"It’s surprising to see one of these 1976-1977 models still around. I thought all of them were gone by now!"

Description

The car was delivered new to its first owner in Gällivare, where it remained until the current owner purchased the Volvo. Reportedly, the car has only had two primary owners, and it was taken off the road in 2005. When the current owner acquired the car, he ensured it was registered and passed inspection again. In 2023, he became the owner. The most recent approved inspection was done on November 17, 2023, and after the next one, the car will be exempt from further inspections. The odometer reading seems credible considering the car’s condition.

The Volvo has been serviced by the current owner and is currently decommissioned, awaiting its next user. The ignition parts and engine oil have been recently replaced, along with a new alternator. The wheels have been sandblasted and powder-coated. The car is equipped with new studded tires that have seen little use. Some documentation is included, see photos.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine and drivetrain run well. The brakes feel solid, the car rolls smoothly, and the engine sounds as it should.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is in worn condition, particularly the seats and rear bench, as shown in the photos. The headliner is intact, and the rubber floor mats appear to be in good condition.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car may have been partially repainted. The paint is in fair condition considering its age. There are a few dents and small rust spots, as shown in the photos. The underside of the car shows some rust, and both “spare wheel wells” have been replaced. There is a crack in the windshield, as seen in the picture, and the front bumper is slightly sagging on the right side, also visible in the photos.

  • General condition:

    The car is ready to drive after registration. It is in functional condition, and it’s rare to find a ’76 in this state, as most have rusted away.

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.
