The 14" steelies? The result of German GLTs being so badly equipped. The early ones didn't even have alloys ...

Here's the reply to an email I wrote to the guy upon recieving the pictures:
"Die Bilder stammen von Fingerübungen von Volvo Car B.V. in Helmond. Also die Entwicklungsabteilung der Fahrzeuge die in Born gebaut wurden.

Die Photos habe ich von jemandem bekommen der bei der Räumung dieser Abteilung in Helmond dabei war. Bei einem "Haufen" 480 Bilder waren diese auch dabei."
This translates roughly as:

"The pictures are from practice work done by Volvo Car B.V. in Helmond - the development department for the cars built in Born. The photos come from someone who was present when this department in Helmond was cleared. These pictures were amongst a big pile of 480 pictures."

Shimon, I'll PM you the chap's contact details ...

Cheers
