[quote I collected my Volvo sign from the powder coater yesterday, he tried 3 times to apply two colours but had trouble getting a crisp line so gave me it back in silver and I sprayed some blue onto it today, I also had trouble with the line but once the paint has hardened I should manage to remove...

That is WAY cool !

Good find !

That is a really great find! I think somewhere I still have a early 1990's Volvo booster cushion I've had for over 30 years.

I'm still trying to find the plastic P80 'nose cone' for winter driving. It attaches to the hood grille.

You find the coolest stuff for your gem 850. At some car show, someone will know everything about that bear and be glad to tell you.

The speedo on my 2001 reads about 10% faster than the actual GPS-measured speed. It's weird because AFAIR the wheels and tires currently on the car are the factory original ones according to VIDA.
I guess that makes the car seem faster, which is a good thing?

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Just finished up a comprehensive and lengthy 3 day full detailing of my car, complete with carpet and seat removal and shampooing, console removal and disassembly to remove latent coffee spills over 21 years, and addressing minor other issues like wet passenger floor and reskinning the driver's seat...

Nice job indeed!

Neil.

Just don't get it dirty fer gawds sakes!

Car is stunning as always!
