is this the 363 with the straight 6 and alfa romeo transaxle? Absolutely wicked, I thought they were only prototypes, but they were actually sold to privates? edit: sorry v6...

Its privately owned of the family Walfridsson. Walfridsson was driving a 343 rallycross car in the 70´s. This 363 was a project that Walfridsson and Volvo R-sport office hade together the plan was to make a groupB Class car to WRC.

The car is now in a museum in Sunne owned by Walfridsson family. We borrowed it to showoff on VROM 21 may and Vallåkra in aug.

Its 300 series 30 birthyear this year.

That 363 is quite nice, but it's only a car...
