Dude, how can be this clean with that mileage? Explain your secret!




Nice combo you have here!



Loved this stage, maybe a little lower and wider steelies.
Dogo is amazing

This looks like a great car to own. So uncomfortable I missed one in my area last year. Skipped it only because it was red. Now I'm kicking myself.

Can't wait to see more on the suspension mods required to get it to lay frame. Are you sticking with the B20?

Damn man, this thing is clean AF for having 500k miles! Love how classy it looks, hope the final wheel choice will mantain the oldschool vibes

I figure I should start a build thread for this.

Current status






Brief history: Several years ago I flew my brother and I out to Oregon to road trip this 1967 Volvo 122s Amazon back to Indiana.






Previous owner performed an engine swapped to a ‘74 B20E and replaced the 4spd with an M41 J-Type overdrive for the plus one gear.


Toured Antelope Island in Utah within the Great Salt Lake


Encountered a leaking pinion seal leaving Utah that would plague us the remainder of trip


Arrived home in Indiana and brother and I had to get the cars together for a photo


Made some badge holders - previous owner secured documentation for 374,000 miles but estimates car to have somewhere more than 400,000.


Plan is to install a RideTech RideProX system with leveling, slam RE5 bags in front, and Firestone sleeve bags on a mini truck style drop mount. A single Viair 444c for the air pressures.


Last park before for fabrication
