Description of 1976 Volvo 240

**READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION**
This car is priced for the hood and the headlights, everything else is a bonus. It's not a daily driver, you shouldn't count on driving it home without a chase vehicle, you should only plan on towing it for the hood and lights!!! This car is also listed on Nashville CL and FB marketplace.
If you're looking for a rust free car, go back to search results. If you're going to ask me if it's a daily driver, go back to search results. If you are not going to read the description, go back to search results.
I strongly recommend you come see and drive this car before purchasing, and I'd be more than happy to hang out and talk Volvo and two strokes if you visit.

Good:
  • Runs and drives - Kjet mechanical injection with AW70 automatic and 3.91 DANA 30 rear end
  • Flathood and associated sheetmetal are in good shape, would be excellent to blast, paint and install on another car
  • Currently has a third pedal for all you out there itching to do a 6 speed LS, manual trans was removed
  • 89k original miles (sat most of its life)
  • Clean and clear full tennessee title in my name
  • Has a rear hatch from a later model car in good shape
  • All glass is intact
  • Tires are from the past decade and could be driven home on
  • Recent cooling system rebuild (pump, radiator, hoses, cap)
  • New alternator (charges fine)
  • External fuel pump installed to replace original
  • Interior is largely complete, no interior leaks I'm aware of
  • Frame seems solid (no significant structural rot)
  • Front end feels tight on the highway, and power steering works
  • Doesn't leak fluids
  • Master cylinder recently replaced, rotors in good shape and hydraulic system holds pressure, ebrake functions as it should
  • All lights work
Bad:
  • Doesn't idle great, drives at speed ok. Kick down isn't hooked up, and ratio is a little tall for the AW70, PRNDL is not installed, neutral safety is bypassed
  • Rear hatch hinges are broken
  • Floors are not perfect, doors have rot, windows have rot, LOOK AT THE PHOTOS - this car sat for a LONG time outside, and remember YOU'RE BUYING IT FOR THE HOOD AND LIGHTS.
  • One power steering boot is torn, replacement included
  • No splash pan
  • Heat and air do not work and have been HARD deleted by PO. Allegedly has a heater core leak, and someone cut all the AC lines. Evaporator is still in dash, condenser is gone, York 210 compressor still installed up front. Heater lines are bypassed in engine bay.
