As I've mentioned here and on the MVS home page, I've been photographing the stack of Volvo publications Neil kindly sent me last week. My goal was one per day, but I was editing today's photos of the Dealer Installed Options 1993 pamphlet to post them tonight, but I found several were out of focus. Blame my crappy copy stand, or... me not ensuring I maintained focus through the shoot.

Anyway, stapled to the inside of the booklet I found this... and the date? November 1, 1992... exactly 28 years ago to the day.

I thought that was pretty neat, so here it is.

Neil, if you want me to block out the names on the document, I will.

Why would someone order the trunk lid spoiler? It was as disproportional as the round spoke alloy rims in the photo above... Just me wondering, taste is useless to be discussed.

America is home to many great things, but sometimes taste isn’t one of them.

Remember, this is the country that put cheese into a spray can.

Those are Cetus wheels, aren’t they?

Definitely Cetus wheels. My favorite 15” wheel on a 96-97 850.

I agree, Steve! Those should be Cetus wheels.
Just way too roundish for a boxy car.
