I will admit that there have been some ups and downs. The car has not been completely problem free, but it has been a reliable daily driver for the 43 thousand miles since the time of purchase. October 16th of last year, I was driving her home from New York to Georgia. She was our honeymoon transportation on a road trip across the south eastern states. We have driven on the Tail of the Dragon a dozen times and entered a few auto cross events along the way. I even drove her back up north to attend a car show with our Volvo friends.

The car gets a lot of attention in its current state. Every time I fill up with gas, somebody approaches me with questions; the most common being, "That's a Volvo?!?" ...and I'm not done with it yet! There are a few more performance and cosmetic modifications to come, but I am slowly reach a point of complete satisfaction. It's nearly perfect in my eyes and I look forward to the journey ahead, wherever that road may lead.
I know my blog has been inactive for the past few months, but all of my projects have been documented. Over the coming weeks, I intend to post updates for all the things that have changed to the Swedish cars in my stable.
