Owner says the odo just stopped but the car presents as honest miles. Way clean for an IL car, my guess is Garage Queen. And four keys !

'76 245 4 speed O/D, 100k but TMU. Flipper.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1976-volvo-245-dl/
Bought one in this color many years ago and gave it to my brother as a family car. Nothing but trouble, I hated the car, and it hated me back.
Watched it get crushed.

My first Volvo was ORANGE 1975 245 with 4 speed manual (no overdrive). It was great. Purchased about 1988 with 120K miles and drove everywhere until about 2002 at 240K. It never gave much trouble.foggydogg wrote: ↑31 May 2023, 13:20 '76 245 4 speed O/D, 100k but TMU. Flipper.
