 I have a 1967 Volvo 122 S Amzon for sale.One of the coolest cars volvo ever made in my opinion.
These cars rarely come up for sale and specially in this condition.
 This volvo is a dry california car that spent most of its life in the garage.Owned and cared for by a true volvo enthusiast.
This Volvo was originally an automatic.
This volvo was literally saved from the crusher.It ended up at the junkyard because of the bad automatic transmission.
But this was a great opportunity to swap a 4 speed manual transmission and to save such a rare and iconic car.

Lets see what sets this car apart from the rest.
 First of all its a very unique color ,#91 which is the light green.

Te body is very clean and straight with absolutely no rust or accidents of any kind.It has one repaint done in the 80's and it looks superb with the right amount of patina.
The chrome and stainless shines nice.All original windows all around.
 Rare roof rack option from factory and neat rubber steps on the rear bumper to access the roof rack.
Rare set of belgian made 7" Cibie lamps add character to this swedish machinery.

No rust anywhere.Clean rocker covers,solid floors and frame rails still wearing the original factory undercoating.

Spare and trunk area are exceptionally clean.Please note on some of the interior pictures what looks like surface rust its in fact glue used to glue down the carpet.

The mechanicals are rock solid and have plenty of upgrades.
The odometer shows 17k miles but im pretty sure its 117k since they roll over at 100k miles.
 It has a B20 motor with a 4 speed manual M40 gearbox.
The motor runs strong,no smoke or leak of any kind.
The transmission shifts very smoothly,can be operated with literally 2 fingers.
 Recently upgraded with new Mikuni side draft carbs and performance K&N air filters
Electronic ignition
New alternator upgrade
New battery

Tires are almost brand new with only a few hundred miles on them.
Kyb shocks with upgraded rear sway bar

 The interior is in great shape and very original.
The carpet has been changed and its in good condition.
 The dash cap was redone and looks amazing.
The seats and the door cards are factory original mint green in excellent shape.
 Driver seat has a seam split but its an easy fix.The vinyl is soft and not faded at all.
The headliner is also original in great shape.It does have 2 small rips by the cargo area.But its tight and it does not sag.
All the gauges work,including the speed and odometer.
 All the ligths work,heater and windshield wiper works as well.
 Still has the original am volvo radio,however an aftermarket kenwood unit was installed under the dash,it has ipod connectivity.
The cargo area is very clean.Inside the spare tire well we find the original spare,original floor jack and the original toolkit!They all look like they just left the factory.

 I would like to add a couple more things about the car.
 Id like to make a correction that the car is equipped with an M41 transmission which means that it has an electric over drive and it works.
I just found out this valuable information from the previous owner.
 Also a couple of upgrades/safety features that I havent mentioned before.
The car has been converted to dual-circuit brakes and a breakaway steering column as well.
Thank you for all the interest and compliments so far.

With this mechanical setup this car could be the unofficial 123GT Amazon Station wagon.

Just a thought.

Volvo celebrates 20 years since 850 wagons came to BTCC

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

This year Honda Yuasa Racing brought a station wagon back to the ranks of competitors in the British Touring Car Championship (its drivers currently sit in third and fifth place in the Championship). In 1994, however, Volvo was the first team to run an estate in the series that's one of the best for delivering close racing.
Rickard Rydell and Jan Lammers drove the duo of 850 Estates prepped by Tom Walkinshaw Racing, lining up at Thruxton and proving that the rumors of a wagon in the series weren't a joke. The team used that year for development, getting the 2.0-liter, 290-horsepower, naturally aspirated five-cylinder engine ready for the next year's proper assault. The team's best finish over the 21 races was a fifth place, and they took 14th overall.
Rules changes led Volvo to switch to the 850 sedan the following year, but all the right noises had been made with the wagon. Rydell drive on to a third-place overall finish in 1995, three years later he claimed the Championship title. You'll find details and reminiscing from Rydell in the press release below, as well as the full video with scenes from the glory days.

Geely targeting US market in 2016 with help from Volvo

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

Following reports that it'd team up with corporate sibling Volvo on a Chinese-market car comes a report from Bloomberg that Geely would reattempt its entry into the US market. The Chinese brand had a display at the 2006 North American International Auto Show, but has been absent from the US scene ever since.
The Geely branded cars will be jointly developed with Volvo, and bank on the Swedish manufacturers reputation for safety and reliability. Geely's CEO, Gui Shengyue, explained, "Our acquisition of Volvo enhanced our image and overseas consumers are seeing us as an international company." This represents a change in rhetoric for the brand, after Geely Chairman Li Shufu hamstrung the idea of a closer pairing, citing fears that an association would harm Volvo's reputation. The news of projects between Geely and Volvo first broke last week, although it's unclear if the cars that end up coming to the US will be the same as those being sold in China.
As we reported last week, Geely is already aiming to be the biggest brand in the Chinese domestic market. With this move to the US market, it's also attempting to overtake Chery as China's largest automotive exporter. According to the Bloomberg report, Geely has already moved 180,000 units overseas, which is extremely close to the 184,800 vehicles sold by Chery in 2012. By 2018, Geely anticipates that 60 percent of its sales will be occur outside of the PRC.
