    Default 81 Corolla with Volvo Swap

    I posted pictures of this car a while back, but apparently it's now done. I was talking with my friend today who is in Sweden and he attended the event and mentioned he had some pictures of it. The ones below are from a link he sent me. He only caught a few of it, but apparently the thing has no lack of speed and sounds great.

    To me it's just really cool to see all the swaps they do. They love throwing Volvo, Saab, and Audi engines in damn near anything. Some of it's over the top, but the creativity is just amazing. I'll have to get some pictures of my friend's new Saab once he sends them to me.

    Yup, he cut the passenger side floor and routed the exhaust under there and then out the side. Unfortunately I think he is setting it up for drifting. Full cage and stripped interior. The entire interior is painted the body color and the original gauges were pulled and have been replaced with aftermarket ones.

    Here is a picture catalog of the build. The guy really put in some work on this car.
