ScottishBrick's 1999 Emerald V70 T5 Manual Wagon

LPT · Apr 1, 2016

Awesome find, congratulations! Good luck with it.

I'd be interested in meeting too, I'll bring my mildly modified white/ charcoal XC.
Except it's up on jack stands right now receiving new brakes and other upgrades, should be done soon though.

Great catch! My vote is to build it; I'm sure it'll be amazing!

Somewhere easily accessible from anywhere in the state would be good. Probably central/southern CT?

Hubbard park?

That's only like 2½ hours from me. I might have to come crash the CT party in the T-5R sometime...

Congrats! Looks really sharp

That would be a great location. We could probably take pics by the pond or on top of the mountain.

That would be cool

Dibs if/when you sell it. That's the best color. Now spill on the details.

I know I said venetian red was the best color, but emerald green is freaking awesome!

Congratulations on this amazing find!!

damn I love that color, esp in the Sun, it's awesome - can't wait to see your build and get ideas for my build.

peterbrown77 · Apr 1, 2016

yeah, that's about 15 minutes from my office.

Hey Will, what's the interior color code on that beast? Looks different than Eleanor...??

Damn, I'm loving that color man, GORGEOUS!!!!

ScottishBrick · Apr 1, 2016

Looks like 3960 since the dash and seats are different but door cards are uniform. 3990 all colors match but the door cards are 2 tone. It looks detailed or just not sub faded. I'll know more when I get the car in person next weekend

No Venetian Red for 99 anyway!

I know, I found it

Decided that this wagon gets the full swedespeed treatment. Poly torque bushings, delrin subframe bushings, xemodex etm, do88, snabb intake, 302, 320 or 330 (Porsche BBK) brakes, volans, trim matching shifter knob, eggcrate, rear mudflaps, new exhaust tip, maybe fix/improve the ipd exhaust from the s70. Possibly rebadge the tailgate if i can figure out if it looks good. I'd love to find some bbs propus for it too potentially. Also working on a rear tire well subwoofer insert inspired by the P2 cars since the wagon audio is lacking imho. Might rig up extra speakers too. Going to pick it up on saturday. Stay tuned!

Wow beautiful car! That is definitely the best color for P80s. I think the full swedespeed treatment is the perfect way to go, and the propus wheels would look amazing!

slupul · Apr 5, 2016

Please try the rebadge on the tail! I'd love to see the results on a p80 wagon.

I made some digital mods on my old 850R's badging which would should offer some clue as to how it would look on a V70:

I ultimately decided against changing it.
