Volvo's have been in the family for a long time and I just found a 86 240 (not sure if its a dl or gl) auto in decent shape with 150k miles on it asking $950 but im thinkin 650
thats the kinda guy I am
what do you guys think? Im wondering if this would be a baseline for a good DD with good slight moded handling and a few speed goodies, but is there another, more sought after volvo that I should go for? nothing 70's or anything but I heard about a 2dr turbo like the 240's cant remember the model.... but i remember likeing it a lot. I kinda dont like the auto trans but thats not too bad...
the car has ok paint(could use a colorsand job) with dented up front 1/4's(replace at least one) and needs misc trim all the way around.
what do you guys think should I jump on it? or hold out for somthing better? Im waiting to sell my 86 civic(pretty good car and not the dime a doz one u see everywhere) since i need something reliable.
I also have the option of getting a 87 mistu. starion for the same price but needs more work so im thinking: speed and sports look/ride or comfort and more work to make a sleeper also possible being more reliable
