Another Volvo 1800 Convertible

1973 Volvo 1800 ES Hot Rod?
With one of the more unusual descriptions I’ve seen in an eBay auction, this car that can “tempt AC Cobras” is for sale in Succasunna, New Jersey where it “burns rubber.” You can find the auction here on eBay… more»
Volvoville Convertible: 1965 Volvo 1800S
