New trip to the pnp since there was a new c70 listed.

Got me some of these goodies.
Also wanted to grab the horse shoe subframe brace, but the forklift damaged it, as they move the cars around lifting it up from the undercarriage.

What a waste.

I have both sections of the C70 frame stiffeners. Bought them and then when I had time to check found they don't fit an AWD V70R!

At some point I have to get rid of them, but always liked the idea of an 850R wagon, but that is just a dream for a while. Good luck and I hope you manage to find another one.

I wonder of those stiffeners would fit in checked luggage.

It’s free if you use it as a walker.

Awesome!! And I’ll be identified as one of those passengers needing extra time to make it down the jetway

In Mainz Got up at 0600 local, quick breakfast at 0700, 0715 Uber XL to partners hotel, loaded three pelican cases and three suitcases and headed to Frankfurt airport, arrive 0800

Two of us gorillas cases to checkin. 8 hour flight back to EWR, caught up on sleep ftom week.

Faithful Elizabeth waited for me in spot 307, and eased my way through moderate traffic on the Verrazano bridge, the belt, and southern parkway home. About 2.5 hours ftom landing.

Yesterday I replaced the wiper arms on the gray 850. I used the pair from my red v70. Different path to get there. The wiper blades still sit in the same place. I know I still have to fix a small coolant leak from the heater core connection. Bastard!

Today I sold my red Toyota as planned. I think I'm going to aim for a like new white 850. If I do, I'll be sure to video the interior accessory setup. I want to reveal a special rare item I purchased on eBay. It will blow

your mind. Useless but so cool. My heart might've skipped a beat. Lol I guess my trailer thread is not the only place to keep y'all salivating for the next cool thing.
