Been lurking around here for a couple months (pretty started right before I bought the car) and just getting around to introducing myself. First "cool" car I've owned, before this is was all motorcycles CB550s before they got so popular that you can't buy a non running one for less than 800 bucks.

Purchased my first 1995 Volvo 850 Turbo with..... a salvaged title. The car was rebuilt after a front end collision and had been back on the road +5 years.

Got the car for 1,500 bucks with a bunch of spare parts
-2 turbos, 3 climate control units, new sunroof, lots of electrical parts etc etc you get the idea.

Things I know are wrong with car

-Leaky oil cooler lines
-Odometer not working (read mileage using the OBD-1 port 148,XXX)
-Sunroof is rusting out
-Inner tie rods need replacing (will prolly do outers at the same time)
-Oxygen Sensor (upstream)
-Rear Latch (most recent development)

Its been fun to drive so far as long as the repairs dont kill me. You'll prolly be seeing lots of me around here as there seems to be more work than I bargained for with this car.

A lil snap shot.

Nice. Welcome to the forum.

 

rspi your videos are incredibly helpful by the way. Used one to figure out how to read mileage via the OBD-1 port.

Kudos to you my man.
