Nicest looking tan interior I've seen in a while, might have been a garage queen.

This 240/350 Volvo might be fun. I wonder what it has for a radiator. Price does seem steep for not running and driving.

Too bad homemade hump. And yes - why not running and driving? oh...clutch cable needs fabrication.

Is that a roll bar / shoulder belt bar?
