I wonder how many of us were, um, created on fold-flat Nash seats.

I used to work with a guy who had an old Volvo wagon much like that one. He had a suicide knob on the steering wheel (way illegal) and drove like a screaming Banshee in the snow. Not that Banshees drove Volvos all that much.

It needs more tail lights on the tailgate. :)

Yeah, I was wondering what the hell was up with the wheels. Thought it was parked on a bump or something.

Stratos spotted. Panties soiled.

While the rust on the vertical surfaces is very minor, I think the roof has a different opinion.

Also amazing, the number of pictures—and of such high quality—snapped within such a small time frame.

I love the rear bumper.

I'd bury Coddington and Foose, and I would NOT put in a damned drain.

vortec: Aaaaahahahah! I can dig it.
