SOLD - 2004 v70 Parting Out Before Having It Hauled Away

Post by packetfire »

Sorry kids, sold. A fellow bought the whole car, drove it to his barn or gararge, and is taking parts off it for his own v70.



I have a high-miles 2004 v70 that I can still drive, but the below-listed items are kaput, and therefore not good things to buy.

Everything else is great. Old, but great. Silver color, no dents, very few signs of wear. Car is parked in Bayonne, NJ at the house my wife grew up in. After selling off parts, the car will be scrapped, as I assume that no one wants to buy this car and address the issues that made me buy another Volvo:

Shipping will be actual cost, from zip code 07002 (Bayonne, NJ) I have very study double-wall cartons, so if your part is less than 15 x 12 x 8, it has a nice box ready. Bigger stuff, I dunno. We will figure something out.

The temp tags on the new car expire Aug 10th, so that's likely how long the v70 has to live.

Dead Stuff:
a) The Cat is clearly failing, as the O2 sensor is reporting it is failing. Cata-clean did nothing.
b) Steering rack leaks. The car marks it's territory like a dog.
c) Transmission is clearly on the way out, despite fluid changes with the Toyota fluid, it kicks a bit in hot stop-and-go traffic in Manhattan NYC.
d) Driver's seat has several seams that have given way, exposing the yellow padding.
e) Interior carpets are dirty, as this was my "urban pickup truck", and I AM the kind of friend who will help you move. ;)

Everything else is perfect. VIDA reports no errors at all, so all modules and electronic bits are functional.

1982 240DL: Drove it 32 years and 1.5 million miles (sold, even still had mint leather!)
2001 v70 2.4T: The most expensive $1500 car I ever bought ("Volvo Turbo" - what an oxymoron!) (sold)
2004 v70: Far less fatally-flawed v70 - It served well (sold)
2010 v50: Smaller, slightly sportier wagon. Its got a spoiler, so I upgraded with sway bars!

Hello packetfire,

I am looking for a hood, could you confirm color code? The color I am looking for is moondust code 443, which is really kind of an off silver. There are also some trim pieces we could use, would the interior be tan by any chance?

Thanks, Dirk

Is the car still around and if so do you have the right lower brake light assembly?

I am sorry, but the entire car was picked up by a lucky guy who is taking all my good parts off it to use on his own v70.

I should have marked it sold, but it was the weekend.
