'71 1800E in Western MA

A bit heavy ask for one needing an interior, especially a New England native. No pics under doesn't help.

1978 Volvo Bertone 134,000 miles.

Work recently completed -
Fuel injectors, pump, relay, pressure regulator, harness, and lines replaced. Nearly new exhaust just welded and tightened up.

The engine is a 4 cylinder Red Block Volvo engine. Wanted everyone to know that it is not the original motor. The original Peugeot engine was problematic so many people switched them out.

Runs well.

This is a nice looking car and is very rare. Especially with the 4-speed overdrive.

No trades. No trades. No trades.

Two for the price of one: 99 and 00 V70. The red 99 needs work, and the seller says the blue 00 is a good parts car.
For 1500.
https://maine.craigslist.org/cto/d/linc ... 69379.html

This one comes with 2 engines and lots and lots of stuff, for 1200. "The car does not run at the moment, however, it was drivable last year."
I have to say, the body looks pretty darn good for a Maine car and the interior, save a couple small flaws in the leather, looks darn good.
https://maine.craigslist.org/cto/d/warr ... 14140.html

Then there's this 98 S70 for $600 but with a bad cylinder. Might be worth the trouble.
https://maine.craigslist.org/cto/d/bidd ... 64302.html

This seller (that's a dealer's plate on the rear) looks to have done a lot of top-down cruising in this one. But I like the color a lot.

1996 850 Turbo Gold Edition, 7 years' reliable service and >220k mi, sadly now gone
2009 S60 2.5T, sent away after taking me down Via Dolorosa. Happy to be rid of it.

Bullet proof b230 with aw71 transmission automatic
And turbo from the factory
Custom ordered car base model with turbo added by the factory

Gold over tan cloth
sedan lots of trunk room plastic floor mats to keep it clean everything works AC CD player radio power windows power door locks

I think the odometer reads 220 something thousand miles which is really nothing for a Volvo b230
And of course rear wheel drive
Oh if you have any questions please text
This was a custom ordered car as a base model
No turbo trim or markings
Crack on passenger side of windshield passes inspection no problem
1997 855 GLT (Light Pressure Turbo) still going strong. Previous: 1986 240 GL rusted out in '06, 1985 Saab 900T rusted out in '95, 1975 Saab 99 rusted out in '95, 1973 Saab 99 rusted out in '94
