"The car handles well but needs to be spruced up to be really good. A suitable car for renovation. Some GT parts are missing, see below."

Description

A sought-after Volvo model. Here in fully usable condition. However, needs the addition of some 123GT-specific parts. An opportunity for those who want to renovate themselves instead of buying a ready-made one. An advantage is that the overdrive box remains. The car has had 3 owners since it came to Sweden in 2017. According to the information, the car was sold new to Germany.

The current owner bought the car to restore it, to like new condition. He now chooses to sell the car for health reasons. The car makes a good first impression. It has the potential to be really nice with a new paint job and completion of the specific 123 GT accessories such as extra lights and rearview mirrors etc. The odometer reading is 88420 km. The documentation proving mileage is missing. The original engine has been replaced with a B20. The instruction manual and original jack are missing.

The car is inspected and ready to drive. According to the 50-year rule, it is now also exempt from inspection.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The B18 sports engine has been replaced by a B20. The engine has dual SU carburettors. The gearbox engages overdrive without problems. The car starts and runs well. There is some valve slamming in classic Volvo B20 fashion. A certain transmission noise is heard during the test drive. We think it might be the rear axle making a little noise. Equipped with a two-inch sports exhaust system.

  • Interior condition:

    Good seats with only minor wear, with correct chromed fittings and nice door cards. Changing to new floor mats would give the interior a boost. The GT steering wheel is worn with cracks in the bakelite and signal buttons. It has a working tachometer. Nice padding on the dashboard.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car has an old repaint that has received some defects. The paint has cracked in several places. The left front wing has been replaced and has only been given rust-protective paint. The body is straight. There is an indentation on the left door. Chrome and trim are in usable condition. The trim around the front and rear windows are missing. In front of the windshield towards the A-pillars, the panel has been sanded down and then a rust-protective paint has been applied. See picture. Additional lights and the rear mirrors are not the original GT type. Floor wells are rusted on the top side, apart from a small hole on the driver's side it doesn't appear to be rusted through. See pictures. The car is nice underneath and has been rustproofed. The left sill has blisters, see picture.

  • General condition:

    There are some issues. The car is in usable condition and a good subject for a rolling renovation.
