    Here’s another old Volvo, my previous 1937 Pv 51. This one has a Chevy smallblock and 350 auto now but where built with a Buick Nailhead already in the mid sixties with a frontclip from a 1955 Mercedes 300. This car is for sale over here in Sweden right now with some small front damage after an incident.
