Vintage Volvo PV544


Vintage Volvo PV544 Underwent Restoration

Found this the PV series, a vintage 2-door fastback made by Swedish premium automobile manufacturer Volvo. Underwent restoration and was rebuilt almost completeled, Volvo PV544 B16 was released in 1961. The PV series quickly earned a reputation for being strong and rugged, although the design was considered outdated from early on. The PV also competed successfully, in the American SCCA class but also internationally, with a second-hand PV544 memorably winning the Safari Rally in 1965.

The pics as confirm, all looks has a good shape inside to outside with solid appearance and the engine bay looks clean and succeed rebuilt. Interior looks so classic and unfinished, overall is quite easily to finish it. Very nice classic Volvo project worthy to consider, if you interested please read description below. As always, come to see, is a must.

Project, 1960 Mercedes 0319 Panorama Bus


The Mercedes-Benz O319: Not Your Grandpa's School Bus (But Maybe It Should Be)

In the pantheon of automotive legends, the Mercedes-Benz name conjures images of sleek sports cars and luxurious sedans. But nestled amongst the S-Classes and the SLRs lies a lesser-known gem – the 1967 Mercedes-Benz O319. This wasn't your average car; it was a workhorse, a beast of burden, and, dare we say, a funky fresh icon of a bygone era. Buckle up, gearheads and history buffs, because we're about to take a wild ride through the world of the O319.

Born From Necessity: The O319's Humble Beginnings
The year is 1967. West Germany is booming, the Autobahn beckons with promises of open-road freedom, and...well, public transportation needs an upgrade. Enter the O319. Developed by Mercedes-Benz specifically for the burgeoning public bus market, the O319 wasn't built for speed (though it could hold its own on those German highways). It was built for reliability, passenger comfort, and, let's face it, a bit of Teutonic style.
