Volvo 1800 S Barnfind 1965
The world premiere of the Volvo P1800, designed by 'Pelle Petterson', who at the time was working for the Italian coachbuilder 'Frua', was showed at the Brussels Motor Show in 1960. The 2+2 coupé was equipped with a front-mounted 1800 cc four-cylinder with double carburetor, good for 100 HP. Mated to a four-speed gearbox with rear-wheel drive. The car was already very progressive at the time, partly due to the standard disc brakes on the front wheels. From 1961 the P1800 was assembled in Great Britain by Jensen, but from 1963 production would move to Sweden. Production would stop in 1971 at 39,414 units.
"Collection by Vermant" is pleased to be able to offer you this very exceptional Volvo 1800 S from 1965. It is an original Belgian car, registered for the first time on 15/12/1965. This S was purchased by the previous owner in the 90er years from Garage Wenger (official Volvo Dealer in Antwerp) with the aim to having the car completely restored. The car then went to the workshop of a body shop in Mechelen to start the work. Due to lack of time and age, the restoration never fully came to an end. The front panel in the nose of the car, as well as the sills, have already been replaced and still needs to be finished. Furthermore, this is a very healthy bodywork that has also been stored dry for 30 years, partly due to the abundance of wood and sawdust that was in the workshop.
Over the years, the last owner has already had some parts of the car rechromed, which nicely indicates that the owner had good intentions with the car. In addition to the chrome-plated parts, the car is very complete and almost all parts are available with the car. When we look at the front of the car, we can even find the original paint of the car underneath the paint layers. As you might expect, this one was also made in this beautiful color from the factory.
This 1800 S is a transitional version between the first and later S versions and is characterized by its fine grille, thin straight bumpers, but still has the thick chrome ascending trims, also called "hockey sticks". This version was poorly built in 1965 and 1966.
In short, a beautiful and challenging, but also rewarding project to bring this 1800S back to its former glory
