Post by **special** » 30 Apr 2005 07:16 am

hi ive not been active for a while the car is in the process of having an update :

im respraying her in black (with red or silver detailing i havent decied)

removing the side strips

removing the rear boot lock and having a remote boot release

extending the front bumper to cover the exposed parts of body under bumper

and rust treatment

Ive also had a few mecanical problems wich have now been sorted:

overheated turned out to be a faulty fan switch not swiching the fan on

misfireing wich turned out to be a combination of the distributor cap roter arm and leads

and a few electric problems which was a bad earth

Hi Stuart , nice to hear from you ,really glad your sticking with the volvo ,

if you go for red styling I have the seats from the redline if you want them (no charge to you mate )they are black glt seats with a red pinstripe round the edge ( you just have to pick them up )
you will have to make up some covers for the headrests though as I borrowed them for my rear headrest conversion (sorry )and the passenger seat has a split seam ,easy repair , let us know coz otherwise they gotta go
