Vehicle Detail

You are looking at my super rare and beautiful European 1966 Volvo P1800S. I has all Euro gauges and mileage is currently at 47,904 kilometers or approximately 29,766 miles. I was told this is the original mileage, and the title states the miles are actual (was the reading from the kilometers taken from the dash odometer). The car is in fantastic condition and has had a soft restoration years ago that has held up quite well. I bought it from the second owner. It fires right up on the first turn of the key (has a manual choke as well). The 4 speed manual transmission shifts beautifully and it also has the working overdrive lever. The clutch and brakes are in great working order. It is a fun driving car that gets tons of attention. The dash and chrome gauges of this car are exceptional and are such a work of art. The dash pads are beautiful. It even has its original Volvo radio. Red carpets are a little sun faded but the black vinyl seat covers are in wonderful condition. The white headliner is nice as well. The body/underside is quite solid. Most of these are really rotted and this has always been a Southern VA car (until I brought it to SC) that has avoided the nasty elements over its lifetime. There are a few small bubbles/imperfections as seen in photos but they do not detract from the overall beauty of this car. All glass is good, and the chrome is original and nice for its age...most of it should polish up quite well. Tires are in decent condition but are older so should probably be upgraded at some point. Paint is quite presentable for a driver. I have the original dual SU carbs and original intake in a box in the trunk. Easy to swap back if one chooses to. The new carb setup is easier to adjust and works quite well. Spare parts, drivers side kick panel (in trunk), original jack and some records come with it. These cars are SUPER rare and VERY hard to find in this condition. The pictures give a great representation of what the car is like. These are selling in the mid-$20's to $30's in restored condition. My car gets looks and thumbs up everywhere she goes. Ask yourself...when's the last time YOU saw one? This is a No Reserve Auction, however I have the car for sale locally so feel free to ask any questions/make offers. I will sell overseas. Any form of payment other than cash must clear before the car leaves my possession. Period. I do not have any interest in trades. My '61 Corvette in the pics is NOT for sale. I have the title in hand. All sales are final, so ask any and all questions prior to bidding. Please refer to the shipping and payment tabs for further instructions. Feel free to contact me through Ebay. Thanks for looking and happy bidding! On Jun-25-13 at 09:04:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Car starts on first turn of key. Drives very well. Tracks straight as an arrow. Brakes work very well, including parking brake. Clutch works perfectly and all gears shift crisply into gear. Overdrive works as it should and even the red indicator light works. All synchros in tranny work well with no grinding. All gauges work except for oil temp and the clock. Such a fun car to drive and gets tons of attention every time I take her out. Thanks for looking and happy bidding.
