Here’s the game, on your local Craigslist find a item For the Volvo Superleggera project.
Rules.
1. Has to be performance related,
2. Has to be under $500.
3. The nuttier the better

Any game involving craigslist is probably not even legal.

How about a turbo Ecotec engine? Sell the tranny (giggle) for a proper three pedal.

Is $400 a crazy good deal? I’ve never heard of an engine made in the last five years having a price under $1,000

There is also a 351, but there isn’t a pic and it’s kind of vague.

Hydraulic handbrake.

Depends on how much of the electronics come with it, but yeah that's a good deal, (if it works)

What I'm learning is, if I want a 5.0 I have to get it from Canada if i want it cheap

1. I guess you can sorta count this as performance related
2. It’s under $500
3. It’s nutty (and probably not legal for any kind of racing

What, this doesn't count as a fuel cell tank? I'm sure it's safe for racing...
![]() 09/28/2015 at 16:57 |
|
I’m sure it’s safe as I don’t know that the Volvo would move under its own power with 500 gallons of fuel. Nevermind you would probably have to put the tank on the roof.

BFG All-Terrain tires. For Rally Moose!

There’s no craigslist where I am. There’s this though. Volvo 480 skin. Actually, it’s a complete €400 Volvo 480 (€400 = $449 = <$500). Engine doesn’t start, so it’s an ideal candidate to swap your engine into. That the 480 is FWD shouldn’t be too much of a problem, should it? Just swap in the entire RWD drivetrain into that much lighter 480 and you’ve got yourself an even better Volvo race car! (

I think these are the exact volvo->bmw adapters I used to run on my 240. Cause how many people in CO have those?

B&W for effect.

I love the look of this thing, I think your right swap in my rwd set up into this and whoooo race car
