Aaaah nothing spells reliability and long-term usage than a Volvo
That's a wise choice for a daily! So uhh...don't tell me you're throwing the LS inside the Merc, that's quite nutty to me! I really, really want to see the result though, this should be interesting to see. |

Thank you guys for the positive feedback.
As lagano said on his RP and I forgot on mine I did buy the LS engine from a crashed Z06 Vette but it is not going in to the 560...... Also a sneak peak of the 560 in its current condition. |

It is awesome to see old members coming back, I still remember looking at your builds more than a year ago and here you are now. I must say that R34 looks really good! If you might ever need R' parts from consider me your plug.
Welcome back man! |

# MACKAY : It is awesome to see old members coming back, I still remember looking at your builds more than a year ago and here you are now. I must say that R34 looks really good! If you might ever need R' parts from consider me your plug. Thanks mate and I definetly will. So today was busy as hell, I took the car to "Body Sprays and Repairs" here in LA stripped it, inspected the undercarage and everything else. After taking it apart and talking to the guys, I only needed new coilovers, brakes and rims w/tires. It was time for a lot of phone calls, I got TEIN coilovers here in LA, while the brakes, rims and tires I took from the shop that I had, the whole runing gear set up costed me V$10 500. The shop owner helped me out sorting an ABC Exclusive kit and the AMG Ducktail replica. The kit is a straight bolt on just gonna need to spray it. Later in the day I found brabus headlights for sale on ebay in LA, the add was not convincing but what can you do cheap is good hehe. Bought the headlights for V$120. Body kit with the ducktail replica costed me V$2300. The parts are finished with painting half an hour ago just waiting to dry, then to buff them out and to install on the car. The only thing missing is an engine, so if you have a good engine or know a good engine with more then 6 cyl let me know. Thanks! |

Olla Muchachos
So the W126 Parts have been painted last night they got buffed out this morning and we had a pretty simple install. The ABC Exclusive kit loos awesome and the ducktail wing fits perfectly. The rims in the factory color didn't match the car so we just sprayed them black The car is a fully functional W126 with ac and everything and it will stay like that, but for the engine I still have no idea for what to go....... Here are some more photos of the car so enjoy them.... |

That turned out better than i expected, it already looks ready for drifting! Black wheels were a great decision too. Well i'd keep the stock headlights but those that you got aren't bad either.

Thanks Lagano, I will need to meet with you once I get the new engine so we can shred some tires like we used to do
Now to getaway from the Merc a little........... While working on the 650 I used to bring the parts in my 850 but it didn't got any attention thats why today while assembling the 850 I dropped the car to a shop which checked the cars suspension and they told me that the suspension arms are no good for a long use anymore and they need to be replaced, but they only costed me V$200 which ain't bad..... Also while changing the arms it was a good idea to replace all shocks and upgrade the brakes since everything on the car was almost factory stuff. The shop where I did the inspection had everything that I needed to provide me and install while I was busy with the merc...... I got a set of OZ Mito III 17x10 wrapped in Micheline Pilot for V$2000 (Rims are used but tires are brand new), they installed me a Brembo 300mm kit with 4 Piston calipers and yellow brake pads for V$1200 and the car stops as insane now...... Wait Ben wasn't your Volvo with a higher ride height on the first photo, but on the last one is lower??? Yep thats true cause there is only one reason and it costed me V$2800.... Since its my daily driver I wanned it to be low as hell and to be functioning to do the groceries with it so I went with Air Ride on it...... The car in Air Ride LA shop the whole day till they finished the whole set up, after the check up they called me and said what was bad to replace and I told them what I needed, happily lady luck was on my side today since they had all the parts in the shop and now they are on the volvo. I had to pay the guys V$800 for installing the parts and staying 2h overtime to finish it (it costs a lot to have a guy doing overtime). But the result was worth every single cent. Check the results and see for your self. |

Oh wow, a bagged Volvo! Nice choice of wheels too!
The Merc looks handsome as well! Painting the wheels black was definitely a game changer choice |

Thanks for all the love for the 852.
@BigSmoke - Yeap it underwent a serious mod this time @Smurf - Tbh mine goes as a cloud it is perfect for my daily purpouses @Soju - Well it ain't the R version but there is stuff in plan for this car its gonna be better then the R The volvos body work was intact, allways gonna buy Arizona cars :D, since we didn't had any repairs I went on and helped the shop guys to mount the body kit. For this mod I used a shop again due me not having enough time to do it my self so I am trying to get all runing and looking fine and then spend a lot of time modifying them by my self like I use to do..... So when we took all the body parts of the 850, the guys cutted the front in half and then widened it, a little bit on the sides and a bit more in the middle, also all molding were removed and the parts were painted. These guys have a guy here which projects everything in 3d programs on the pc and then it prints out the body parts on a huge 3D Printer, thats why the body kit and all the small stuff V$4500 and painting V$1000, and V$500 for all the laborer hours spent! It is barely noticable but the car got widened a lot in the front and back, the rear doors were buffed out and shaved no more door handles on them. - Beny isn't your volvo a daily won't you sometimes need the rear doors??? - Yep it is a daily, thats why the door release mechanisam is mounted on the B post, so after u open the drivers or passenger door there is a button which you press so the back door unlaches and opens 10cm so its easy to grab the door and just pull it towards you. Also headlights, tail lights and windows went trough tinting, also the tail lights went trough the paint process to match the car color All the mods on the Volvo are done, there is just 1 left to do on later but that is not a priority so I am going to finish off my W126 and get it drift rdy, also I ordered an engine it should arrive around 3rd or 4th Jan next year so we will see... Have a happy new year guys, we will see what kind of shit is 2019 bringing |

Good morning......
The W126 is almost compleat but its ready for doing some doriftos For this build I went with a 13B as you could notice by the spoiler alert video I posted . It was a crate engine with all the mods installed and modified, just install it and drift the car.... The engine costed me V$6500, it makes 550HP which is pretty good enough for the car for drifting, the car will be going trough a setup phase now by a proffessional drift tuner, cause in few days I am boarding a plane with my mate Lagano we are going to Bosnia to help out my cousn with his tuning shop that he opened in Tuzla. I will post a lot of photos of the cars that we build there and of course there will be a car that I will drive and modify a bit to match my needs I will stay till April in Bosnia so there won't be any news on my rides till then Enjoy some W126 13B photos (I smell a lot of b****ing about a 13B in a merc but who cares ) |
