Lets just say this past year my this Volvo has gone threw hell. My dad bought it in 1994. He owned it up until about 2004 then gave it away to my step mothers son in law. Before he gave it to him years before that my stepmother blew the engine in it somehow and got it replaced. That was the most major incident up until now. When my dad gave it away a few months later he got t-boned and the car was totalled. Now my dad asked for it back. $1300 later we got the body of the car fixed. Then almost another $2000-2500 to replace the radiator, shocks, struts, valve cover gasket, all ball joints, tie rods and the list goes on. Well after it got fixed its now in my hands. Here are the pictures of the accident. And by the way this Volvo has 260k and still going strong.
Here is a picture of it now. I dont have pictures of the drivers side which was hit but it basically looks the same except the moldings on the two doors that were replaced are chrome...arg damn body shop. Im going to paint them black so they blend a little bit. These doors must have been from a newer volvo or something.
UPDATE 9/6/06
The trunk is primer because I was doing body work for my senior project so decided to paint the trunk. I never finished it but i used a filler to fill in the tiny dents and primed it and going to paint it soon. But i just niteshaded the tail lights and they look sick. I also have a picture of the side of the car that was in the accident but now fixed...here are the pics...
