Vehicle Detail

1996 Volvo 850 GLT Wagon Black exterior with a dark charcoal gray interior The GLT on the 96 Volvo denotes the topmost level of accessories and the luxury mode. I'm been a collector and restorer of vintage most of my adult life ( over 35 years ) and know what to do to bring a car back to its original near new condition. Since this one was bought for Momma in our retirement ----- that's what I did. She liked this one so much that we upgraded to a 2001 Cross Country as we plan to do some traveling in snow country in the next couple of years. When purchasing a year and half ago I picked on a car folks had owned that had taken very good basic care of like changing the timing belt when it should be, regular oil changes, regular transmission service and someone who had driven daily so it was well maintained. The mileage is actual at 109,600. When I got the car I took it to my Volvo Tech at Christopher's in Republic Mo. 417-890-1306. Any and all parts were OEM Volvo and when done right costs some money to do all that I did. I wanted the car in tip top shape to run for the next 100,000 plus miles. Below is a partial list of what I did to put Momma's car in tip top shape. A detailed list of all repairs comes with the car and is available from Christopher's. Chris has been the primo Volvo tech in this area for over 20 years. You are more than welcome to come see and drive it before the auction is over however when purchased on eBay its yours and needs to be paid for and picked up. I have it up for sale at the price I want for it but reserve is a little less so bid accordingly to own it. Give me a call if you don't want to wait till the auction is over and I'll help you get it purchased. The title is clean and clear and in hand from the owner who traded it in and it will be delivered by me to the new buyer along with the bill of sale by overnight express mail once funds have cleared my bank. The truck is being sold without any warranty of any kind expressed or implied. I did the following to the Volvo after purchasing it. Replaced front bushings Replaced one left front suspension control arms Replaced all brakes including redoing all calipers Replaced all shocks Installed new tires balanced and four wheel alignment Replaced one wheel New A/C compressor New A/C control module New belts New hoses New rear wiper motor New wiper blades all around New exhaust pipe and muffler ( aftermarket) New Sumitomo radial tires---tires have 10,000 miles on them so are 80% tread wear left New window vent visors Re-greased and adjusted the sunroof New radio with radio code number on the back of the radio New floor mats Reconditioned the leather upholstery to bring back to like new In other words redid all things that can make a car like new or as close to new as you can get a used car. Momma wanted remote start so we installed the complete remote start system with two remotes and two keys. I've driven it enough to know what kind of mileage it gets and that's one reason I've had a tough time getting to the point of selling it. Strictly highway I can get an honest 32 MPG, In and out of town an honest 25 MPG. This is Volvo's bullet proof 5 cylinder engine and plenty of power as a Non Turbo ( avoiding any future Turbo repairs ) transmission of course has been completely serviced, flushed and runs and shifts like new. The dash, appointments, seats all actually look closer to black than the gray shown in these photos. The camera on automatic setting tends to gray up dark things but this does show detail better than if I darkened them back to how dark they really are. 1996 Volvo 850 GLT Station Wagon VIN # YV1LW5546T2266002 5 cylinder Volvo engine ( non turbo ) Automatic transmission Premium radio with CD and Cassette player ( excellent speakers and great sound ) Power steering Power windows Power mirrors Power door locks Remote start installed with two keyless remotes and two keys Automatic climate control ( dual zone) heating and air with seperate fresh air vents Power driver's seat Traction control Rear defrost Tilt telescoping steering wheel Intermittent wipers front and rear with washers Rear fog light Electric sunroof Rear storage compartment Center armrest in the front with storage Front cup holders Rear child's seat on the pull down center console Side airbags Child safety locks Passenger and driver overhead courtesy lights This wagon has some paint touch up with a few dings in the body as would be expected but nothing that detracts and the paint is in overall good condition with being recently waxed and detailed We have over $8,000 invested in Momma's Volvo and am selling it for less as we just can't justify two Volvo wagons so it has to go. My price is much less than it would cost to own any other Volvo wagon in this condition. Please feel free to call Chris at the number I listed below and tell him you want a run down on Don Dollar's black Volvo wagon and its condition. Chris will be glad to give you all the information you need. Please feel free to come inspect and drive the car in person before the auction ends so just call and let me know when you will be here. Premium sound system with AM/FM radio, cassette player and CD player Center child seat pulled down. Can be put back up for three adults or pulled down as in photo below to use as an arm rest Here is the speedometer and odometer showing 117,406 miles Contact Information: Please ask any and all questions you have by email through eBay or email me direct at don.dollar@att.net Home number: 417-883-1924 Cell number: 417-773-4887 Terms: Deposit A $1000.00 non refundable deposit is due within 24 hours after the auction is over via PayPal Payment Balance Full payment is to be received in 7 days either by cashiers check or bank wire transfer. So call me for instructions and address to do so. All checks will need time to be verified and clear and that process can take longer than a week and up to 10 days so bank wire transfer will get paperwork and car released much quicker. Nothing goes anywhere until all payment details are completed as specified with no exceptions. I have the clean title in hand, and it and the car won't be released until terms are met and all funds clear as checks (even cashier's checks) can take up to 10 days. I'll do everything to make it a simple smooth transaction so bid with confidence. New owner needs to call me within 24 hours of auctions end to confirm method of payment and to arrange for pickup. International buyers need to pay in full with bank wire transfer in U.S. funds. Transport Quotes: I will assist with transportation, but the cost and responsibility of transporting is the buyers obligation. We have been very happy using Able Auto Transport and their number is listed below. I've sold many cars on eBay to a lot of nice people and know the ins and outs of transportation. The buyer is responsible for all costs of getting the car from here to there. Just use Able Auto transporters and I don't think you will have any problems. They can ship on open or closed transport. I will accommodate them on pick up to make it easier for you and them. For Transport: Able Auto Transport 800-340-0951
