1957 Volvo TP21 “Sugga” (“sow”). It may look like a back-yard job where an old car body is dropped on a 4×4 truck chassis; The TP21 is an update of the WW2 era TPV, which was what it looked like: the body of Volvo’s PV800/810 large RWD sedan, mounted on a truck chassis with four wheel drive and powered by Vovo’s 3.6 L flathead six. Its name, Terrängpersonvagn translates to off-road personnel carrier. Built from 1953 through 1958, some of these served in the Swedish military well into the 1990s.
