86 245 was $500
88 780 was $500
81 242 was $500
92 244 was $500

Give this one to me then, I'll give it a good home! Haha, it looks like it is in good shape over all though and will buff out real nice!

Red/Black 240 combo rocks!

dieselboy · 04-05-2012, 12:52 PM

Don't see very many red ones. Nice

professor245 · 04-05-2012, 02:10 PM

Fix the paint, lower it a bit and put those Multi-X from that 780 in behind

ryan242v · 04-06-2012, 10:42 AM

Dang your catching up to me in volvo inventory!

Though half my cars have at least a fist size rust hole.

slow240 · 04-06-2012, 10:58 AM

im amazed that this one is 100% rust free, the guy i bought it from thought i was mental, first thing i did when i got there was start shimmying up under it.....in the rain.
i was soaked, but its rust free and is the nicest one ive ever owned, its so.....quiet

the most mods this car will get is my spare IPD bars, shocks and struts (MAYBE lowering springs) virgos, and a super polished paint job

this is the backup DD, im not allowed to screw it up

I can think of a few things further from the truth.

"Virgos aren't ass ugly" springs to mind.

well, since the 780 was taken to valhalla, the wife has been DDing the 244.
so i had to make some upgrades.

First I had to polish the paint, it really needed it. the clearcoat is still trashed and peeling, but it looks sooooo much better.
recent roadtrip to pick up new rimpz for my whip

then today, i finally installed the IPD sport exhaust thats been sitting in my garage for a month

it needed it

in that last picture you can see the IPD sways i got at the junkyard for $30

repainted the grille the other day too, need a new rondell tho.

as you can see the clear on the trunk is reeeally funky, but i should be repainting this soon.

edit; oh yeah, and hydras.
