This cool 1973 Volvo P1800ES is now for sale. These great classic Volvos provide a solid investment in addition to the joy of possessing a piece of art you can comfortably use as a daily driver !
Exterior.
Fresh Volvo Gold Metallic two stage clearcoat respray . Clearcoat has been buffed to a high sheen and looks amazing. Laser straight. New chrome and trim. New windshield. Excellent glass. See the pictures......they speak for themselves.
This ES was refinished in the rare factory gold paint. This was the additional cost metallic paint and rare in 1973. The brochures and period advertising, some of which are included, usually featured the Gold P1800 ES with Black interior. Air Conditioning, Am Fm Radio and the 4 Speed with laycock electronic Overdrive topped out the option list. You could downgrade from here but this was the “fully loaded” car.
Wheels, Tires
Unique and rare 5 x 108 alloy Volvo lightweight spoke alloy wheels with polished aluminum rim. New Pirelli P4 radial performance tires.
Engine
Volvo’s amazingly reliable B20 engine runs excellent. Check Irv out here for an idea of how long these cars last. Freshly upgraded Weber carburetor and intake replaces the sometimes finicky Bosch fuel injection for a smooth drive and a horsepower boost. Complete Bosch Jet-Tronic OEM injection system is boxed and included. Factory Air Conditioning is in place and will require at least a new charge. New fuel pump, tune and radiator service.
Transmission
Smooth shifting manual transmission with overdrive works well. No synchro crunching or problems. Smooth clutch.
Braking, Steering
4 wheel power disc brakes have been refreshed and work properly. The steering box was rebuilt to factory specs. Front wheel alignment just completed.
Battery
New Interstate Battery
Service

Trim
The trim is in excellent shape. Chrome and stainless have been polished, replated or reconditioned throughout.
