Default Happy new owner of a C70 HT 5 SPD!

This is my first Volvo, and I was lucky enough to score a deal on such a rare ride. I'll likely have to sell it as I have too many toys and not enough $, but I'll enjoy it for a little while. I bought the car from a friend of mine so I know its history which is good. In the mean time I'll be fixing up little things on it and enjoying the best car I've ever had!

Dude, you signed up here for the sole purpose of selling your car. Two posts total and one of them's a "for sale" listing. And it's clear you're just flipping the car so spare us the happy talk.

migbro's just jealous that I have a cool car, it's ok.

I AM happy to have it, happier if I could keep it. While the average person doesn't get it (my friends) that this car is special, some of you guy will. When I talk about it to them I get "yea, dude...it's a Volvo" said without any enthusiasm. This is why I'm boasting happiness here, but I do see what it looks like. My GF likes it, but sees that I can't sell any of my other vehicles as they all have specific uses and this one can't replace any of the others. I just got a call from a company that may be giving me a short term contract for some extra $, if that comes through the car's off the market!

I started perusing here a few weeks ago gathering information about things I'd like to do to the car. Tho I've only had it 6 days, I pretty much knew I was going to wind up with it almost a month ago. Adding power was first on my wish list, now that I've driven it some I don't feel it's lacking.

I tried to upload a photo, but I think they're too big and I don't know how to modify them. I try taking a shot with a lower res. camera and see.
Thanks for the welcome!
