1978 Turbo Regal Sport Coupe on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
1978 Turbo Regal Sport Coupe, 3.8 V6, automatic, 140,000 miles. Bearings and seals went out in turbo so I blocked the impeller from moving and capped the oil line and drove it another 20,000 miles. Engine got weak, probaly lost compression, didn't smoke. Heater core leaked so I by-passed it. A/C took a pound of R-12 twice a season. A-frame bushings need replacing. In '98 or '99, I pulled it into the garage and left it. Cute, but has dent in left rear quarter panel and rear bumper. No holes, only light rust in a couple places, bought it in Arizona in '83 and it's remained here, probably has always been here. This classic would make a great project car for restoration, hot rod, lowrider or just rebuilt for a daily driver. When the turbo went out, I purchased another Turbo, manifolds and pipes from a crashed regal but it needs rebuilding too, thought I would do it for practice so I would have a spare if I screwed up, it will also go with the car. Have never tried to start car since it was parked. Local pick up only. |

Volvo and GM team with Amazon for in-car deliveries
Tue, Apr 24 2018Volvo and GM are the first automakers to pair their vehicles with a new service from Amazon that lets owners have their packages delivered inside their cars, without them having to be there. The service will initially be rolled out in 37 U.S. cities at no extra charge to Amazon Prime members with a Volvo On Call or OnStar account, and it works with same-day, two-day and standard shipping. It's intended as an alternative for people who don't want to risk having their package stolen from their front porch or receive deliveries at their workplace, and both automakers say it's an example of how they're embracing innovation as a way to make their customers' lives easier. Volvo released a video (above) showing how the service works. Users download the Amazon Key App (or " Ama-zin," as the narrator pronounces it) and link their Amazon Prime account with their Volvo On Call account — or OnStar, in the case of GM-branded vehicles. Once they register their delivery location in a publicly accessible location, users can select the "In-Car" option at checkout. They get a notification when the delivery is en route and once it's completed and the car is relocked. Volvo has been offering in-car delivery in certain European countries since 2015 through its Volvo On Call platform, which enables services like the ability to send calendar-based navigation destinations directly to the vehicle, find nearby gas stations and help locate the vehicle when you forget where you parked it. Volvo says the platform is now available in roughly 50 countries and covers more than 90 percent of its global sales. The service is compatible with 2015 or newer Volvo, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC vehicles. Volvo says it's available to the majority of Volvo owners, while GM says more than 7 million vehicle owners can qualify. The service is expected to roll out to more cities later. You can check eligibility at amazon.com/keyincar. Related Video: Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Volvo Technology Infotainment Amazon connected car volvo on call e-commerce
