Description

This car was originally sold to a lady in Linköping, who cherished it until it was sold to the second owner from Linköping in 2019. The second owner fully renovated the car after it had been stored in a garage for many years. Despite being very solid with only light surface rust, the car underwent a comprehensive body renovation, including a complete repaint in its original color with all windows removed. Interior was in fantastic original condition, with only the driver's seat needing reupholstering. Additionally, the headliner and dashboard top cover were replaced. The gearbox and rear axle were inspected, and the engine underwent a full renovation by KG Trimning.

The third and current owner, also from Linköping, purchased the car last year. As a Volvo enthusiast, they made a few minor fixes, including replacing the choke cable and fuel pipe, and performed regular servicing to keep the car in top running condition. The car also comes with a wealth of older documentation that verifies the mileage, including previous inspection reports.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Starts directly with a super smooth running and sounding engine, plent of power while driving great brakes, gearshifts and a nice balanced road handling. Engine bay and boot space looks wonderful and nice newer 5.5 steel wheels and good tires.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is completely undamaged and in wonderful condition, with all dashboard components and gauges functioning perfectly. There is only one minor issue: a small mark and slight lifting of the headliner on the rear right, near the window, which just needs to be re-glued.

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork is undamaged, with straight panels, good panel gaps, and no rust issues. The underside is rust-free with no damage, though there are some older signs of small dents from incorrect jacking points. Many newer parts are installed underneath, and the car has been very well maintained (see pictures). The paint and chrome work are all in excellent condition, undamaged, and super shiny.

  • General condition:

    This car has been meticulously renovated with a strong focus on enhancing its drivability for today’s roads. With all the improvements made, owning and running this car will be a pleasure for the next owner.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
