Don't have a lot of pics of mine, but here is my 1976 245. Ford 2.3L Turbo and T5 trans.
It has been known to tow a few things.... 
And get a bit sideways

I hate seeing threads like this.
They're like those damned iPd catalogs. They make me want another brick.  Brian Driggs | KG7KCA | PHX, AZ | 89 Pajero alterius non sit qui suus esse potest |

Really, I thought this was Internet Diarrhea. Who wants to see some old POS Volvo being made into anything but a rally car with a mismatched 850 air dam and with a bunch of "dudes" and "yos" and misspellings? That is why they have TurboBricks and why I don't visit that site. IPD was and is a bunch of overhyped shit. Now, do a build thread on a 122s rally car, and I'll watch it. |

Dooood you're harshin our mellow, mang! The boy has gone for an exciting ride---at my arrangement---with Alpert Kunkanenen in the orange 240 and immediately came and signed up here. Baby steps, mang.. And year the limp-wristed metro-sexual hipsters aka Eye Pee Dee sell foofy crap to foofy girly-men and talk to them in person---the saving grace for some of us---and it's WORSE, even when it's clear you know they're talking hype, I know they're talking hype, we all know they're talking hype... Lame stuff indeed. But what does that have anything to do with Myles transmogrification into a rally perv and what's so wrong with a 240 that is supposedly so much better in a 122? Sumpin wrong with 3 turns lock to lock less steering? Or a stronger front end? Or easy power?
