Volvo Bertone Coupe 1980 Very Nice!

1980 Volvo Other Additional Info:

Volvo Other . Condition is Used. We've got something here that you may be interested in. Especially if you like Volvos. Up for auction is a beautiful 1980 Volvo Bertone coupe. This is an anomaly because instead of having the troublesome six-cylinder PVR in it, it has the 200 series four-cylinder Volvo engine that many swear is one of the most dependable Volvo motors ever. There were not that many Volvo Bertones made,and this is one of the better ones. Cranks up on the first try, runs smooth, transmission shifts fine, and the ride inside is very quiet and smooth. This is the perfect car for a Sunday weekend drive. No rust, brand new rotors all around, new radial tires and the leather seats have been treated with leather conditioner. The interior of this Bertone coupe is not what you expect it to be. Most of the early Volvos that were manufactured with leather seats are in terrible condition today, with the leather cracked and foam stuffing coming out from everywhere. Other than normal wear, the seats in this car as well as the overall black leather interior rates as almost perfect! There is heat in the winter and a nice a?c in the summer. This Volvo has been converted over to R-134 so recharging the system is no problem, should it ever need it. At some point in its life, the hood was replaced but all body lines lines around the car are neat and straight. The electric windows work, the wiper, and all instruments are working. Every once in a while I can hear a scratchy noise coming from the speedometer, but not too often. Having said that, the speedometer works and the odometer mileage is believed to be correct for the body. This is a solid Bertone coupe. The paint is decent and nice, with some imperfections here and there. A professional respray is not needed, but would really make this car pop! I have some very rare MSW silver and gold mesh alloys mounted on it now. They are old wheels (with band new tires) but look real nice on this car. The winning bidder will have the option of taking this setup or taking delivery of the car with the original factory alloy wheels (with almost new tire)s and factory Volvo center caps. This Bertone did not come with a radio, but does have a factory-mounted electric radio antenna that I am very sure will work if a radio is added. Overall this is a fine example of the Volvo Bertone and with the 200 series engine, it should provide the new owner with many years of trouble-free service. The photos pretty much tell the rest of the story about the car, but please feel free to ask questions. It has been well taken care of. Never driven in the rain, and should be a very nice investment that can be driven and enjoyed. I am a longtime "Ebayer" with a 100% satisfaction record. Buyer is responsible for all shipping charges and the car has to be totally paid for before being released.
