Hi and holiday greetings to all.

I just finished reading thru the posts on the 544 Model G discussion and it reminded me of the last group of Duetts (210) brought to the USA. Since I have one of those cars, I was (and still am) interested in how many, why etc. about that last group of Duetts imported to US.

In a letter I received from Volvo many years ago in response to my inquiry, they indicated that approximately 200 Duetts were brought in in 1967. If I remember correctly they were M models (211341xx).

So, now 40+ years on, does anyone have any information to substantiate the approx 200 67 Duetts imported? How about why they even bothered (although Im glad they did). Somebody told me they all had the tan color interior that year, regardless of paint color. From the cars Ive seen, it seems that the predominant color of that group of cars was white, although I know other colors came in as well.

Best to you all.
Bob
