Custom 1966 Volvo P1800s

At 50 years old, this car has been built to last another 50.I'm only selling it due to my permanent relocation overseas. I'm leaving the country August 5th, and am more likely to give a deal before then. If you're interested, let me know.Currently registered in California, insured and with a clean title.

A few quick highlights:

Custom engine built by Phil Singer, the top vintage Volvo engine builder:B20 engine 0.040" overbore and head flow ported.Ross Racing pistons and a Volvo "D" camshaft.

All new upholstery by Santiago Gil, one of the best in Los Angeles.

New custom paint and body work, from bare metal.

Custom wheel fitment by Jewel Tire.

Garage stored always.

All machine work done by Vellios Machine Shop - true experts.

Here are some things that could still be done to the car:

Install audio system

Install air conditioning

Install electronic ignition and have carburetors rebuilt.This would net a small improvement in power and idle, but probably isn't worth the cost.

Get black California plates.

Damp a few minor interior rattles.
