960 wagon resurrection , help,needed, near Ohare Chicago

Post by liz1qazz »

Hello,
I have a 1993 Volvo Wagon... 140k What I think was great condition
Someone struck the car... airbags deployed, but it doesn't look to be too bad to me

Of course insurance wants to buy me out of it... I want to fix it because I love the car...

I can get everything you might need, I simply need someone to do the work with me...

Beth

I would have to see some pics, but it might be better to look around for another wagon. I recently "kissed" a deer on driver's side rear, and if you can find a qualified person, it would cost around $1,600.00 in midwest.

Craigslists and Ebay is where many listings are, but in another forum, they have a thread, for members only, where Craigslistings are posted.

If your work takes you to West Coast, there are still wagons around without major rust.

You might want to remove your phone number. I'm an internet geek, and ID'ed you in about 5 seconds.

Cheers,
