    It's hard to imagine a Volvo being ***y, and maybe this one really isn't to some, but to me this car just screams ***, in a good old-fashioned "damn I just love this car" way. Perhaps some of the components on the car and the way the car was constructed aren't really "traditional", but it's my thinking that the car just says look at me, I'm old , but I'm really not. Thanks to my friend Buz for turning me on to this little beauty. Have a look...

    If this was posted before, please don't turn this into a flaming session. I'm old and can't remember what happened yesterday.

    Love it. All it needs is new wheels / tires and deleting the el-***o suitcase spreader bar deal. Gary

    The wheels kill the whole look, but I like the rest. Not exactly HAMB-friendly, but another custom guy over in Sweden has come up with a concept for a twin turbo V8 P1800.

    Well it wasn't yesterday, it was about 9 months ago. So I guess we can let it slide without popcorn and dead horses...

  16. hahahahaha, mmmmm rosie........

    dig the logo in the grill shell.
    cool car, there is a lot I like and I dont like with it, I agree on the wheels and tires combo is wrong, also I am like the rest and don't like the luggage up front, dont really like the grill either, basically to boxy, but a nice clean build anyways and its better then them producing other types of vehicles, at least they are in the ballpark anyways :)
