Canadian Volvo Club 33rd Annual Family Day,Ilderton, Ontario

Wow! Alot of nice cars. I see that red Bertone is still on the road. Saw that a bunch of years ago. Also do you know what front end was put on that red 242?

Um, wat. Is that a 300 front end and what is that for the back end? The engine swap, widebody, paint and wheels are awesome... but dubya tee eff. Oh man, why do people ever think it's a good idea to put a completely different front end on a car? The sad thing is how much they spent to pull that horrible look off. I just don't...

Other than that, lots of nice cars. Looks like fun!

From what I understand, it's a completely custom front end based off Chrysler 300 headlights. Tail lights are off a Mercedes of some sort. There's a lot of carbon fiber (or wrap?), and the bodywork itself is top notch...but there's no accounting for taste :rofl:
 
I think the back end of that looks like it has potential to be really cool. More pics needed though.
 
Is that red one coconut Colin's? The white wagon on galaxies I saw at he varac vintage race festival a few years ago. That all original, maroon 242 :drool: my car from another time.

Wait, all the time and money spent on body and engine swap/modifications and the inner fenders were not painted the same color as the exterior or maybe black, to me it's incomplete....:omg:
 
It is. I overheard that the owner wanted it "done" enough for the show; there are still a couple hundred hours of work left to be done.
