Offering up my white 142s DL in preparation for a new project.
• Chassis type 1423342
• California White (42) – evidence of some older touch-ups, various scuffs and scratches
• Blue interior. Carpets reasonable. Seat fabric sound but vinyl trim poor and door cards are toast.
• Original B20B with twin Stromberg carbs and matching airbox
• M40 4 speed with long gear shift lever
• Dana 30 4.10:1 diff
• GT 4 gauge instrument cluster
• 6in widened 140 rims powdercoated grey by Rattrays in 2018 with VGC orig hubcaps and 205/50/15 tyres @70%
• Spare set of standard rims with 100yo tyres
• Original spring heights
• Current Victorian club reg
• Last Roadworthy certified in October 2017
• Service history (incomplete)
• Odometer indicating 148071 miles
• Drives and stops well. Engine occasionally running-on so possibly still timing, vacuum leak or coked up head to be rectified.
History
• Delivery inspection on 20/10/71 by Volvo Australia, South Melbourne
• Delivered on 15/01/72 by Volvo Car Centre, Elsternwick to Mrs J M Phillips
• Servicing at various Volvo and other workshops documented up until 1999
• Bought by @markc88 in 2015 https://ozvolvo.org/discussion/2741/here-we-go-142s-resto
• Bought by me in 2017 and freighted from Perth to Melbourne
Work done by/through Voldat (big thanks) in 2017 with $3.4k in receipts including
• New windscreen. Orig trim retained with new steel clips. Windscreen body frame light pitting tidied up
• Rebuild and paint front brake callipers
• Front and rear brake hoses and pads
• Idler arm bushes
• Radiator hoses and thermostat
• CD175 Strombergs diaphragm kit
• Filters, fluids and wiper blades
• Various interior trim
Stuff to be finished by me before sale:
• New L/R window scraper rubbers
• New Hepa waterpump
• Rear K-Mac sway bar
• Surface rust in engine bay and spare tyre wells treated
Subject to your tastes and requirements, I had intended but haven’t yet done the following:
• a new interior kit
• lowered and firmer suspension kit
• 123 ignition kit etc
Welcome to inspect in Port Melbourne
Price above ($5400) ozvolvo price. Might be advertised elsewhere, if necessary, for more $$
As they say, not in any great rush to sell and would be sad to see her go
