Remarks
The Volvo Amazon ‘executive car' was manufactured between 1956 and 1970. Featuring strong articulation front and rear, with slight tail-fins - echoing the transatlantic styling ‘in-vogue' at the time, the Amazon's bodywork was constructed of phosphate-treated steel with heavy use of under-coating and anti-corrosive oil treatments.
