Description of 1986 Volvo 740

New paint job in stock blue. Runs great, needs nothing, ready to ride!
New front right fender that received light damage from minor traffic stop sign accident, (negligible speed involved.)
Rust proofed under and from within on inside floor when it was stripped down.
Original VW d24t engine and ZF 4HP-22 transmission.

Great frame, no rot.
Needs nothing and can be a daily driver. It's been repaired, updated and restored, it runs great and is ready for many more years. It has been taken apart and rebuilt with great attention to detail. All wiring and lighting has been combed over during the rebuild, and repaired where needed.
It's a rare version of this import, in almost impossible to find restored, repaired and functional condition.A limited number of these were sent "across the pond" in the mid 80's, few are left, far fewer, if any, are in this condition available for sale.

It comes with two like new studded snows, (used one winter for my daughter,) on matching rims, (I have 8 original rims total.) The leather seats have some tearing, and are covered.

It has the original Volvo tow hitch and ball, leather all around, moonroof, new old stock radio with cassette, antennae, all heat, a/c work great.

Some cracks to the dashboard and small tears and wear to driver's seat leather would be the only thing needed over time. I have an exhaustive list of all work done that will convey with sale, (done by a retired Master Volvo mechanic) who runs a blog and sells parts for these specific vehicles with an international audience, some hand machined. Partial list: alternator, battery, windshield, headliner, glow plugs, front end: bushings, tie rods, ball joints, washer fluid system and wipers, steering fluid bracket, (a bugaboo for these: replaced with aluminum molded bracket,) multiple seals and gaskets for the engine replaced as needed, electrical harness, headliner reupholstered, exhaust repaired, rear bumper mounts given gaskets to prevent rust. This car has been given a high level of attention to detail and functionality by an avid fan of this model and fastidious mechanic. The buyer will have a detailed spreadsheet of all work done.
The timing belt was done at 114K, (by my mechanic.)The owner before me of this vehicle was Master Mechanic R. Converse of the Converse Conversion, (look up Paul Newman and the work done by Converse.)
Clean title, brand new state inspection, (Maine.)

Classic, turn key diesel Volvo that will increase in value with proper care.
Excellent veggie oil or bio-fuel conversion vehicle.
