Sure isn't getting much action, especially given the current state of the used car market. A few hours left and it hasn't even made it to the price it made on BaT the last time around.
Now, about those seats...

Fruits of the 1800 tree landed again, this one also in the Loving Embrace of a dealer.
Under bits look good, already getting some traction.

I thought these came originally with a 1400cc engine capacity? The B16 is tough to get parts for. Do like the car though my preference is a late Duett with the B18 or replaced with a B20 motor. Nearly bought this one a few years ago but a pending house move prevented it happening. Owner was a long time mechanic and serial Volvo owner. Happily he decided to save pickle and got her road worthy again. She had a B20 motor fitted and was fairly spry he told me!

The car was a little rough but was well loved!

My '57 Basket Duett came with the 1400 - and a 5.88 rear - but sadly is missing the roof rack.
And a floor.
And a radiator.
And the front clip is in the rafters.
Aside from that...

Jim gave this one high praise, and said he would be in the bidding if not for the fact he can no longer drive a manual.
