thats quite a sleeper you have there Rev. But i must ask how did you find a volvo with a 308 under the hood.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

rev,

That Volvo doesn't look bad at all, and with a 308 you should have some fun at the lights.

I looked under volvo wagon in the classifieds. There it was. I had a laughing fit, rang the guy and fought hard not to crack up, then l saw the thing and heard it running and again started laughing. I just look out the window now every morning to start the day with a smirk.

rev,

What does it drive like? Is it just a stock 308 or is it worked?

See'ya:burnout:

[ReVN211]

you'll never be late for lawn bowls again :burnout:

[rev210]

It's worked .

308 --- forged flat top pistons, forged L34 rods/bolts, roller rockers, mild port head, double vavle springs, mellings pump etc...

Mild cam, electronic ignition.

Drives nice, plenty of pickup. I might give the guys at BRE a call sometime to get it dyno tuned/ carby setup and re-graph of distributor.

rev, That sounds very nice indeed. Fuel consumption might be a bit on the steep side, but there is plenty of room for the shopping. Can't wait till you bring it down the drags, and kick some Trev ass.

love it, gotta respect tough sleepers, especially wagons

[GTS-t VSPEC]

rev, I'm gonna be really pissed when you beat my 1/4 time in a Volvo aswell, I don't think I'll be able to live with it.

[rev210]

I think you will be pretty safe the volvo weighs alot. It would be lucky to get a 14 right now.

can i be part of your family now?

hehee

awesome family ride!

now the kdis don't need to go to an adventure park

they can have a rollercoaster ride in the 308 Volvo

[Gradenko]

Eww, carburetted. Unique find all the same Manual or auto? How's your better half liking it?

[rev210]

gradenko,

It's a turbo 350 auto. The missus likes it, she likes driving the line too.

The kids think it is funny because the lumpy idle rocks the car when its stationary.

[rev210]

It has a beefed up LSD diff as well, for doing shopping center burnouts, by accident of course.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

rev, Any plans to push the performance further on the Volvo, or just keep is as the family rocket?

See'ya:burnout:

[gtrken]

It's just the family car not the drag strip campainer.
