Vintage Volvo For Sale
Manual Station Wagon
The car runs. Recently had minor fixes. Needs love and attention from someone who likes to fix up vintage cars. This is a classic. And hard to find in this condition.
Looking for the most reasonable offer. Call or Email for more information.
I e-mailed the guy. I'm sure it will be a crackhead price vs a rust free car from California or Washington.
I would love to find one of these locally that wasn't a rusty heap.
After trying to sell my daily driver 73, which had very little rust, I'm convinced these are nearly valueless. I don't think I'd pay more than $3000 for an entirely rust free driving example. Maybe a little more if it had a working m410 overdrive.
Maybe valueless is the wrong term. Bargains? I guess it depends on which side of the equation you're on. Anyway, the 140 drives like a much more modern car than most of its contemporaries, thanks to power disc brakes, nicely tuned suspension, and an efficient robust little engine.

I was right. He wants $3.4k Interior needs work too.
Swing by Alice's restaurant after you buy it. That is basically the middle of nowhere in MA. Cool wagon though.
