The main problem is that it needs a new steering rack for sure, it has a lot of play and is leaking. There may be more that needs to be done with the front end, but the only thing I can say for sure is bad is the rack. It's driveable, but it takes some effort to keep the car straight due to the bad rack. I probably wouldn't recommend driving it home, but it could probably be done if you're crazy enough.
There seems to be a leak from the transmission bell housing gasket, which is quite annoying because I just replaced it. It also needs windshield wipers and could probably use tires soon (it was sitting on them for a while, but the previous owner seemed to have kept air in them at least). Still plenty of tread, but they are old. Crack across the center of the windshield.
The overdrive button is not plugged in currently, but I have the wire pigtail that can be soldered or crimped on. Easy fix. I do not know if the overdrive works, but I see no reason why it shouldn't. I don't know if the power antenna works, but the previous owner gave me a spare, so I assume it doesn't. I will include the spare.
No headliner currently as it was all ripped up. The clear coat is pretty badly peeled on the hood and roof, but the rest of the paint is okay.
I hate to let it go, but I can't justify spending more money on this car. I have another Volvo that needs my attention, and I'm already too far into this one. My loss is your gain!
It's a great project that just needs someone who can finish it up. She's far from perfect, but the engine is solid and the chassis is rust free, so it's a great starting point.
These cars are getting harder to find, especially the Turbo. Get one while they're cheap!

I traded it for the Miata, so the new owner will appreciate the free wash! I think he actually plans on painting it black, which hurts a little. I love a beige Volvo.
