We all know original Volvo parts are safer. Even used parts?

This is a pretty good deal for a 144, but that title could be a small pain to sort out. If it's a solid car with minimal/no rust though, I'd say it's worth it.

Is anyone using a site or app to search multiple craigslist cities?
Going to be searching state wide for a new Volvo in the coming months and wanted to get a slight jump start on it.
I know we used to use search tempest back in the day, is this still the best option?

SearchTempest seems to be the best way to do a nationwide CL search. I believe they're starting to incorporate Facebook Marketplace too (at least on AutoTempest) so that will be extremely useful. FB always has more of a selection.
