A friend-of-a-friend did some body work on my 240. It included changing the trunk lid. Along the way he lost the key I gave him and he also didn’t re-key the trunk lid for my existing keys. Now I’ve got 2 questions… 1. Where can I get a new key for my 240? I’m living dangerously by using just a...

I?m getting tired of my carpet dash cover, so I?m thinking of repairing the cracks in the dash and flocking it. I feel like this is a look I usually see embraced in the JDM scene, but less in the land of the brick. Anyone here done it? Got pics of the results?

I?ve got a ?91 244 that has a steady whine from the rear end that seems to increase as speed increases. I asked the go-to old Volvo mechanic in this neck of the woods and he was fairly certain it?s the rear diff. He also said he doesn?t often see issues with the rear diff on 240s, so I?m...

Alright TB. I know how much y?all love Coronas but... I just got a cheap set that I?m looking to use for winter wheels. Of course they don?t come with center caps. I?m not looking to pay a premium for the ?correct? caps. I just want something to keep out the salt and other NYC winter detritus...
