1989 Project Car Volvo 740 Sedan Gray Cloth Restoration Parts Movie Runs Drives on 2040-cars
Bellflower, California, United States
|
Up for NO RESERVE auction is a complete running 1989 Volvo 740. This car was purchased many years ago at a lein sale auction and it has been parked at my Volvo shop for many years. We have used it for training and slow day work so there are some things such as the timing belt that have been replaced over the years. Overall though it has been parked outdoors and looks it; it would make an excellent donor car for a restoration project, a stunt car for a movie shoot, or the basis for a demolition derby machine or even something like that flamethrower car in the movie Bellflower. When you start with a cheap running car like this and let your imagination run wild, ANYTHING is possible! Vehicle comes with old lien sale paperwork so it can be registered, and/or disposed of legally and properly once you've executed your plans for this project car. Even smashed into a 2-ton cube, it's worth a few $$ in the scrap market. I can assist the buyer with obtaining a 1-day moving permit for pickup day. Because the registration is expired and there is no PNO, I don't know how much it would be to register it to drive around, maybe over $1000? You might fall in love with the car and decide to go through the hoops to register and keep it- after 30 years in the car business I've seen it happen time and again. Or you have a 740 from 86-92 that's tired or has been crashed and you need a complete donor car- hooray, here is exactly everything you need for your project! The gray cloth seats are remarkable for the age. Pre-bid inspection is welcome and encouraged before you bid. It's not registered to go driving on the street but we can drive it around the parking lot and even put it up on a hoist if you need, how often does THAT happen on a used car purchase? Once the gavel falls, it is yours as-is, where is; while it is complete it hasn't been driven very far for years so no guarantee it will drive a particular distance. That said, you should be able to drive it home locally okay; but the farther from Los Angeles County you're going, the more moxie and resourcefulness you might need along the way. Payment in full within 7 days. If you have to arrange transportation we can accomodate a pickup all day M-F during business hours, it should go smoothly. Once paid in full I can be a little flexible about time to arrange transport. No-reserve auction, bid to win this running 1989 Volvo 740! |

See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
Volvo S60, XC60 caught testing with freshened faces
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Neither the Volvo S60 nor the Volvo XC60 are that old, but the Swedish automaker is wasting no time ensuring that two of its most popular products don't get stagnant on the market, a fate that has befallen some of the other products it offers.
Even though these two models helped usher in a new styling direction for Volvo not too long ago, the modest facelifts on tap for both looks like they will bring both products closer to the styling of the handsome overseas V40 hatchback.
Aside from the pointier front end, the XC60 crossover is also getting a revised rear fascia that now includes integrated dual exhaust outlets. The shots of the S60 show us that the sedan's interior will be getting minor tweaks as well, including reshaped front seats and a new shift lever.
Your guide to vehicle subscription services
Mon, Oct 1 2018They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.
