Vehicle Detail

This is an 1976 Volvo 242. We purchased last year from a gentleman in Frankfort, KY- the car was driven here from California. The body is in great condition some minor dents that were fixed, the car was originally burgandy and it's now painted black. Weber carb conversion done - runs well and much simpler to adjust and work on. Timing belt & full tune-up were done with new racing plug wires installed ,it also has an oil catch can. The transmission was swapped from an M45 (4 spd) to an M46( 5 spd) - a new clutch was installed. The gear shift lever piece that pulls the detent up to go into reverse broke( get the part would be a cheap fix- you can go into reverse by lifting the boot and pulling it up - due to the transmission swap the speedo is currently not working M45 mechanical and the M46 electrical. There is no CAT on the car it was used for Autocross. The lowering springs were cut and the car is lowered by 1.5". It has new struts and Bilstein shocks in the rear. The Fuel gauge does not work - we were going to install a fuel cell - and use a ford sending unit. Interior - was gutted & racing seats installed Momo Start 2007 FIA approved seat fro the driver - custom gauge pod in center and off to your right. Exterior- home painted black and wings - spoilers installed - If full price is given - the new owner will get the rare Speed wheels(Rally) seen in the picture + a set of RARE Bertone 780 rims as well. Note: In addition - there is another new manual steering rack that will come with it - the rack currently works fine- bought it as a spare. The Rear Diff has been welded which makes it a blast to drive. It would not take much to return it to a daily street driver - depending on your state - you will have to check on regulations. It was driven daily for awhile . Please review pic's THIS IS A RARE CAR WITH SOME RARE PARTS- WE HAVE PUT MORE MONEY INTO THAN WE ARE SELLING IT FOR - IT'S A GOOD LITTLE CAR WITH A GREAT DEAL OF POTENTIAL. NO INTERNATIONAL SALES - SO PLEASE DO NOT ASK. r
