 I have a 1967 Volvo 122 S Amzon for sale.One of the coolest cars volvo ever made in my opinion.
These cars rarely come up for sale and specially in this condition.
 This volvo is a dry california car that spent most of its life in the garage.Owned and cared for by a true volvo enthusiast.
This Volvo was originally an automatic.
This volvo was literally saved from the crusher.It ended up at the junkyard because of the bad automatic transmission.
But this was a great opportunity to swap a 4 speed manual transmission and to save such a rare and iconic car.

Lets see what sets this car apart from the rest.
 First of all its a very unique color ,#91 which is the light green.

Te body is very clean and straight with absolutely no rust or accidents of any kind.It has one repaint done in the 80's and it looks superb with the right amount of patina.
The chrome and stainless shines nice.All original windows all around.
 Rare roof rack option from factory and neat rubber steps on the rear bumper to access the roof rack.
Rare set of belgian made 7" Cibie lamps add character to this swedish machinery.

Cool talbot style fender mounted mirrors
New sylvania Halogen headlights
No rust anywhere.Clean rocker covers,solid floors and frame rails still wearing the original factory undercoating.
 Floorboards inside the car still wear the original paint.
Spare and trunk area are exceptionally clean.Please note on some of the interior pictures what looks like surface rust its in fact glue used to glue down the carpet.

The mechanicals are rock solid and have plenty of upgrades.
The odometer shows 17k miles but im pretty sure its 117k since they roll over at 100k miles.
 It has a B20 motor with a 4 speed manual M40 gearbox.
The motor runs strong,no smoke or leak of any kind.
The transmission shifts very smoothly,can be operated with literally 2 fingers.
 Recently upgraded with new Mikuni side draft carbs and performance K&N air filters
Electronic ignition
New alternator upgrade
New battery
New exhaust piping,silencer and muffler.

All the lights work.
 Original wheels with hubcaps.
Tires are almost brand new with only a few hundred miles on them.
Kyb shocks with upgraded rear sway bar

 The interior is in great shape and very original.
The carpet has been changed and its in good condition.
 The dash cap was redone and looks amazing.
The seats and the door cards are factory original mint green in excellent shape.
 Driver seat has a seam split but its an easy fix.The vinyl is soft and not faded at all.
The headliner is also original in great shape.It does have 2 small rips by the cargo area.But its tight and it does not sag.
All the gauges work,including the speed and odometer.
 All the ligths work,heater and windshield wiper works as well.
 Still has the original am volvo radio,however an aftermarket kenwood unit was installed under the dash,it has ipod connectivity.
The cargo area is very clean.Inside the spare tire well we find the original spare,original floor jack and the original toolkit!They all look like they just left the factory.
 Rear hatch shock was changed and stays up.

On Jan-05-14 at 10:14:08 PST, seller added the following information:

 I would like to add a couple more things about the car.
 Id like to make a correction that the car is equipped with an M41 transmission which means that it has an electric over drive and it works.
I just found out this valuable information from the previous owner.
 Also a couple of upgrades/safety features that I havent mentioned before.
The car has been converted to dual-circuit brakes and a breakaway steering column as well.
Thank you for all the interest and compliments so far.

With this mechanical setup this car could be the unofficial 123GT Amazon Station wagon.

Just a thought.

Volvo Concept XC Coupe is ready to hit the slopes

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

There's something inescapably right about a Swedish car with a set of skis on its roof. It doesn't matter if it's a Jurassic-era Volvo Amazon, a Saab 900 Turbo, or even a Koenigsegg Agera R. Surely it's some sort of Scandinavian birthright... right along with immaculate complexion. The latest to carry on that tradition in fine form? The Volvo Concept XC Coupe, just released at this week's Detroit Auto Show.
The two-door, four-seat XC Coupe rolled onto stage here at Cobo pre-outfitted with a matching ski box, looking sharp on its 21-inch wheels. According to Volvo, the box isn't an afterthought - in fact, the XC Coupe's design itself was "inspired by modern sports equipment."
As for the rest of the concept's genetic makeup, at this point, we don't have much to go on. Volvo has admitted that the XC Coupe rides atop its new boron-steel-intensive Scalable Product architecture, but it has declined to outline any sort of powertrain details. We're not sure if this showcar has any production future, but we do expect for its design language to inform the next-generation XC90 crossover.

Volvo fires up S60 and V60 Polestar production

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

We were pretty smitten with the Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar models during our First Drive in Sweden a few months ago. We especially loved the way that its Öhlins adjustable dampers offered a perfect balance between suppleness and sporty handling. Now, the rest of the world will finally be getting the chance to take the Polestar models for a spin because Volvo is shipping out the first units of the limited-edition vehicles.
Their completion marks the first time ever that Polestar-tuned models have come off the line at Volvo's Torslanda factory. However, production of the 350-horsepower hatchback and sedan is very limited. Volvo is building a total of just 750 of them for the world market, and the US is only getting 80 wagons and 40 sedans.
In addition to the cutting-edge dampers and more powerful engine, both Polestar models benefit from a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system routed through a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters and launch control. Six-piston Brembo calipers bring things to a halt, and the limited models get unique front and rear fascias and 20-inch wheels. These are two very hot Swedes, and if rumors are right, then there are even more tuned Volvos from Polestar on the way. Scroll down to read the full announcement.

Volvo S60 Polestar entering limited production in Australia [w/video]

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

The Volvo S60 Polestar Concept may be entering limited production in Australia and, depending how the Aussies take to this Swedish super sports sedan, could then be made available worldwide. The news comes from Austrlia's GoAuto, which claims to have received early info from its sources inside Volvo and its tuning/motorsport arm, Polestar.
Polestar released a short teaser video this week (watch it below) of what appears to be the S60 Polestar Concept clipping the snowy apex of an ice track's turn. The only information given with the teaser were the words "Limited Edition. Soon in Australia." Unveiled last June, the S60 Polestar concept has since made the rounds at auto shows, visited Jay Leno's Garage, played on the track with its future competition, and even secured a home for itself with a buyer who reportedly is paying Volvo some $300,000 to own it.
The S60 Polestar Concept is about the meanest machine one can imagine making out of Volvo's sports sedan. Packing 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque from its heavily modified T6 engine, then routing those revolutions through a six-speed manual transmission to all four wheels, the S60 Polestar is said to cover the sprint to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds. A lower and wider body, brakes by Brembo, suspension bits by Ohlins and a diet to delete some weight make this car a serious issue for M3 and C63 AMG owners everywhere. GoAuto's sources say the production version's performance will be dialed back a bit from the concept's, but we'll have to wait until Volvo and Polestar make this sedan's production official to find out by how much.
