Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1970 Volvo 142S, with 550,000 miles, features a 2.0L B20 engine and a 4-speed manual transmission, recently updated with SU carburetors. Despite a single owner history and recommissioning for sale, it exhibits considerable cosmetic wear on the exterior and interior, including paint issues and dashboard cracks, indicating a need for restoration.
Condition
4
The car has very high mileage (550k) and shows significant cosmetic wear including thin/missing paint, corrosion, and damage on various surfaces. The interior also shows cracks in the seat trim and dashboard, and corrosion on the dash face. While mechanically functional with a rebuilt engine and recent tune-up, the cosmetic issues necessitate reconditioning.
