    1954 Volvo TP21 Sugga direct from Sweden

    The truck pictures were sent to me by a private owner of one of the 912 trucks. There are lots of different websites devoted to particular military vehicle in Europe. The Volvos seem to have their individual followings not only in Sweden, but in Germany, Norway, France, etc. Sometimes these...

    1954 Volvo TP21 Sugga direct from Sweden

    1954 Volvo TP21 Sugga direct from Sweden

    Greetings, I am a new forum member, along with my recently acquired Volvo Sugga pictured below. It served about 40 years in the Swedish army. It was then sent to the Swedish Army Museum, where it was a duplicate for one already on display. I bought it from a private individual who purchased...
