Cam got his first Volvo – a '65 544 – in 1987. Since then, he's owned more than 90 Volvos manufactured between 1956 and 1972 (plus a couple newer ones, but they don't count).
In the 1980s, working for Bob Moreno at The Works in Eugene, Oregon, he received expert training focusing on customization, body and paint care, suspension tuning and more.
In the 1990s, he joined the team at ipd in Portland, Oregon, and quickly became their Vintage Guy. Shortly after, Shayne Green also joined the company and together, they expanded the product line and created ipd's Vintage Catalog.
A steady contributor to VClassics Magazine, both online and in print versions, he contributed to both the 'Ask the Experts' column as well as providing specific technical articles on topics ranging from simple maintenance, lighting upgrades, engine modifications and suspension improvements. Though VClassics is no longer active, some of these articles are still available online at www.vclassics.com . Have a look!
Swedish Relics started in the early 2000's, working out of a cramped and damp home garage in SE Portland. More than a decade later, the business became fully legit and incorporated and moved into a 1700 square foot commercial space in Hillsboro, Oregon. In 2021, we moved again, into a slightly larger and far more suitable shop about a half hour SE of Portland OR. We've come a long way.
