CaptainWhoosh Posted September 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I drilled a hole in the lower radiator hose to make for easy/lazy draining Spal install is underway. Using stainless hardware and Spal wiring. The clearance is SO much better. Stopped at Kruse/Lucas Imports to get some finishing parts ? All new Volvo hose clamps and a mix of all new coolant hoses from Gates and Uro. We don't do it for the glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainWhoosh Posted October 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Thanks bsneon98! I think it's a fairly generic Foam Cannon from amazon on our pressure washer Both the cars are running this morning Waiting for the next thing to break I *might* have Dad talked into selling me the wagon for good. Hoping to get it squared away before winter. For now, the mad scientist (my roommate) brought home these ramps from his parent's place. And now he is doing electrical wizardry Another off topic addition to the garage ? I don't have a Volvo problem...you have a Volvo problem Tried the ramps out today with much success Back on the road We don't do it for the glory.

CaptainWhoosh Posted October 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 A local friend hooked me up with a coin tray for my 740, so I fixed (and then cut up ) the dash trim to fit the tray a little further back. Took the 740 out to 2 separate car meets Played with an ATS while taking a shortcut through Mexico to the next meet Made it out for the end of the second meet On the day-to-day grind..the master cylinder I put in the 744 failed, so I decided to try my hand at rebuilding the old one I had pulled out. Mid-project as of this post, so we'll see how it works We don't do it for the glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainWhoosh Posted January 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 The wagon received my Alpine head unit from the red car, along with lighted window switches We don't do it for the glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainWhoosh Posted January 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 There are a lot of 1-year-only quirks to that car and I'm over it ? Plus I may or may not have hoon'd it to death ? The wagon is coming along. Got the microphone placed and installed some speakers I found in a Volvo at the junkyard a few years ago ? Better than the stock speakers by a long shot so far. Got into my amp collection and pulled these out. Probably going to put them in my Roommate's Volvo 240 for the year just to get them going for a while We don't do it for the glory.
