If its driveable with transfer tags, not a problem. I have so many SkyPesos I can fly most anywhere for free, and the beauty of these cars is a 1000 mile trip in a P80 seat is still heaven on the my FWG torso.
Ok this makes your question in my forsale thread make sense. To be drive-able without a full snow suit, you'd need a passenger side window. It also lacks a headlight and turnsignal. A headlight would need to be held in place by other than factory means, as the core support was destroyed on that side.

Update on the Volvos for kids program

We will ask the Student Government to collect a small number of applications each semester , and come up with a donor car each semester.

First one will be my Silver Kat, will miss her, but going to Good!

We will stick with 1996-2000 models to keep Ny Inspection safety only.
