RE: Volvo graveyard
Hi folks, the red one is an Amazon 120 - most of you know that already - its no older than '65 from the grill but the number system is a bit odd[8D]. So, 'cos its a 2 door its a 130 but it will be badged as 120 or if its a twin carb 122 or 122s. looking at the pics there's no sign of a badge on the wing so i would go for an 1800cc 120. Of course there may be a 2 litre lump.
Yes there is plenty of room for a V8 i would bloody love to do mine as a sleeper but she's to original and worth to much emotionaly - She was registered on december the 4th 1964 24 days before i was born
