You are looking at a classic TANK!
This 1984 Volvo 240GLT or (244GLT) turbo is a Sherman tank. It is the 2nd time I have owned it and its in great condition as I have in the last year put almost $2,000 into it. (please see the pic of one of the receipts). The car is rare in that it is a TURBO INTER-COOLER 4 speed trans with electronic overdrive (the button in the middle of the shiftier). Everything on the car works! The car is in the Volvo high mileage club! It has 329K and if you are a Volvo person this does not scare you especially with all the maintenance records I have to prove how well kept the car has been. I have maintenance records dating back to 1992! The car has new leather interior, virgo turbo wheels, and Super clean vinyl headliner. It has a nice aftermarket Keenwood CD player, Moon roof (does not leak). Tires are about 80% and all gauges in the car work including the clock! It has factory A/C and the heat will run you out of the car! The body is in good shape with NO rust anywhere! The paint is the paint from the factory so it is pretty good but not perfect. The trunk is the worst (see pics) It is "spider webbed" It is really the only part of the car that NEEDS painting. There are some scratches and dull spots in other places (again factory 1984 paint) but a nice Buffing would bring it back to life! The car is awesome! FYI-It will MOVE ON too! There are not many of these out there especially as nice as this one! PLEASE feel free to call me with any questions you may have at 828-467-3369. *This car is for sell locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING! *If you bid PLEASE be prepared to buy! |

Tina Fey sits down with Seinfeld for new CiCGC
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Recently Jerry Seinfeld went out for a videotaped cup of coffee with Jay Leno in a vintage Gmund Porsche. Switching coasts and cars, this time New York's own son returns to his city for a jaunt in a 1967 Volvo 1800S with fellow New Yorker Tina Fey for the latest episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
The trip takes them uptown to Cuban coffee shop Floridita in Harlem, then back downtown to a pastry shop. On the way, Jerry calls out a photo shoot for using a fake Porsche, and Fey admits she doesn't have a driver's license. Driving cars, she says, "is like Twitter to me." Which she also doesn't do - she lasted seven tweets in 2009.
You can check out the episode below as they go in search of coffee, the rare guanabana/soursop juice, Jerry's even more elusive product placement and the last Cronut in NYC.
Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Volvo may be better known for turbo fives and inline fours, but in 2005 it launched the XC90 with a new eight-cylinder engine built for it by Yamaha. Fast forward to this past June when Volvo announced its intention to enter Australia's V8 Supercars series, where it would compete with the likes of Ford, Holden, Nissan and Mercedes-AMG. This is the engine with which it intends to do so.
Revealed this weekend at the Sydney 500, this competition-spec powerplant is based on the same B8444S that powered the XC90 and S80 (not to mention the Noble M600), but tuned for racing duty to be shoehorned into the new S60 touring car. The 60-degree aluminum block has been bored out from 4.4 liters to 5.0, its compression ratio boosted to 10:1, modified to run on E85 bio-ethanol and its redline increased to 7500 rpm. Volvo also promises a unique engine note from its new racers.
While Volvo and its racing partner Polestar haven't released official output numbers, regulations call for outputs between 620 and 650 horsepower - in any event, a whole lot more than the 311 hp it produces in stock form. (Noble managed to squeeze that much out of the same block, but that required twin turbochargers while this unit remains naturally aspirated.) Scope out the details in the press release below and the photos from the reveal in the gallery above.
Hot rod tractor stars in Swedish version of Farmkhana
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Nordic countries are known for their beautiful fjords, blonde-haired populace and bitter cold for a good portion of the year. The hours spent indoors during the dark, cold season apparently gives a lot of time for some crazy brainstorming. Tire store chain Vianor is highlighting the Traktor Terror in a new video. If Ken Block is the master of Gymkhana, then these guys know all about Farmkhana in their custom, turbocharged tractor.
According to the YouTube description from Vianor, the tractor is a 1956 Volvo BM Terrier with an added roll cage, adjustable front suspension and extended frame. The engine is thoroughly Swedish, and it's based on a Volvo 940 Turbo with a Volvo 240 head and Volvo 740 intercooler. However, it uses a Saab turbo Prospark ignition and fuel system. All told, the setup is claimed to make 225 horsepower and is capable of a top speed of 60 miles per hour.
That's not crazy power, but this tractor can certainly put it down. The farm machine has no problem smoking those big rear wheels and drifts easily.... although, it may be a tiny little bit unstable (hence the roll cage). If nothing else, this looks like the world's most fun way to be a farmer, that's for sure.
