That's a good bit of work for a day off!

I'm finishing up my last semester of college and am quite tired of all of the "crap" that has been going on up there in Washington. And in such I'm debating running for congress.... I am just interested in getting in there and getting the job done, and done effectively as a voice for the people who seem to be less and less heard over the years.

Do you have any political connections? No? Good luck!

Johann, tell me about your car trailer? Does the V70 actually haul it when it's loaded with a car? I just bought a 16' aluminum car hauler a little over a month ago.

That's really cool that this is going on Johann. Will it cover all models (850s) ??

Who are you kidding.

Car companies rarely work retroactively.

Chuck, whats the word with the PMs?

Hussein, you are THE MAN!

This thread is great and it's so good that you took pictures all along the way.

What are the latest dyno numbers?

A very niiiice

You can say that again!

Jesus man! You are really getting right to work! Keep it up Johann, my friend just got back from visiting family in Holland, she had an excellent time.

The S40 gearbox as it is didn't work out. The cast is missing some mounting holes for the rear gearbox/engine mount. I decided to transfer the internals of the gearbox to the original GLT gearbox housing. Engine is back in the car now.

Johann, your rate of progress is one of the most astounding things about your builds. Kudos yet again.

Is this something that the forum will vote on or that you/Chuck will just decide, the winner that is?

Remember, the members MUST meet the criteria. I haven't recieved any nominations since thursday.

Any nominations that really meet all the criteria? :lol:

Bummer, but it sounds like you have some exciting things planned for the car!

Johann, when can I come visit?

Did Swedespeed not do coverage of the event this year?

I can't wait for Saturday Mike, I'm bringing tools down with me to swap at the show.

lol, they sent me a letter that telling me to pre-reg when i already had

Same here.

just bought tickets for the show field.. idk why but last year i bought the $50 ones..

see everyone at carlisle!

You not showing the car?

I would say not totalled, but with the subframe damage and electronic issues you mentioned, it just might be totalled.

Oops...hit the wrong button...the above post can be deleted! My bad!!!

I'm new to this board, but have been a regular over at V70R.com for quite awhile...I'll see you guys in Carlisle again this year. Mine was the black R from Canada with the yellow accents.

I remember meeting you and seeing the car (it looked great, by the way) but I don't recall your name. Regardless, I look forward to seeing the V70R again!

Where in Canadia are you coming from?

You take the fun out of reading is fundamental.

Thanks Chuck.

Received a package of goodies from IPD today. Big thanks to them.

What are they contributing to the raffle Greg?

I still have to figure out what I'm sending.

Dave I'm pretty sure you can still register when you get there. Just pull over to the left at the main gate and go into that building.

That is correct, that's what I did last year.

It's $10 more after April 27th (I think that's the date)

Ok, I'll be in touch and we can figure something out.

Chuck, are you looking for stuff roughly the same value as the hose kits or different? What do the Vendors get if they donate something (will their names be printed on a banner for the tent or anything like that?)

It's spelled psychopath...

:lol:
