Thanks "Leftie". Here on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, I see scheduled for tonight "Nova ScienceNOW...........Preventing the body from breaking down". Are they referring to the P1800 body????!!
Yes, I like old Volvos.....e.g. '58 445 ("Duett") wagon; '65 122S wagon; '67
121 direct import; '74 145 wagon; '74 142; '86 240 wagon; '93 240 "Classic" wagon; '97 850 AWD wagon.Andy I.
That was the ep. They worked the car in in a rather lame sort of way, but it was worth it to see that gorgeous vehicle. My family had
544s, Amazons, P1800s (S and E) and even 140 series Volvo's when I was growing up.That was beautiful. A one-owner Volvo P1800 with nearly 3,000,000 miles on it.
