94K, lots of new service parts recently, drives soooo nice...
got to replace the rad (car was supplied with a new one)
replace the headlights (usual problems) clears on and
lower her and just drive! :nod:

Not bad for £400.

It is a nice color with one very tragic flaw at least here: it is exactly the same color as pavement basically. They get hit ALL the time. More than any other color volvo I'd say.

I knew you'd come round. 240s are better! Even 4-doors. Anyway, be careful and make sure your tails and side markers work and maybe even consider improving the lighting so it doesn't get smacked.

Nice, now put "the engine" in it.

It is 91 and older...dash has a speaker grille...unless britain never got the speakerless dash later 92-93. GLTs have black trim and skinny bumpers 81-93 there. Pretty cool.

It is 89+ since it has the matte or flat black instrument cluster.

whats wrong with the steering wheel?

larger-diameter later style non-airbag wheel. 89 was the only year the US got that steering wheel.

It's on the wrong side of the car.

Nice find. That's so damn cheap for that mileage!

Very Nice Griz, at this rate you'll have more Volvo's than Foggy.....
















Actually that's impossible to achieve

Nice find Griz! Tell me about the engine? Is that the version of a B230 that has the VX cam stock? I wish they had continued to sell the GLT over here. They look really good.

Jeh

Needs clear and red rears, and lowerage!

No, needs to stay stock, allowing you to work on the KW.

Looks good Griz! I guess it's a K-Jet car? Fingers crossed you don't lose too much in terms of fuel economy over the 245.

Tail lights would be quick enough, but lowerage is definitely eating into KW time. :rofl:

cheers
