Anymore info on the car? Man/auto? Colour? Rust? Pics?
I bought a rough 76 for $150 but spent a lot more on a tidy 75 242.

was hoping $5000 !! probably the cleanest 244 in the country has rust near rear tail lights not much at all its near the join,,,,, a bit in pass rear door, that door isnt original thats why its only in 1 door.. very small hardly notice it and 1 spot near drivers rear quater window had head done some time back....

5k is a big number. It really had want to be something special. Unfortunately, these things aren't worth as much as they should be.
Do you have pictures?

I like how you say cleanest then list all the rusty bits , needs gas etc etc....

I sold my 1978 245 Wagon for $1150. Its had 128,000 Ks on it and not around the clock either.
The paint under the bonnet was mint!
Good luck!

Its not worth that.

Pictures and info? We could certainly help you value it..

Regarding remaining plus $500 is likely to be the realistic ballpark. Sorry.

I have a 1977 244DL I'm restoring. It had rust in the places you mentioned. I got it for free, and it was a one-owner car with 160,000km on it. If it were a super mint 244 with absolutely no rust the right buyer might pay $5000 for it, but as is it's probably not worth much. If the rust is very minor you could get a couple grand for it though.

I payed $2500 (then got $300 rego cash back) for my one owner original 75 242 with only a tiny patch of surface rust in the corner of the windscreen. I don't think many 240s sell for more than that these days and I consider myself a bit silly for paying it but I do love the car.
I'd say $1000 is realistic money for yours.

I have a strange feeling that I have said that twice.. ;)

Oh it's you! With the nice 740? If the 244 is anything like your 740 it should be pretty nice.
volvo1975
