1966 Volvo 1800S

1966 Volvo 1800S

This 1800S recently landed in our garage. We bought it as a driver-level car and tested that claim by driving it home from across the country. It'll be a clean driver when we're done: We plan to polish some of its rougher details and give a few upgrades here and there in preparation for showing at The Mitty and Carlisle. This project is sponsored by iRoll Motors and Tire Rack.
