See my Ebay listing for more pics: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... _668wt_923

Up for sale is my 1998 Volvo S70 T5. This has been my project car. I have put a lot of upgrades into it, that I will detail below, in preparation for an eventual IPD Stage III Kit (http://www.ipdusa.com/products/8559/106 ... -t5-models ). It now needs a new head gasket and cams (which I was going to have to do if I upgraded to the IPD Stage III Kit anyway) but now I no longer have the time to devote to it nor the space to store it until I do have time.

159,000 miles
automatic with Winter, Economy, and Sport modes
Front Wheel Drive (Put her in Winter Mode and she is like a tank in the snow! I have tried and failed to get her stuck!)
Leather seats
Heated front seats
Moonroof/Sunroof

The interior is in very good condition with one minor tear in the leather on the driver's side.
The exterior has some minor dings and scratches, but nothing major.

Here is what I have done for her thus far:

-IPD Performance Stainless Steel Intercooler
-IPD Performance Reverse Intercooler Piping Kit
-IPD Short Ram intake.
-Complete new cooling system including new radiator, water pump, thermostat, and silicone hoses
-New Secondary Air Pump and hoses
-Sew SAS valve
-Magnetic oil pan drain plug
-New Air Guide/Splash Pan
-Upgraded Heavy Duty Turbo Compressor Bypass Valve
-New radio head unit (stock)
-recent alignment and new brakes all around
-New front passenger side tire
-Newer rear tires
-New battery
-and much more!

What's Wrong:

-Like i said above, it needs a new engine head gasket and cams. If you do this yourself, you can save a lot of money. The parts are fairly inexpensive; it's the labor that's a killer.
-only one speaker works. I thought it might be the head unit so I replaced it with a new one (stock) It is either the wiring or the speakers (most likely the wiring because they would go in and out).
-needs new front driver's side tire.

I am asking $2000 or best offer. Let me know if you are interested or have any questions!

Moved you to the "for sale" section. Good luck with the sale.

Might want to upload some pictures to the ad, since it says the Ebay link is broken.

Why does it need cams?
