Not really an owner ...

Yeah, I'm registered on a board that I don't even own one, and prolly won't anytime soon because I can't buy one for my "daily driver" car budget(*). Strange? Perhaps, but OTOH, my sister does own one, and with over 90k miles on her '02 coupe, I'm sure it could use some help from one who's more acquainted with older Volvos.

Last week was going through and detailing the car. On task this week, I get to change a bent front spindle (as soon as the one I won off eBay gets here), finish smoothing out the front fender, camber kit (too late for the front tires already, though ), remount the body kit (because the body shop that did it was stupid) and engine mounts (worn/torn) ... wheeee!

In the meantime, I'll just sit back, lurk, and throw out some help here when I can.

* - That budget is $1000, inclusive of any necessary repairs to be visually decent and roadworthy. No, monthly payments for the next 5 years is NOT acceptable.

Done, done, and done.

... remount the body kit and engine mounts
Front remounted, back is fine, sides need more bolts and/or zip ties to hold it in place. Just the mounts left to do at this point, then another pair of 17's for the fronts.
