Description
Hans-Olof Johansson in Fågelmara is a renowned mechanic and great vehicle enthusiast. Over the years, he has amassed a wonderful collection of cars, motorcycles, and mopeds. These have either been in fine condition or meticulously restored to top condition. He is now choosing to sell parts of his collection as he no longer has the time to keep everything running.
This car is owned by a relative of Hasse, and he writes:
Original car through and through, never welded or repainted. New tires, new brakes all around, and a new exhaust system.

Facts about the model
During the 1960s, the Amazon was Volvo’s volume model and a major success in several export markets. In 1966, Volvo introduced the 140 series, but the Amazon continued to be produced until 1970. Throughout its production years, the Amazon underwent various modifications, but its basic design remained unchanged over the 14 years it was manufactured. New features in the final model years included: a steering wheel for the adjustable lumbar supports in the front seats, a new shock-absorbing steering wheel with a recessed hub for improved driver safety, brake servos on all vehicles, and a dual-circuit brake system. Additionally, new sun visors with more padding and a split steering column for better driver safety were introduced. The last Swedish-made Amazon rolled off the production line in July 1970. It was dark blue, had the chassis number 359726, and was driven directly to Volvo’s museum.
A total of 667,791 Amazons were produced between October 1956 and July 1970, although Volvo’s official figure is 667,323 cars.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
