There was a great Carsile pic, always liked the huge VOLVO grille, not because it looks good, but because it pisses so many people off.

I picked a pretty circuitous route and arguably cheated slightly, but I'm going to get there

isn't there some soft of law for bringing up a old thread from 65 years ago?
this is a progression build thread. you could have one for your cars if you documented every step like i have. there's many threads dedicated to projects. I like how all the work is in one thread instead of many many little ones.

Aha, Trav called you out on big ass VOLVO badge.

Again. I luv it tho.
"Property is the fruit of labor...property is desirable...is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built." - Abe Lincoln
