[LOTS OF STUFF FUN DELETED]
>As a completely off-the-wall question, did they ever make an 1800
>with a B20, and if so, why didn't they call it a 2000? :-)
Yes they did. I think Volvo started using the B20 in '69. I guess thst since
the 1800 was established they saw no resaon to change names. A little more
1800 trivia, there were three models: 1800S, 1800E, & 1800ES.
The S and E were coupes, with the E being Bosch mechanical Fuel Injection.
The ES was the wagon. Total production, from 62-73, was about 45,000 cars and
most of them were exported out of Sweden.
I have both an 1800S and a '57 MGA, with the Vo getting most attention these
days.
