Thread: Alex's Volvo 760GLE (lots of pics)

I also added the 16's off the other car in feb or something like that. I dont' update much on here as not many people seem to be interested in anything that doesn't have a blue and white badge, and there is a perfectly good Volvo forum I post on, but here's some pics of the car with the other rims as it is now. Before After: I have newer pics, but not online, only difference is that it's slightly shinier and it has...

16's look much better!

The 2.8 in the 88 onwards are a lot better to drive and the motor is a lot better. The earlier ones with the K-jet are better to be replaced with a 3.8, but they all had 4 speed auto's.

I was just thinking that it looked good lowered like that... Nice stuff, like those who do stuff to...

Raise the rear... ...or lower the front. Nice Volvo mate! Looks like shes really coming along!

Car's coming together nicely. Should be a sweet car when it's all done. quick photoshop of the car with the proposed wheels:

Also bear in mind that braided brake lines, whilst improve the feel marginally, dont last nearly as long as standard rubber/plastic ones.

Good job Alex, knowing what a shitter that car was 2 or 3 years ago you ahve done well to get it to the standard it is now!

Nice. A mate has put a deposit on a 760....with a twist. Transplanted with a VN 3.8 v6 and TH700 4Spd Auto with shift kit...
