Thanks for the link Bob! I'd seen pics of this car from when it was at the Swedish shows in the summer, but IIRC there was very little info at that time, due to Volvo themselves wanting to saving that for the SEMA show.

Isn't it running an entire 960 front end?

Could be... I'm not familiar with the underbonnet view of a 960. I am with an Amazon and I can't recognise a thing

Looking at the strut tops its not 960. They look a bit like the nissan adjustable tops.

The detailing is very good and all looks very neat.
