5k: All Saints' Day: 1966 Volvo 1800S

 All Saints' Day (Nov 1) is the celebration in the Roman Catholic (plus Eastern Orthodox and Anglican) tradition of those who have attained the beatific vision, but here at the Daily Turismo we have a tradition of posting a slightly less than beatific version of Roger Moore's ride from the hit 60s TV show called the Saint.  Here it is.  Find this 1966 Volvo 1800 S currently bidding for $1,880 reserve-not-met with $5,500 buy-it-now on eBay, located in Reno, NV with 1 day to go.

5k All-Saints Day: 1970 Volvo P1800, Low Miles

The Saint was a British TV show from the 1960s staring Roger Moore as a James Bond mixed with Robin Hood character.  The main character's ride was a white Volvo P1800 and it was a regular part of the show.  Today in celebration of All Saints Day, the Roman Catholic celebration of those who have attained the beatific vision in Heaven, we are going to celebrate with nothing but Volvo P1800s.  While not exactly beatific in its vision - this first 1970 Volvo P1800 is available in Epping, NH via craigslist and is claimed to have only 14,000 original miles.
