VOLVO AMAZON (122S) FOR SALE (MAY 1966). SOLD

4 door saloon in cream/ off white, with red interior. Having had a lot of engine, and other, work done, the car drives exceedingly well, easily keeping up with modern vehicles. The mileage reads 92643, but this will change with a little use prior to sale. I have reason to believe that this mileage may be genuine, but it cannot be guaranteed. When I purchased the car, it had numerous leaks/ drips back and front. Now, to my knowledge, there are none.

The interior is in excellent condition, with new dash top, refurbished instrument binnacle, refurbished dash board, and refurbished steering wheel. The roof lining is almost perfect.

The paint is in very good condition, though not perfect and, while the chrome is complete and solid, some is worn.

The following lists some of the work done, though it is likely that I will have forgotten some things:
Full cylinder head refurbishment (unleaded).
New clutch.
New sports exhaust system.
Dynamo replaced with alternator.
