Vehicle Detail

This is a 1999 Volvo V70-AWD. (Roof Racks NOT included, I repeat, NOT INCLUDED) The car is drivable but it has a couple issues that need to be addressed: 1: I was told one of the tie rods needs to be replaced, that is when I stopped driving it myself. It drives fine and you can get it somewhere relatively close, but I would be careful if you are going to drive it across state or something 2: The AC is ice cold but it is no longer blowing. I know the AC is in perfect working order because when you drive it on the highway the air pressure forces air through the system and it comes out Ice Cold, but the blower forcing the air appears to be malfunctioning. This could the blower motor or it could be the dash unit that controls the motor, I have no way to know. It came on intermittently before it stopped so I believe it is probably the dash unit, the brains of the AC that is not telling the motor to engage. These units are cheap second hand and can be installed easily, but I don’t know exactly the problem, I’m not a mechanic. 3: The driveshaft that goes from the front to the rear wheels had an internal failure and my mechanic gave me the option of replacing it or just removing it making the car a front wheel drive car; I chose to remove it and drive the car as a front wheel drive (this is done often when these parts fail). The part is in the car ready for somebody else to have it repaired (The shaft has a core charge for replacement so you need the old one to keep the cost down on the part) it’s an easy swap out with a handful of bolts, my mechanic removed it for $30… The bolts are in the car too if you choose to replace it. (This was misdiagnosed and they pulled the emergency brake thinking that was the noise but they were wrong and couldn’t reinstall it so there is no emergency break) 4: Check engine light is on, I was told it is one of the oxygen sensors – common on these older cars to fail, not worth replacing unless you want to. 5: Tires don’t have much life left in them, but the rear brakes and rotors are new. I’m moving and I have to make the car gone so I’m selling it cheap. A good weekend wrench could make this a decent daily driver pretty quick but I’m not a mechanic so I can’t put the money into it myself. Yes, it would also make a pretty good parts car as most of it is in pretty good condition with the usually dings and scratches for a car this old. I'm not warranting anything as I'm selling it as-is and for cheap cheap cheap... I've tried to describe all the issues but I'm not a mechanic so these are what I know, anything else I'm not aware of. This is being sold though other avenues so the listing could end at any time...
