[Marky]

Hi Having myself worked for Volvo for over 10 years and having grown up with these cars, my father also worked for Volvo for over 35 years, I have learn to love these cars.

Anyhow I moved to Sweden five years ago, Anyone who is interested in rare models Volvos let me know, as I can source the cars here. The cars will be obviously LHD and Swedish registered.

PV
1800
780
Amazon
ETC.

Please let me know if anyone is looking for something special. see pics too check out examples of whats available.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Hello,

Could you source parts at all? I have a '60-''61 122s the same colour as the one in your pic, be it a little less shiny!

I'm finding it hard to source a replacement interior. My original is two tone, cream vinyl with a greeny grey cloth - but very tired.

Here is the rear - not toooo bad, but the front is terrible!



Cheers

OK - so a challenge then?
My perfect car would be a P1800E Automatic.
Oh - and Right hand drive - I'm unsure when Seden switched, and if any older cars are left, or were they converted to LHD - if so, how would I convert back - or from LHD?
Regards, Mike.

Even when they drove on the left, virtually all Swedish cars were LHD.

The one I helped with cost just over EUR 10K. First class condition. I posted pics of this on the forum a couple of months ago (not to sell, just to show).

A clean, nice example (almost no work to be done) can be found for about £5-10K. One that needs sorting out about £1-4K.

Most of the older ones still about in Sweden are in A1 condition and do cost an arm and a leg. Much higher used car prices in Sweden than in the UK for any Volvo.
