Great patina, and the wheels are nice as well. Love the last pic.

Early front bumper, later rear. Interesting choice.

Are those Volvo wheels? They look "off" to me - maybe BMW 3xx from sometime in the '80s?

I wonder if this guy is just a serious 140-series nut, or if he's running a stealth repair shop.

1974, Fuel cap position you know. :-)

So that's where all the 140's have gone.

So that's 8 Volvos (counting the unpictured later one), and an Insight. What a collection. I like how the sedans are on one street, and the wagons are on another.

@dead_elvis:
Imho those are original Volvo wheels, but accessories, not stock.

Definitely not BMW factory wheels.

Wheels from -78-79 Volvo 242 GT.

Nothing better than spotting good ol' rarities on cold rainy days in the small neighborhood. ;)
