Indeed, but I can't imagine it sounds like a Volvo
Sleeper to me would be that, with twin turbos and good mufflers to keep it quiet. Saw a Nash Metropolitan with a set up like that, 350 small block, twin turbo, mildly tubbed, had wheelie bars. Not loud, tires did not look that big really, did not seem all that much, then the wheelie bars come out

G'day!

Ha - OK thanks - but what's up with those mirrors?
 Also - if there's one thing I can't stand it's taking a classic car and changing out all kinds of stuff so it's no longer stock. Now there are exceptions like upgrading the brakes - especially for track use. Maybe some other stuff too. Mea cupa on my '73 911T 2.4 - I replaced the factory air cleaner with K&N Rain hats. I kept the factory air cleaner though and it went along with the car when I sold it. These vintage Volvos (for me anyway) are so sweet when preserved as they came from the factory. Especially a WAGON!  I see another one just got listed....it's an automatic but low miles so should fetch a good price.... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1992-volvo-240-wagon-21/

The car I referred to in my previous post - located in New York - does not come with a title.

Other than the mirrors I like everything about this car . The hard work is done it now needs finite details performed . Would be a blast to take out on mountain roads !!!
