......Kinda weird....thinkin' the 'ol GT could use some love...lurkin' around some volvo forums...and lo and behold...the GT's already made an appearance on turbobricks.
So where do I start? How about someone suggest me a good mechanic in the Vancouver area. Thnx.

Give Len a shout at Schrams

Saw this guy the other day at Champlain Square. WHO ARE YOU?

 

[volvoluvin]

hmm...not a terrible looking 740...

 

[B-Rod]

I think that's Turbo'd 24erty4er, not positive though

Also, no one ever spots me

 

[+Kardboard+]

I spotted you at the Market Crossing Timmy's. Just sayin'.

 

[Hagar17]

Pretty sure I've seen that at a Cates park Volvo meet, it is nice.

 

[GabAlmighty]

Also, spotted a really nice light olive green 122 by Lougheed and Gaglardi.

Also, no one ever spots me

If you see a red 2nd gen 4runner trying to follow or get a good look at ya it's just me being nosey.

Just because I'm a bit slow, are LOLvos cars we like, cars we laugh at, or both?

If it's cars we like, I spotted this '78 GT in east van today.

Needs some love but has my favourite graphics package. I need to find a four door version of this.

I also spotted a pretty decent white Amazon wagon by the drive but it was gone by the time I swung back to get a photo.

I used to pass this car parked by Patterson Skytrain station on my way to work.

It always caught my eye.

Not a '78. Wrong tail lights...

You could make a 4-door version...it's all cosmetic stuff. I had that front end on my '85 245Ti for a while. Most people never noticed but the odd Volvo guy would do a double-take...

How hard was it to get in and out of the car

I CAME!

I just thought '78 since there were no butt cheeks. Just when I think I have this figured out. So..what year is it?

I am slowly going with a 4-door GTish look, although not the grille. I just meant the striping package. I know guys make the 2 door kit but haven't asked if they would modify the sides for 4 doors. No rush since I need a bit of painting first.

LOL, how true. Most people think it's just another boring Volvo.

With respect to the 242GT, it's a '79. 1980 had the spare tire wells and the 1980-82 (or 1985 for up there) front spoiler. My 245 has the suspension of a '79 242GT on it right now...
