§ V.02What moves a car within the band
Within that band, coupe cars are the most frequently traded body style in this set (38 of 129 sales), and manual cars account for 81 of them. Condition, originality and documented history move a car further than any single specification, which is why the middle half of the range is wide.
The spread by variant, printed in full above, is usually wider than the spread by year: a wagon at $13,966 and a coupe at $13,500 are not the same market, and a single median that mixes them describes neither.

§ V.06Questions
What is a 1957–1970 Volvo Amazon worth?
A 1957–1970 Volvo Amazon sold for a median of $13,000 across 129 completed auctions from March 2018 to July 2026 (BidBetter, as of 3 November 2026).
The middle half of those 129 sales fell between $8,500 and $19,250 (the typical range), and the full range after cleaning was $1,000 to $61,000.
What affects the price of a 1957–1970 Volvo Amazon?
Model year: by year, medians run from $10,650 for 1966 (33 sales) to $19,375 for 1968 (20 sales).
Body style: a wagon holds a median of $13,966 on 28 sales, against $13,500 on 38 for a coupe.
Condition, originality and documented history move a car further than any single specification, which is why the middle half of sales spans $8,500 to $19,250.
Is the Volvo Amazon 1957-1970 going up or down in value?
Down. The 9 sales in the 12 months to 3 November 2026 had a median of $6,850, against $13,000 on 23 sales in the 12 months before, a fall of 47.3%. That compares whichever cars came to auction in each year, not the same cars sold twice, so read it as the direction of the market rather than a rate of appreciation.
How many Volvo Amazon sales is that based on?
129 completed auction sales, from March 2018 to 19 July 2026. The table above lists the 15 most recent, each linked to its auction record. The figures were last rebuilt on 3 November 2026.
What is the difference between the typical range and the full range?
The typical range is $8,500 to $19,250: half of all 129 sales fell inside it. The full range is $1,000 to $61,000, the cheapest and dearest sale that survived cleaning. The full range is set by outliers, so it is a boundary rather than a guide to what most cars bring.
Which body style holds its value best?
On this set, coupe is the most frequently sold at 38 sales with a median of $13,500. The highest median among body styles is wagon at $13,966, though it rests on fewer sales. Each variant's median and count are in the table above.
Do manual or automatic cars sell for more?
In this set, manual cars account for 81 of 129 sales. Too few cars of the other transmission type sold to publish a comparison, so this page does not make one.
Does mileage change the value?
Mileage is recorded for part of this set, not all of it, so it is not used to adjust the median. It is shown in the sales table wherever the auction record carries it, and you can see the effect directly by comparing rows.
How current is this figure?
Data as of . The figures are rebuilt from completed sales on a schedule, and the date above is the date of the last rebuild, not the date this page was loaded.
§ V.07Method and sources
What these figures are. Every number on this page is computed from completed auction sales of Volvo Amazon cars built between 1957 and 1970. The median is the 50th percentile of the sale prices; the typical range is the 25th to 75th percentile; the full range is the lowest and highest sale that survived cleaning. Percentiles are linearly interpolated on the sorted prices.
What is excluded. Asking prices, reserve-not-met results, withdrawn lots and unsold cars are not prices and are not counted. Parts, memorabilia, literature, scale models and other non-vehicle lots are excluded. Sales not made in US dollars are excluded, so these figures describe the dollar market. Duplicate records are removed. Sales below a plausibility floor (5% of the median) and above a ceiling (10× the median) are set aside, because a $22 "911" is a data error rather than a cheap car.
What was set aside. The highest recorded sale in this set is $150,000 (1963 VOLVO AMAZON CUSTOM COUPE, 18 January 2020), and 1 sale above $130,000 are held out of the median and the ranges: at that price the lot is a different asset, and including it would pull the headline figure away from what a typical car brings.
What it is not. This is not an appraisal or an inspection, and it does not predict what any particular car will bring. Two cars built the same year can differ by more than the whole typical range on condition, originality, documentation and provenance.
