Default New Member from AL -- 1990 760 Turbo

Hey guys, Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Matty. I live just south of B'ham, AL and I just picked up a sweet 1990 760 Turbo sedan. Amazingly clean 1-owner car. A little old lady traded it in at my Volvo dealership and I snagged it up instantly. Threw a fresh detail on it and started to work fixing a few small issues.

Up first on the list is a new double-din cd/mp3 player and some better door speakers. I got those handled today, will install them tomorrow.

The next thing on my list is the blower motor. I pulled the DTC and it read "blower motor sluggish or seized" so I ordered a new one with the cage and I'll swap it out as soon as it gets here.

The turbo is starting to smoke when cold so I know it'll either need a rebuild or an upgrade. I'm looking into swapping on a cheap 16g with some supporting mods. Hopefully it'll give me another few years of reliable transport.
