How many cars?

Post by **classicswede** » 09 Jul 2005 12:25 pm

I see many members have more than 1 volvo.
I have gone to the extreme and collected approx 50 including a saab 96 (does anyone want one?) a citroen C15 2 minis and a f##d escort

dont worry it got dumped here.
So the question is how many volvo's do you own?

One is enough, they never break down so I need only one...

Got a Daf 66 Marathon 1300 CoupÃ© though... just for fun!

Coming soon...

A B204GT will be entering my enginebay as soon as I find one.
And no, it won't fit under the bonnet straight away.
A friend of mine will maka a custom hood with the middle part lifted another 50 mm to make it fit.
He will probably will be making a custom 3" (stainless) exhaust including hi-flow manifold and downpipe.
A middle box will be an off the shelf one from a big engined car...
All I need is some more cash...

Well, I thought I was extreme, but 50, good work! Personally I now have 7 300's, 6 of which are 360 GLT's, one a 340 Variomatic, but on it's way is a special 340 1.7 with a bit of luck. My Dad collects Amazons, and he has 5 of those I think, then there's a 460 1.9 TD in the family, which is my Mum's. Then pickups as well! So not bad really.........

Only one, I pay tax from owning a car, almost same amount of money every year as my car is worth, also no parking place for more than one.

Jabadabuu !!!

Two 144 are history now.

One of them:
Volvo 144 -74

And I swap my Opel Vectra to 360 GL injection.

Still have 240 and too many 300:s

2x4=0

Which is an Australian Vauxhall, but then with a proper engine... (3.8L I presume?)

yeah it's based on the 1960's Buick 3.8lt V6 - nothing like cutting edged technology!!!

Its basically based on the same platform as the HSV's and Monaro's that i THINK have been goin over to the UK in th last few years!
