Information and History
Here we have a fully restored and Swedish-sold Volvo Amazon Kombi that has undergone an extensive refurbishment and modernization. The car has had 9 owners and is in outstanding condition following a meticulous restoration. The engine, originally a B18 that has been bored out to B20 specifications, underwent a complete overhaul in 2023. Since the overhaul, the engine has only been driven approximately 50 kilometers, meaning it is practically as good as new.
The transmission has been upgraded to a newly rebuilt M41 with overdrive, enhancing both performance and driving comfort. The driveshaft has been shortened and balanced to match the new drivetrain, and all components in both the front and rear suspension have been replaced with new parts.
This Volvo Amazon Kombi is not only a classic car but also a solid example of a restoration project carried out with the utmost care and expertise.
Condition
This Volvo Amazon Kombi is in exceptionally good condition and has undergone a comprehensive total restoration that leaves few details untouched. The body, which has recently been professionally repainted, is entirely rust-free thanks to carefully welded and reinforced sections. New fenders, windshield, and moldings are part of the thorough restoration, making the car not only look fantastic but also ready for many more years on the road.
The car is fitted with brand new wheels and matching new tires, further enhancing its appearance and performance. The interior has been significantly refreshed, including a new headliner. For the true enthusiast, the car features an authentic 123 GT steering wheel, instrument panel, and tachometer from a 1968 123 GT, providing an authentic and classic feel behind the wheel.
Under the hood, we find a newly overhauled and bored-out B18 engine to B20 specifications, equipped with twin SU carburetors, a planed head, and a sportier camshaft, resulting in an estimated output of around 140 horsepower. The newly rebuilt M41 transmission with overdrive is connected to a shortened and balanced driveshaft, and the rear axle has recently been serviced with new oil.
The braking system has been upgraded with new calipers and discs at the front for improved braking performance. The recently chrome-plated roof rack is a stylish detail that complements the car's timeless design.
In summary, this Volvo Amazon Kombi combines classic charm with modern upgrades and high-quality restoration – a car that not only impresses with its appearance but also with its performance.
Service History
The car recently underwent a service in 2024, which means it is in excellent mechanical condition and ready for many more miles on the road. The latest approved inspection was carried out on October 2, 2018, and since then, the car has continued to be cared for meticulously. The service included a thorough review of all major systems, ensuring that this Volvo Amazon Kombi not only looks like new but also performs like a dream.
