All original 1964 Volvo 1800s w/Overdrive. Owned by celebrity Shane Woodson (Hollywood actor/director). This is the most original and nicest 1800s you will find for the price. Stunning condition! The car looks much better in person and I would encourage anyone serious about the car to come see it before the auction ends. The interior has been professionally restored and needs nothing.This car has 35,297 original miles and is a very strong runner. The car performs and sounds like a little vintage race car. The family of the original owners claim the mileage to be original. My Volvo mechanic, who has specialized in 1800's for over 40 years says this is the most original and best condition one for the age he has ever seen. Bar none! The prevoius title listed the mileage at 32,350. Currently in use as my daily driver and only car. The NADA classic car value for this 1800s falls between $15,700 and $25,000 in its present condition. This black plate California classic is ready to ride anywhere. No expense has been spared mechanically on this Swedish treasure. Recent work includes: new bushings on front and rear suspension, rebuilt fuel tank, new brake lines, new brake sending unit, rebuilt original radiator, rebuilt speedometer and tachometer, new fuel tank sending unit, new trunk seal (new picture coming soon), new water pump, New wiper blades, new fuel pump, Bosch 007 distributor with petronix electronic ignition, new plugs, front seats re-upholstered, new plug wires, new shocks, new steering coupler, new heater valve, new radiator hoses, new thermostat, new steering arms, new master cylinder, rebuilt calipers, new brake pads, rebuilt original SU carbs, new air filters, full tune up, and all fluids changed. As all Volvo 1800s enthusiasts know this is the year and color code of the car made famous in the 1960's TV show "The Saint" starring Roger Moore. This 1800s is numbers matching and is 100% original. The car includes a rare Blaupunkt "Frankfurt" am/fm/shortwave radio, original tool kit, all manuals, original paint job (in great shape). This is a RUST FREE car with all original parts. The original guages are in great shape with no cracks and crystal clear glass. A very rare find. All 8 body seams are in perfect condition with no rust or damage. The rocker panels, floor pans, jack supports and body is in great condition. Again, there is NO RUST on this car. All body panels are 100% original and have never been replaced. The original bumpers and trim work is all 100% original and in perfect shape. The underside of the car is 100% rust and damage free. The paint is the original "Pearl White" with original red interior that is in perfect condition. The window glass is perfect as well. The original Volvo paint job is very nice, and you would be hard pressed to find original 48 year old paint as nice. This 1964 classic needs nothing mechanically and makes for an excellent investment as these cars were manufactured in very low numbers. These are tremendously undervalued cars. A basic, lower end 2012 car sells for around $10,000 more than my opening bid. The original door panels are restored and in great shape. The headliner is original and in perfect condition. The original dash pad has been restored and is in great shape (new picture showing the dash next week). Most 1800s enthusiasts agree that 1964 is the year to have. The model year features the classic "bull horn" front bumper, overdrive switch on the dash, dual SU carbs, beautiful instruments, and stylish steering wheel. The engine is in amazing condition with 170lb's of compression on each cylinder. The engine is very strong and does not smoke.This car is very quick, and shifts and drives excellent. The overdrive works flawlessly and is a blast to engage on the freeway. You will be hard pressed to find a better 1964 Volvo 1800s. The title is free and clear and the registration is good through March 2013. Don't miss your chance to own this classic. Please do not ask me to end the auction early for a cash offer. The car will sell to the highest bidder. Any questions, call Shane at: 323-350-1972. The car will be available for viewing on November 9th, 2012 at Bob's Big Boy classic car show from 3 to 9pm on 4211 W. Riverside Drive in Burbank, CA 91505. Bid with confidence as I have a 100% Ebay rating. I will assist the new owner with shipping any way possible. Full payment to be made in 1 week. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction close. Good luck bidding!
