Ready to Roll: 1971 Volvo 1800E

It may be exciting to stumble upon a barn find, but sometimes it makes more sense to buy a car that has already been pulled out and cleaned up. This 1971 Volvo 1800E had been parked for many years,… more»

Camping Rig: 1963 Volvo L3314HT

If Land Rovers and Jeeps seem mainstream, then we have the perfect rig for you. This is a 1963 Volvo L3314HT and we doubt you will see any others while up camping. These were built for the Swedish Army… more»

French Amazon: 1960 Peugeot 403 Wagon

To wrap up Wagon Wednesday, we have a 1960 Peugeot 403 wagon. Peugeot was right along side Volvo when they started building wagons and some will argue that they were the better of the two. We will let you… more»

911 Compromise: 1993 Volvo 240 Classic

We couldn’t have Wagon Wednesday without bringing up Volvo. Loved by hippies and college professors alike, the 240 is the quintessential wagon. Most people don’t understand them, but in a sea of SUVs and Crossovers, the Volvo 240 looks… more»

Uncle Olaf’s Hot Rod: 1967 Volvo P1800 S

Orange All Over: 1974 Volvo 144 California Edition

UPDATE 1/14/12 – The $2,900 Buy It Now was selected. Sure we would all love to own the aforementioned Shelby GT350, but for many of us, the price keeps it out of reach. Even if we could afford cars… more»

Sports Wagon Survivor: 1973 Volvo 1800ES

The 1800ES has always been one of my favorite wagons, but this one just about made my heart stop. This is an all original, rust free, California car. This car looks amazing and would make a great driver. That… more»
