These two, particularly the blue one, are up there amongst my most favourite things I have ever seen online.   |

We've had the 'before' shots a couple of times, but good to see them restored.
The grille on the 92H looks like its from a Volvo PV/Duette, and I thought the outer grilles on the 95HK were Volvo Amazon, but they don't appear to be quite the right shape?

Pure Scandinavian lunacy at it's absolute best
Anybody else wondering how to get something similar through a BiVA test?

VW bus chassis and an old caravan, wouldn't need BIVA.
|

Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

These have to be among the 'happiest' looking vehicles around. Love them.

Though I've not looked at an Amazon picture to compare. You could build one on any separate chassis and swerve clear of BIVA I reckon. Eriba Puck on a Reliant Kitten anyone? ;D |

That is a ridiculously splendid idea. Now please, I asked nicely, stop with the easy to do silly ideas. I'm struggling here to hold on to my sanity and stop giggleing like a schoolgirl at the thought of taking a self propelled 35ft caravan round Morrisons carpark to do the shopping!

Though I've not looked at an Amazon picture to compare. They're off an early Amazon, for certain. The 120s had three grille designs in their life, and those grilles are off a B16 model. There was an interview with the restorer in a Swedish edition of Sport Klassiker - my uncle in Stockholm e-mailed it me and translated most of it, and the restorer confirmed their origin in the feature. |
