rodrigo Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 This lovely example of a Volvo 440 TURBO belongs to Antonio Almeida, the originator of VCP (Volvo Clube Portugal), who I had the pleasure of meeting here in NYC earlier in the year. Antonio has a passion for Volvos in general, especially this one, which has been getting restored bit by bit, and at all expenses necessary to have it look as original as possible. Being the first Volvo purchased by his family, it has received lots of love and attention. Since we, here in the US, do not get to see some of the other Volvo models out there, I figured I'd share.Notes:Speedo in in KMDoor shows OEM laminate for stoneguardsEnjoy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antal Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 The chassis and the Engire are the same that equip the 480 Turbo. Only the "cap" was different.I have too a 480 TURBO on rebulding hard work.The car have that aspect because I'm detailing fan too.The 440 Turbo was finished with Klasse Sealant Glaze and Meguiars 16#.For us here in Portugal are not soo easy to find detailing products like for Us people.
