Custom 1997 Volvo 850 T5 Wagon Hot Rod, Rat Rod, Mild Custom, Pure Coooooooool on 2040-cars
Goleta, California, United States
|
This is a Mild Custom 1997 Volvo, nicknamed the "VOLVOLO". New lowering suspension parts from IPDUSA. New Uniroyal Tiger paw tires, the wheels are factory Volvo wheels, but have been professionally powder coated by Permacolor in Carpinteria, Ca. The hood scoop on the car was welded and grafted from a 1964 Thunderbird, the scoop is non-functional, but gives the car an attitude. The side panels and the side of the t-bird hood scoop have been riveted, again for a Hot Rod, Mild Custom, Attitude theme. The car runs and drives, transmission shifts smoothly, the brakes work great, the moon roof works fine, the power seats, windows, and locks all work... this is a car you can buy, fly in to Santa Barbara, ca. and drive home. This is not my daily driver, you'll see in the photo, I have many vehicles, but this car gets it's legs stretched once a week. The title is a clear title, currently registered in my name with current tags and California vanity plates "VOLVO LO". The car is insured. The interior is leather and some of the usual cracks in the passenger seat, but the driver seat will need some attention. I could have put seat covers on them or a blanket, or not shown them in the photos, but I want you to see a true representation of the car that I am selling. The battery is new... in the last couple of months. No issues starting or driving the car. The true mileage of the vehicle is unknown, the speedometer works fine, but the odometer does not work. This vehicle is sold as-is with no guarantees or warranties, expressed or implied. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of the winning bid. Ask your questions, make your bids, and congratulations to the person who snaps this sweet ride up. Good Luck!!!

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake
Volvo to finally replace XC90 in 2014
Wed, 16 Jan 2013There's not a whole lot of life left in the current Volvo XC90, but it seems a replacement is on the way. According to What Car?, Volvo will launch its new flagship crossover sometime in 2014, riding on an all new platform that will eventually underpin several models in the company's range.
According to Volvo boss Hakan Samuelsson, this new architecture will eventually underpin the next-generation S60, V70, S80 and XC60, all of which will be getting mid-cycle enhancements over the next year. In speaking to What Car?, Samuelsson said that Volvo would not try to follow the paths set by BMW and Mercedes-Benz, instead focusing on "safety, elegant design and user-friendly functionality" for its next round of new cars.
The new XC90 will remain a seven-passenger vehicle and will be powered by a range of four-cylinder engines. Volvo will soon be dropping the five- and six-cylinder powertrains from its lineup.
Next Volvo XC90 design teased
Thu, 29 Aug 2013When Volvo took the wraps off its Concept Coupe yesterday, the Swedish automaker said that while "the all-new XC90 is an entirely different type of car, you will recognize the connection instantly when it is revealed next year." We raised our eyebrows at this upon first read, but after seeing these photos, posted on Feber.se, Volvo certainly wasn't joking.
During a press conference where the Concept Coupe debuted, teaser images of the next XC90 were shown, and the connection between it and the conceptual two-door are obvious. The long, T-shaped lighting elements in the slim headlamps are certainly the most noticeable tie between the two vehicles, but the angular lower fascia openings seen here can also be found quite prominently on the Concept Coupe.
Feber.se also has a few images showing the new taillamp and interior designs of the XC90, as well. And not surprisingly, those two facets of the new crossover's DNA are also surprisingly close to the elements found on the Concept Coupe. It's interesting to see how the concept's C-shaped taillamps have been massaged for the more upright design of the XC90's rump, and inside the cabin, it appears Volvo is serious about this vertically oriented infotainment display.
