zodiac ◊ 2016-06-08 10:52	I agree now, but for a while I wasn't sure if it was built on a chassis for a car (PV = Personvagn = a difficult Swedish way to say it's a car) or a HGV/Truck (LV = Lastvagn = the same but for a Truck). The L 340 Truck was different as it had VOLVO written in a chrome moulding on the hood/bonnet instead of on the front stem as for the PV. Also it usually had four chrome strips rather than three for the PV. Please compare: PV 831 until 834 http://www.swedishbrasscar.com/dokument/volvo19.html . L 340 http://www.swedishbrasscar.com/dokument/volvo27.html . The differences between the latter numbers in the 830-series: - The 831 was the usual body used for taxis. - The 832 used the same body as the 831, but with a window between the front and the rear seats. - The 833 was a chassis, but with a short distance between the front and rear wheels. - The 834 was a chassis, but with a long distance between the front and rear wheels. But as it doesn't have "teeth" in the grille Link to "en.wikipedia.org" , I believe it's been made after the autumn of 1952, that is 1953+. -- Last edit: 2016-06-08 11:08:14
