VEHICLE HISTORY/ PROJECT STATUS: | I am the third private owner, I purchased it from M&M Motors, in Appomattox, Va. car was owned by a family in Glenn Allen Va. since 6/15/1949, where it was purchased new from Mooers motor car company in Richmond, Va., (M&M bought it from the heir of the original owner) they are a Volvo dealership today. By all evidence, it only has approximately 62,000 original miles on it and recent oil change records back this up. I will take delivery of it on 8/28/23. It is in driving condition, and has lots of original documents that came originally with the car when purchased new. Latest oil change records in 2019 put the mileage at 59,000 approximate miles. I plan on keeping it roadworthy, and attend car events with it. Plan on restoring it to somewhat original showroom condition. Would rather not do any major restoration at this time until I can ascertain the car’s value in it’s current condition. | ||||
Vehicle Modifications | |||||
MODIFICATIONS: | May in the future convert to dual stainless steel exhaust, and possibly upgrade the electrical system if it is not feasible to keep it as original. | ||||
