1966 Volvo Other 122s Wagon
HISTORY:
I purchased this Amazon in Kingman, AZ after it had been setting for approx 30 years. The then owner told me it was being driven back to Berkley, CA from somewhere in the Midwest by its original owner, a Berkley college professor when the Volvo failed. The wagon had zero compression in the #3 and #4 cylinders due to holes in the top of the pistons. The California plate was the old black with yellow letters/numbers and was last registered in CA in 1982.
Now, it is a mechanically sound and very strong running wagon with a new M41 tranny with J-type overdrive. Both tranny and new B18 motor have less than 3000 miles on them. Wagon has been in CA and AZ its entire life, so there is no rust. Paint is original light avocado with perfect sections of patina. Interior has been completely redone, including German square weave carpet, headliner/windlace, door panels, etc… Has updated stereo with USB port, water temp guage, 12volt outlet….dash has not been cut. Everything works on this wagon, and I have driven this car on several road trips over 800 miles, without any issues whatsoever. I would not hesitate to drive this Volvo anywhere. Also comes with very rare NOS roofrack. Has only run with premium unleaded and Castrol 20w50 with zinc-max additive.
I have all of the documentation/receipts for all of this work and will forward contact info on the Volvo master-tech who completed this great wagon.
