Pics or it didn't happen ?
DVS V70T5 #2: THE SEQUEL - 1997 V70T5
- Edited
The first pic was taken in South Melbourne, where it had been in storage. The following though are after getting it home on 23/12.
I haven't washed it or even had a good look at it yet but will start on it in some way in the next few weeks.
Always liked black on a car , something about it . Bugger to keep clean but looks good when it is ?
Aside from the top surfaces (roof and bonnet mostly), the rest of the paint appears ok so far.
I'll give it a wash when I return from our mini-break and have a better look.
I need to remove some of the parts I want to to keep from the Focus and find a new home for that first before I drag the V70 into the shed.
@AshDVS the vocus up for sale soon? I might know of an interested party
Kool. It'll be in the next month or so.
I need to swap standard wheels back onto it, swap the stock plenum back on and get a few small jobs done.

What r u doing with the current wheels n plenum ?
Going to see if I can get the wheels on the V70.
18x8.5 ET40 might be snug though, so not completely against them going with the Focus.
One of my customers might want the plenum.
Looking good Ash. I do like the darker colours on the V70, I have a 97 T5 in silver but black looks way nicer. I look forward to reading future updates and hopefully get some ideas and borrow some inspiration from you lol ?

I'd expect ET40 8.5 with a 235 will be too wide in the front for the S40 but a 225 should be ok on the same rim.
I'll keep you in the loop regarding the plenum if my customer doesn't want it.
I love the look of the wheels but might end up getting a set of Koyas if I can't get these to work.
Worst case, I have a set of Volans I could refurb and use.

I have a set of 4 18x8 legit ozracing ultralights I could trade.... (were fitted on a P2 V70)
Ultraleggera?
AshDVSUltraleggera?
Yesm
Gotcha. I know the ones. Not quite my taste for a P80 though.
18x8 ET45-ET48 would be ideal though.

I think they would look good
Actually, I think I'm confused - they look very good. Let me see if I can get my Fifteen52 wheels on first.
Very nice , just what i wanted for my V70s!
A nice charcoal paint or powder coat will suit the black duco.
