Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Easy to start with the right feel in the clutch, gearbox, and brakes. The latter are completely new, both front and rear, along with nearly unused wheels and tires—GoodYear Efficient Grip from 2021.
Before switching to a modified cylinder head for unleaded fuel, the owner conducted extensive research on the different cylinder head types for the B20 engine. The specific head that was installed is documented with serial number, casting number, weight, and the designations of the modified head.
Additionally, the engine has been fitted with electronic ignition, though a valve adjustment may be needed in the future. A new fuel tank has also been installed. -
Interior condition
Stylish and well-preserved interior, with a complete and clean dashboard where the wrinkle finish around the instrument cluster remains intact. There is some leakage or moisture marking at the lower right corner of the rear window. The floor mat has seen more wear than the rest of the interior. The period-correct Philips radio works perfectly.
-
Exterior condition
Original paint with several touch-ups, sealings, and repairs. These contribute to the car’s patina, though they may appear somewhat unsightly upon close inspection. They are by no means necessary to address for a representative use of the car but are also not too difficult to improve should one wish to enhance its overall appearance further.
-
General condition
A charming history, late model year, and low mileage, combined with the engaging documentation, practical updates, and a representative condition with an honest patina, give the car an overall highly attractive impression.

Facts about the model
During its final model year, the Amazon was only available as a two-door model with the B20 engine, which was introduced in 1969. The car also featured disc brakes all around and standard seat belts—part of Volvo’s commitment to safety. After production ceased, the Amazon was fully replaced by the Volvo 140 series. The last Amazon ever built is now preserved at the Volvo Museum in Gothenburg.
