    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    What a truly great car. Mate of mine had one with the H-spec cam. It was one of only six brought into Australia in that spec. We ended up turbocharging it and turning it into a feral wolf in sheep's clothing. We'd go hunting WRXs for a laugh. Made my hotted up XU1 look quite a bit silly... When he sold it he turned to boost way back down to only 17psi... Great memories. Anyway, well done and enjoy

    They appear to be the 40AH deep cycle AGM batteries. If I recall correctly, the maximum 5 second burst current was 380 amps.

    My uncle had a granny spec baby poo brown volve 244 that he purchased new ... when its motor wore our he shoved a range rover v8 into it .... (this would be 30years ago). So it went from a 4 cylinder slugomatic to something that near did wheel stands until he blew the diff and put something in it with a better diff ratio in there.

    Its still around down in melbourne somewhere.

    Good friend of mine family ( who is in high care & were cleaning out his house to sell) just dumped a heep of new old stock Volvo parts . I contacted the Brisbane Volvo Club for them 3 times with no reply in a mounth so all went to the tip. Pitty but family are all in there 70's & didn't want to be dealing with idots on Ebay & Gumtree ( DON'T BLAME THEM) There were grills , gear boxes , electric window motors & regulstors , suspension parts & test & dionostic equipment , about a 1/4 of a small skip of parts .
