"This PV Sport is equally at home in the rally forest as it is at a vintage car show. Because older App K cars do not require an orange number plate, they can be driven in traffic on public roads. We can't identify anything that necessitates immediate action while driving in regular traffic."

Description

Volvo PV Sport 1961, rebuilt in 2005/2006 was FIA-approved for Historic Competitions, according to Appendix K. The car is well-constructed and a ccording to the documentation, the bodywork and paintwork alone cost SEK 95,000.

The car has had eight registered owners. It changed hands three times after 2004. The current owner purchased the car in order to make a nostalgic comeback in the rally forest. These ideas have to be shelved due to a variety of factors.

The odometer reads 51330 kilometers. Because the meter has stopped, the total mileage is unknown.

In 2019, the car test was inspected and approved. It is now exempt from inspection as a vintage car. PV rally that works properly.

(See the video clip of it being driven on a winter gravel road in Värmland.)

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Runs well in the engine and drivetrain.

    B18 engine with double SU carburettors, with a stated output of 135hp. Alternator. Close ratio M40 gearbox. Rear axle with gear ratio 4:88 and Dana diff. Brake reduction valve with knob in the passenger compartment. Front discs brake, Oil cooler and electric fan. Springs from Sellholm. An extra spotlight with quick released.

    See the pictures for more information about the equipment.

  • Interior condition:

    Rally seats, four-point belts and roll cage. Aluminium door cards, tachometer. It can be seen that they have spent time and were careful when converting to a rally car. Everything unnecessary has been stripped away to reduce the weight.

  • Exterior condition:

    The paintwork is almost too nice for the rally car.

    The work was carried out in 2005 and has held up well. There are stone chips on the thresholds and surface rust on the lower part of the rear wings at the so-called rubber stone chip protection. See pictures. Straight and nice body. There are some rust spots on the doors. and surface rust on the underside of the doors. See pictures. Equipped with a skid plate. All windows, except the windshield, are made of plastic material. Equipped with aftermarket aluminium wheels and Avon rally tyres for summer use. The chrome and shiny trim are in good condition.

  • General condition:

    Very good overall impression. On the outside, it is nicer than normal for a rally car. It has the right sound from the engine and exhaust system, which is extra nice.

Facts about the model

Appendix K är en internationell tävlingsklass för äldre bilar, både två och fyrhjulsdrivna. I Sverige får bilarna vara tillverkade senast 1990. Klassen är indelad i flera mindre klasser beroende på cylindervolym och åldersgräns. Bilarna ska vara godkända enligt FIA:s reglemente, vilket grundar sig på reglerna på den tiden bilarna tävlades med. Dock är vissa regler "modernare", bland annat säkerhetsreglerna som nästan är identiska med övriga nationella klasser. Det är Appendix K homologerade bilar som tävlar i det populära Midnattssolsrallyt. Populära bilar i Appendix K är Ford Escort, SAAB V4, Volvo PV och Amazon, Opel Ascona A/B, Volvo 140, Audi Quattro, m f l.
