BODY OVERVIEW:
This 1971 Volvo 1800E is a true survivor, showcasing the timeless design that has made it a beloved classic. The body is in nice, original condition, reflecting its well-preserved state over the decades, due in part to its low mileage and proper maintenance by the original owner. The underside is also in highly original condition, and there are some small areas of corrosion shown in the photos.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Wearing an older repaint, this Volvo’s exterior still presents nicely. The paint has held up well, though some imperfections are present, as one might expect from an unrestored car of this vintage. The paint shows well, and we would present this car as a high-level, driver-condition vehicle. Please see photos.
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Step inside, and you’ll find an interior that has been preserved in its original form. The seats, dashboard, and trim all maintain their vintage charm and are in nice condition. It should be noted that there is a dash cap on the upper dash pad, and a small split on the lower dash pad. Overall, the interior presents beautifully and is a testament to the care this Volvo has seen over the years. This car’s interior offers a genuine glimpse into the past, providing a beautifully nostalgic driving experience!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Mechanically, this Volvo 1800E has been meticulously maintained, with service records dating back to the year it was sold. Combined with the low mileage, that makes for one solid car! Under the hood, this Volvo is nearly all original, cementing it into the survivor category. A plethora of service records tell the story on this Swedish beauty, and its 40-year romance with the original owner. This car is a wonderful example of Volvo’s legendary durability and engineering.
