Seller Write-up
You’re looking at a 1973 Volvo 1800ES with a 4 speed manual transmission with overdrive. Everything works except clock and oil temperature gauge.
The car is a mild custom, bumpers and side markers removed, IPD sport springs dropped the ride hide about an inch from stock, has aftermarket steering wheel (original is included), Bluetooth radio, electric cooling fan, otherwise it’s stock.
The engine has strong and even compression, appears to be rebuilt at some point, but I don’t have a proof of that.
