Hello. I recently received this 740 wagon from a friend of mine as he was storing it in a garage that was recently sold. He is your typical volvo-nut so he found little need for another brick to add to his growing collection. Here is an imgur album taken today
It has just around 217K on it. Id say on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best)
Exterior 6
Interior 7
Mechanically 7
Frame 5
He wasn't sure if it would pass inspection but I thought "hey what the hell Ill give it a go". Well he was right. I've spent just around 500 in repairs but it needs around another 700 dollars to get in good driving condition or at least that's whats been quoted. I am not all that handy and not absolutely desperate for another car so I must find another home that can take better care of her.
Some very minor things just completed in last month:
New oil and filter change
New power steering hoses
New horn wired in
Completed in 2014 by my friend
Replaced right rear caliper rotor and pads
Re-installed and replaced OD relay
Replaced exhaust front pipe
Replaced ball joints
Replaced radial control arm cone bushings
Im sure there is much more to say but I wont write an essay here. If you are interested please feel free to contact me via text/call @ 5 one eight-3 five four-zero two zero 3 or send me a PM. I realize this is my first forum post but I lurk quite a bit. Id be more than happy to talk to you about the car.
Ill also link to the CL ad I posted if the attached images dont work for whatever reason
