Looks fantastic! How did you get around the SRS light for the steering wheel?

Yes! I think the only ones there I haven't met in-person are Pras and Danny.

All that it's missing is a giant VOLVO badge on the front basket.

Pras kinda looks like a zombie. lol

So hot. I love that your DOT spec headlights and turn signals are so shiny. The ones I see are usually pitted and dull now.

This is so deep, man.

GORGEOUS

How dare you. Whatcha got?

No sweat. I'm more happy you're keeping her alive, tbh!

With how available things are and how sweet your car is, I'd be inclined to push you to fix it. If you don't; what would you replace it with? That said though... if you end up parting it out, lemme know about those coilovers, K?

You were sending it so hard you made it go boom cause #nofucksgiven.

RUNNING IN THE 90S

Mmmmmmm lookin' good!

Bummer, Andy! Sorry to see :( And I agree, I don't think it has anything to do with Steve-O's tune. With the engine getting up there in age and mileage being pushed harder than normal, things are bound to go quicker. It was sorta like when I had to rebuild the head on mine. At over 400K km, valve stem seals were worn and one of the cylinders already had really low compression (especially compared to the rest), so I knew it was bound to go; I just didn't know when, so I continued to push it hard until it gave out. Now that it's rebuilt, it pulls harder than ever with the mods. Looking forward to seeing where you go next with it, Andy! It'll be running better than ever once you've got it swapped.

Seriously, now that the bumper is refinished, it totally changes the whole car. I'm also digging how clean the DOT-spec headlight lenses and corners are. It's refreshing to see especially when they're usually all sandblasted. DOT lenses can actually look good!

The wagon is looking gorgeous! Nice work. Bummer that you'll have to drop the tank and investigate again but I'm sure you'll get it sorted out. You guys are doing a real good job at making me miss my wagon. v_v

You can help change that you know, Kevin...

Let's not get ahead of ourselves... first question... did they keep the giant Volvo badge on the grille?

Never forget.

I stopped using them a while ago because of how slow and full of ads they were.

Sweet. Yeah, I love the higher-end Nikons for that reason. It's so handy. Ahh okay. Hmmm, I wonder if the 10-20 Sigma would work the same way as my 10-24 on an FF.

What lenses do you have? I've found the 10-24 actually works as long as you keep it between 15-24. There's still some slight vignetting at 15 but you can always fix that with editing. The transition from the D7xxx to 750 was actually very easy. It's very slightly larger in size but the button placement is very similar. I actually found moving from my D5200 to 7100 was a bit tougher because the 5200 was a bit more "basic". If you go from your 7000 to 750, I think you'll get used to it super quickly.

I tried to resist when Henry's had the D750 on sale for boxing day but couldn't lol. Literally drove through the aftermath ice storm the morning of the 26th, which was great because the store was totally empty and I got one of the two they had in stock.

This 50mm f/1.4D is so much fun to use, especially now that I've got FF. Thanks again @MattyXXL! by Michael Lim, on Flickr
