This Swedish-American hybrid fetched tons of attention…

While there’s an odd charm to Volvo’s old brick-like wagons, we definitely prefer something with a little bit more muscle to it. Paul Newman apparently did as well, so the gearhead actor did the only sensible thing, plopping a Buick Grand National turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 into one. We knew we liked the guy on a few different levels but his taste in vehicles was excellent.

This odd Swedish-American wagon was recently featured on Bring A Trailer and people just about lost their minds. With all the attention the listing gathered, bids came pouring in and this contraption sold for a rather healthy $80,740. While we think it’s cool, we’d be hard-pressed to pony up that kind of cash to own it but congratulations to the person who did.
