It has the B20-badge in the grille (1969-1970) on the main image and thumb 1 and 2 but the Iron-badge (1971-1972) on thumb five. On the pictures of the rear we can see three badges; The Volvo badge. The left hand rectangular badge could read de Luxe, Grand Luxe or fuel injection. The right hand badge could read Automatic or Overdrive. It has de Luxe or Grand Luxe wheels but fitted with older Amazon hubcaps which is strange as does snap onto tabs on the rims which these wheels don't have. Is it a metallic paint job? s13a: Is there any view of the front wheel arch? It could help to determine if there was more modifications.
