Volvo Findings! (What have you found on FB/Craiglist/Kijiii/other)?

Don't know how the Four-C is. It mechanics special because of the Crank no start. The rear Brake Calipers all four are just hanging there with one of the Brake Hoses broken (see above). Just got it home this afternoon.

Pegs for cars, is that some east coast lingo? Here in the Midwest pegs are for motorcycles.

Took a peek under the car the Four-C are still there.

It is looking like the car is all original except for the missing head unit. The wires, GPS and Mic from the Aftermarket head unit that was in there. Then the wrap on the Charge air pipe.

Pegs, as in Pegasus, the factory wheels

Yeah, I'd definitely pull the wrap off the charge pipe. Other than that, it sounds solid!

Ah ... that slip by me .

I'll keep my eye out for a set but I do not want to B.O.A.T for a set.

Volvo part number 30647396.

I see them for sale on Facebook and whatnot every now and again for pretty cheap. There’s a set for sale locally right now for $400. My cousin got his for something like $250.

They look so pretty new out of the box!

Anybody need a project? Here is a mechanics special bet you could get them down to $500.
1960 Volvo Pv544 - $850

Wasn't there a song about that car? Something like Whose That Lady, Look But Don't Touch (It).

For $500 would a Carfax be part of your Due Diligence or was it obvious the car had OE paint?

I have been staying away from Carfax. Got ripped off last time I used it. Had one Carfax on my account. Ordered another one they charged me for six and deducted one for the report that was paid for long before that.

Found no evidence of a repaint. If there is any, it was done by somebody that is dam good at shooting black. The lack of badges on the trunk deck did catch my eye but it would not be the first Volvo I have come across without badges.

PS: Realized I still had some credits on Carfax. Run the report. Carfax report is clean as a whistle

Carfax is definitely helpful especially for a really clean car but it only gets oil changes every 10K miles . Glad yours show a clean bill of health.

I reckon it does make sense to get wheels that are more open, for displaying the R calipers
