Vehicle: Volvo - P1800
Engine: 2.0L B20E I4
- Sat for last 20 years. Now starting some restoration. Has been modified with 1974 engine, race suspension, after-market seats and seat belts.
- Seems so very low on power after not driving it for so many years. Considering swapping in a modern engine.
- First photo 25 years ago after initial restoration.
- Second photo show current condition.

Thanks Capri335 for your suggestions. It does seem like (if I do an engine swap) that I should keep it all Volvo. I'll research that B230FK. I used to drive an SR20 so I am already familiar with that engine.

Great cars and yours doesn't look too hard to get it back to what it used to be. I am not really a purist unless the car is a concourse survivor. I would say a SR20 DET (Nissan) or the Volvo B230FK if you want to keep it all Volvo.
