You may not know when someone is getting rid of their garbage.
I had put this in storage last year to use as a parts car.
It is a '94 N/A Wagon. Right.
A steering Knuckle, axle, and hub later. I am happy with this potential parts car.

I kept my 98 V70 GLT for a parts car, I ended up getting a 94 850 turbo which has a decent amount of the same parts. It saved me SO much money so far, when I got the 850 it was running really rough, I started to swap parts over and was getting better and better every time a new part went on. I finally switched the fuel pumps and has been running great since then. I am also switching the rims out when I get new tires. It is definitely worth keeping an old car if you plan on getting something similar, or at least finding a cheap parts car.

My original point being, What I had thought to be nothing but a parts car is now a viable and sturdy running N/A wagon with a minimal investment for a hub and axle.kippster41493 wrote:I kept my 98 V70 GLT for a parts car, I ended up getting a 94 850 turbo which has a decent amount of the same parts.

$300. is what I had paid for the car.
The hood hinges will be changed out to close the gap.
