Buy it for gods sake, doesn't look half bad. I bet you could make more selling it in parts than what you would pay for it.

hard volvo owners don't need 300 cubic inches to make numbers like that.

if your having trouble coming up with $200 for the volvo...how will you pay for a swap? not trying to be a jerk but they are expensive when done right
 
Yes, as has been said, don't buy a 240T if your gonna swap the motor out man, buy a 244D or N/A 244 for that, but if your gonna work that motor, or stick in a later TUrbo motor, keep it.
 
well i went today to look for rust on it like under the back seat and in the trunk here are some more pics
