Vehicle Description
Very popular car in Europe but rarely seen here in the United
States. It is a very solid car that lived in California then North
Carolina. Currently owned by an avid car collector. He drove it
here over an hour troublefree. Actually he insisted that I went for
a drive with him once he got to Volo. The functions really well.
1962 featured the new B18 motor designed for the Volvo P1800
sportscar. It has 5 main bearings and dual carbs. Another big
improvement for 1962 is the update from 6 to 12 volt electrical
systems.
It's a good looker too. Has resemblance to American cars from the
40s. Upfront it has has bumper guard, swedish license plate and
grill medallions. In back it has bumper gaurds and reverse light.
White wall tires dress it up too. Overall the body, paint and
chrome are in very good shape.
Inside is also very good. Has red upholstery with bucket seats in
front. There is a custom made console around the floor shift
4-speed. Rare Am-Fm radio and aircraft style seatbelts. Motor
compartment is very clean and proper. Trunk is clean, has matching
white wall tire for a spare. Underneath is solid and proper.
Interesting, fun car.
