Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The engine starts easily and runs very quietly and smoothly, thanks to a completely new fuel system from tank to carburetor—promising trouble-free driving going forward. The three-speed gearbox shifts effortlessly, and there are no rattles or unusual noises from the body or suspension.
Old tires with good tread are mounted on original wheels. All gauges appear to function satisfactorily.
A tow bar is installed, and the car comes with a single key. -
Interior condition
A pleasant, clean, and intact interior. The beautiful red vinyl seats are in very good condition, and with a simple vinyl treatment, they could look their best. Panels, carpets, and headliner are all in well-preserved original condition. The trunk area is also well-kept and tidy.
-
Exterior condition
Externally, there are a few things to take into consideration. Some minor damage, touch-ups, and scratches are present. There is rust on the rear wheel arches, though not perforated. Trim, lighting fixtures, and glass are in good condition. The bumpers are in nice shape. Visible weld seams can be seen on the inner fenders in the engine bay.
-
General condition
A vehicle well preserved in original condition. Ready to drive as it is, or a great candidate for exterior improvements. Possibly an ideal project for a rolling restoration.

Facts about the model
The model was known for its clean lines and robust construction, and it offered a range of engine options. The Amazon was also one of the first cars to come equipped with safety features such as seat belts.
Throughout the 1960s, the Amazon continued to evolve with improved engines and additional equipment options, further contributing to its market appeal. In total, over 667,000 units were produced up until 1970, making it one of Volvo’s most beloved and iconic vehicles.
Today, the Volvo Amazon is a highly sought-after classic among car collectors and stands as a symbol of Swedish engineering excellence.
