This 1967 Volvo 1800S is is billed as either a parts car or ambitious restoration project. Purchased by the seller from the original owner in 2007, it’s said that the car was originally delivered at the factory and then driven to Rome where it spent the next three decades. Imported to the US in 1999, it’s been off the road since 2003 and has spent a long period of time stored outdoors beneath tarps and eventually ivy that grew to point of covering the car in its entirety. It’s a shame the car was allowed to reach this point, but at the least there’s some useful parts up for grabs. Find it here on Craigslist in Waynesboro, Virginia for $1,500. Special thanks to BaT reader R.J. for this submission.

Photos of the car freed from its long-term foliage home reveal a straight but heavily rusted body with paint that’s compared to latex by the seller. The original color is listed as Pearl White, but a few small areas suggest that a blue color may have been worn at some point. Trim and lighting are removed but a fair number of components are pictured as being included and in much better shape than the car itself.

Glass is complete excluding the rear window, and it looks like the trunk, doors and hood all still open freely. Wheels are factory items wrapped in weathered tires that are still holding air. Brakes are frozen, but the seller says that the car still rolls.

Here’s a shot of the underside which illustrates the extent of at least some of the rust.

A fair bit of the interior is still in place, while parts like the gauges, some trim and switchgear have been removed. The steering wheel is a factory design, and seating upholstery follows factory form to a certain degree as well. The trunk is also pictured, with a rusted gas tank in view.

Looking beyond the empty and rusted battery mount on the passenger side, the engine bay appears mostly complete.

A few rather small components and reservoirs might be absent, but the engine remains along with factory twin SU carbs with matching air cleaners. Factory red paint is also still visible on the block itself, and output for 1967 was 115 HP.
