You guys are too good~!
It's a Volvo 940.
Not sure the vintage, maybe 1980's or early 1990's maybe but just a guess.

I knew this one may be a little harder, thank you for trying. lol
Yep, it's a Bradley GT kit car.
Here's the story.
Young and dumb in my very early 20's I thought it would be fun to buy a project kit car.
I bought it unfinished and towed it to my house along with many buckets of pieces and parts.
After 20 weeks of working on the weekened I finally had it running and did a "back yard" paint job in Metallic Blue.
Requires a windshield from a 1967 corvette if I remember and had that installed.
In the end I was very disappointed as it is built on a VW bug frame(and title) and the engine was on it's last breath and I got burnt out working on it and let it sit for a year.
Then as I was going thru a divorce I parked it at my mom's house and gave her the title and listed it in the newspaper for sale.
My mom calls me and says a guy was there to buy it but she said she lost the title, oops and I never registered it in my name yet so I gave the dam car away for $500 without title.
Since that day I have never taken on a project car cuz it was too much work and very easy to get burned out before it is ever done.
I don't see many of these kit cars around anymore.

Hint: I first learned to drive in one of these (but without the A/C vents under the dash), and took my first long solo trip in a newer-generation version.

Yep......I Iearned to drive on a '63 Valiant with the 225 ci (3.7L) Slant Six, and push-button Torqueflite automatic, one of the most durable auto engines in history, and took my first solo long trip in a '68 Valiant with the same engine and a three-on-the-tree manual.

Good pics.
Bumping Bitkahuna's car.
I've got nothing but for some reason the tail lights are screaming at me -> Ford and I don't know why.
