1977 Peugeot 504

I am proud to offer a wonderful 1977 504 Sedan For Sale:

If you are seriously interested. please ask any-and all questions prior to bidding.  I'm happy to let you know. what I know!

This has spent the last several years sitting patently. and awaiting someone to take the time and dedication to bring it back to life. Thankfully. it crossed my path at the right time and place.



Over the past 6 months. it has received a full “Sympathetic” Restoration. Every area of this “Little Green Gem” has been meticulously gone through. rebuilt. and made safe for many years to come.

Le voiture has less than 48. 00 Original Miles. numerous service records. warranty cards. maintenance logs. owners manuals. service manuals. etc.





This fine machine comes equipped with twin solex carburetors (manual choke with indicator light).  ZF3HP22 Automatic Transmission. power front windows. AM/FM factory pushbutton radio. Rev Counter. Clock. Power steering. Power 4-wheel disc brakes. manuallyoperated sunroof. Cigarette Lighter. and along with the original Michellin XAS spare wheel and tire as well.

 What does it need Dr. Mower?

As of now. it could use a new gas cap. The SAAB cap on it does not seal well. Also a battery hold down clamp. if interested. Soon the few rust areas should be delt with.  

Along with its well documented history. this sedan's interior and overall drive quality is impeccable.


The condition of the interior captures the true essence of the era. The seats are incredibly soft and luscious. to the point of ecstasy. One can see why. Peugeot won the prestigious European car of the year title for it.



The ride quality combined with the decadent interior is of course phenomenal. The handling is light and crisp. which makes for an easy and fun drive. It is a car suitable for the young. old. and anyone in between. This prestigious sedan purrs like a kitten. and has the soul of a true Lion

Interior:

As seen in the pictures. the interior is near mint with no rips or tears. The drivers seat bottom does show a little bit of creasing. Also. some of the plastic chrome tape trim has come unattached from the arm rest. The door mirrors have some pitting in the chrome.

In other words. it is soft and supple. Like Peugeot just put it together last week.  
 

This hearty car has had a variety of extensive work done to it over the past 6 months.

Just a few examples include:

New BOSCH Starter. valve cover gasket. belts. fuel pump-filters. carburetor rebuild. plugs. wires. electronic ignition. ignition coil. upgraded 505 Valeo alternator. coolant /transmission flush. oil/filter. rear differential removal-resealing. properly greased wheel-bearings. front rotors. master cylinder. brake hoses. brake pads. rebuilt calipers. 4 Hankook Tires. rebuilt petrol gauge. wipers. etc.

Since this is a later model 504. it has the hollow-center wheels so they can be easily balanced at any tire shop near you. Previous models could not be easily balanced due to solid center wheels.  Kinda a big deal now.

Exterior---------------

The car has a natural sheen to the paint work and chrome. Most of it sparkles in the sunlight. capturing the imagination of any onlookers. However. some parts of the paint work are not great -containing surface rust. chips. and faded areas. Most seems to be contained to the boot lid and drivers side top fender bonnet area.

It has it share of nicks. dents. and dings. The worse of which can be found on the drivers side front fender corner area.

 

Driving:

In the past week. I have put over 500 miles of rural combined with city highway driving usage onto the car. Overall. it has done very well. In fact. just Sunday it took me on a 200 mile roundtrip near Washington. DC doing 70 mph.

Corrosion------------

Overall. the car is very solid. The floors. rockers. subframes. trunk area are all very solid with minor paint chipping. surface rust. etc.

The only serious areas are on the bottom side of the drivers door. This could be easily addressed. Also. minor rust can be found under the hood. drivers side engine compartment (please see picture).  





Exhaust:

This vehicle came equipped with model year 1977 emissions. These forced emission system ad ons were the primary reasons this vehicle became idle for so long. So everything emission wise has been unhooked. routed around etc-for reliability reasons. The catalytic converter is still in place.
The exhaust system is in excellent condition.  

Shipping--------------

This vehicle is located in Maurertown. Virginia 22644. I am happy to offer FREE delivery within 100 miles of Maurertown. Virginia 22644. The car can be driven. towed. trailered. U-Shipped.  Pulled by a flock of Wild Geese. etc. All of which are up to the buyer to arrange.

 I'll help how ever possible. with the exception of the Geese.

 

A $200. 00 Nonrefundable Deposit is required within 24 hours of auction closing.  With that said. it can be refundable- if there was a mistake in description. or an error on my end.  

I would like to have the car payed for in full and gone within 1 week of auction closing (I'm flexible on this-please contact for further details).  Cash in person is prefered. I will also accept paypal for the full amount.

It is being sold As-Is and is being described to the best of my abilities.

I'm always interested in other old. weird. or tiny vehicles. If this is up your area and you like this car. feel free to contact me.

Thanks For Looking!!

On Apr-06-17 at 18:17:12 PDT. seller added the following information:

A few things I should mention.   Down the road the speedo cable should be greased. gets a bit flicky at times.  Where the sun roof handle just touches the vinyl- it has a small rough spot.  
I have some misc. front end bushings that will go with the car(no . it doesn't need them-just nice to have for the future!).  I  ordered a few extra sets some months prior for  other 505's
 
I would describe the car as " If a Mercedes went to college. then half way through the semester- it decided to purse a life of painting. and soul searching".
