This 1959 Volvo PV544 has resided in a collection for the past 15 years, during which time it has travelled approximately 5k miles. The car wears a repaint in black over blue and gray vinyl, and it is powered by a 1,580cc inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Details include MSD ignition components, red-painted 15″ steel wheels, hubcaps, vent windows, rear mud flaps, a Kenwood radio, parcel-shelf speakers, aftermarket auxiliary gauges, and front bucket seats. This PV544 is now offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with spare bumpers, further spare parts, and a clean California title in the owner’s name.
The car is finished in black and features a bright grille, front vent windows, bright bumpers, and mud flaps.
Red-painted 15″ steel wheels wear hubcaps and are mounted with a mixture of tires. Braking is handled by drums at each corner.
Trimmed in blue and gray vinyl, the cabin has front bucket seats and a rear bench as well as a Kenwood radio, parcel-shelf speakers, and seatbelts. The condition of the interior is presented in the gallery below.
Instrumentation consists of a 100-mph ribbon-style speedometer and gauges for temperature and fuel level. A trio of auxiliary gauges are located beneath the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 81k miles, approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership.
The 1,580cc B16B inline-four was factory rated at 85 horsepower and 87 lb-ft of torque, and it breathes through a pair of SU carburetors. The ignition system features an MSD control module and an MSD Blaster coil.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. Additional photographs of the underside are provided in the gallery below.
