For anyone who owns a 240, this is an excellent tip on how to replace the starter without swinging the trans down! It's a lifesaver.

How about a little bit of race car in this feed? :)

We know everyone loves weird cars. This is definitely a weird car. It's a '78 260 that's been converted to an '85 240.... turbo.... truck.
It was done extremely well, and was put up for sale by the previous owner last year. Wonder if it ever sold? Check out the link for more pics and details on the build.

There's a guy in Norway, who apparently looked at a Volvo wagon and said "this s**t all needs to go". So he built this monster. Some highlights include Toyota running gear, a big turbo LS1, and massive metal modification.

These are some pretty awesome plans for a Rotary-powered 96 sleeper.

Sometimes, I just enjoy going back to the past and looking at classic concepts, but especially those coming from Sweden, like this Saab EV-1. It featured composite body panels which absorbed impacts and supposedly went back to their original shape and it had a roof of solar cells that cooled the car during hot summer days, the latter of which is a feature becoming more common on cars today.

It's great seeing how ahead of their time the Swedish were back in the day.

This is just s*x.

This pre-facelift New Gen 9-3 Sportcombi is sporting a modest lowering and some lovely Hirsch performance wheels. I do believe they suit it nicely, wouldn't you agree?

What's that? You want a BMW, but you're stuck with a Volvo? No need to worry. The engine fits. ;) Looks like an M20 in a 740. Looks like it's factory. ;)

I think I'm in love with 262C Bertones. This one is turbo, with a LOT of work in it. Check out the owner's Photobucket and see for yourself. Gives me tons of ideas for my wagon!
