Looks like it’s time to dump Jalopnik, I feel like I’m reading the MSNBC car section, way too much of the left wing crap.

Exactly my first thought, they lost me with the cheap ass, goofy looking air filter.

I was a dealer for 9 years, the best part of it was buying cars at the auction. If you know what you’re doing, it’s not the least bit scary. If you don’t know cars well or how to assess them, you can lose your ass faster than going all in on a craps table.

I watched this from beginning to end as I have restored many damaged cars myself, but this build was huge, and Chris did a great job. My hats off to him because I wouldn’t have bothered with this big of a project, I don’t have that much patience or time.

True, this was built by a private guy in his garage, had nothing to do with Volvo corporate.
