1961 Volvo Other

Clear

I purchased this 1961 volvo in early 2015 from a classic dealer in the netherlands. It had a california title and now has clear tx title. I paid $18,000 with customs and shipping. The car runs and drives great. I picked it up on the coast in galveston and drove it to san antonio, almost 4 hour drive. It has made a few trips to austin.
