Love the bumpity-bump-bump stickers...must get a PDD one asap!
Also, love the Volvos and happen to have two great 260DL wagons for sale. Will post more details and contact info when the sun is shining!
I have a '90 740 Wagon in the same color as the one posted with the sticker. I may be interested in getting another (you can never have too many Volvos). I have a slight addiction. There is no cure.
so...every tome we pass someone driving a volvo...we feel compelled to wave and say "Hi Volvo."
I do need to get to B&N to pick up a Chilton's soon. I'm a pretty good backyard wrench monkey, but most of my experience is with Yodas and VW's. This is actually my first experience with a Volvo...though I've always (always) wanted one.
As I look at it, the throttle body injection system is pretty simple, a little more complicated than a two barrel carb, but still tinkertoys.
We've got some cosmetic issues to deal with, but the rest is pretty easy. Replacing some lenses and a head liner. I looked through the records and found out that the exhaust is only 7 years old.
Whatever the outside condition, you really can't beat making 125 (highway) miles on a quarter tank of gas.

Now you're speaking my language...too bad I'm a broke lil boy right now...I wanna make us a two Volvo family.
We're in an 88 740 GLE, but I really like the simpler scaled back 240 and 260 models.
We also love the volvos!
