1972 Volvo P1800E Sport Coupe coupe

This 1972 p1800 is a very solid starting point for a complete restoration or just patch it up a little more, put it back together and hopefully drive it while restoring it like I plan to do if it doesn't sell here while I have it listed.It has been owned by a lady since at least 1987 up until recently but I have no other owner information or history on it other than that.It has NO STRUCTURAL ROT ANYWHERE, but there is a 6 inch hole in the bottom of the frame up near where the front bumper connects shown in one of the pictures-a small 2 inch by 7 inch plate welded in there will patch that.There are also a few holes in the floors and trunk but again they could just be patched with fiberglass of buy and weld in the correct panels The rockers, rear window area,rear valance, rear quarters, lower door edges and rear quarters have been patched some already but still need more work to make nice or nicer. When I got it a few months ago, the engine was out an apart. The head was off and there was a box of most o, if not all the rest of the parts in boxes. The pistons had been cleaned and there were new rings installed also and they and the piston rods were already connected. The story I got was the the engine was stuck and that was it. The block was on an engine stand and the crank, cam and lifters were installed when I got it and it was NOT stuck. it turned nicely and freely. I honed the cylinders and installed the pistons and rods with the original? bearings and it still turns smoothly. The engine is nearly completely back together now as seen in one of the pictures. I did not replace any bearings anywhere, and they didn't appear to need them but the clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing and rear main seal will be new and I have installed a new water pump but the engine is still on the engine stand as of listings posting but that could change while it is listed as well as the price. The interior on this car is in good condition except the dash pads, carpet, and front seats will need to be replaced or completly redone--I still have the frames but 2 2014 Kia Forte? black cloth seats are just sitting in the car for now and go with the car if it sells.
