[sold] [eBay] [volvrek] '75 245 Wagon in Victoria

jaykenneally

This car is so cool and I would love to give it a good home but A) I don't have $275 and B) Cant justify having 4 Volvos and C) Even if I kept it in the backyard and slowly worked on it, do I want a 245? Well yes and no, mum doesn't like it cos its so old but I like it cos its so cool!

I thought Id put it in here anyway cos its such a cool thing and I hope someone on here can save it!

I wouldn't mind a couple of interior bits but it's a bit too expensive for that, maybe if it gets relisted at $100 I'll have a go. :))

jaykenneally

I think its excellent value, its just I dont have $275 right now, and I cant justify four Volvos :(

jaykenneally

If you're going to scrap it, I'll give you $50 for the front seats, and you'll still get your $300 from the scrap people. I'll even remove them myself!

iceton1975

Thanks for your offer it will be considered, but I want to try have someone rescue the car complete, the grill is also in the car.

Angus242164

Yeah that's fair enough, I don't think you'll send it to scrap any time soon.

What else do you have in that storage yard?

Mum wants an XC70 or V70, the second generation (same as mine) in basically any exterior colour as long as the interior isn't black she's happy. But we're also broke so if its a 'project' car and is on the cheap we'd consider it!

Im so tempted to get that 245 and make it really sweet..... I will think!
