Gonna go look at it this saturday, haggled a bit but seem stuck on 3500€, it's a borderline case for me if the car is worth it or not, because it doesn't come with winter tires.

What's gonna determine it mostly though is rust. Since this is a 92 it has a galvanized body AFAIK and should not be ...

Any idea what the occassionally surging idle might be about? I am wondering if it's something electrical, if it was a vacuum issue it ought to be always high.

Looking at this 1992 745 with a B230F and M47. I admit a huge part of the appeal is the color.

If I could get good enough access there's the possibility of welding on it of course, welding nuts on the bolts tend to help ...

I got these 4 bastard bolts I need to undo so I can remove the cat and weld it. I have very bad access to some of the bolts and they look rusted as heck, they don't even feel like they are the same size anymore, the same wrench is too big for one but fits on another. I assume it's just rusted so ...

It's the owner of the company, car looks brand new. He has a bunch of vintage volvos on circulation it seems.
