Classic Volvo 142S.

When I was a kid dad had a 144S in this colour. This is a bit rarer as it is the 2 door 142 model - the S signifies twin carbs fitted to its 4 cylinder engine. The 140 series received 2 facelifts during its life. The first cars had an all-silver metal grille. This is the 2nd variant. The final 140s had a chunkier front end and massive bumpers hung off it either end.

Volvo Books Whether for the 142S as shown below, or any other type of Volvo, it is worth having a look on Amazon for books, DVDs, Videos etc.

If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular 142S, or 142S in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.

Volvo 142S that I saw at Tatton in June 05.

I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Volvo shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property.

Some vehicles appear at a number of local shows throughout the season, so I've picked my favourite 95 photos from this particular old-car gathering. The other 94 pictures can be found on the main Tatton Park car show page. If I missed your car out, then I apologise! If the 142S featured here is yours then I hope you're pleased to see it featured here. If there were other Volvos at the show which I've included in this image gallery, the links will be further down this page.
