irishbastard I've been doing working on my volvo 740 gl for one day a week, (bit by bit) and now it's complete and just about ready for a roadworthy on Monday or Tuesday!
irishbastard I was going to sell it at one point and had it on gumtree, but I canceled the add and decided to continue the project

irishbastard http://www.shannons.com.au/club/enthusiasts/Darcyrule/garage/1988-volvo-740-gl/photos/ can i get some help with uploading the pictures please @rob
irishbastard awesome, thanks for the help @Rob, the help is much appreciated ! , my cars at voldat until wednesday or thursday, at the moment it just needs a few things before i send it for a roadworthy ;)
Rob I quite like these... Need to take that turbo badge off the grille but.... it is not a turbo is it?
irishbastard na, i just put it on for the looks, but id better take it off i guess, im guessing that it might attract a bit too much attention :) , if someone looks close enough as well youll see that the bonnet has had a really big dent pushed out before i got the car, ill have to get it repaired ;)
irishbastard i was also trying to come up with ways to make the car faster, any suggestions anyone please ?
PaddlerEd Well, the easier option is to leave the badge on the grille and add a turbo to the engine, surely? :P
irishbastard cool thanks for the advice @Rob, @egads (she/her), @PaddlerEd, @A_Volvo_Driver , i was going to originally use the car as a burnout car, not that it'd be much of one ! (with only 130 Horse Power) but then i realized how straight the car was and restored it instead ;) , and i forgot to ask whos going to the march 30th event please, just trying to gather an idea on what cars will be there ! ;)
irishbastard i forgot to mention that the cars done only around 140,000 ks, but the original spedometer stopped and then it was replaced with a Volvo 740 turbo one that says 277,000 ks :)

Vee_Que Don't bother making it faster. It's a p plater car that is neat. There isn't much power to be gained with an auto and no turbo. When did you change the wheels?
