1984 Volvo 240 Turbo Wagon With Many Aftermarket Parts, For Parts on 2040-cars
Milton, Wisconsin, United States
The ideal person to buy this car is someone who is starting from scratch at modifying a Volvo 240, who has a decent body and engine and needs all the upgrades. And a little space to store this car while they take parts off. And a little time on their hands to do all that.
The car has been sitting for about seven years. It drove itself to where it's been parked since, overheating in the process. Best to not expect to start this engine and bring it back from the dead. The parts: IPD: Front and rear Sway Bars (25mm both; rear installed, front not installed) 245 Lowering springs (Front installed; rear not installed) Early adjustable camshaft gear (loosen bolts and infinitely adjustable) Upper 242GT strut tower-to-firewall braces Lower subframe stressbars (never installed) Steve Buscina strut tower brace in red/black powdercoat GTS brand headlight covers Custom 2.5" stainless turbo-back exhaust system with Catalytic convertor and muffler. Side exit ahead of passenger rear wheel (exhaust tip needs to be bent after curb strike, or whatever happened) "K" cam installed B23 intake manifold Full Volvo Intercooler setup from early 740 Turbo, including compressor bypass valve. Koni Special ("reds", adjustable) struts and rear shocks (I can't say enough good things about these shocks - loved 'em even better than Bilstein and Koni Sports I've had!) Original strut inserts to come with car (FWIW) Full complement of original Turbo gauges, plus the most excellent outside thermometer. Black leather front seat headrest pads Cruise control All the various chassis bits (tie rods, balljoints, brakes with PBR pads, etc) were in excellent condition when it was last out. Some of those things should still be good. Not sure about he hydraulics. There's a host of related parts that I could maybe dig out, depending on your interest. These include a full set of SuperPro poly bushings that were never installed, the original "T" turbo camshaft, an "A" cam, not sure what else. If you're really interested and are nice to me, I might consider letting go my R-sport steering wheel and adapter and the rare-as-heck dashtop gauge cluster (goes where the dashtop speaker usually is) for additional $$. I'm keeping the Turbo rims - car will come with set of random wheels to roll on. I might be able to assist with delivery of this vehicle - but it would be best to trailer it (I don't own a full trailer). Contact me before bidding if you're interested in anything other than picking it up yourself. |

First production Volvo S60 Polestar shown off
Thu, 18 Apr 2013With the Volvo S60 Polestar going on sale in Australia this June, Volvo has finally released images and specs for the production version of the performance sedan. While no official build number has been announced, one image of the car's steering wheel shows a serial number plaque that says "No. 000/100" indicating that production will likely be limited to just 100 units in Australia. The press release states that the Australia run of Polestar-tuned S60s is a "pilot project" and that other potential markets are "under investigation."
Although it looks very similar to the S60 Polestar Concept we first saw at the LA Auto Show last year, the production version of the car sports a few changes. Visually, the front and rear fascias have been slightly modified from the concept car, as have the matte-black wheels. Inside, we see a different steering wheel that adds the aforementioned build sequence plaque but loses the suede leather accents, and there is also a sportier looking shift lever with a chrome handle that features a Polestar logo.
As for performance figures, rather than the 508-horsepower of the S60 Polestar Concept, the production version will be limited to 350 hp and more than 368 pound-feet of torque, which is still an improvement of about 25 hp and at least 14 lb-ft over a 2013 S60 R-Design. Polestar also tuned the six-speed automatic transmission and Haldex all-wheel-drive system for optimal performance leading to a top speed of 155 miles per hour and a 0-62 mph time of 4.9 seconds. The production S60 Polestar will still get suspension, brake and aerodynamic upgrades.
