1965 Volvo Amazon 221 Estate - one owner in lovely condition SOLD

1965 Volvo Amazon 221 Estate
• One former keeper
• Excellent driver, structurally & mechanically good. Drive or improve
• Replacement / rebuilt twin carb (122S) engine, original engine also.
• 4 speed with overdrive
Our Amazon 221 estate has been well cared for and is in wonderful condition, especially considering it is now 57 years old, with only a small dent in the roof and numbers of chips and scratches that have been touched in over the years to prevent rust getting a hold.
The rear wheel arches were replaced and the paintwork is reasonable, whilst it’s not concours it is a solid, useable, everyday classic that can only appreciate. All new brakes, discs, pads, wheel cylinders, master cylinder so safe as a Volvo should be.
The chrome is all in great condition with the exception of some pitting to the over-riders and a dent on the centre of the rear bumper. However, there is a perfect used spare bumper centre with the car!
The seats are pretty good and very comfortable. The rare to find original dimpled rubber fitted mats, are still fitted in good order.
Re-furbished original wheels, new tyres. good hub caps with a spare hubcap in the boot with the spare wheel/ tyre!
Historic vehicle so not MOT'd. In summary not many left driving as well as this one - or as solid. Call for more details or better still - come and veiw.

This Volvo Amazon has been my only car, but not a daily-driver since I routinely walked to work. In my ownership it has been serviced regularly and any minor problems have been nipped in the bud. An MOT tester told me that the rear brake drums were starting to get out of true, but fortunately I had a colleague in the ...

Pricedrop! This much wanted model of the XC70-range, in the best colour and specs-combination, the Ocean Race.

Interior is still great, no signs of wear on seats or steeringwheel ...

Very beautifully restored P220 S with photo album of the restoration. Delivered new in California and only in the Netherlands since a few years. The combi had never seen road salt in California and was rock hard and bone dry. It was therefore a deliberate choice for the current owner to choose this very Amazon. He carried ...

Picture of Volvo Amazon 121 B20 1970 - For Sale

The Volvo Amazon is for me one of the best classic Volvos. It is a very easy classic to live with, great looks and simple robust mechanics. As with most classic cars from this time period, you just have to find one that is rust free. Exterior: If you are looking at this car, there is a very big chance that you just ...
