Volvo Safety Concept Car. Predated the 740 by several years.
Volvo Bertone Tundra concept from 1979.
Volvo Philip prototype/concept car from the 1950s. Fitted with a V8 Volvo truck motor ( I think it might have ben the B36) and a two speed auto.

Volvo 263 fastback, there was also a 243 concept which also never entered production.
Volvo Jakob concept car, using a T5 engine, and the bodywork is all aluminium and carbon fibre parts are in it somewhere too.

Peugeot Quasar.
Holden Torana Hurrican concept from 1969, with mid engined V8
Holden Torana GTR-X COncept
Holden Efijy concept car, inspired by the FJ Holden of the 1950s but built on a late model floorpan.

We are equally weird then, I would be very happy if I could have 263carnut1100 wrote:Hey, that was me that posted that stuff on Retro Rides!
I have wanted to build a replica Philip for yonks!
And I like the 263 too, although everybody agrees I am weird with my automotive likes and dislikes.........
