The Quest to Stance a Volvo

[JVC]

That's a nice shot.

Are you keeping the rake?
Looks good!

It's not as raked as it looks, it's more so because the rear bumper is much shorter (vertical height) than the front with the lip, and the fender arches are at different heights, it's pretty close to even, maybe a tiny bit of rake though.

That's a real nice car you got there! It being a T5 is the icing on the cake! I'm heading away to Australia for a year, IF I come back I fancy a T5 Volvo, but I'm hoping to stay out there. Ireland is pretty crap to be honest. I always wanted an 850, either red, black, charcoal, or that nice burnt orange colour. Have you trial fitted the wheels? I'm assuming you already rolled your arches/fenders?

Google the Volvo 850 BTCC cars (British Touring Car Championship). The Volvo 850 BTCC cars were pretty damn low and ran 18 or 19" wheels sitting right up inside the rear fenders!!

Fenders have been rolled, and fender liners were removed as well. I haven't truly test fit the wheels since I cant bolt them on without adapters, I held them up but that barely counts.

Yeah, those things sat nasty... but of course that was pretty much a one off tube frame.

and here's on REAL picture I took earlier today after waking up to MORE snow.

Haha thanks dude! I've been very slow on this build as well. I haven't had motivation/money to spend on it so it's sitting still for the most part. Just being used as a daily driver and no recent mods. Can't wait to see what you do with the 855!
