I PURCHASED THIS CAR 11 YEARS AGO AND HAS BEEN IN MY GARAGE OTHER THAN DRIVING IT, FOR THE ENTIRE DURATION OF OWNERSHIP. IT HAS BEEN SERVICED AND COVERED FROM TIME TO TIME WITH A COUPLE OF SHEETS. *THIS WAS PURCHASED BY ME 11 YEARS AGO FROM MY NEIGHBOR JOHN. AT THE TIME I OWNED THREE OTHER VOLVO'S AND HAD ALWAYS LOOKED TO PURCHASE A 164 E. JOHN DID A LOT OF TRAVELS THROUGHOUT OHIO AND RAN INTO THIS PARTICULAR ONE. I OF COURSE DIDN'T HESITATE TO PURCHASE THIS CAR. I IN TURN SOLD ONE OF MY OTHER VOLVO'S AT THE TIME AND SOON PURCHASED THIS ONE. HE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE ON PAPER FOR LESS THAN THREE WEEKS & WAS TRANSFERRED TO ME. *PRIOR HISTORY OTHER THAN JOHN AND MYSELF IS UNKNOWN; OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT SOMEONE FROM THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS 99TH DISTRICT ( PARKING LOT 18). OWNED THIS AS WELL. THE STICKER STILL REMAINS ON THE FRONT BUMPER. THEIR WAS ALSO ANOTHER REFERENCE OF CONGRESS CERTIFICATION STICKER ATTACHED ON THE FRONT AS WELL BUT HAS LONG SINCE FALLEN OFF FROM AGE. * *THIS VOLVO OF COURSE HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVORITE AND WAS THE ONLY ONE I CHOOSE TO HANG ONTO TOO. I'VE OWNED THIS 11 YEARS & PLANNED ON KEEPING IT FOREVER. . . . I GUESS FOREVER ONLY HOLDS ABOUT 11 YEARS. ANYWAY, I'VE DECIDED TO FINALLY PART WITH IT; IN ORDER TO MOVE ON TO OTHER THINGS. I THOUGHT I'D SHARE WHAT LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY OF THE VEHICLE I DO KNOW. * C O N D I T I O N : * THE CONDITION OVERALL IS COLLECTIBLE. * THIS CAR IS VERY SOLID THROUGHOUT. THEIR ARE NO INDICATIONS OF RUST ON THE BODY. ONLY SLIGHT SURFACE REMAINS VISIBLE UNDERNEATH. *THE VOLVO HAS ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL CHROME TRIM THROUGHOUT. WHICH IS ACTUALLY HARD TO OBTAIN THESE DAYS. *THE DETACHABLE THULE SKI RACKS (MADE IN SWEDEN /MODEL 1050) DO IN FACT COME WITH THE VEHICLE AND CAN BE EASILY TAKEN OFF IF YOU CHOOSE OF COURSE. * ENGINE IS THE VOLVO SLANT 6 (6CYLINDER) MOTOR THAT RUNS VERY STRONG. (NO LEAKS!) *TRANSMISSION IS AN AUTOMATIC. IT SHIFTS PERFECTLY FINE WITHOUT FLAWS. (NO LEAKS) *EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR DOORS: *THE DOORS ARE VERY SOLID AND HEAVY AND OPEN AND CLOSE LIKE NEW. THE INTERIOR PANELS ARE ALL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITHOUT ANY TEARS OR FLAWS. THE ONLY PANEL THAT APPEARS TO HAVE WEAR IF ANY IS THE DRIVER DOOR WHICH I PICTURED IN LISTING. *WINDOWS : ARE CRANK ROLL DOWN. ALL FOUR CRANKS AND ROLL DOWN OPERATE SMOOTHLY. THE GLASS IS THE HEAVY THICK LIGHT GREEN TINT THAT THE NO LONGER MAKE. ALL WINDOWS OF THIS VOLVO HAVE THE VINTAGE GREEN TINT. *TRUNK: SOLID INSIDE AND OUT = NO RUST AT ALL. * SINCE I'VE OWNED THIS VEHICLE I'VE REPLACE ONLY THE FOLLOWING: *CHANGED OIL & FILTER *PURCHASED NEW POINTS & DISTRIBUTOR *FLUSHED OUT ALL FLUIDS AT PERIOD OF NOT DRIVING. *THREE MONTHS AGO REPLACED BRAKE LINE HOSE (PASSENGER FRONT) $67.00 *I RECENTLY CHANGED THE OIL AND BOUGHT 4 BRAND NEW TIRES FOR THE VEHICLE. I SET THE TRIP GAUGE BECAUSE I KNEW I WAS GOING TO SELL. *TIRES HAVE 117 MILES ON THEM ONLY! *I WANT TO MAKE MENTION OF THE ODOMETER : * THE ODOMETER IS NON ACTUAL BUT HAS WORKED EVER SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE. IT READ 79,??? WHEN I PURCHASED 11 YEARS AGO AND HAVE PUT OVER 3,000 PLUS MILES