To flip a 44 year old car with no seatbelts in 100 km/h is not the best thing to do...
Note the A-Pillar, the windscreen (witch is in one piece!) is in the right position, the pillar is not.
The skidmarks.
And a video of my car:

I'm surprised it held together as well as it did.You're lucky not to be dead. A word of advice: NEVER swerve for an animal. You have a much better chance of surviving if you hit it than if you swerve, for obvious reasons.

Incredible
Will the bodywork damage be repairable?

I know and I didn't, the problem if you don't adjust your drumbrakes once in a while the car will not go in a stright line when you lock the breakes, as here.
My next car will problably have discbreakes...

No I will not repair this car, will use it for parts or turn it into a convertible.

Ahem, please apologize my question, but didn't have all Volvo's since 1958 sealt-belts?

Not my car, some owner before me problebly though they were unnecessary.
And the law says you must have seatbelts in a car that is from 1968 or newer so the carinspection have never mentioned it either.
