    Hi GrantR,

    Great find! Did your car originally come with Strombergs? I have a '68 144S and it came with SU HS6s.

    Does your car have overdrive?

    A Canadian Boy! I love that color my first Volvo was a 1971 145 that was turquoise. Used to drive it between Calgary and Invermere 39 years ago.
    I have an Apache, plus 2 142s, 68 P1800, 91 740, 64 544.

    Sorry, I should have been more clear...the wheels are original and the tires are skinny 165sr15s from sometime in the 80s...still in good shape though

    That is really nice, looks fantastic. But, tires that old can't be safe, rubber may not be worn but it still dry rots.
