Hello!

 

Up for sale is my 1965 Volvo 122 Wagon. I have owned this for about 7 years and had a lot of fun with it. I bought it out in Utah and drove it back to Indiana. I have repaired a lot on the car and have really enjoyed the overall look of the car. 
 

Good

-Refreshed B18 bored over to B20

-New Pistons, rings, seals, bearings, cam, etc. 

-4speed M40

-Runs and drives

-Pretty solid over all 

-Minimal rust especially for the Midwest 

-Shocks and all suspension bushing replaced a few years back

-Just look at it

Not so good

-Just look at it

-One of the carbs has some shaft play might as well have both redone

-Valve cover is leaking a bit

-Wiring has 50 years of "patching" 

-Definitely not a car to restore just enjoy as it exists 

I may consider partial trades for other Volvo parts 240/940/960 or LS stuff.
 

$5500

Thank you!

Gary

There is no way in Hell I'd paint that. So rad.

Yeah, leave the finish alone. It’s perfect.

Man... I wish I had more room. That looks like a lot of fun and a good base for some of the modifications I'd want to do with a car like that.
