yeah the kind of old skool volvos do look well but its very hard to find the body parts and most always cost a bomb for shipping from usa
That is cool, I'm really liking that
Hey Nath is this what your looking for ?
940 2.3 HPT 165 bhp Manual £595

or
740 2.3 Manual £385
http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk...=&max_mileage=
Both look like good donor cars :)
Although the 740 looks mint :B_thumb:

anyone know what a 740 or 940 saloon weighs in standard trim?
also, what sort of power would you get out of the "old" 2.3 turbo lump with a map, MBC and exhaust?
i,m seriously considering a swedish retro trackday/drag/drift project :mad111:
i used to have a 89 740 turbo with the b230ft engine with a mbc on it.
it was fun........:B_steerin:D
people now me i try my best in all the projects i do ,i dont know if you saw the black v70 2.5lpt i built justin saw it and that was a good spec. this car is abit different being rwd and only 8v but should be quick when done.all i have to say is custom rad,ic,turbo,cam,big valved head,rebuilt brakes,bottomend,solid flywheel,m90 box,g80locker diff,galaxy rims,new uprated suspension and polybushed alround,strut brace,3in custom ss exhaust with 100 cell race cat,custom samco hose set up in engine bay ,the car is black berry peral in colour and the wheels are crome black. i hope this gives you an idea what it will be like mate
sounds loads better than i imagined, please dont be offended by that :hidesbehi
smithy ... liking the sound of your 940 project, i am doing something similar with my lpt, just wondering where are you sourcing all the parts from and have you got any pics?
