That would be a great surprise birthday present to a spouse if one were
looking for a quick divorce.

I sure did enjoy the 1958 Volvo PV444 that we had in the 1990’s. It was a
mostly original driver quality car, but still a head turner. Someone re-powered
it with a B18 engine which was more powerful than the original B16. During the

I drove one of these in Mpls.-St. Paul while in grad school. To assure it

basement flat, and 2) insert a dipstick heater to keep the oil warm.
Eventually my gloves disintegrated from the cumulative exposure to battery
acid.
