Brian Fleming · Post by **Brian Fleming** » 14 Oct 2002, 18:19

hello everyone! I've just gotten my dad's old volvo, which he never really took to liking, but i've always loved it. It's a '96 850 Turbo, and I am 100% posotive that i want to work on it. I've been looking at getting some ground work (body kits), mostly from Erebuni, and probably a touring fin on back. I like the gun metal rims from Volvo, and will probably get the car painted black, b/c that's my favorite color. The only problem is that i'm slightly new to cars and I need some help. I don't really know how much all this will cost and How to get it all. Also any other suggestions for making this the most bitchin' car ever would be appreciated....

i was also thinking about lowering it some?? i don't wanna scratch it up though...meh.

if you can help me w/ where to get this stuff, or how much you think it will cost, it would be great...

thanks!

For the lowering parts, I'd go to www.ipdusa.com http://www.ipdusa.com

My guess is they are the biggest suppllier of lowering springs/shocks for 850s, although all you need to lower it really is the springs.

For the rest, shop around, and ask questions

Let us know how it turns out please.
