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.

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.

So you did picked them up? The ad still says "RIMS VOLVO XC90 pick up pending - $200 (St. Louis Park)"?

New rule. Flippers have to at least take it off the trailer.

Don’t accept this,
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.

Would be nice if the V70 is still on the bed so it could be delivered to the next owner.

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.

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 :lol:
