call this marque Vu Lu Vu in Japanese style always cracked me up.

hey that volvo in orange, is it the same one those wheels look like my cousins wheels are they Leon Hardiritt

 

good to know there are more peeps from Taiwan


and that orange car's rims are called Kolster SuperStar, its a Swedish company, its rediculously expensive, its in the same price range as Cargraphic and HRE.

do you have pix of your cousin's rims? I'd love to get similar styles as those, but I'm not ready to spend such a huge sum on a set of rims.

 

Not bad, I love the old Boxy Volvos, you can spot them a mile away.

 

are there alot of aftermarket parts for those? I would have never guessed. Is it fast?
