More progress on the 2000 GLT's engine today. Got the cam cover resealed (because of course it had been redone with RTV by some dope), timing belt, cam seals, water pump, and PCV. I also put the intake manifold on, so all I really need to do now is change a couple hoses (turbo coolant hoses and an o...

Wait , where did this one come from ? Have you posted pictures? It’s not a contest , but I hereby match your Mystic Silver with a V70.. Back to you, Bought it back in September/October I think? I don't even remember, I have too many cars, haha. With the new X3, our driveway is up to 9 cars... this ...

Had just enough of the yellow ones to get it all installed, but was shy 4 to get it completely clipped in. I could use 6, probably, I’ll be removing it all again at some point to freshen up the finish on the rails and drip molding. Let me know how many of the yellows you’ve got. Thanks, brah I have...

Misha, you know this because of the wheels?

I'm thinking the tach... the numbers are pretty widespread.

Robert will catch up to that soon enough! I love seeing these high mileage P80s.

Can you take some photos of the V70 you worked on? Have you already? Video too. If you have time/access and if the owner ok's it of course. Or... he's on here... I'll email him and ask this. This entire post is me thinking out loud. I'm sure he has some or can take some. Here's one from last year w...

Looks good! Nice color too!
