Rare 1962 Blue Volvo P120 4-door. In Working Condition on 2040-cars
Santa Cruz, California, United States
|
This is a blue 1962 Volvo P120 that has been in storage for years. I have clear title...the vehicle history reads "salvaged" on the title. The Volvo was in working order when it went into storage. We jumped the battery and got it to start, though I don't know if the battery will hold a charge. I was about to drive it around for awhile to see if the battery would charge but then broke off the key in the ignition turning it over again! You can see in the photos the half key left, as well as the piece left in the ignition. I could get it out with pliers, but decided it was safest left in the ignition for the next owner to get out and copy. I know this happened once before to my dad. The small key you see on the ring locks the doors. I don't know much else about the condition except that we were able to get it started and it sounded OK. My dad, who was the old car fanatic, has now passed away so I can't ask him for information. You can see in the photos there is some bondo looking repair on the driver's side rear and some rust in the trunk. The odometer reads 33,556, but I imagine there are many more miles than that on the engine! I will happily answer any questions that I can, please ask them before bidding.
Also, in the coming weeks and months I will be selling quite a few old vehicles and loads of old car parts on ebay motors. I will happily assist the highest bidder with picking up the vehicle, but will not pay for any shipping myself or be responsible for anything that happens to the car once it leaves my property. The vehicle is located in Campbell, California. Thanks for looking! |

Geely to release models developed with Volvo in 2015
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Geely and Volvo will finally team up for a jointly developed vehicle, more than three years after the safety-minded Swedish brand was gobbled up by Geely's parent company, according to a report in Automotive News Europe. The story quotes Geely's CEO, Gui Sheng Yue saying, "We have entered into actual research and development stage and I believe we can see the new product in the year after next."
That means 2015, which is a mighty ambitious timetable to bring a vehicle to market. But as Geely's CEO explains, life isn't going to get any easier in the Chinese market, "Competitive pressure on domestic brands in the China market should increase considerably in the coming years as most major international brands are strengthening their presence," he told ANE. Those statements also tell us that we shouldn't expect to see Geely on American shores any time soon. The brand is simply too focused on topping the Chinese market, at least among CDM brands.
Volvo Concept XC Coupe leaked [w/video] [UPDATE]
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Last month, Volvo gave us a teaser of its new Concept XC Coupe, set to debut at the Detroit Auto Show. And now, just a few days before the doors open at Cobo Hall, leaked images of the stylish new crossover showcar have leaked online, courtesy of CarBuyer.co.uk.
The Concept XC Coupe is a sort of high-riding successor to the very attractive Concept Coupe that wowed us at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. With its burlier dimensions and hatchback configuration, the Concept XC gives us a better glimpse at Volvo's new styling direction, which is expected to debut in production form on the next-generation XC90 crossover. We've already seen some leaked sketches of the new XC90, and it sure does look like this Concept XC.
We don't have any further details about the Concept XC Coupe, but from the images, we can see that it will use a four-passenger seating configuration, with rear seats that fold flat. There are also exterior badges for surround radar and a 360-degree camera system, suggesting some new safety tech fitting of safety-minded brand.
Volvo won't go after S-Class, 7 Series market
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Volvo vice president of powertrain engineering, Derek Crabb, recently said that the Swedish automaker is developing smaller and smarter powertrain options that will "turn V8s into dinosaurs" - a statement that could have been our first indication that Volvo is no longer looking to create a luxury flagship sedan to take on German land yachts like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series. Now Automotive News seems to be backing this up after speaking with CEO Hakan Samuelsson, who said that a big sedan wouldn't fit the brand's green image and, more importantly, might not even be a car that its customers would even consider.
Rather than trying to compete in a small, established market against rear-drive, 12-cylinder sedans, Volvo is looking at the emerging, higher-volume premium small car segment to take on its German rivals with the all-new Volvo V40 (shown above). Not wanting to abandon the big-vehicle segment altogether, a next-generation XC90 is due out within the next couple years (and was spotted in some recent spy shots), and it will ride on the new Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA), which will be shared with the new S80 according to the AN article.
