Hello,
Thats cool...are you talking about an all volvo meet? Where would this be at and around when...springtime? I know prolly 5-6 nice bricks from this area.
Have you taken your car to the strip/ or dyno, I am planning on running mine next year and so is my friend with the 80 242. He is getting corbeaus sometime soon, I forget which model but I sat in them and they seemed pretty nice and that aint that much. Oh aint that aint my sig I had it a while a go on my project282 name but I dont post with that one anymore.
Any other plans for your car over the winter? I just swapped the ecu, injectors and wiring harness in mine and am in the process of getting it to run again, but I have no time either. Anyway...Im out. Later, Jo

well, i'd figure we'd do a "Volvo et al meet" i know we could get at least 20 modded bricks out, and probably a bunch of other fuel freaks from the area.
No more mods this winter for me, i've dropped a bunch in getting the car running well again plus i need to pay off a huge loan before i start building my new motor. I still need new seats and possibly a new exhaust since mine is pretty much trashed, but thats about it until summer (maybe some new wheels if i save some loot by dumping my g/f lol)
