I hated my wire covers aswell, I should've taken them off way earlier.
The "ghetto/beater" look lessened a bit just by cleaning and waxing the wheels with autoglym SRP.

I like how...

That's great to hear. Please do post pics when you get them mounted. And maybe one or two with the spaced out stock wheels?

Got the PNP-switch changed today. What a PITA, fiddly and tight as hell.

But now my reverse lights work again, also my shifter is way stiffer, which is fine, but the...

Today the Volvo came dangerously close to needing a jump. Might've had something to do with it being -24°C and not having used the block heater. Even my steering wheel, gauge cluster lens and...

Snow blows in weird ways for sure.

There's an Audi in this pic.

Has anyone here have had a starter freeze? Fun times.
Some time ago, a friend's Scania had the tractor flap freeze open,...

A heated windshield would be absolutely lovely in Finland, too bad that's only really on Fords. And I'm not getting a damn Mondeo for just that.
Or a box for that matter.

Do aeros and whales have...

A 1,5" spacer on +38 makes it basically a 0 offset. 38 millimeters is pretty much dead on 1,5 inches.

If you'd need the spacers on your Volare aswell, I'd justify getting fitting wheels all the...

From what I've read, 245s and up will rub a bit into the front fenders in bumps when turning. Maybe sway bar when full lock.

17x8 wheels with zero offset (4,5" backspacing), clears the front...

Could it be the seller is unaware of it? Or just knowingly bullshitting buyers? Dumb to include the AutoCheck whatever that is.

Seats look mint for 200k miles, weird that cali sun seemingly only...

I did exactly that already, top of last page. Tank has gotten brittle and small cracks are all around the bottom nipple, I slathered it generously with epoxy. Still the tank weeps from around the...

Today the Volvo didn't want to start. Got going after fucking with the shifter, the PNP switch seems to be dying completely. Good thing I ordered a new one yesterday.

Didn't order the expansion...

I'm only 21 and sometimes I wonder how I'm not dead yet, considering how I'm living life from time to time.
Even though I'm so young, I've lost quite many people from around me, every single one is...

Torsen diffs are nice, probably a bit more expensive than regular clutch type LSDs. Unlike those, torsens are full of cogs, gears and screws and don't really ever wear out. TrueTrac is somewhat...

I might not be in the US, but we got cold, snow, roadsalt and rust here too.
The Volvo has given me a handful of new issues due to the freezing temps, nothing unusual. There's a disctinct difference...

After some more reading, the PNP switch isn't by the shifter, but in the engine bay, attached on top of the transmission. Many sources say it can be rebuilt, but equally as many say it won't work for...

It was only -11°C today so figured I'll check in on the handbrake.
The drivers side top spring had removed itself halfway, causing the shoes to rattle around. Popped it back in back in and adjusted...

Volvo is getting jealous about me looking for other cars online.

The handbrake broke, doesn't hold at all. Something's gone loose on the left side and the brake shoes go clunk-clunk-clunk. I have...

I'd start with trying out different mufflers and/or resonators, if your exhaust isn't all welded together.
While sound deadening material is relatively inexpensive, it's really laborious to install,...

Do the exhaust tips end "outside" the body? Or atleast have turndowns at the ends. Exhaust noise can bounce around from the insides of bumpers and underbody panels, amplifying the drone. That's why...

There's thousands and thousands of cars for sale on there. They can't possibly all be active listings...
Just search up Country Squire and you'll find dozens of box wagons more

Well it isn't that hard to figure out 1/25th wheels and mounting them to the body. I guess one could make a undercarriage fit from anothe model. Shame there's no interior pieces at all.
Those are...

The resin model seller also has "1980" Grand Marq Tudor model for sale. Older style grille but no rear lights included and "normal" mirrors so it could technically be other than '80 :D

Nono your message was clear, didn't even think that my post could've made you think that I might have confused GM and grand marq :lol3:
I said GM as in General Motors, not really referring to your...

If my box was GM instead of a panther, nobody in the US car scene would give a shit at all. Mine happens to be a Mercury and a sedan, which makes it rare as fuck here. That's why it actually get's...

Well, the american car scene is by far the biggest and most pronounced. Other stuff, ehh... Maybe european and british cars come next in line. Old Citroëns, Volvos, VWs, british sports cars and such....
