NO ENGINE OR TRANS. Price is mostly for the wheels/rubber

15*10.5" three piece Epsilon Southernways on Nitto rubber

Here is an almost completed (body wise) 4 door UTE conversion Volvo 245

Needs to be trailered. Some welding to be done to pretty up the conversion, but the cab is completely sealed and ready to go. Needs some bondo and paint. Comes with the Fast Tommy's flares, but do recommend getting some 3" steel flares off of ebay.

Has been sitting for about 2 years.

Have my first child on the way and will no longer have time for it. Used to be my daily driver for about 5 years.

Willing to sell the wheels separately for a little more if you're interested.

Sleeper 242 LS-1 swap, $7500, Los Angeles. WAY less than $50,000.

https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/c ... 41782.html

"...LS 1 swap automatic transmission runs and drives but does not shift..."

uhh, that's not really running and driving, then...

Neil.
Agree it’s beat, listing price at top is $2500 so they must’ve realized 5k isn’t going to happen. For 1-2k it’s worth fixing if drivetrain and top work, front fenders-headlight polish-new seat covers-new windshield-fix power steering-new wheels…could have a nice car for less than 5k.

""I am selling my 91 Volvo 940 Turbo, This car was made and imported from Sweden, with the famous Red block engine.
I bought it in 2003 from Herb Brown (the local Volvo dealer at the time), it was my daily driver and kept it maintained all the time. I did not drive it for more than 3 years,(thnks to Covid), I am retired and don't need it now, as I have other car.
I put more than $3K on it right before Covid.
It starts right away and it runs just fine, for its age.
New inspection till 4/24
Many new parts to list.
AC is not working, Heating is good.
It has a dent on the rear driver side, shown in the last pic.
Odometer stopped at 189997 Miles, Now it should have about 200K Miles.
Remember the car is 32 years old and some things are not working or effected by age.
Title in hand.
Car will be sold AS IS , $2500 Cash only.
I will take this down when it is sold.""
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

Shame about that huge ding on the LHR fender. Car is not valuable enough to have it repaired professionally.

At the other end of the scale here is another wishful thinker selling a 95 T-5R sedan:

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/cal ... 1656356440

$17,500 CDN!! (about $13200 US). Maybe he thinks it is a wagon...........?

And then there is this one:

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/cal ... 1656332596

This XC90 has been up for sale for months!! Never changed the price. Who want to roll the dice for about $9k US on an 04 T6??

Pretty clean, but C/L might be a bad place to be asking all the money.
