He was given this responsibility when the Swedish military approached Volvo for an enlarged and more capable successor to his very successful design of the smaller L3314 Valp (\"PUPPY\") 4X4 trucks. Volvo C3 series production began in late 1974 and a total of 8,718 C303/C304/C306 units were produced until the line closed down in 1984. Pre Production prototypes also included amphibious 4x4 and 6x6 trucks as well as a VERY off-road capable 8x8 unit.\r\n\r\nAn inline six cylinder 3 liter B30A motor was chosen to power these trucks and it varied only slightly from the motors found in the early Volvo 164 sedans. Portal axles provide higher ground clearance (similar to Mercedes Unimogs) and their narrow stance allows for easier travel through densely forested areas.\r\n\r\nIn 1974, Volvo contemplated the introduction of these 4x4 and 6x6 trucks into civilian markets including the United States. Crash/safety tests were conducted and these vehicles met or exceeded all passenger safety standards at the time. Importation plans at the time were scrapped as the estimated base price for the 4x4 unit (with all its amazing features and innovations) was expected to be $30,000 USD in the mid-1970s. Volvo officially used the \"CROSS COUNTRY\" name for the C3 series line of trucks back in 1974, twenty-three years prior to their release of the V70 XC (or \"Cross Country\") in 1997.\r\n\r\nDue to their relatively compact overall external dimensions (including true cab-over design), the high mobility 6x6 ground contact and the thoroughly insulated SKAB-manufactured rear boxes, the 131X 6x6 trucks have been and still are prime platforms for high mobility camping. The truck to be discussed is a perfect example of just that concept.", "likes": 6, "timestamp": 1726692327, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 15605761, "authorName": "rbgerrish (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/rbgerrish/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Top speed (factory recommended) 60mph, 55 recommended.
