Steve & Tarona Stanfield’s 1964 PV544
Here is Steve & Tarona Stanfield’s 1964 PV544. It has received serious restoration work, been rebuilt from the ground up, over several years. Upgrades include a new B20 Volvo engine and automatic transmission from a 1975 model, new upholstery throughout and body and paint work. The B20 fuel injected engine is fitted with SUH6 carburetors. Paint is Red Garnet Metallic. Upholstery is black vinyl with red cloth inserts. Steve have had some fun with non working gauges however diligent work has solved that problem. The original headlights were replaced with Xenon Gas bulbs to give excellent night vision, especially with the addition of driving lights Steves last comment “many more small jobs await, but that’s one of the reasons we drive old cars…the joy of working on them” I could not agree more. Working on the cars is sometimes more fun than driving them.You can see (and download) more pictures of my car at http://www.geocities.com/steve_sms/volvo

Ian Hill's vintage 544 race car. Ian is really jumping into racing w/ both feet now...! He passed the first SCCA racing school session in October. He needs to pass another one in March to get his rookie license. This is originally a 61 B16 now with a B20 still original B16 radiator, spec-built as a racer by Dick Reynolds in Grand Rapids, MI (a guy who's been racing his own 544 since the '60s...used to race Trans Am against Mark Donahue!). The B20 is over-bored; ported and polished head; 122 front discs, Ford 9" axles and drums on the back; custom one-piece drive shaft; Muncie trans, w/ short throw; dual Webers; header and straight pipe; Panasport wheels; full custom welded-in roll cage; Phoenix fire system plumbed in; IPD sway bar in front; Carrera shocks all around; Mustang springs, cut, all around.... Hmmm....that's all I can think of right now. Oh, except that the body had over 350 louvres cut into it! Not really functional, but look really cool! :)

David Certain's 1972 Volvo 1800ES
David Certain's 1972 Volvo 1800ES. His dream car. He wanted one since he first saw one in 1975. David is a jazz bassist, and there is enough room for the acoustic bass, amplifier, luggage and a passenger. It is a rust-free California car with 204,000 miles. David is the third owner and he has all the maintenance records. The car needed very little work.
