A renovated vehicle, hard to determine a solid MY. I would say 1968+ with 1972-1973 doors or a 1972-1973 MY with the older front.
The color is not original to this car.
When did they start with the fullpiece side rear window?

It looks like this car from Picture Car Warehouse: http://picturecarwarehouse.net/cars/6238/volvo/145-wagon/
They have it listed as a 1969.

Is that an driver's airbag in APS's link?

Nice shape for a '69. I saw this on demand last night, and I knew it was an old Volvo, but not that old.

You really don't see that many Volvos of this generation preserved like this. Most are PVs Amazons, or P1800s.

I'm not sure, but this might not be a 1969 model year, but a 1972.
When introducing the De Luxe model in 1971, they kept the older grill for the cheap entry model. It had the slower B20A engine instead of the B20D (twin carb) or the B20E (fuel injection).
It was also available in 1972.

I don't know what to make out of the link:
What makes this particular car interesting is that it has the 1971 longer rear window, but not the free flow ventilation system (a black rectangular plastic patch on the right rear wing).
It also has the hazard light introduced in 1970 (not, as far as I know, available in 1969).
It, though, has the 1969 seats without the head rests, but a 1973 steering wheel.
It has the 1972+ doors and the (1971-74) DE Luxe wheels.
It has the BW 35 automatic gear box with a floor gear shift, which I thaught was introduced around 1972. Before that it had a column gear shift.
