well i heard about stanceworks @ fixxfest this year and have been checking out the forums since then.
figured i would post up some info on my car and its slow build into what i got....
info.....
1995 Volvo 850 turbo...wagon.
147k miles on the car.
automatic, FWD.
per Volvo hp should be 225hp @ the crank.
on with the story.
well before i got this car i had a 5.0 mustang, that was my pride and joy. gt40 heads, ford racing headers, and cai, 30lbs injectors, 410 rear end, etc etc etc. then the gas prices went up i was talking to a co worker that drove a hummer and they said they got 10mpg, then i said my mustang got 7mpg and I realized the car was no longer daily drivable....so i put an add on craigslist looking to trade it and that’s how i got the wagon.
Mustang
For this…..
It already had a nice 2 tone paint job. And the crazy body kit that was held together with zip ties and tape.
My first order of business was to clean her up real nice
Crack in rear bumper
Front all stuck back together….
So from what I was told…front was off a Mustang, sides are from an Astro and rear is from some kind of Acura.
Also the wheels are 17x7.5 Canistos…of a C70
Motor is a 2.3 turbo inline 5.
And wasn’t impressed by how dirty it was…
But I did like…the OEM carbon fiber spark plug cover…1 0f only 211 in existence…
end chapter 1. more to come....
