1997 Volvo 850GLT Wagon - Red

My parents bought this car brand new back in 1996 and it was the only car that I ever knew growing up. I've loved and cherished it ever since I bought it back in 2013.

In the recent months I've done several new things to the car to keep it visually appealing. I just did the calipers and the grille paint this weekend, and I hope to hit the trim soon with some sort of trim paint or dye (currently looking at the black Rustoleum trim/bumper paint because one of the Volvo enthusiasts I met on Instagram showed me how his looks two years later). I will NEVER modify the engine on this car for performance reasons, it is my daily driver and it is a family member. I do not like beating on this car.

I do have an Instagram account dedicated to this car: the850project https://instagram.com/the850project/

I am looking for another 850 wagon in the T5R/R package for something to modify and learn engine maintenance/modification skills with that.

 

Welcome & well said modifying is a bad idea when you feel your Car as a member of your family !

 

Sadly I think I blew my rear main seal last weekend. I stretched it's legs on the highway and now it's leaking oil ._.
