This is my 2000 V40. Purchased last year bone stock with 102K on the clock. Only mods are straight pipe to silencer, lowering springs, and 18" Velocity Redlines with 35 series rubber bands. Of course I continue to have other plans but want to take it easy so the wife does't nag too much. Take care everyone. See you around the boards.

Califoria is good to those old cars. Is that your 69 Pony?
I am not an expert mechanic, but I will attempt any repair. Worst case scenario is I screw it up worse than it was.

^ haha nice.

Anyways, picked up a C70.
2.4T with a 16t, white injectors, and an ipd stage 1 tune.
This is for the wife ;) cant have her driving around in a slow car after all.

Flew up to boston MA, and drove it home to Orlando FL. LONG trip, but well worth it.
2k for an awesome car.
Needs work, and you can bet ill be posted later tonight about a couple of them, but none of it requires buying new parts :D so ive got some time to put in.

Bought a month ago. The stickers have since come off, and it's been washed and I attempted polish it but the spray on turtle wax didn't seem to do much.
