This car was my grandmother's, had been garaged from the mid 1980's until she recently passed away and I got it. It is clean, clean, clean. I had a mechanic drain the fuel tank, install a new fuel pump, battery and fluids, and a new water pump, it started up but ran real rough then died again. He thinks the injectors will need to be replaced but I am out of money. Other than the exposed metal at the dent as shown, there is no rust! Rocker panels are perfect! Still has the original cocoa floor mats. Had the original sheepskin seat covers but they had fallen apart with age so I removed them. It's easier to list the few things that are wrong than all that is right. The left arm rest has a slight tear in it, the right arm rest feels rough, there is a coffee spill in the carpet at the center console, the rims and caps have rust, and there are two antennas for some reason. She hit a parking pole on the left front, I spoke to a body shop and he said it was going to be easy to correct and keep the original fender. There is a dime sized dent on the right door as seen in the pictures. A bit of TLC and this will look like it just rolled off the showroom floor! No hunting for obscure interior or exterior trim work to complete the project!

I have 50 high resolution photos I can forward on request. Too many and too large for Ebay's servers I guess.

Vehicle is being sold as is.

AB Volvo to build trucks using steel forged without fossil fuel

Thu, Apr 8 2021

STOCKHOLM — Swedish truck maker ABÂ VolvoÂ and steel maker SSAB have signed an agreement to produce the world's first vehicles made of fossil-free steel, the companies said on Thursday. VolvoÂ plans to start production this year of prototype vehicles and components from steel made by SSAB using hydrogen produced from renewable energy. Small-scale serial production will start in 2022. "This is an important step on the road to completely climate-neutral transport,"Â VolvoÂ CEO Martin Lundstedt said. The vehicles and machines will be emissions-free in operation,Â VolvoÂ said, without specifying how they would run, while adding the company is reviewing all the materials used in their construction to eliminate anything based on fossil fuels. It will be sourcing steel from green steel venture HYBRIT Â— which is owned by SSAB, Swedish state-owned utility Vattenfall and Swedish miner LKAB. Last August, it began test operations in Lulea, Sweden, to replace coking coal, traditionally needed for ore-based steel making, with fossil-free electricity and hydrogen, which in turn is produced using only renewable power. [L8N2FX3LV] China's Geely Holding, which has a stake in ABÂ Volvo, ownsÂ VolvoÂ Cars, which it has said will be fully electric by 2030.

Volvo V40 Cross Country gets the all-wheel drive it deserves

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

Want a rugged Volvo wagon? Gothenburg has two kinds to offer: there's the XC crossovers on the one hand and ruggedized wagons on the other. As we reported last month from the unveiling of the new XC90 in Sweden, Volvo plans on offering more Cross Country wagons in the future. But in the meantime, it has upgraded the existing V40 Cross Country with some key enhancements - not the least of which is the long-awaited addition of all-wheel drive.
Powertrain upgrades for Volvo's smallest soft-roader include the new T5 engine (a 1.7-liter turbo four producing 245 horsepower), an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The new powertrain is not only more capable, but also more environmentally friendly than the old T5 it replaces.
The enhanced V40 Cross Country launches in Europe mid-fall before being rolled out in other markets in the following months, but unfortunately the United States is not among them as the V40 is not offered Stateside in any configuration, which is a shame.
