Purchased new by the Consignor in June 1972, this handsome one-owner Volvo 1800ES was used daily for just two years until it was reserved for special occasions. During to a four-year work assignment in Japan from 1982-1985, the Volvo was entrusted to the consignor's father-in-law in Houston, where it was garaged and started regularly to ensure good running order. Subsequent relocations to California (1991) and Houston (1994) saw the car carefully shipped in a moving van.
Throughout its lifetime, the Volvo received fastidious care and attentive use; nonetheless, minor mishaps did occur, with expert repairs and regular maintenance performed with the objective of maintaining the vehicle's integrity and originality to the fullest. For example, in 2007, the Consignor obtained a new exhaust system from Sweden, fabricated of stainless steel and consistent with the original design.
Following the consignor's eventual retirement to Nevada in 2008, the faithful Volvo was sparingly enjoyed and refreshed with a thorough major service in 2016, followed by further selective work completed during 2017 and 2021 ensuring the vehicle's readiness for enjoyment. History is exceptionally well documented by the factory-issued books/manuals and original purchase documents including the window sticker, plus the original title and a wealth of service records, manuals and literature.
Numerous spare parts and a fitted car cover are also included with the offering of this wonderfully maintained and presented 1972 Volvo 1800ES in Cypress Green, which will surely delight anyone who truly values the irreplaceable character and unmistakable feel of a highly original, never-restored European Sports/GT car.
