Hey, I recognize that fountain! I almost ended up going to Clemson - it was my 1st choice had I not been accepted to VT.
Are you from NC or just venture up that way a bit?
Funny, I would have gone to VT if it wasn't out of state. Be glad you didn't go to CU. I hate it.
Also I'm from near ...

Re: The non-car related pictures thread
Great shots everyone! I've dabbled in it on and off. Most of my photography is automotive but I have some stuff that isn't...
EDIT: seems my pictures are too big, so I've posted a few links instead.

Re: April is jazz appreciation month
I listen to a lot of metal that incorporates jazz elements, but I don't listen to much actual jazz. I can definitely appreciate it though. The love and dedication of the musicians really shines through, and that's very important in any art.

Re: I've got a chance to buy a 780, good idea?
The engine is actually a secondary concern for now. I've got a good friend with a full machine shop and very high mechanical skill, so some crazy drivetrain that you've probably never seen in Volvo before is a possibility...if I could do it today, think big, nasty diesel of some sort

Re: I've got a chance to buy a 780, good idea?
I've actually wanted an E30 for the longest time, but I am just tired of seeing them. It seems like every other car at the weekends I work is an E30. I want something different. I'm not really concerned with going fast, I'm just in it for a bit of fun.

Re: I've got a chance to buy a 780, good idea?
I haven't quite decided anything yet, still waiting to graduate. The car is just sitting and no one is actively trying to sell it so I'm sure it will still be there in a couple of months.
It will be for road courses. If I stay in the Southeast, tracks like Carolina Motorsports Park, Road Atlanta ...

Re: Charlotte NC to Road Atlanta april 30th.
I need to make it to that someday, but unfortunately I'll be working at Carolina Motorsports Park that weekend. Maybe next year!

I've got a chance to buy a 780, good idea?
Hey all. I was talking to a local Volvo mechanic a few weeks ago who normally has an assortment of cars for sale, and he just happened to have a derelict 780 sitting behind his shop. I am always fond of rare and obscure cars, so the 780 has an obvious draw for me. I was looking for a 240, but the ...

Prospective Volvo owner, thought I would say hi
Hey all, Rob here. I'm looking to pick up a 240 in the next few months. Immediately the car will just be a beater to supplement my somewhat newer Civic, but I hope to eventually turn it into a track car for amateur road racing/time trialling. I figured I'd go ahead and sign up and start doing some ...
