"Volvo Amazon that was originally in the Sport version, with the potential to be really good. Inspected and ready to drive. The car is nice in the body and paint but needs a change of interior and restoration to the overdrive gearbox to live up to its model name."

"Volvo Amazon that was originally in the Sport version, with the potential to be really good. Inspected and ready to drive. The car is nice in the body and paint but needs a change of interior and restoration to the overdrive gearbox to live up to its model name."

Description

Volvo Amazon Sport that has been in Norrland since new. The car was repainted in 2021. The goal has not been to be in new condition, but rather to get a nice summer utility car for the family to use on trips and car meets. The car has 11 registered owners, but only 3 owners since 1985. The odometer reads 77750 km. It was decommissioned between 1987 and 2020. Despite the long decommissioning, we consider it reasonable that the meter has gone around at least one revolution. Which means 177750 km. The instruction book is missing. The spare wheel and original jack are included.

The owner is selling the car as he has started his own business and finds it difficult to find time for his hobby vehicles.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The original engine has been replaced with a standard B18A. Dual SU carburettors were fitted to the sports models. An overhaul of the carburettors is recommended, as there is some play in the throttle shafts. The engine starts easily and sounds normal for a used B18.

    According to the book, the car should have a gearbox with overdrive, there is now a four-speed M40 mounted in the car. The overdrive indicator light remains on the instrument panel. The ignition lock is a universal model with a start button.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior needs an update. The front seats are very worn. The headliner has some damage and is painted black. The door cards have been painted black and have damage. The back seats have held up well and are the correct green colour, according to the book. The original rubber mats are worn.

  • Exterior condition:

    The body has been repaired by a professional. In 2021, the car was painted in the original colour, light green code 91. This colour was only available in 1966 and 1967. The paint has a good gloss, and some dust grains are present but are not distinctive.

    The boot lid would need some adjustment at the bottom. The car has new tyres in the right size, 165 R15. The rear bumper has been painted with a clear coat. The front bumper and trim are in usable condition. New windshield with new rubber seals.

  • General condition:

    A sports model in normal working condition. Neat exterior. Nice paintwork with some issues. The interior is worse than normal, a renovation of it would give the whole car a lift.

Facts about the model

1966 var 122 Sport den vassaste Amazonen. Nytt för året var att den levererades med högfartsdäck som passade bättre till bilens prestanda. Sportmotorn fick annan kamaxel och höjd kompression som ökade effekten från 90 till 95 hk. Volvo Amazon har under senare år gått från att vara en slit och släng bil, som skrotats ut i en rasande fart, till att bli en omtyckt veteranbil. Uppgifterna om exakt antal tillverkade Amazoner varierar, men enligt Svenska Volvo Amazonklubben är antalet 667 448 stycken. Det såldes 297 000 Volvo Amazon i Sverige under de 14 år bilen tillverkades. 2016 fanns enligt statistiken drygt 8 procent av alla svensksålda Amazoner kvar. Två procent var i trafik. På tio år hade då antalet Volvo Amazon minskat med 13 procent eller 3 572 bilar.
