Late wagon.

It’s red = cop magnet. Buy it and have it repainted white to blend in with everyone else in true TB fashion. Should not cost you more than $14.99 painted.

OP I'd only buy it if I was going to do a bodgy lift and scrape the rockers while going camping.

mblue240 · Nov 28, 2018

If i had 4k and wanted a wagon, damn right I'd buy it. The only way it could have been better from the factory would be if it had an m47.

Matt86 · Nov 28, 2018

Yes absolutely...but I'd put the stock springs back on it...but that's just me. 1993-awesome year especially if you like having working A/C

2manyturbos · Nov 28, 2018

No, I would advise against buying it... Now, where exactly is that car?

Looks like Arizona or possibly the inland empire.

sirbryanclark · Nov 28, 2018

Wow, so clean!

Hacksaw116 · Nov 28, 2018

I'd have to say yes. That looks pretty well maintained. No foam **** above the firewall, not sure if that was omitted past 1990 or if someone cleaned it and had it re painted. It's a beautiful car, and 4k would be a decent donation toward the effort it took to maintain that pristine level of cleanliness for you to enjoy.

Yes if I was inclined but I’d rather buy a 200 dollar car and spend 4 grand getting it to a stage zero

Norritt · Nov 29, 2018

So I did end up getting it. Got delivered today

It was in Albuquerque btw....good guesses though.

Only thing I have noticed is the overdrive light is staying on (even when I try to push the button) - so getting that checked out tomorrow. Seems to have a couple electrical gremlins (as noted by the owner) Drives great and so clean.

blyat · Nov 29, 2018

The ipd bypass kit ought to solve that overdrive situation

Old Iron · Nov 29, 2018

I support the "YESSSSSS". It has absolutely everything going for it! Color combo/1993/wagon and clean as ####.

EDIT: Congrats, here is some red 245 inspiration.

But!

S70T5fivespeed · Nov 29, 2018

Nice congrats

Norritt · Nov 30, 2018

Thanks!

Any recommendations on lowering / suspension / sway bars kits would be appreciated. I like it's current stance, but it is cut springs and would prefer something a bit better.

My local Volvo purist mechanic is happy to install whatever I bring them, but they won't recommend anything other than the stock set up.

I am doing my own research on the site, but it looks like a few of you have been through / done this to your own wagons.

Thanks again!
