Hello everyone. My fully restored Amazon Estate is up for sale. I am useless at Computers so can't link it here. It's ebay number201210806415. Sorry can't do photos either. As follows:-
For sale, unfortunately, is my fully restored Volvo Amazon estate, a restoration that finished in August of this year. Needless to say it has a full mot and tax, the mot it passed with no advisories. I thought I would be keeping this car for a very long time but a house move is forcing the sale of my car which I am not happy about, someone who buys it will be though.
I waited for 10 months before I got this car and had it fully restored over that time. It is a 1965 Volvo Amazon Estate in blue with a tuned B20 twin carb engine, the head has had some work on it and it runs like a dream and has some oomph to it. This Amazon has all of the luxury parts people who own Amazons like to have. It has the four speed gearbox with overdrive, twin SU, 2 litre engine and is truly immaculate. The car comes with stacks of history and in a previous life was used as a rally service vehicle, it has now been restored to an exceptional standard. There is no rust whatsoever, a full respray has been carried out and the paintwork is spotless. The underside is spotless too and has been fully waxoiled.
Whilst in my ownership I have replaced the interior carpet (Amazons didn't come with carpet originally !) The car sits on Torque Thrust 2 wheels and brand new low profile tyres, the wheels and tyres alone are worth nearly two thousand pounds. I have had the engine worked on, tuned and serviced, new spark plugs, new ht leads, new fuel pump, new chrome exterior mirrors and an excellent 2.25 inch full length custom made stainless steel exhaust which looks great and has made a huge difference.It has had a great deal of love and attention.
I also have a full set of GAZ shortened shocks and shortened springs all round which haven't been fitted and are ready to go, they cost over five hundred pounds. The car looks better now than it does in the pictures as they are a few months old. It has new chrome air filters as the old ones were tatty, new black and silver number plates and the paintwork has been waxed many times and looks fantastic. The interior has been steam cleaned. The list of work carried out and new parts is extensive and too long to list here. The only parts of the car I would replace to make it concours would be the dash top which has a small tear in it, re chrome the bumpers as they have minor scuffs and the headlining has a small tear in it.Apart from that the interior is in exceptional condition and the blue vinyl seats, dials etc are in fantastic condition.
The car has been used daily and runs perfectly, she returns good mpg and everything works perfectly. This is not a car I want to sell but needs must. I will not except any silly offers and I am well aware of what these cars are worth. A great deal of work has gone into this car and I imagine it is one of the best in the country. There are not many Volvo Amazon estates about and certainly not fully restored models with all the added extras my car has. It wants for nothing. Please no dreamers or tyre kickers I am looking for a straightforward sale and one which i'm not looking forward too. I am an honest seller and a classic car fan, there are lots of pictures available and feel free to contact me and come and see the car if you wish.
This really is one of the best. Make me an offer.
Good luck, all the best Joe
I hope you like it. Make me an offer if you are interested.
All the best
