Description
This car has an ownership history spanning more than six decades. It was purchased new in 1961 by a man living in Stockholm from the dealership Ernst Nilsson in Stockholm. He remained the car’s sole user for 47 years, until 2008, when the current owner took over. Since then, the car has not been in active use but has mostly been stored indoors in a barn, protected from the elements. Thanks to the dry storage conditions, its condition has changed very little since being parked there.
Before its inspection in the autumn of 2025, the car underwent a thorough check and startup service, during which the fuel system was cleaned and the twin carburetors adjusted. The braking system was refurbished with new brake shoes, wheel cylinders all around, a new master cylinder, and new front brake hoses and rear brake lines. A new starter battery was also installed, and the engine oil and filter were replaced. The car passed inspection without any remarks.
The Volvo is in sound, usable condition and ready to be driven. Included with the car is some documentation, including the original purchase contract and warranty certificate — see photos.

Facts about the model
PV544A: August 1958 – July 1960
The PV544 was introduced on August 25, 1958. Unlike its predecessor, the PV444, it featured a one-piece, larger windshield; a larger rear window; bigger taillights; and a new padded dashboard with a horizontal speedometer borrowed from the Amazon. The rear seat was roomier, making the car officially a five-seater (at least on paper). It also received a new steering wheel and a redesigned steering box for lighter handling.
The 544 was offered in the Standard, Special I, and Special II versions — the latter also available with a four-speed gearbox. In addition, the U.S. engine, the B16B, became available on all markets in the new *Sport* model.
