Good job, and I admire your perseverance! It is really a labor of love. I think I would have lost interest in a project spanning that long a period of time. This will be the first winter since I've owned my truck, that it will not be driven over the winter. I have the front suspension torn apart, and between saving money for new parts, and finding time to work on it, I don't expect it will be back on the road until next spring. And it needs more work than just the front suspension, so it will always be a work in progress.

I think most of our trucks (and other vehicles) are works in progress, aren't they? Always something needing doing....

I had a lady and her husband admiring my truck, at a car show a while back. She ask me, how long did it take me to get it in the shape it's in now. I said, well, I bought the truck in 2002, used with 85,000 miles. I've been fooling with it since then, but really got serious about fixing it up, in 2009, when I took it from my wife, and bought her something else. She said, when did you finish it?, I said, it we'll never be finished. There is always something else to do on it, or something else to add to it, to make it better, faster, or look better. It is an on going process. Same is true, for everyone at any car show, and also for anyone who has any love for what the drive.

The fact that you built it in Sweden is amazing. It would look right at home in any of the shows over here.

Well we like american cars and trucks over here very much but eaven a simple thing as a non metric bolt is ridiculus expensive. All of my inspiration comes from you guys over there
If I've been restomodding a volvo I probably could've done 3 cars by now

To be honest it feels good to take a break from the truck. Just walking by it and seeing all the small things that's left makes me sick of it right now.

And vice versa. I can't imagine how much time and money I'd spend restomodding a Volvo 850 T5R over here.

Laid the blue blanket over the red just to get an idea of how it will look
