This 1970 Volvo 1800E is a white-over-red coupe that is powered by a fuel-injected 2.0L inline-four mated to a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Additional equipment includes American Racing basketweave wheels, front shoulder belts, and an aftermarket stereo with a CD player. The car spent time in California before it was acquired by the seller on BaT in November 2020, and it now shows under 191k miles. This 1800 is now offered with transferable New York registration.
The car was finished in California White (42) from the factory, and is said to have been repainted during previous ownership. Details include stainless-steel moldings along the sides, windows, and tops of the rear fins. Chips and scratches are noted in the paint along with dings in the brightwork.
American Racing basketweave wheels with black centers and polished lips wear Goodride Radial SP06 tires. Braking is provided by power-assisted discs at all four corners.
Red vinyl covers the front bucket and rear bench seats, and the color-coordinated carpets are protected by floor mats. Equipment includes a heater, a passenger grab bar, crank windows, and an aftermarket stereo with a CD player. Cracks and wear are noted on the vinyl dashboard pads.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil and coolant temperature. Additional readouts for oil pressure and fuel level are housed in the center of the faux-wood dashboard fascia along with an analog clock. The six-digit odometer indicates under 191k miles, a few hundred of which were added by the seller.
The fuel-injected 2.0L B20E inline-four was factory rated at 130 horsepower. Service in 2020 is said to include an oil change, a valve adjustment, and replacing the accessory drive belt. Corrosion is visible near the battery box.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Additional underside photos are presented in the gallery below.
