SIPS in action

Hi everyone, so a few weeks back i got into a fairly bad crash in the trusty v70 and i was very impressed with the SIPS technology.

I can be a parts node for Ontario (near Toronto), I have a bit of space up north where i store some volvos so one more won't hurt. Distribution wise I'm located right near a Purolator and Fedex distro centre. I have a few parts cars and may be able to part with some items.
