Description
1966 Amazon 122S with 4 Speed manual gearbox, B18 engine, twin SU carbs. Colour code 79-1, Pearl White (the original colour of this car).
1 owner from 1966 until 2016 (garaged throughout), then purchased for restoration by Peter Ragg who completed the resto in early 2021 and sold on to his customer, whom I purchased the vehicle from early in 2023.
Peter is well known in Amazon circles, being the previous secretary for the Amazon register in the Volvo Owner's Club and a veteran of some 20+ Amazon restorations. Peter commented that this car is the most solid he has ever done, with very little welding required on the underside.
I have a file giving prior history and photos from before and during the resto, this includes a list of all parts replaced (quite a long list). The original engine was in poor fettle, so Peter fitted another B18 engine that he knew to be in fine order.
I had a full inspection and service carried out by Noble Motorsport of Chesterfield around 100 miles ago (£490 bill in the folder) and she is ready to use.
I have an extensive library of photos showing current condition and can send you a link if you drop me an enquiry.
I'm only selling due to loosing my storage space soon, otherwise I'd be keeping and enjoying this car for a while longer. I have storage for a while yet and the sun is shining, so in no rush and not interested in cheeky offers. I'm asking a fair price (less than I paid for it) for an exceptional car that is ready to use and needs nothing spending.
