Great buy at $160 Pete and it would be in my garage now.
This one is gonna take awhile. Was $600 when it started.

Oophta, that’s too dang much. I wouldn’t pay over $160. I noticed they are made by Borbet when I was cleaning them.

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)
The wording on the post makes me think the seller has no title. But it could be a good m56 for a swap and other parts since the car is said to be running.

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)
So you did picked them up? The ad still says "RIMS VOLVO XC90 pick up pending - $200 (St. Louis Park)"?- Pete - wrote: ↑Mon May 18, 2020 8:36 amMoVolvos wrote: ↑Mon May 18, 2020 5:49 am

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)
Could have been stuck somewhere and was picked up with the trailer. We were able to push and pulley a Jag onto a trailer bed like the one in the ad. The owner couldn't get it started after sitting for 5 years so his friend brought a trailer with his Ford pickup and took it home. The five of us was able to get that thing onto the bed of the trailer.abscate wrote: ↑Mon May 18, 2020 6:38 amNew rule.

Don’t accept this,
Would be nice if the V70 is still on the bed so it could be delivered to the next owner.

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)
I have loaded several cars that were not running onto trailers. Did not have a winch - used a manual come-a-long. When you go for these, you take an air tank and tools. The worst one had rusted brakes.

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)
I actually was out of town butchering hogs when I initially posted that. I emailed the seller right away after they posted them. Worked out ok I guess. 1st two buyers didn’t show, & I was next in line. I posted it hoping someone around here would get them. Someone around here got them
