This 1966 Volvo 1800S has some unfortunate damage around the front right corner, but sale appears to include a replacement fender clip, and claims of solidity are backed with several promising photos of the outer, lower rockers, floor pans, and suspension components. The car looks quite complete, if heavily sun-baked, and the engine reportedly turns freely as well. Find it here on Craigslist near San Jose, California for $6,500.

The ad is brief, so we’re not informed of the car’s history or how it came to be damaged at the front, but another photo shows a cut-off panel clip consisting of the headlight bucket, grille corner, and roughly half of the wheel opening. Cutting out the damaged part and aligning everything for proper fit will take a skilled hand, but doesn’t seem impossible, and all other needed bodywork should be relatively easy by the looks of things.

Like the exterior, the cabin is heavily sun-baked but complete and serviceable looking, and should probably be a good basis for restoration. These seats don’t appear to be original, but visible glass looks salvageable under a lot of dust, and again, low angle shots show that the underside is probably just as good as claimed by the seller.

The B18 1.8 four seems to be complete with factory dual carbs and air cleaners, if quite grimy and neglected looking. There’s no word on when it last ran, but the seller claims it turns freely and they believe it should start without too much trouble.

There’s some rust on the battery tray, but if the car proves to be as solid as photos suggest, it should be a no-brainer for restoration. We’d go for a mostly stock look, perhaps with a slightly lower-than-stock ride height, some discreet IPD upgrades for suspension and brakes, and maybe a sport cam for the engine. Minilites could be cool too.
