Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)

Post by BlackBart »

Here's a Craigslist item I found in a 10 year old email. I copied the text:

"1969 Volvo 142S Coupe looking for a good home. Asking $4000. Comes with complete repair history, original owners manual and Volvo 140 series Owners Workshop manual. Mileage: 227,530. Manual transmission. B20 engine, dual carburetor. Body in good shape. Windows all work, windshield has no cracks. Work done in 2013: New shocks & bushings front & rear New fuel pump New clutch New tires Ignition points, rotor, distributor cap, spark plug wires replaced. Motor mounts replaced in 2012, new muffler in 2009, new brakes, calipers and hoses in 2005. Engine was rebuilt in 1995. The issues: the car runs rough until warmed up, then runs well. carburetors will need attention. Couple of small rust spots and minor damage. Dash is cracked. Gas gauge works but is inaccurate. Call Robin..."

Very rare Volvo

2002 Volvo V70 Turbo 5 Wagon - Manual Transmission - $1,750 (Cincinnati Anderson Township)
2002 Volvo V70 T5 Wagon - please note this is a manual transmission not an automatic
Black with Black leather interior
Newer tires and premium alloy wheels
Premium Audio system with subwoofer
Heated front seats
Moonroof
"Loaded" as they say.
173.248 Miles
Extensive service records

Runs but will need work on throttle body and exhaust. Which is the reason for the low price on a very hard to find, sought after car. Manual transmission turbo wagons are very hard to find.

Serious inquiries only please.
