This is like the 8 second van posted not long ago. That was on this forum wasn't it?

Awesome because it is fast and differant.

That's the coolest looking Volvo I've ever seen and the baddest. Beating a 300k Ferrari in your Volvo station wagon, pretty awesome in my book.

Leo, that car is beautiful and is built by an engineer for koenigsegg....

They're modified Volvo P1800 coupes.
Built from '61-'73. 2500lbs, a couple I4 options, etc.

I'm not surprised that there are fast Volvos out there.
Volvo has actually made a few very stout turbo I5's and I6's (T5 and T6 as they describe them).

EDIT!!! after watching all the video i see where they have it all boxed in WOW!! Very nice an different. Only thing i seen id rather have in the wagon car is a scattershield on the transmission, I wouldnt want it that close if it shatters

I never taught I would want a Volvo. So sick I wonder If he builds them for his personal collection or sells them.

GTOSE Jan 9, 2012 02:42 PM

That is sick!

Is that an actual Volvo T6 motor?

Looks like it's not a T6, which was apparently designed with the help of ford.

Looks a lot like a b6294t (b series, 6 cylinder, 2.9l, 4v, turbo).
