This 1972 Volvo 1800E is powered by a fuel-injected B20 2.0L inline-four paired to a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Sold new in Westchester County, New York, the car has remained in the Northeast from new. The previous owner took the car off the road twenty years ago, and the seller purchased it last year and returned it to roadworthy condition. In recent months the car has received a new fuel pump, water pump, battery and tires. Older service records are available from the previous owners. This 1800E is sold with a clean New York title in the seller’s name.

Originally bronze, the car was repainted red many years ago. The car was recently repainted again in red single-stage enamel. The door jams are finished in red, though the original color is visible in places underhood. There is evidence of rust repair in the lower rear valence and a repaired dent in the driver’s door. The stock chrome beltline trim was removed when the car was repainted. An aftermarket sunroof is fitted.

The seller fitted new tires to the stock steel wheels. The passenger side windshield wiper currently does not work, and some pitting is apparent in some of the chrome trim.

The cabin is trimmed in tan vinyl with brown carpets. Per the seller, some cracks are present in the dash top which are covered with a carpeted pad. A small tear is present in the headliner, and the carpets are faded. A single DIN radio cutout is present on the passenger side of the dash, but no radio is fitted. The car was originally delivered with A/C, though the original compressor is not installed. It is included, and is shown in the gallery. 31k miles are shown, and the records in the car’s file support this as the accurate total.

The front seats were recently reupholstered to match the door panels and rear seat. The driver’s seatbelt is currently stuck and does not extend.

Power comes from a fuel injected 2.0L inline-four paired to a 4-speed manual gearbox with electronically-actuated overdrive. Prior to the seller’s purchase, the car had been off the road for around twenty years. The seller replaced the fuel pump, water pump, battery, and tires to make the car roadworthy. Older invoices in the car’s file show that the transmission and clutch were overhauled in the early 1990s.

Older invoices document the transmission overhaul and clutch installation from the early 1990s, as well as the fitment of new fuel injectors and lines in 1994. Some other records are available into the 1970s and 80s.
