Swedish car show

[anders]

The 9th Swedish car cruise in will be on February 15th this year at the Triple X Root Beer Diner at 98 N.E. Gilman Blvd., Issaquah WA. It's always a fun event with good burgers. Its a great time talking with other D24/D24t powered Volvo owners. I will be attending with the car in my sig. I should also have a friend attending with his diesel volvo.
Here is the website, http://www.triplexrootbeer.com
Who else will be attending?

Unfortunately it looks like I have to be out of town that weekend and will not be able to make it. :( Bummer they scheduled it for Presidents Day weekend this year.

This is always a great event and I hope there is some good diesel representation there! I will be bummed to miss it -- whoever goes should plan to take pictures... :cool:

[RollinCole]

I will be bringing my original '84 760GLE D24T. I really hope to see you there, shoot me a text @ 253-590-3579 anytime! My name is Cole, from Tacoma. Find me on Facebook, Cole Bear. I am hosting a Volvo journey up North on the 31st.

[anders]

Well so far it looks like there will be 4 diesel volvo's there.

That's a bummer you won't be able to make it George, we will need to plan another get together for us D24t owners.

I look forward to meeting you Cole and checking out what sounds like a nice 760, I might have my 760 there as well..

I will be there too! We should all try and park in an area together. What time will you guys plan on being there? I will be coming from Tukwila, WA.

[RollinCole]

I'll be coming from Tacoma, not sure what time I'll be getting there but whoever gets there first should try to reserve a couple spots.

[anders]

The show starts at 9:00 am, I think we should all meet there around 8-8:30 to get the cars parked together. Chad and I showed up a little late I think last year and we didn't really get a parking spot.
I'm not sure if you can save a spot or not, it's a first come first served type deal.

We can also all meet up somewhere in Tacoma then drive to the show from there..

[RollinCole]

Anders and others, I'd be glad to have you all over at my place in Fife very close to Tacoma for coffee and last minute prep/detailing that any of you guys need. I have a three car garage and a kick ass coffee maker!

Sounds like a good plan to me, what do you think Chad?

[anders]

Cole- I will be sending you a text today so we can make plans for the show.

[v8volvo]

Sounds like you guys will have a great time this year. Sorry to miss it!

Hope you are planning to take some pictures. :cool:

[anders]

I didn't get much pictures, but here is one.

And a picture for my next project. Third generation GM v8 swap into a 240. This particular wagon had a LM7/4L60E transplant ( 5.3 and 4 speed auto from 04 silverado) the engine looks right at home.

[chad1966]

That LS swap would look a WHOLE lot better with a car intake and drive a WHOLE lot better with a T-56 6 speed. :) Let me know when you get er done so I can test drive it for ya. haha

I did until I finished this car. it was a 84 with a d24t. It was a good car, never let me down it 2 years.
