My other ride. Volvo 242 turbo

***ELD4AU6*** · 09-02-2007, 04:46 PM

Its a 1982 Volvo 242 GLT Turbo + Intercooler. I have added a intercooler, gave it a tune-up, and got a mbc set to 13.5psi. Its a pretty fun car to drive around, but it needs some help in the handling department.

Thanks for looking

few more pics

I love volvos (as race cars). My mom had a 95 850 station wagon N/A. I wanted to slap a turbo on it sooo bad, and some coilovers. The car drove dam good for a wagon. You should put a strut tower brace in the front. It's askin for it.

I have to say the background looks sweet too. Very interesting looking road that I am sure is a blast.
