I could not be happier with the service from Krawler Konceptz. Added bonus, the product is just as good. Pleasure doing business with them.
Thanks!





Awesome finishing touch for the Volvo wagon.

I love wagons. Hope to own a 1:1 Volvo wagon down the road. May not look like this.

They're lovable. I started with a 244, later a 240, then a V50. Kids came along and we graduated to a V70 and now an XC90. The Mrs. wants an S60 and I know of a cherry V70R for sale in town.

Regardless, thanks for the inspiration. I looked up Barbie Volvos on eBay. I might have to build one myself.

The R is what I day dream about.

It was a fun build. Keep be posted if you do one.

Be careful. I did that and somehow ended up with three barbie Ferraris that I am going to build a rally car out of. Yes there were rally Ferraris in the venerable Group B (Micelototto 30.

Tappa who?

I've been watching a 911. Can't bring myself to pull the trigger.

I hope it's unique. I tried to be "original" as I built it. It varied a bit from my first idea. I wanted a bit lower, closer to modified stock. The wheel well size made me rethink it. I'm happy with it's final form. We'll see how it does next weekend at the G6.

So the Volvo did 96 of the 100 gates on stage. VERY happy with how it did for the first time out. Nothing broke. Nothing needed adjusted in the field. It performed WAY better than I thought it would. Worst thing that happened to it was very slightly bent both front lower links. I can live with that. Hell, it probably earned it's self some new titanium links.

Lowered the Volvo. I think it looks better. That's as low as it'll go.
