Yeah these seats and interior arent the standard tan but more of an olive greensish tan. Its raining today, so while I dont mind getting greasy, sweaty and dirty in the junkyard, I never go there when its raining, its always so muddy and I hate trying to keep myself and tools wet. But for the price of what I pay for an entire leather power seat with airbag $40 total its easier to swap an entire seat than it is to undo all the hog rings and replace the skins. I will report which route I take.

Well the hood that was on the 99 that was on the back of the flatbed towtruck turned out to be flawless so a couple days after replacing the hood with a better hood, I replaced that with an AMAZING hood, at still less than the price of spraying a hood. I also used the XC70 grill along with the XC rails, I also tinted the car, i think it looks great as a V/XC70.

While I did get several inquiries from forum members, this is what she looked like today when I sold her to a cute, young Volvo driver from Austin for $3400. I feel like she went to a good home.
