Update as of December 10, 2016

We spilt up into two "teams" this past weekend...

Team A: Gabe C. and a friend of ours
continued to strip the interior of the Volvo. We removed the dash and began removing the A/C tubing and system.



Team B: Gabe T. and Quinton worked on removing the turbo tubing, cylinder heads, and some other parts from the engine in preparation to exchange the camshaft for one with higher performance, as well as, to free up some space in the engine compartment (hard to tell in the photos). 



Future plans for the engine and surrounding area:
add a new camshaft,
insert new belts, 
install a bigger turbo, and
machine the heads to improve compression.

For the interior:
finish the removal of the A/C and excess wires;
install a roll-cage, a racing seat, and a harness; and
make new dashboard including gauges and a switchboard.
