HERE IS A GREAT ORIGINAL CALIFORNIA VOLVO...SO COOL, EBAY DOES NOT HAVE A LISTING FOR IT, I HAD TO CALL IT 'OTHER'...HMMM..... ANYWAY!..... IT IS A ONE OWNER (UNTIL I GOT IT A COUPLE MONTHS AGO) CALIFORNIA 'BLACK PLATE' CAR. IT IS THE DESIRABLE 2 DOOR SEDAN AUTOMATIC. IT CAME FROM AN ELDERLY LADY WHO PAMPERED IT ALL IT'S LIFE AND NOW BECAME TOO OLD TO DRIVE IT. IT GOT PARKED FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND I HAPPENED UPON IT AND PURCHASED IT. I HAD IT SERVICED, TUNED, NEW TIRES, AND THE ONCE OVER. I HAVE DRIVEN IT ALMOST EVERY DAY SINCE AND IT IS A GREAT RUNNING CAR. I HAVE PUT QUITE A FEW HUNDRED MILES ON IT. IT BURNS NO OIL WHATSOEVER, SHIFTS EXCELLENT, HAS NO LEAKS OF ANY KIND..IT IS A JOY TO DRIVE! I EVEN TOOK IT ON A COUPLE OF LONG JOURNEYS, AND IT PERFORMED PERFECTLY. THE BODY IS IN AWESOME CONDITION, THERE IS NO RUST IN THE FRAME, EVEN THE PAINT SHOWS UNDER THE ORIGINAL UNDERCOATING, WHICH IS MOSTLY INTACT. NO RUST IN FLOORS. THE ONLY ISSUE IS SHOWN IN THE PHOTO OF THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL WELL, NOT SURE WHY SINCE THE REST OF THE BODY IS NEAR PERFECT...THE CHROME AND BRITE-WORK IS VERY GOOD THROUGHOUT, WITH JUST A FEW MINOR IMPERFECTIONS HERE AND THERE. I'M NOT SURE IF THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL, IT LOOKS OLD, BUT IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. IF IT WAS REPAINTED, THE PAINT MATCH IS PERFECT TO THE DOOR JAMBS, THE ORIGINAL INTERIOR IS UNBELIEVABLE! HEADLINER IS EXCELLENT, THE UPHOLSTERY IS NEAR EXCELLENT WITH JUST ONE SMALL HOLE IN THE DRIVER SEAT, PROBABLY CAN BE REPAIRED. THE PADDED DASH IS CRACKED, BUT THE PAINTED PARTS AND CHROME PARTS ARE UNBELIEVABLE, THE HEADLINER IS EXCELLENT, AND THE COURTESY LIGHT EVEN WORKS!. DOOR PANELS ARE SUPER NICE. THE MAIN ISSUE IS THE RUBBER FLOOR MAT, IT HAS CRUMBLED AND SHOULD BE REPLACED. EVERYTHING WORKS AND IS AS IT SHOULD BE EXCEPT THE FOLLOWING...THE SPEEDOMETER READS FAST, THE TRUNK LID DOESN'T STAY UP VERY WELL, HORN INOPERATIVE, THERE IS NO DOOR KEY... MINOR STUFF, BUT I WANT TO MENTION IT ANYWAY. HEATER WORKS, GAUGES WORK, RADIO WORKS, ALL LIGHTS, ETC, ETC. THIS CAR IS A BLAST TO DRIVE, HAS GREAT ROAD MANNERS, AND GETS TONS OF HOOTS, HOLLERS, AND THUMBS UP!! ....IF YOU WANT A SUPER VOLVO, NOW IS THE CHANCE TO GET A GREAT PRESERVED CALIFORNIA CAR..BID TO WIN BECAUSE YOU MAY NOT FIND ANOTHER LIKE THIS FOR A LONG TIME.......AND IT'S RED!!!...... (I HAVE A VERY FAIR RESERVE ON THIS CAR. IF FOR SOME STRANGE REASON IT DOES NOT MEET RESERVE, I WILL CONTACT THE HIGHEST BIDDER TO WORK OUT A SALE..I WANT TO SELL THE CAR, SO YOU NEED TO BID TO WIN!!) Sorry, my camera conked out as I was going to show a trunk picture, the trunk is excellent, and has the spare and hardware. It only needs a new mat, it is hard and crumbly like the floor mats On Apr-14-12 at 10:28:41 PDT, seller added the following information: O.K....I ADDED A PIC OF THE TRUNK........AND...THAT SUPER-DESIRABLE ORIGINAL BILL OF SALE!!!
