@ Ace McGraw, exactly what I always thought. I always thought that everything aft of the front end took a major design Que from the 46-48 ford sedans. this is a great Volvo, probably my favorite Volvo of all time. It's great to see an enthusiastic owner in the pictures. I would have loved to chat up the owner and look over every detail of his beautiful ride.
i like tiny cars, but the disappointing thing about these is how small they are inside, and the awkward, tiny, un-ergonomic side windows. i recall that i couldn't really roll down the window and hang my elbow on the sill in a comfortable seating position--which is a big part of the old-timey driving experience for me.
Best of OPC.

What a cool car and look how happy the guy is that you appreciated it too! Ahhhh...you made his day!
Dang! Now that's an OPC that I wouldn't mind having.
Sure the guys smiling. Who wouldn't? The show-off...Heck that's a darn nice Volvo. That's a heckuva lucky find.
Great job, Benster
He and heather would make a cute couple. I think she would like his Volvo too.
i miss heather.
I always think it's strange that this is a 1963 car. It looks like an American car from the 1940s...

really nice sunset colors in the clouds there.
Heather is Calluna Vulgaris. She is a bonnie lass.
Jaffarians is still in business, and still selling Volvo's about 2 miles from where I live, Weird that car ended up so far away.
Hey all,
I'm the guy in the photos with the car. Yep, this car makes me happy.

Well, Chris, I think you're adorable. I love your car and you're smile. Oh, and your hat...I love a guy in a driving hat. Good life to you.
