Low mileage 1961 Volvo missing almost all chrome and grill. Body rough. Engine and drive train good. Leaking carbs. Brakes not locked up but guaranteed not to work for as many reasons that sitting for almost 40 years can provide. Hydraulic clutch in same condition and might be missing as I can't remember if I used it on another compatible car. Bad tires and rotted floor. Started the engine and the drove car in my driveway every year up until three or four years ago when I ran out of time and gave up on any hope of ever doing anything with it. Engine will fire back up with very little work. This car is being sold for the engine and drive train. Everything in pictures is there and will be yours at purchase, but just consider it an extra bonus. Awesomely quiet and low mileage engine is what you're really getting. B16 engine. 1961. I purchased this car from a Volvo dealer over 20 years ago after it sat in their back lot for more years than I can remember. The dealer acquired it after it had sat for years in a barn owned by a local teacher. I was given lots of original paperwork to prove the mileage (which I still have.) It sat outside at my house for about 8 years and the floor and frame ended up rotting out before I decided to give up restoration and ended up parting out the chrome. It has been in storage up until a month ago when I pulled it out to take pictures of it. This car is being sold as a parts car and will have all the problems associated with it. Thank you for looking.
