Selling 1997 960, $6,500 in Los Angeles

Post by DancesOnH2O »

Letting my baby go. She was a creampuff when I bought er three years ago @80,000 miles and in even better shape now @115,000 miles. All details listed on Craigs, and about 100 pics and Carfax is on Dropbox

Still doing final sorting on a cruise control issue (will be resolved), otherwise just as perfect as you see and runs like new. Only "mods" are:
-De-badged the rear lid - badges are in glovebox and marked for position if you want back on the car
-Blacked out beltline - I like the "classic" volvo look (like the 940) better than monochrome, but didn't want to do permanently, so I removed door moulding and applied rubber paint via rattlecan. Afterward, I liked the look so much that I did same to contact strip on bumpers (which had the bonus of cleaning up a few nicks and scratches).

Janusz at Action Volvo said "best I have seen" about my car recently. I hope you agree!

"the very best car that Volvo ever made"

Nice car, but I would not agree with that statement.

Respect, and thanks for the comment Brad. You have me on performance. I see the "T" cars on your list. :)

960 is certainly not the fastest, or most fun, but comfort and build quality are amazing.

Yeah, that's alright, I was just giving you a tease.

It certainly is a fine car you have. I am kinda stuck in the 850's myself, I just love the car.
I once considered a Volvo wagon, but it is a bit too common man for me.
I have three kids and I have somehow avoided buying an SUV a minivan or a station wagon.
