  Volvo 164 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The lines of the 164 came from the pen of Volvo designer Jan Wilsgaard and were first seen in the late 1950s as a larger prototype exercise called the P358 powered by a large V8, but the P358 was cancelled when the home market was found too small.
Volvo is said to have produced a single 165 Estate which was given to designer Wilsgaard on the event of his retirement from his career at Volvo.
When Volvo was developing the 262C coupé in the mid-seventies, a 164 was used as a testbed.

 Volvo 140 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Volvo 140 is an automobile from Volvo.
Compared to the Volvo Amazon, the 140 was a radical new design with the only similar features being the split grill and some parts of the interior.
Around the same time, the Volvo 164 was produced, which shared much of the 140 series styling (except for the front), but incorporated a 6-cylinder engine.

 Volvo 164
Well, I don't know which Volvo you drive at present, but imagine something like this: You are in a very tight parking space, virtually bumper-to-bumper, with both your front tyres nearly flat and with somebody very large sitting on your bonnet.
All the 164 range were given the B30, in line, six cylinder engine with twin Stromberg CD carburettors until 1972.
The 164 is, when all is said and done, a majestic vehicle and it gives me and I know, many other proud owners, immense pleasure to own.

Historical: The Volvo 164, a genuinely luxurious model based on the Volvo 144, was introduced in autumn 1968.

In 1972 the 164 had a small face lift with a straight, narrow front bumper and a smaller front grill, and in 1973 the dashboard was changed to that of the 240 which was introduced in 1973.

 Volvo Adventures, New Zealand - Adventures - Around Australia Trip in a Volvo 164
Headed west from Brisbane in our 1974 Volvo 164 towing a Millard 12 foot caravan we overnighted in St George the first night and then down into NSW to visit Lightning Ridge, which is a large Opal field.
It was just after this section that the Volvo began to ‘miss’ now and then, (don’t you dare do that way out here!) and after camping in the scrub by the side of the road I only managed 1 km next morning before it ‘quit’ altogether.
No serious problems with the 23-year-old Volvo, apart from what I have described and we noted that it seemed to be the oldest car towing a caravan from what we saw and also one of only 2 Volvos we saw towing on the entire trip.
