A Volvo 162 ? ? A two door 160 series Volvo ?

 Labor Day Hodgemans Custard Cruise in New Gloucester, Maine.

Got there around ten AM and parked next to Al Wheeler's red PV544 .

Then an hour later a 162 rolls in . . . . WTF a 162 ? ? But but but Volvo never made such a creature .

Well Terry Sturtevant from Mt Vernon Maine just got done building one and here is proof .

And look at that is has the early 140 tail lights and the six cylinder B30 engine .

 
 It's a '73 164 with a 142 roof , doors , b-pillars and front halves of rear quarters , early style bumpers , grille , door handles and taillights .

Yea its a Volvo geek-out thing .

And it just made my day .
