Vehicle Description
1973 Volvo 1800ES Estate. Minnesota owned car in the same family
for years that has been carefully taken care of over the years.
Every aspect of this car is above average and is a shining example
of an 1800ES. A very rare example having an automatic transmission.
This Estate lovingly called shooting brake is a car that will go
nowhere but up in value. In a world where wagons are disappearing
for the SUV this is a collector that is unique and still holds onto
the glorious time when the wagon was king. Exterior is finished in
a great shade of yellow that leaps off the car with a wow factor.
Chrome trim, chrome front and rear bumpers that all show well with
little to no pitting give the car some shine. Sitting on the OEM
steel factory wheel with chrome beauty rings wrapped in Vredestein
tires. Interior is finished in Swedish fashion wrapped in all black
leather seating , black dash , black carpet and a natural color
headliner. A very little amount of chrome trim and wood grain trim
the dash and three spoke steering wheel to give the interior a
little pop. manual windows , manual locks , black gauges, am/fm
radio and a working clock finish out the interior. Engine is
powered by the 2.0 inline 4 cylinder engine paired to a 3 speed
borg warner automatic transmission. The 3 speed auto transmission
shifts smoothly going through all gears. Brakes stop well and
straight. Frankman Motor Company started in 1988 as a small family
business that has grown from an acreage with a converted 2 stall
garage as the office to the largest independent used car dealership
in a 5 state area with almost 50,000 vehicles sold and over 50
employees.
