Even if you turned it into a wagon it would still have that slushy slushy slushy box....

Welp figured since the t6-r sold, I'm going to finish my car, added an xc grill I got at junkyard for 20 bucks and got the bumper painted. Eventually I will get that s60 but for now, she is looking good.

Beautiful car, Have 99 T5 as well. Live Downtown Dallas on Main. I am in the same boat with mine, just put 1K in it to fix everything and put new tires on it. Mine has 160K. Now dash mounts are broke. Im going to fix and keep driving.

If there is ever a weekend gathering let me know. Would be glad to lend a helping hand to those in need.

Relatively new Texan here. Can I ask where you got those seats? They're better than any tan seats I've seen. My charcoal leathers are in good shape for a quarter-million miles, but the driver's side is starting to crack.

Do you ever make it out to the Austin Cars and Coffee meet? Second Sundays of each month. It's a neat event.

Beautiful. Just curious -- how much did it cost to repaint the bumper? My front bumper needs paint too.

I got the seats out of a pristine s70 at the LKQ Junkyard for about 70$ I think. I haven't made it out, any Volvo's there? I'd be interested. Send me a message and let me know!
