Here is mine. So far it has custom Hellwig swaybars, Metco rear LCA's, poly front bushings, cut down F41 springs in the front G-body springs in the rear. Boss 18X9 wheels with 275/40-19's all around. The engine is a cammed Olds 350 that is soon to have multiport injection. The engine is backed by a 200-4R with a trans-go shiftkit and Kilduff shifter. I have 4 bucket seats replacing the front and rear benches. Plenty more done as well.

If you haven't been following Hotroddin''79's build, you will get a kick out of it. One of the coolest wagon builds IMHO.

I LOVE what you've done to your Volvo! Kinda thumbs its nose at the stodgy old image that Volvo's are known for. How hard was it to shoehorn an LS1 into your ride? How much fabrication was involved? Please, tell all!

I'm a big fan of Volvo wagons, and drive a v70 xc, but that rig isn't mine. Drop the owner a line on his cardomain account.

Thanx for that. That is exactly what I am going for. Function on a budget. So far it's worked out just like I have wanted it to. Now If it would just be nice enough outside so I could take it in for it's yearly inspection.

Thank you sir! I'm rigging up a hidden trailer hitch to drag my camaro to the dragstrip right now. I got a low slung car trailer that I think I may put some chrome steels and whites on, just to be different I guess!

It was a 58 nomad like yours but it was blue with a white top. I'll see if I can dig up a few pics and scan them in. I still have a tripower set up for it. I just need to get the rest to go with it. LOL

The Volvette is owned by a local kid in my area, It's a twin turbo LS1 with a T56 and a ford rear (not a 9in, I think out of a explorer). It's currently being redone, new paint (aviator grey),full cage, and bigger turbos. Goggle it and there is all kinds of crazy vids, including a 180+ run against a street bike.
