I'm not too up on the older models, I've never heard of it, I thought that they made only the 164's and the 1800's around that period. A 170 sounds a little off from Volvo's model numbering system too, through the 240's they typically had the series number (i.e.1 series, 2 series etc) then the number of cylinders (4,5,6), then the number of doors (2,4, and 5 for the wagons) so a 245 would be a 2 series four cylinder wagon. Even the 960's and 850's at least kept the series and cylinder numbers mostly in line. Usually they'd add a GL if it had leather, and a DL if it didn't, or a GLE if it was turbo (740 GLE). Anyway, I'm curious so keep us posted.
