Isn't that called manscaping?
If he waxed under the hood, wouldn't all the oil leak spray just bounce off the hood and slick up the wheels?
Guy was from kelowna. Is on the okanagan Volvo Club Facebook group.
Today the CLEANEST 240 came into the shop. Guy bought it from Richmond area. Guy who owned it was obviously anal- under the hood was waxed. I should have snapped a picture. It's going to go sit in a garage in fort Mac now.

Was it a white sedan? Automatic?
No, it will slick up your lawn. That is manscaping.
Kinda interesting:

Begging for big Swedish flag stripes on the roof/hood, or IKEA logos on the side - '80s TURBO decal style
Engine swap from the original PRV, eighties headlights, no speedo cable, and worst of all, the Royal Automobile Club badge is not included.
$6500?

Oh, wow, I stand corrected. Naomi has a '78 244 with quad rounds. I presumed the 26x cars had rounds too. My bad.
I still stand by the thought that $6500 is a lot of cake for a motor swapped sedan. It does look nice, but it's priced like it's a restoration/survivor. By swapping to the better and more desirable redblock, it unfortunately loses whatever value it had as a collectible. It's just a nice old NA sedan with a bunch of quirks from whatever corners were cut on the swap, like not sorting the speedo/odometer/whatever.
It likely has that value to someone- just not me, I guess.

What year is your 265, and what lights does it have?
Solid sheetmetal and nice paint is worth quite a few bucks on a seventies 240 though. I'm getting on the wrong side of that lately.
