So in all 16 Volvos came and went during the day, and after a very cold start it was a bright sunny day.

Good to see some old friends and make some new ones.

great pics we had planned to go but sadly lost my Dad on Wednesday so have a lot of sorting out to do - maybe another time

It was a cold early start but day warmed up and I thought the Ace Cafe was brilliant; my first time.
If anyone could send a pic of the view of the whole front of the cafe with the cars lined up it would be much appreaciated (left the camera at home!)
Many thank

tdz840 - have a look at link I posted earlier - http://brutalhosts.com/acecafe/

Hopefully there is one or two that fills your needs .. help yourself to it if there is! One or two of Brians might do it too? Not sure if anyone got a big straight on shot of the lineup really ..

Thanks! The underside is mostly fresh steel now though - 43 salty UK winters had taken their toll... The paint has been shocking for at least 15 years though, and in corners still sports some of the fake mud etc applied for its role in a short film back in the summer

There was another Amazon (light blue '67 4 door) that arrived shortly after you'd gone

Cool

Look forward to the FB updates, can't beat dystopian near future stories

Mine was the green 1800 parked next to Pauls Amazon. Unfortunately you dont have any pics of my car in your list.
I like a couple of the ones (850se images) showing the whole of the Ace Cafe Vista with all the cars lined up. I can cut and paste from the forum but is there any chance of a higher res pic?
Thanks in advance

Russ - Have had a dig through the photos I took, and uploaded some more. Hopefully I've found a few that feature your car ...
