1973 Volvo P1800 ES Petroleum Blue. Starts, Runs Drives and Turns Heads. !

Vehicle Description

This lovely estate coupe hailsfrom the town of Essex, CT.

A stunning piece of Swedish Iron, it is running and driving. Aside from the driver’s seat needing TLC, you can get behind the wheel immediately. Chassis number is 1836353-006029.

Showing 33,793 miles on the odometer, with great-looking paint, this is not a project car. As mentioned, the driver’s seat needs attention. The owner has researched options for seat restoration and that information will be included with the sale of the car.

Mechanically speaking, the B20 engine with 2.0 L inline-four starts right up and works to its potential.The four-speed manual transmission featuring electric overdrive shifts properly and as expected. This rolling beauty is not only stylish, but practical. The sloped back and finned tail provide plenty of cargo space.

Miscellaneous tinkering to keep your passion alive would include: rear glass pistons need to be replaced, driver’s door opens only from the outside, piece of trim on rear bumper needs to be reattached, and there may be others. There may be other smaller weekend projects, but the guts are there, and the exterior is dazzling.

Test drives are an option on the property, which has a lengthy driveway for your full experience. I am an estate manager, selling this for a family. They are well-versed in the P1800 and are happy to respond to inquiries.

Sale includes: set of 4 original steel wheels, extra trim pieces, options for seat restoration and contact information for a vendor who specializes in the P1800 Volvo and can provide an authentic, reupholstered original seat.
