"It starts and drives, but it requires body work repairs and a complete checkup."

Description

This car was delivered new in Sweden on May 9, 1978, and has two owners. This current owner is a car collector who purchased the car in 2013 and has driven approximately 500 kilometers in the past 9 years while always being housed indoors. It's a survivor because most of these cars rusted away, but it does need body work repairs (see photographs) and a good overall assessment. It runs and drives, and these engines are still popular and reliable, and they are frequently used in kit cars.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    It starts, runs, and drives; it has new rear shocks but sits too high; and it has a new battery. Only the driver's electric window works, thus the interior electric system requires a thorough examination.

  • Interior condition

    The brown velour interior is clean and tidy overall, with faded carpets. The cloth on the headliner is loose and hanging. Classic glass pop up sunroof.

  • Exterior condition

    The main spots of rust are at the rear wheel arches, front wings, and door edges (see photos), but the underbody appears to be solid. In general, the paintwork is good, and the bodywork is straight.

  • General condition

    These cars are becoming increasingly scarce, and this one deserves to be restored. It also comes with some interesting old documentation.

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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
