I am back

Post by CaptainQwerty » Sat Apr 04, 2015 11:13 pm

Hello all,

It has been a long time since I visited and my Volvo 480 has certainly seen better days.
I am back and 2015 is the year my Volvo is going to see its restoration.... Annoyingly on a bit of a budget.
Since I was last here it has been a bit of a nightmare;
> Need a sump which took me ages to find
> Rot has started to get a bit bad
> Over-fueling and high emissions
and more.

I have finally got it into a garage closer to home and have started a blog tracking the progresses of the restoration and any comments on posts with advice etc. would be more than appreciated :D I am ok with cars and relying a lot on a close mate to help me out so any advice about any part of it during the process of restoring the car would be hugely appreciated.

We have started at the rear end and are slowly working our way to the front resolving all the issues we come across. Which so far is mostly just rot and surface rust.

Any way - I am sure you will see me actively posting here again :D

Toodles.
