Finally a reason to drive a Volvo...

Ran into this while looking at PPR Performances website.

1989 Volvo 700 Wagon. Pretty sick headers.

Yeah, it's Volvette. I figured it's been passed around but I hadn't seen it before.

Sounds like his Dad was a Volvo fanatic and when he passed on, this guy decided to build it in his honor. Has all the makings for an ABC afternoon School special...

Yea that dude lives like 20 min. away from me. I see that grocery getter here and there. He runs around with our camaro's n vettes every once and a great while. He's part of a group called the A-team, they have a DVD out and its pretty sick. My boy bruce with a FRC vette is in it too. Nice quick family car lol.
