"Today, such a condition is almost more worth than a quality renovated new condition. Not monetary, perhaps, but as a historical, empathetic and storytelling value."

Description

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The original engine was thought to be conserved during the years of storage, but the two friends eventually found out that the engine actually had siezed in one of the cylinders. Another engine was duly sourced and restored by a mechanical students at an automotive education facility.

  • Interior condition

    Beautifully untouched with a wonderful preserved interior, the owner has furthermore protected the seats with blankets while driving the car in the recent years of ownership.

  • Exterior condition

    The blue paint on the body with black wings could have been partly repainted years ago, but by and large this car has its old beautiful original paint. The running boards and fittings are available but unmounted. The current owner thought that the running boards made it difficult entering the car so he did not bother to finish them off.

  • General condition

    This must be a dream car for any Volvo collector who prefers the genuine old stuff. A non-renovated PV51 with this provenance; where would you find another one like this?

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.
