I think it is a VOLVO! Perhaps PV544.
Clues are rounded, small diameter hubcaps.
Fat bumper.
Turn signal light (right side) mounted above bumper and on body surface.
Radio antenna on A pillar.
Front MUD FLAPS!

The wheels make my brain think "Amazon", but the door, A-pillar and windshield does look far more PV544.

That’s great! (Red sweater and white sweater I assume?)
That fender / hood and overall proportion says 122 to me. 4-door sedan?
Were your parents Volvo people?

It's an early Amazon/121 or 122. The script on the fender was on early 120's. I had a 65 with that a different smaller crest type badge on it. I believe it is a 63 or older based on this picture and a 122S. I may still have a couple of badges like those somewhere.

The picture looks really like that actual car!
Blackbart is right it is a 4 door. My grandpa and uncle had early Amazons, from I think 60 and 61. Unfortunately I don't think I have pictures.

My dad confirmed the photo I posted is circa 1968 Austria. The car he doesn't know anything about except that it belonged to the restaurant owner (in the photo at left) of the complex he coached/played hockey at... Hilti (tool company).
