greetings all, hope to see you all saturday morning at IHOP at I-29 and 64th street for breakfast at 8:30am, then our jaunt up to st joseph. hopefully the ...
i'ld like to go, but the 1800ES is my only roadworthy vehicle right now, and it has this paranoid fear of ice and salt. maybe we'll wake up with sunny and warm...
I agree with Ryan. The 544 is also reluctant to splash salt on it's underside and the thought of literally thousands of other morons driving on ice makes me...
As a dedicated Okie and Volvo oldtimer, I think you guys up in KC ought to spearhead a petition campaign to eliminate salting streets and roads in the KC area....
They just announced on the news that MODOT is mixing "beet juice" with the salt brine they spread on roads. The logic being it makes it stick to the roads (and...
WD40 or any kind of oil works good also, it messy and gross, but it will not rust, and nothing will stick to it. It has kept all of my prone-to-rust cars rust...
so you just clean the underside and apply liberally? doesn't dissolve paint or undercoating? i may try this. i'm with George: salt should go. i used to drive...
I have used bedliner, but it tends to seperate over time. I like the spray on wax as a top coat on the underside. Spray it on after a good cleaning for a ...
yeah thats it. It does not hurt anything. One year I used waste oil and an old paint sprayer. its good cause it gets in all the nooks and cranny s that like...
hey all, i need to replace the clutch in my 67 1800. if you don't already know, it has a B230FT mated to an M410. the flywheel is 9" and the input shaft is...
Try the other vehicles that used the motor from that car (the infamous PRV-6) Delorians were one I believe. Peugout and Renaults from that era may have also. I...
good point. i wonder what transmissions these cars used? i know that the M45/6 trans went to a 1.125"x 10 spline then to a 22 spline input shaft by the early...
My source for this type of info is IPD. They always seem to have someone around that can answer these issues. Of course you can then also place your order at...
I will take it upon myself to reply to your inquiry about the "outing" Sum total of 7 Club members (hardy/foolhardy souls?) showed up at the IHOP in North KC...
thanks for the update, Phil. glad to hear that the trip will be rescheduled. i'm always in need of life experiences that reaffirm the fact that i'm not...
VCOA members will have noticed Phil Turner's great article about his amazing 544 project in the most recent issue of Rolling. It is wonderful that all VCOA...
While Holiday Greetings have been extended in the usual fashion, I thought it might be nice to get some practical advise for the next few days. Looking...
You all know that I'm a Volvo guy. The new offerings are all very nice, but I really like the old stuff, namely the 1800 series. Some of you may know that one...
....in TWO different publications. The March issue of Hemmings Sport & Exotic has a "Buyers Guide" column for the 1800 coupe. They promise that a Buyers Guide...

Hey, folks.....we've had the same opening graphic on this forum since 2005!! It's about time for a change. So please e-mail me a photo of your favorite volvo...
great idea, Ron! should these cars be members' cars, or just a particularly nice example? or maybe a mix of both (how many of us have a p1900?) ryan 67 1800S ...
Folks, just wanted to give a quick update on last Saturday's VCOA meeting and what lies ahead for 2008. First off, please join our Yahoo group!! It's at ...
I live in Alta Vista KS, which is on the way. I can give you a scenic route to Lindsborg which would allow you to see all the great views in the flint hills....
I joined the club at Winslow's last Saturday for lunch and they suggested that I post a message that I am looking for a 240 for my son. Other son is driving a...
Hi, Gene. Saw you at Winslows, but never had chance to visit.....was at the other end of the table. Not sure if anybody mentioned it, but you might also check...
