The Volvo Classic Car Club turns 10

The Volvo Classic Car Club celebrated its 10th year of existence recently, and the anniversary marks quite a bit for it to be proud of.

It has its own dedicated clubhouse, which is open to all members, and it is the only car club in Malaysia to not have a breakaway group since inception.

The club also organises regular drives for its members, which come from various age groups, and it has visited most of the peninsular through its many trips over the years. Its most recent sojourn was north, across the border.

All this has been possible due to the focus and pride of its founding members, who have maintained the club as an avenue for classic Volvo owners to meet and work together at maintaining their rides by sharing resources and information.

The most prominent Volvo model in the club is the 121, though the most significant and popular is the P1800, which many will recognise as the vehicle driven by Roger Moore in the classic TV series, The Saint.

To celebrate its 10th anniversary recently, the club organised a do and invited six charity homes to partake in the celebrations; it also gave donations to each home. Good food, some spirited dancing, a lucky draw and lovely music kept the crowd entertained all night.

So, if you happen to have an old Volvo, you know where you can find kinship. Membership is open to anyone who owns a Volvo that is a minimum of 25 years old. You can contact the club president, Simon Suresh, at 017-3627105 for more information.

Hi guys!! Have you ever heard of sand blasting?? Sand blasting is a process where a certain media is blasted onto metal parts, which in this case, can be just a sheet of metal, a door, or even an entire car. The outer layer of paint, primer and body cement is removed as a result of the specified media cutting its way through, revealing the bare metal on the inside. Sand blasting your rusty classic is by far the best thing to do if you are looking to restore your classic car shell condition to almost as good as new. The paintwork finish of a sand blasted shell is likely to stand out even more, outlining the beautiful lines of your evergreen and unique classic, just like what you see on shows such as Overhaulin’ or American Hot Rod. We are into this business and if there are anyone who is interested to restore their evergreen, please contact us....zafir.wong@cadbiz.com.my

Congratulations to the Volvo Classic Car Club! You know, it's great to have car clubs because you can share your knowledge and resources with people who has the same interest. My car club helped me a lot when I was doing my restoration projects. From teaching me engine tweaks, to getting rare spare parts, the club became an integral part of my hobby.

The rear side of the sedan matches the sporty looks of the front with new style tail lamp cluster and designer slopes.
