It's a 1989 Volvo 240DL. :D It's my winter beater. I'm sure it was a very nice and expensive car back in the day. It's still nice for a 15 year old car, but it definitely wasn't expensive. $400 :bounce:

Another view of the beast

HAHA Sweet ass! My mom bought one of those brand new back in the 80s. Definetly reliable and easy to fix. Should run forever if taken care of.

dude! that thing looks mint!!! is it really as clean as it appears?

Not quite. There's very little rust on it, just a spot behind the front wheel where the paint was chipped. The paint is faded alot on the hood, but it looks like a good solid body with only a few dents here and there. Overall, pretty good shape for a 15 year old car though.

Funny thing about Volvo's is that you can fit a Ford 5.0 V8 into the 240 using the same motor mounts, and even the stock Volvo tranny (bell housing is the same). Wierd huh. :idea:

Yea the V8 conversion is pretty popular. :)

i am sorry, very sorry.

those are the biggest peices of shit ever.

but at least its an 89, shouldnt have all of the common problems that the older ones did....at least not yet

That's a strong statement on a DSM site about another car. ;)

I can totally see you driving this. lol :D

240s are very reliable cars, volvos in general are tanks. Why do you say they are shit?
