86 Volvo 240 Wagon

Hi I just thought I'd share some pics of my 86 wagon.

Being a fan of the marque and model (I have a '92 wagon awaiting a V8 engine swap), I must say yours looks good. And where did you find one with such low mileage? But I'm a bit puzzled as I thought 240s had four rectangular headlights up through about 1988? Tony

1985 was last year for quad headlights.

Nice Brick!

Yeah, nice example. By the way, I recently rode from Philly to Queens in Joe Curto's 240 wagon. No, I didn't check to see if it ran SUs.

I'd bet after spending all day with those little sliding demons, the last thing Joe would want is a car with them... ;)

Does seem like amazingly low mileage.

I have had a pair of 240s in the mid 1990's, a 85 DL and a Classic.They were terrific cars and even then a great value.

Watched a guy autocross one of those in Geneva, FL two weeks ago. He had put a Ford V8 in it. What a wild show he put on!

You mean this guy? You know he works for the magazine

I've driven Greg's Volvo, and the mustang-sourced 302 feels right at home in it. If you have the means, I highly recommend it.
