Classic cars-vintage rally?
Description
1968/69 Volvo 144S. B18 motor, disc brakes all around, dual SU carbs, automatic, original AM radio, new fibreglass front fenders, new non-professional paint in original Volvo cherry red, good interior, new carpet, 3 point seat belts in front, bucket front seats with headrests, brake light rear window, new flex brake lines, new emergency brake cable, new rotors, pads and shoes, all controls, lights and gauges work and original NIKE jack and original spare tire in trunk(were they thin then).
Some metal work in trunk wheel wells.
Extra set of exterior trim,spare clear windshield, 8 extra Volvo pinwheel rims with 4 snow tires. All tires will need replacing for safety. Spray can of Volvo red #46 included.
Balancing of dual carbs has been difficult, somebody with more experience may fix this, automatic shudders somewhat on upshift and transmission leaks some, will try to fix this with new gasket. Carbs have now been balanced better.
Shows 65,000 miles but may not be accurate as I had to fix speedo cable.
Have other projects and short on space.
Surprisingly solid car.
This motor with the SU carbs has good power. Great if you want to vintage rally it. Pick up a 4 speed tranny without the overdrive and go have fun. They were regularly rallied back then.
