Beschreibung
According to the history the owner has received, the car was acquired by Upplands Motor in Enköping in 1980, where it served as a service vehicle. In connection with this, it received its characteristic two-tone paint finish reminiscent of the colours of the petrol company that Upplands Motor represented at that time. Upon delivery, the car was yellow.
During the owner's time with the car, it has undergone several updates. One of the front wings has been replaced with an original Volvo wing and both front wings have been repainted. He has also acquired 5.5-inch KPZ wheels and fitted new tyres, which give the car a period-correct appearance.
The braking system has been overhauled and a contactless ignition system has been installed to provide a more reliable and easy-to-maintain engine.
The Volvo Express is a car with both character and history. And above all, a car that is happiest when put to use. For markets, classic car meetings and other events, it is a pleasant companion that draws attention.

Fakten zum Modell
It was intended to replace the Duett, production of which ended in February 1969. The model was a practical commercial version of the Volvo 145, developed for tradesmen and businesses requiring substantial load space. It was built on the robust mechanics of the 140 series and featured an enlarged cargo area, which gave the car its highly distinctive appearance.
The model became common as a service and work vehicle during the 1970s and early 1980s. Thanks to Volvo's proven mechanics, it was appreciated for its reliability and durability. Today, well-preserved examples are uncommon, particularly when they retain their original commercial or service vehicle character.
