1967 Volvo 1800 ST1 at Carlisle Import Festival
From Bill Krzastek, owner of one of the white Volvo 1800's used in The Saint with Roger Moore:Hello to all,From the Carlisle Import Kit/Replicar Nationals brochure:
Just wanted to let everyone know that "ST1", the 1967 Volvo 1800S from "The Saint" television series has been invited back to the Carlisle Import Festival this coming May. The car will again be part of the "Invitational Display" and will be located inside Building "Y" which means you will be able to see it and take photos no matter the weather! I willl also be bringing my display items including new photographs of Sir Roger Moore with "ST1".
This really is unprecedented as this is the first time that a vehicle has been selected to be part of the "Invitational" two years in a row! Of course, we all know that "ST1" is a special automobile!
I look forward to seeing everyone at Carlisle and I have attached the online brochure of the event (which includes "ST1"!)
Best Regards,
Bill Krzastek
The focus of the import side of the show this year will be on our friends from Sweden... Volvo. Translated to English, Volvo means "I roll." This Scandinavian favorite will be coming to Carlisle in droves. The Volvo Club of America will be hosting their East Coast meet at the Import-Kit/Replicar Nationals this year. Additionally, Volvo Cars of North America is bringing six of their antique Volvos from their superb collection. They'll be bringing a 1927 Jakob, Volvo's first car; 1956 P1900 - only 67 ever built; a 1953 PV444, once owned by Colin Powell; a 1953 PV444 pickup truck; a '55 PV444 and a 1961 P210 hearse. In the spirit of the Volvo spotlight, "The Saint" car will return to Carlisle. This '67 Volvo 1800S, was originally owned by Sir Roger Moore, and driven by him on the show of the same name.Labels: 2007, Bill Krzastek, Carlisle, Return of The Saint, Roger Moore

My Volvo 1800 will not be featured at this car show. I just got this one -- I've had 1972, 1973ES, 1967, and now a 1965. The interior is ratty, it has a couple minor dings, but aside from that it IS a Volvo 1800. I had some work done on it last week, and I pick it up from the shop on Tuesday. Maybe the producers of the new TV series will rent it from me? :-)
