hey fellas, so I have had a 2006 S-40 T-5 6 Speed fro 4 years now, absolutely love it.
Just recently purchased a 1996 850 T with 121,000 on it. 1 owner car well maintained by volvo delaer by previous owner. Car sat for the last 9 years, and now it's mine. My wreinching skills on a scale 1-10 I'd say I'm a 6 or 7. replaced brakes and rotors all around, front shocks, new tires, oil change with new spark plugs. it's running grreat, sounds better than my 2006. thanks for having me on the forum...

have a couple of issues will be searching on the forum.

 

happy holidays! welcome to the forum! just wondering what tires have you put on your ride? anyway, seems like you got lucky with the 1996 850 T. most of the problems i've seen posted here about the 850 is about the engine. hope you can post some photos or make a thread about the build

 

Hey valve, Firestone tires. Don't know what specific model. It's not really a build, just a bring up to date project to become daily driver. Just ordered a timing belt kit, will be tackling that on a warm day soon. The rest is all good for now. Thanks, Happy New Year
