An absolute dream for collectors: An exceptionally honest, highly original 1963 Ford Taunus 17M "Badewanne" coming with a flawless, extensive historical documentation file from new.
If you are looking for a cheap, patched-up project, this is not the car for you. This Taunus P3 is a true "survivor" meant for a serious enthusiast or collector who values unmolested authenticity, clear ownership history, and a rich paper trail.
The vehicle has spent its entire life in Sweden, well-preserved in a dry environment, and it is currently registered and fully roadworthy ("in traffic").
What elevates this specific Taunus far above other examples on the market is its incredible documentation folder (proudly displayed in the image gallery):
Original Historic Paperwork: Includes original Swedish black-and-white registration certificates (registreringsbevis).
Handwritten Service Ledger: A fascinating, authentic piece of history featuring vintage, hand-written notes tracking maintenance and parts.
Inspection History: Comes with numerous historic technical inspection reports (Bilprovningen) tracking the car through the decades.
Keys: Complete with two sets of keys.
Body & Paint: The car wears a beautiful and highly correct Pastel Blue coat. The iconic aerodynamic "bathtub" body lines are perfectly straight. Chrome bumpers, front grille, and trim pieces remain in very shiny, beautiful condition.
Engine Bay: Exceptionally clean, detailed, and properly maintained. The reliable 1.7-liter engine starts right up, idles smoothly, and runs beautifully.
Gearbox & Drive: The 3-speed manual transmission shifts precisely, providing a pure, authentic 1963 driving experience.
Interior: Features the gorgeous, contrasting classic red cabin. It remains wonderfully preserved, comfortable, and completely period-correct.
Finding a Ford Taunus P3 in this state of preservation is rare; finding one with a fully documented life story from day one is nearly impossible. This car is ready to be driven to any classic car rally or proudly displayed in a collection.
Worldwide transport can be easily coordinated at the buyer's expense. For further inquiries, high-resolution close-up photos of the undercarriage, or a video of the car running, please contact me directly.
