Good to see so many Amazons still being used. They are rare machines on the road in UK these days.

excellent video, I just returned from going to the 2019 SLO National meet couple of weeks ago and see many of these vintage, and modified Volvos models, not disappointed, upon watching this video it sure showed how carefully Volvo owners maintained these beauties , one thing can be said about attending a Californian car show, never a dull moment at Santa Rosa Park including the scenery of this part of California .

"Meh, that's my comment on those" @28:15. Do you still feel like that after buying the XC90?...:) My last Volvo in the US was a 940 SE - dark grey, auto with a factory installed wing and sunroof. I think it was a '92. When I sold it it had 320K miles. Never needed anything but regular service and everything worked, including the factory A/C.

I’m only really impressed by the V8. It doesn’t ever feel like it has to work hard to move the weight. It’s probably the best thing I’ve ever bought. What’s more embarrassing is that I didn’t know anything about the 164 at 21:00. Now it’s like a whole new me 3 years later.

On the 240 wagons, the large tailgate window came in 1990 and lasted through the end of production. The glass is almost impossible to find. It took me 3 years to find one.

Awesome video, cool to see so many personal touches. In Norway original cars are the craze. I used to own a very unoriginal 121 with 45 webers+++. Thanks for letting me see some americans taking care of the old sweedes.

David this would be a perfect place, to get rid of some of the extra parts either for the Amazon, or past projects, plus it is a way to exchange certain parts you don*t need for the ones that you need or could use.l👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

It really warms my heart to see these old Volvos being taken cared of and actually used! Also i did not expect the Duett, are they somewhat uncommon in the states?

Is SLORolling more geared toward Amazon and not 140/240 RWD? Just curious. But, thanks for your video.
