"There is a saying in Sweden that goes: “kärt barn har många namn” it means “a beloved child has many names”. That may explain why the 122 station wagon is called Combi, Wagon, Estate, long roof, shooting brake etc. In Sweden the wagon was referred to as a Kombi or Herrgårdsvagn."

Okay I'll bite ...
It's got to be old with the hub cap and beauty rim, but then there is the rotor as an option.
Involved little setup.
Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.

Color - Kermit Green Matt 3004
Right there on the plates.


I think that suspension above must be a 120 based on the hub cap and drums until mid-60s.

I like the look, BUT how practical is a lowered 245 Volvo in snow? There appear to be snow skis on the roof rack.

Steelies are so good looking, valuable and rare that Volvo owners are now locking... their steelies.
