This 1966 Volvo 122S is finished in white over black vinyl upholstery and powered by a 1.8-liter B18 inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes chrome bumpers, bright trim, a heater and defroster, a Nardi steering wheel, a wooden shift knob, and Coco floor mats. The car was acquired by the seller in 2018, and subsequent service is said to include replacing the dash pad and carpets as well as the water pump and radiator. This Volvo Amazon is offered with the manufacturer’s literature and a clean California title in the seller’s name that lists the car as a 1967 model.
The car is believed to have been repainted under previous ownership and is equipped with chrome bumpers, bright trim, and a left mirror. There are dents in the bumpers and right quarter panel, chips in the windshield, and paint chips around the body. Rust is present on the left floorpan, the trunk, and the lower area of the right fender. Close-up photos of blemishes around the body are included in the gallery.
Silver-finished 15″ steel wheels are mounted with 195/65 Michelin Primacy Alpin tires. The car is equipped with unassisted steering, and braking is handled by front discs and rear drums.
The cabin features bucket seats and a rear bench reupholstered in black vinyl with textured inserts, complemented by color-coordinated door panels and sun visors. The dash pad and carpets were replaced under current ownership. Equipment includes a heater and defroster, a passenger grab handle, a wooden shift knob, a rear center armrest, and Coco floor mats. The interior dome light has reportedly been replaced. The ashtray and left door handle are missing, a tear in the headliner has been repaired, the door paint is peeling, and the rear seat is torn.
A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel frames a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 87k miles, approximately 100 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown. The finish on the gauge cluster is peeling.
The 1.8-liter B18 inline-four is equipped with a pair of SU carburetors. Service under current ownership reportedly included performing an oil change and replacing the water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, air filter, heater valve, and radiator.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a floor-shifted four-speed manual transmission. Additional photos of the underside are included in the gallery.
The California title displays a VIN of 13244VF177015, combining the type and chassis numbers shown on the data plate above.
