    I'll get more pictures on Monday.

    One thing I did forget to point out, is that the place I'm getting this car from is the same place my dad bought his first car decades ago, a used '64 Olds F85.

    That's a great car. My mom's first car, in 1967, was a two-door Amazon, same color as yours. Sadly she wrecked it and replaced it with a frog-green '71 Vega, but that's another story.

    There's a shop here in Seattle that caters exclusively to pre-1975 Volvos called X-ray Automotive. Really a class place.

    I've been meaning to visit Seattle for some time. Relatives and family friends are out there. I would definitely swing past a specialty Volvo shop as part of the trip.

    I've been without a car since last fall. I'm going to have to find a daily for the times of the year when driving the Volvo won't do.

    I'm thinking another early 90s Accord, or maybe a big old American mushmobile. Maybe a Roadmaster wagon

    There's a guy in town here whose 2-car garage is filled with one of those and one DeLorean. I honestly wonder which he drives more often.

    It's so uncool that it's the coolest.
