Nice spot! Looks like a really clean one too.

So many nice/rare cars now that the weather is finally cooperating

wow! First time I have seen that car!

at my last job we had a customer that drove either this exact same car or something extremely similar and also a volvo. This could honestly even be his car.

I loved it when he came in. Always nice seeing cars like this versus the usual classics.

Would look much better with a chopped roof.

I really wonder how many of these rare types of cars are left vs. the Camaros and Chevelles of that era. Something tells me alot of these types of cars never made it, either account rust/not wanting to keep/ or getting crushed.

definitely not many p1800s, I used to be in the calgary volvo club and there were only a couple members with them (i don't recognize this one though). I would love to eventually own one, such beautiful cars.

Yeah, wicked cars, when I was a kid a guy down the street from me owned one, had the pleasure of walking by it almost every day. Sweet ride.

Probably similar to how many classic Camaros and Chevelles are driving around in Europe.

The wagon version of this car was inspiration for the Volvo C30.
