All,
This car isn't for sale anymore.
I have to get rid of it NOW, plus I don't have time to spend the next year sorting & pricing parts, dealing with tire kickers or running around mailing stuff. Unfortunately, it's getting sold by the pound at this point.

Re: Parting out 1995 850 Turbo Project - Lots Of Pictures
wheelsup, Good afternoon. I'm in the Northern Neck area of Virginia, about an hour north of Newport News. The $500 price includes the car and all the parts shown in the pictures. As I mentioned, I have a clean title for it. I take cash. PM me. I think you'd be better off using one of the U-Haul car ...

Parting out 1995 850 Turbo Project - Lots Of Pictures
All, Events both good and bad have brought me to this: I'm parting out my 860R project. You know how it goes: Life gets in the way of your ambitions, and sometimes in moving ahead, you have to cut things loose. So here we are. The 1995 854 Turbo I was installing an S60R engine and a manual conversio...

Re: Opinions on best exhaust joint cement
What exactly is JB Weld? Is it epoxy? How does it bond with oil-imbedded aluminum or cast iron? It's a steel-impregnated epoxy resin. You can repair cracked engine blocks with it. You can even drill and tap it. It's the super glue of the car world. The ambitious make entire engine blocks out of it.

Re: Nevada1906 1995 850 S60R m56 build thread
This is looking incredible! I would suggest you may want to wrap the coil and VVC wires over the head to help protect from the heat. Even using the split corrugated cable cover would help. Cars came with this originally so I can only assume it was for this reason in the decade of decomposing wiring...

Careful - those things are fragile. I've broken several nipples off two of them.

I would replace any plastic wire loom that shows any signs of deterioration. They will never get any easier to reach. Use only high temperature rated loom. volvolugnut I agree. From what I can see, the wiring itself looks solid. There don't seem to be any breaks in the insulation, the colors are al...
