Classic Volvo 164.
The later boxy Volvos have long been in the shadow cast by the more curvy Amazon range. However I think they are now becoming accepted in classic circles. The 140 series used the 4 cylinder Volvo engines whereas the 164 used a 3 litre straight six. Late examples of the 164 Volvos had fuel injected engines. Alongside is a P1800ES.
Volvo Books Whether for the 164 as shown below, or any other type of Volvo, it is worth having a look on Amazon for books, DVDs, Videos etc.

164 on display at Tatton Park, Cheshire.
If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular 164, or 164s in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.
I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Volvo shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property.
