1964 VOLVO P1800 RESTOMOD  A work in progress

Witness the rebirth of a legend with this 1964 Volvo P1800, currently undergoing a meticulous restomod blending iconic design with significant performance and safety upgrades. This build features a complete front and rear end swap from a later 1970s P1800, bringing with it a substantial mechanical refresh. The enhanced braking system now utilizes modern dual-cylinder brake calipers for superior stopping power, complemented by a beefier Dana 30 rear axle for added durability and performance. Powering this classic will be the robust and reliable Volvo B20 engine, paired with a manual 4-speed transmission and a Laycock overdrive unit, promising an engaging and enjoyable driving experience true to the P1800's heritage.

Check back soon to follow the progress as this stunning grand tourer continues its transformation!
