Description:

1979 Volvo 245 Wagon, manual 4 speed w/over drive. This car has been in the same family since new. Was a California car until 2006 when it came to Virginia. In good drivable original condition. Good tires, you can drive this home. Speedometer shows 270k or so but is broken as many of these are. Previous owner stated the engine was swapped with a newer one with less mileage and has approximately 170k as of now. Clutch replaced about 10k miles ago. Engine runs strong and overdrive works as it should. Being a California car, rust is not really an issue however there is some bubbling of paint at the base of the rear side window on the drivers side. There are also some hail dings on the hood but this car was never a show car. Typical Volvo leaks around the windshield but nothing too extreme. New windshield rubber could be needed. Gas gauge was working, now it may not be - could be just low on gas. I don't drive this vehicle daily. Overall a solid collectible Volvo with many years of life left in it! Send questions if you have them.

The car does not have an air conditioning system installed; it has heat, just not air conditioning. It could be retrofitted for not that much if a DIY job. Thanks for pointing out the omission.

Note: the passenger side and hood have been buffed and waxed. The driver side, roof and tailgate have not been buffed or waxed yet due mainly to lack of time and recent weather; it's been raining everyday for the past week. Passenger side is indicative of what the paint should look like once buffed and waxed completely. How soon I get around to finishing it depends on on whether or not the item sells, time and weather.
