The volvo, around work know as the "volstang" we built last year at work in the down times at the shop. It has a stock 5.0 with the T-5 and exploder 8.8 with rear disk w/3.55s .I love the looks you get driving it around, with long tube headers and 2 chamber flowmasters, it don't sound like your average soccer mom's station wagon. Next winter I'll be pulling the engine to freshen it up with a 331 stroker kit, cam, and twin turbo set up.

Going through my pic folder, found a bunch of vehicles I haven't posted yet.
This is what I want to build my truck to be able to do.
Dads old ranger
An old Ford me and my dad spray painted 13 years ago with 78 cent a can paint. Found the truck in a junkyard 2 years ago and the paint wasn't in that pad of condition for what it was.
Moms old Jeep
Grandpas old 4 runner with the neighbors which I believe was a nova in the background
Dads old 72 Ford F250 Ranger. Fully rebuilt 390 with new automatic, new power steering and new tires. Dad paid $300 for it as the guy wanted it gone.
71 Ford F250 Purchased it for $200 just so we could take its tailgate for the 72. Sold it for $1500
Dads old 84 Buick Regal T-Type. Fully rebuilt turbo motor, completely redone interior and exterior.
Background of this pic is my gramps old 4 runner, neighbors nova, and one of our turn around Jeeps
My old 87 Jeep Grand Wagoner. Installed a Jeep Gladiator Header Panel On and Tinted The Windows
My old 91 Cherokee

This was a 92 Jeep Cherokee we bought for $450 because it needed a water pump. 150000 miles on the clock, Engine and tranny only had 21000 miles on them. Guy had Chrysler drop in a new motor and tranny. It had every feature you could order with one and a 5 speed tranny. Had a lot of history that went with it as it has been in 35 countries across the world. Guy was in the military and took it everywhere with him. Had $21000 in receipts of all the work he had done to it.
My aunts 93 Ford Ranger. 4x4 4.0L. A lot has changed since I have taken these photos. Still got a ways to go with it to get it looking good. BTW roll bar is no longer orange and she has my old wheels wrapped in some new 31s and I did a roll in bedliner job for her. And no longer has the bronco sticker on the back window. Next I gotta get her to get some diff headlights, repaint all the flares and grill.
Dads old 95 Ford F-150 with the 302 automatic 4x4. Came from out east and the rust came with it. Wasn't present when he first bought it, but it showed up after 2 years of owning it. Damn salt.
My old 98 Jeep Cherokee, some idiot pulled out in front of me when I was doing 45 mph. At the time of impact I was only going like 15 mph. It ----ed the Jeep up and didn't do **** to his car. Broke my header panel, bent both fenders and bumper, and tweeked the mounting flanges for the bumper on the frame. came out to $3500 in damages. His insurance company gave me a check to go get it fixed. Instead I bought $5 in paint and bought my truck. Sold the Jeep as it was for $1800. That's why I will never ever drive a Cherokee again. They look very nice and drive and off road nice. But in any type of wreck they fold.
Day I bought it
After the wreck, glued the grill and bezels back together and painted everything black. Hid a lot of the damage.

98ish Monte Carlo I saw at the junkyard. Someone tried to turn it into a elcamino or something lol.
Don't know what the hell this thing is. It was in the imports section at the junkyard
Another reason why I stopped driving Jeep Cherokees. Their crash ratings just plain suck. I highly doubt anyone in this thing survived. And most Cherokees I see in the junkyard that were in wrecks and in pretty bad shape as well.
This is the interior of an explorer at the junkyard. The exterior is just as clean as the interior.
Little tiny Dodge Ram. The wheel base of my Ranger was longer than its.
I replaced the rear diff in this car. All original I don't remember the year. It was late 30s early 40s. Under the Car cover was my bosses 66 Mustang Convertible. He has like 18 grand just in body work and paint alone on it.
This was the bosses daily driver when he wasn't driving he explorer. He's had it since 78.
He has like 8 fully restored Mustangs in his garage at home. I wanna swing by his garage again and see if he has finished the 66 yet. Haven't worked for him since November.

Come on folks.... it's a thread forvehicles you yourself saw in person. Not something you saw in an email, on the interwebs, or on StanceNations facebook!
Also, it's not a thread for showing off your past vehicles.....we already have those threads. It's a thread for neat, interesting, odd, cool, or stupid vehicles you've seen out and about in real life. If your past vehicle fits that description, please feel free to post it!
I'll sometime update a big *** pic post of my SpOtTeE RiDeS. Driving for a living, you see ALOT of ****. lol. But quick question, is there a way to disable your picture from becoming an R-F attachment? If it's an attachment, does that mean it's in R-F's database permanently?
Reminds me of a repaint of a Taxi movie car. The movie with Jimmy Fallon and Latifa or whatever her name is. I saw it mentioned a few posts after, but I'm willing to bet she's a former movie prop car.
That's a clean *** Ranger. I'd rock it, even though I secretly wanna take a 4lb BFH to the tails and heads. Still clean as heck!
mmmmmm....Gen5 Fairane. My favorite mid size Ford of the muscle car era.
I LOVE those cars!! My neighbor has a tan T-Type...I've been lusting after it for more than a decade

Jeez shane calm down. It isn't doing anyone any harm. It was a dead thread and I was just trying to bring back some life to it while I went through my pic folder.
And yeah that was a nice t type. Sad he sold it a few years ago. He has a 85 in his garage right now that was a barn find. Someone stole the motor and crap out of it. Been working on it for 2 years now, found a motor and tranny for it. We put a lot of upgrades in this motor. Performace cam, roller rockers, performace pistons, gonna convert it over to an intercooled turbo. There's more that's been done to the motor just can't remember what all he had put in it. Eibach performance racing 1" lowering springs. Right now its getting ready to be shot with paint hopefully by next weekend. And then its time to redo the interior. Things on the car have been going slow as he also has a 87 chevy 2500 with the 454 in it that he's also working on. Ill post of both when their done.

So I saw this yesterday. Pretty amazing. This was cruising along in traffic with these guys standing on the back of the trailer. It's no biggie though. We were all only going about 45mph or so. :-P haha...Unfortunately my gf is retarded and didn't take the pic quick enough before they started to make their turn. It didn't help I was bombing threw traffic trying to catch up to them to get a pic. (Not fast enough I suppose.) I was seriously laughing pretty good at this. Pics not great. (One of those, you had to be there kind of deals.) You get the idea though...
