Volvo Amazon 121 For Sale

Volvo Amazon 121

HI All,

This is my volvo 121 Amazon for sale. I have had this car for about 4 years and it has served me very well and drives great, at least like an old car. As you can see from the the pics it could do with a good clean, but the paintwork is actually quite good but does have a few flaky bits, crazing and bubble. This car was restored about five years ago, but as a result of using it every day has taken its toll on the paintwork. Last year I had the engine completely rebuilt, bottom end and top end, bored out to a 2 litre from a B18. Twin SU carbs fitted, P1800 aluminium inlet manifold, 4 branch exhaust, yellow type valve springs, P1800ES cylinder head. The car has probably done around 10,000 on the restored engine. Both the engine and gearbox are perfect and starts first time every time as it should. I have had new shocks put on it and there are new springs on the front. As you can imagine from the work done, this goes pretty well for a car of its age and would make a good hill climber if you are that way inclined. There are all the usual volvo leaks, such as the drivers footwell and in the boot, but it is solid and the damp is most probably attributed to the window seals, which could do with being replaced.

There is some bubbling of painrwork around the arches and on the door shown in pics, the underneath is as solid as a rock. There is a bearing making a bit of a wer from the rear differential. Th temperature guage is also a bit intermittent. The inside is a bit on the tatty side as it is all original. There is a CD playear installed with 6x9 in the rear parcel shelf.

The car currently has road tax until March but the MOT has now run out. The MOT inspector usually finds something to fail this car on and will probably be something like a bush or something, maybe a dodgy light or something. Be warned, this car does about 25mpg at best, thus I have now bought a citroen C1.

Cash on collection and sensible offers considered

More pics to come of the side of the car.
