InDy, where do you find this stuff? That's awesome. It's a great motor. Seeing it used in a sports car is just icing on the cake.<P>Maine is a significant state in the Union nowadays (not that it ever wasn't). As a home to some of the better V8 conversions to older Volvos, this company is now also out of there. Interesting.

George,<BR>Actually the guy from Indigo Motorcars posted their car's pic on Brickboard's gallery section. Pretty cool kit car, I just wonder if they would ever consider dropping the T6 instead. That'll be a monster~!!

Wow, that's cool. Yeah, if they could put the T-6 on there, that'd be AWESMOME!<P>George

Well, it seems like the story about this company is that the owner, Jösse Car ran out of money so they quit bulding the Indigo 3000. I think that there were only 42 running cars made. You might notice that the 3.0 inline-6 is from the Volvo 960, not the current S80 2.9 & 2.8 inline-6's. Supposedly, the first tests on this car were done in '96, and production began in late '97 The price for the Indigo 3000 was around $25k - 32k.<P>-Drew<BR>
