Rare 1962 Blue Volvo P120 4-door. In Working Condition on 2040-cars
Santa Cruz, California, United States
|
This is a blue 1962 Volvo P120 that has been in storage for years. I have clear title...the vehicle history reads "salvaged" on the title. The Volvo was in working order when it went into storage. We jumped the battery and got it to start, though I don't know if the battery will hold a charge. I was about to drive it around for awhile to see if the battery would charge but then broke off the key in the ignition turning it over again! You can see in the photos the half key left, as well as the piece left in the ignition. I could get it out with pliers, but decided it was safest left in the ignition for the next owner to get out and copy. I know this happened once before to my dad. The small key you see on the ring locks the doors. I don't know much else about the condition except that we were able to get it started and it sounded OK. My dad, who was the old car fanatic, has now passed away so I can't ask him for information. You can see in the photos there is some bondo looking repair on the driver's side rear and some rust in the trunk. The odometer reads 33,556, but I imagine there are many more miles than that on the engine! I will happily answer any questions that I can, please ask them before bidding.
Also, in the coming weeks and months I will be selling quite a few old vehicles and loads of old car parts on ebay motors. I will happily assist the highest bidder with picking up the vehicle, but will not pay for any shipping myself or be responsible for anything that happens to the car once it leaves my property. The vehicle is located in Campbell, California. Thanks for looking! |

Volvo planning Golf rival, 'breathtaking' C60 coupe
Wed, 01 May 2013Despite just having refreshed nearly its entire portfolio, Volvo is still in the middle of a big product offensive. Vehicles like the C30 hatchback and C70 convertible have been given the axe, but a brand-new platform is being developed in addition to the Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA) that will underpin larger vehicles. According to Automobile, this means some very interesting newcomers may be on tap for the brand.
Volvo, in collaboration with Geely, is said to be working on a new platform about the size of a Volkswagen Golf that will likely spawn both a sedan and hatchback. Automobile reports that while the automaker's new scalable architecture is quite flexible, it cannot be stretched (or rather, shrunk) to accommodate a smaller vehicle.
Instead, SPA will be used for the company's larger offerings, starting with the V40 on the small end. (Though to our eyes, the current V40 looks plenty Golf-sized to us.) A new XC40 is apparently in the works, as is an S90 flagship, and new versions of the XC60, XC90 and S60 will all be coming based on this new flexible architecture.
Volvo confirms return of the wagon with V60 headed to US
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Turns out that promised new production Volvo model for the United States is indeed the V60 wagon, as we had previously predicted. And it's not terribly surprising, as Volvo has a long and storied history of wagon sales in the US, from the old, loveable 240 to the more recent high-performance V70R. And yet the automaker hasn't had a proper non-XC, non-crossover-style wagon in the US since it pulled the V70 away at the end of the 2010 model year.
"The new Volvo V60 is for people who want the handling of a dynamic sports sedan but need the versatility of a wagon," says Volvo, highlighting the reason many of us on the Autoblog team harbor such fondness for wagons in general.
Volvo is currently showing off the R-Design package for its entire model line, including the V60, at the New York Auto Show. We don't know for sure if the V60 will launch with the R-Design package or if it will come at a later date, and we also see no mention of a Polestar edition, though we're hopeful.
Last Volvo XC90 rolls off assembly line in Gothenburg
Mon, 14 Jul 2014It was back in 1998 when Volvo set about developing its first SUV. The brief was to build a seven-seater that wasn't "too large", and several design proposals were considered. Three and a half years later Volvo revealed the XC90 at the 2002 Detroit Auto Show and the rest, as they say, is history.
Volvo initially had an eye towards selling 50,000 units per year. It achieved that and then some, selling around 85,000 examples per year between 2004 and 2007. Now, after 12 years and 636,143 examples made - still over that initial target on average despite its lingering age that see it selling just 11,000 units these past few years - the last Volvo XC90 rolled off the assembly line in Gothenburg.
That final example is heading straight to the Volvo Museum adjacent to the factory. But it won't, strictly speaking, be the last XC90. It is the last of that model to be built in Sweden, but a new model is on its way. And the current model will continue to be built in Daqing, China, to be sold locally as the Volvo XC Classic. So if you want to get your hands on a seven-seat Volvo crossover, you'll have to move there. Otherwise you can wait until the end of January 2015 for the new model to begin production.