ON SINCE THEN ENDING AT 83,054 & CLIMBING CONSIDERING I'VE DRIVING IT TO WORK SINCE JULY 4TH. *GAUGES : ALL SEEM TO WORK, FROM OIL PRESSURE TO TEMPERATURE GAUGE TO FUEL GAUGE AND SO ON. *LIGHTS = ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS WORK! = HEADLIGHTS, FOG LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, HAZARDS, ETC.,, *RADIO WORKS = AM FM RADIO AND DASH SPEAKER. THE REAR SPEAKER IS NOT WORKING. I'VE NOTICED I GET LESS AM RADIO STATIONS LATELY BUT IT DOES HOWEVER PICK UP FM STEREO BETTER AND A WIDER ARAY. *A/C = DOES NOT WORK! IT DOES HAVE THE STANDARD R12 COMPRESSOR AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER IT'S OPERATIONAL OR NOT. IT WAS NEVER THAT MUCH OF A CONCERN TO ME OVER THE YEARS. IT WAS NOT WORKING WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND STILL IS NON OPERABLE. *INTERIOR = THE DASH IS VERY GOOD IN CONDITION WITHOUT CRACKS AND SPLITS. (BLACK IN COLOR) *INTERIOR DOOR PANEL ARE BLACK AND WONDERFUL CONDITION. *SEATING = FAIR CONDITION! THE SEATING BOTH FRONT AND REAR ARE IN FACT WEATHERED. THEY BOTH SHOW APPARENT SIGNS OF CRACKING AND A FEW SPLITS IN THE REAR SEATING. THEIR IS A CHUNK OUT OF THE PASSENGER FRONT AS SEEN IN REFERENCE PHOTOS. THE LEATHER FEEL TO THE FRONT IN ACTUALLY BETTER BECAUSE THEY WHERE COVERED FOR YEARS. THE REAR IS MORE DRY AND VERY MUCH LOST LUSTER. *FLOORING CARPET CONDITION IS ALSO FAIR. IT IS BLUE IN COLOR AND HAS STAIN MARKS HERE NOR THEIR. (PLEASE NOTE: THEIR IS NO ROTTING OF FLOORS OR RUST AT ANY OF THE DOOR ENTRY AREAS.) THE REAR PANEL BACK SEAT SHELF WAS ORIGINALLY BLUE BUT IS NOW WEATHERED ALSO TO A WASHED OUT FADE. *HEADLINER IS OFF-WHITE TO STONE IN COLOR AND IS IN VERY GOOD OR BETTER CONDITION. THEIR IS NO CRACKING OR TEARS NOR ANY SIGN OF IT DROOPING DOWN. *OTHER KNIT PICK NEGATIVES TO POINT OUT: THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR IS NOT ATTACHED BUT I DO IN FACT HAVE REPLACEMENT. (NOT INSTALLED) *DRIVER REAR QUARTER TRIM PIECE IS JUST NOW STARTING TO PEEL IN ABOUT A 3" SECTION. (MINOR) *INTERIOR DASH LIGHT BULB IS BURNED OUT! *SLIGHT MUFFLED SOUND AT MUFFLER. *THIS VEHICLE IS MECHANICALLY SOUND AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN REGULARLY SINCE JULY 4TH. (NO MECHANICAL ISSUES TO MENTION. * I WOULD TRUST THE VEHICLE TO GO ANYWHERE IN THE STATE OF OHIO. IT TAKES THE FREEWAY EASILY AT 65-70MPH AND GLIDES. *PLEASE NOTE: THAT THIS IN FACT IS A 40 YR OLD VEHICLE SO: WOULD I TRUST IT TO MAKE AN OUT OF STATE HAUL REFUELING EVERY 4 TO 5 HRS NON STOP? ? ? THAT'S QUESTIONABLE CONSIDERING IT'S BEEN STATIONARY LONGER THAN DRIVEN. *IT HAS IN FACT ALSO HAD FRESH GAS IN THE TANK AND I ALSO USED A LEAD ADDITIVE. (I KEEP IN THE VEHICLE! ) IT DOES IN FACT CUT DOWN ON EMISSIONS AND KEEP IT RUNNING SMOOTHER. *IF YOUR PLANS ARE TRANSPORTING OUT OF STATE WITH THIS VEHICLE I'D SUGGEST A CAR HAULER TO BE SAFE. EVEN THOUGH I DRIVE IT ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS NOW IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN A 1,800 MILE ROAD TRIP. *IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TEST DRIVE THIS VOLVO PLEASE CALL ME AT: 614-562-3918 ( ALLEN ) I DRIVE IT TO WORK QUITE REGULARLY & I WORK 11 TO 12 HRS A DAY : 6 DAYS A WEEK BUT WILL MAKE TIME OUT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO TEST DRIVE OR THAT MAY HAVE ANY OTHER INQUIRIES ON THE CAR.
