Re: Let's see your Volvo (The Photo Thread)

Yeah all the vendors sent me stickers, but I didn't know where to put them. So since she's a bit of a sleeper, I figured under the hood would be a good place. :) Now as to that plate; It's a very unique one. It is the 161st " environmental " plate ever issued in AZ. I believe it was '93 or...

Re: Mold removal from complete interior

I've done some research and have a plan to clean the car: 1. Vacuum the surfaces to remove dirt and loose mold. 2. Use a steam cleaner to sterilize the surfaces. 3.
