1966 Volvo 122.  Car is in great condition for 48 years old.  Not a show car, but a good clean driver/project.  Not the type of vehicle for somebody who isn't  mechanically inclined.   Amazingly no rust.  B18 rebuilt with FI B20 head with hardened valve seats to burn unleaded.  Rare IPD Volvo aluminum valve cover.  Electronic ignition.  Alternator conversion.  Smooth four speed with good working overdrive.  IPD springs, sway bars, and poly bushings.  Brakes gone through on all four corners.  Door panels and dash recovered.  Needs headliner installed (I have the headliner).  Front seats are in OK condition, but are not original (green upholstery).  Back seat in good condition.  Needs a new carpet kit.  Has center console with Volvo clock and the switch for the OD (not hooked up yet).  Starts easily (although a little cold blooded) and runs like a swiss watch.  Uses no fluids.  Drives strait and true- will run down the highway at 75 all day.  Has rare wide steel wheels.  I have some misc. extra parts- set of good SU carbs with manifold, muffler (has glass pack on it now), tail light seals, etc…  Hate to sell, but just don't drive it enough keep it.  Ask any questions that I didn't cover here before bidding.  Will NOT ship overseas.  Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.  $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end.  I can store the car for a reasonable amount of time- but would like it gone within  one month.

Apple CarPlay drawing early safety concerns [w/video]

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

Apple's CarPlay infotainment system hasn't made it into a single vehicle yet, and it's already drawing criticism for distracting drivers among safety advocates. The new tech unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show pairs users' iPhones with the car's dashboard display to make calls, dictate messages and listen to music. Some automakers, like Volvo, also let users interact with the HVAC system from the screen.
"The idea that people want to be on their phones, and therefore let's give them a way to do that -- that's not putting safety first, that's putting convenience and the desire to be in touch first," said Bruce Hamilton, manager of research and communications at the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, to CNN Money.
Distracted driving is a huge concern on modern roads with more vehicles allowing drivers to use their smartphones through Bluetooth and infotainment systems. A Texas A&M study found that drivers' reaction time doubled while dictating text messages, according to CNN Money. The new tech is certainly not making drivers pay more attention.

Scratch that new crossover, Volvo teases ad campaign for XC60

Sun, 26 May 2013

If we were to paraphrase the opening lines of Kenneth Graeme's Wind in the Willows for our own purposes, we'd write, "Have you heard about Volvo? They never planned a new crossover at all. It was all a horrid low trick of theirs...." To be fair, though, we can't blame them for our own presumption. When the Swedish car company created a site called LeaveTheWorldBehind.com and teased a couple of videos for some kind of collaboration with Swedish House Mafia, we thought the crossover in one of the teasers pointed to a new vehicle on the way.
Turns out that's not the case. It really is 'just' a collaboration with the band on a music video for Swedish artist Lune's cover of their 2009 song, Leave the World Behind.
But there are Volvos in it, and you can watch it below and hear original song alongside. We've also included the press release with more details on why it all came together, and a behind-the-scenes video on the collabo. To paraphrase Forrest Gump, "That's all we have to say about that."

Volvo V70 and XC70 and Ocean Race special editions wash ashore ahead of Geneva

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

Volvo will unveil the third in its series of new concepts to the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it will also bring a flotilla of special editions to the Swiss show. The V70 and XC70 are getting limited-edition models called simply Edition, and the V40, V40 Cross Country, V60 and XC60 will have Volvo Ocean Race Editions.
The Edition models outfit the cars with an extra sprinkling of style. The V70 Edition gets high-gloss black trim on the grille, mirror caps, side window frames and tailgate and rides on silver, 17-inch wheels with high-gloss black 17-inch and 18-inch wheels as options. The XC70 Edition adds some gloss black exterior upgrades too, plus high-gloss black, 18-inch diamond-cut wheels. Both models are swathed in black leather upholstery with cream stitching.
The Volvo Ocean Race Editions celebrate the brand's sponsorship of a 38,739-nautical-mile yacht race that will circumnavigate the world from 2014 to 2015. All of them sport the race logo on the tread plates, front fenders, infotainment display on start-up and special seven-spoke wheels. Inside, there is the choice of black or blonde leather seats with orange stitching. The 60-series cars also sport a map of the race route on the rear load cover.
