Description
According to the information we’ve gathered, the car was originally sold abroad. Given that this was nearly 90 years ago, this cannot be confirmed with certainty. For further details, please refer to the Swedish National Archives. Due to the vehicle's age, the mileage cannot be guaranteed. The car underwent a full restoration approximately 20 years ago. It presents well with attractive paintwork and chrome details—though the headlight rims show minor rust at the top edges. The PV 52 was the more luxurious version of the PV 51, featuring a six-cylinder engine that offered significantly better performance and comfort. Subtle interior changes also contributed to a more upscale impression.
