Taking a long shot here on this one. Ran a thread awhile back worth reading on the CF about this very unusual optioned 62. Might get a different viewpoint here, who knows. I believe car came from California where it sold New from Felix Chev in Riverside. Have NCRS SDR (shipping data report). Car was sold, traded or bought outright by Volvo Auto Museum in 2003. I know History from then to now. Suspect car resided in the Chicagoland area probably since relocating from California. Volvo folks were not very forthcoming with any previous owner info. They just confirmed they wouldn't have bought this car from an Auction house I.E. Mecum, BJ etc. This car shows like a long time Collector owned/wharehoused nice barn find kind of car. But it has been worked on. Some very minor paint work, engine compartment usual mechanical updates with some Napa stuff and FI overhaul at least 2x's. Tires are old bias 6x70x15's correct 1" white walls dated 88. Lots of really nice original stuff everywhere that you would want to see on a 35,000 ish mile showing car. Someone knows this car. Where are they. Anything will help. Thanks. Tom

[QUOTE="50th AEfan, post: 212292, member: 6553"] Taking a long shot here on this one. Ran a thread awhile back worth reading on the CF about this very unusual optioned 62. Might get a different viewpoint here, who knows. I believe car came from California where it sold New from Felix Chev in Riverside. Have NCRS SDR (shipping data report).
