1980 Volvo 242, riginal owner, ot rodded by the original owner.

I know I have missed a bunch of extra modifications and equipment on this cool car.This Volvo really is an engineering marvel, t moves and handles incredibly well and is an experience to drive. Clean clear title in my name (original owner) and very low miles on the entire vehicle and drivetrain. For Sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction early.Odometer is roughly 124,000 although just about everything has been replaced, all joint, ie rods ends, tc, tc.Less than 10,000 miles on the motor.

On Nov-16-15 at 10:29:11 PST, eller added the following information:I just found the original bill of sale and pre delivery inspection, gain original owner.....also have the owners manual etc., will up load picture of those couple of things. Items I forgot to list.
Currently the Volvo has a 390 rear end and I am also including a 331 rear end if you want different performance.
Comp 350/350 cam, orger pistons, ouble whip timing chain, ustom large capacity brass radiator, eflon bushings on suspension, ustom dual exhaust with cat converters (cats currently off), can't stress enough how much custom work and engineering/thought went into the build, iterally everything mechanical has been rebuilt, ustom or new.....I would drive it across the country without hesitation.
Again, ou will not get rid of the grin on your face...it is a blast to drive and has raw torque and horsepower.
