Hey everybody, I have been lurking on this sight for over a year now and I have finally decided to man up and show my car even though it's about as stanced as a jeep. I'm going to be cutting some springs to bring it down next weekend but the ultimate goal is a legit set a coils. Anywho, on with the pics!
when I picked it up, a two owner 1976 Volvo 245 with a rebuilt motor/trans and a fairly new paintjob.






and my favorite part of the car, the absolutely MINT interior




Decided to make the most out of the wheels and tires I had, so I picked up a few chrome pieces and polished them up.



I also sanded off the lettering on the inside edge of the tires for what I had planned



Then I had the steelies powdercoated


All back together!

Then I moved on to the most time consuming part...painting my own whitewalls! I used Kilz white primer and it has worked great so far! I've had to repaint it once, but definitely worth it.



one down!

and all done!

and back on the car







So this is where she sits until I get the springs cut while I wait for the coilovers. I hope you guys enjoy!
