Only a few of those were estates and we guess that even fewer survive •By focusing on allowing the cylinder head to breathe better, along with fitting spicier camshafts, uprated valve springs and tweaked carburation, Ken Rudd was able to build Amazons that really flew. They also offered a handling package (See Seller Rating for details) •The engine of this 221 carries a Ruddspeed plaque on the rocker box cover and on the block (6286) and, as Ruddspeed ceased trading in the early 1970s, we imagine that they were affixed in period •We would like to think that this is one of the very rare Amazon Estates tuned by Ken Rudd in period but can’t warrant this. The research could be fun •JPO 608C was restored in 2003 and still presents well in Pearl White complemented by immaculate chrome and a tidy interior •In dry storage for past five years; recently recommissioned and serviced (with genuine oil filter), new air filter unit, new clutch master cylinder, dynamo replaced, wheels refreshed and new battery •The odometer currently indicates 68,076 miles and the car is accompanied by a small history file with invoices, log books etc. A very rare surviving example of the UK-supplied Volvo Amazon Estate car fitted in period with performance upgrades by the legendary Ken Rudd of Ruddspeed.
