My diesel collection
Well I started with the 220 Diesel. I recently acquired a Volvo diesel. A lot of history on both. I just wanted to share.

Thanks for the nice pics. I've often wondered what my w123 would look like with one of those nice yakima racks. Too bad a long wheelbase recumbent won't work with those racks. I think these cars look the best when they are daily driver, functional vehicles. Truly timeless cars!

I would love to see more pics of the diesel Volvo, especially under the hood. There was a 240 Diesel wagon for sale near me that used to call my name. Even test drove it once. 4 speed stick with the inop overdrive. Smoked like a coal burning locomotive, but I sure liked the way that diesel sounded.

Yours sounds pritty healthy though. Please be absolutely sure your cooing system is working 100%. When working properly the system can sometimes bairly keep up. Don't neglect the timing belts either ![]() -Jason

Neat. But I have a feeling that by putting your bikes on top might double the vehicles value?
