first car, volvo 240 wagon

[teejsauce]

my wagon got a little lower and had some changes this year, built a roof rack, clear corners, round headlights and spacers on the back wheels





been working on my 242GT project, getting ready to put the new engine in once I buy a new clutch.

I'll start a thread on here once I get the GT running/make it look cool but heres a link to its thread on turbobricks if anyone wants to see whats going on

[teejsauce]

[Dueyferg]

Keep the steelies! I like it.

It looks sexy on those winer rims, I would stick with those if I was you..

Maybe give them a little bit of lip and job done!

[teejsauce]

well this is probably gonna be the last update to this dope epic build.

im keeping this car as a daily but im not gonna put anymore money into it. probably chop a coil in the back and leave it like that

stop crying. dont be so sad. im getting a cooler project car this weekend and doing a real build

Car looking good man. Part of me still wishes I had a wagon. Sorry to hear yours has to brave a winter. Mine is all barned up, and hard to work on as a result . You live in the NE?

[teejsauce]

winter wheels on


the back is going to come down more but first I need to make my panhard bar adjustable..
maybe over the winter ill save up for some coilovers as if i was one of them real boys

[teejsauce]

got a set of mint 16" style 5's today for next summer...will have much smaller tires.. probably 205/40 or 195/40

[teejsauce]

so my trailing arm was rusted out where the spring sat...

forgot to take a picture but i just got it cut out and a piece of steel welded in its place and istalled the new springs/shocks

this is how the front sat after getting all the rear stuff in...

...so i cut like 1.5 coils off..

better






..just got these center caps a week ago and 2 already fell off.....

[teejsauce]
