Yeah, that's what the oxidizing paint looks like up close :-( ... prolly used cheap towels for car washing, but eh, whatever. Beggars can't be choosey.

Tranny rebuilt in '01, though the OD is acting up, so either the relay, solenoid, or wiring. Time for a tuneup, and minor trim issues (though the dashboard ain't one of them!), rear hatch panel is busted, but overall, not shabby at all for a 15 year old brick, considering the price.

Hopefully, I'll be able to arrange some time after work later today (or pay a fellow t-bricker to take care of it ... it's not knowledge, but time issues for me) to swap out the water pump and hoses. Then I can get it home.

Well, it is what it is. Kinda like the license plate I had on Kermit (http://www.powerpuff.net/volvo/gallery/kermit/index.html), y'know.

Aaron - less than $500.
Gian - that's just it ... the pics make it look better because you can't see all the scratches in the paint. That is, unless you come over and help make it look better ...

-- Kane ... who has tubs of both polishing and rubbing compounds.

Yep, another one of the evil year car. Second one of these for me too ...
