    I love Volvo. My dad had a 1965 442 when I was a child. That car was far beyond stock. You could still see the shifter knuckle on the steering column. Any way, the car got smashed. And the next thing my dad parked in the yard was an 81 Volvo 240. I couldn't understand how my dad went from such a beast to what I thought was last rabbit. He worked on that Coco and the next 4 Volvo's till I had such a respect gained for them. That the thought of muscle cars was just sigh. Great cars.
