THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner is this rare classic 1979 Volvo 262C coupe!
Finished in silver metallic over black leather interior, this 37 year-old classic Bertone-designed Volvo coupe has been driven just over 89, 200 miles since purchased new here in the San Francisco bay area. It sports a nice running 2.7 liter V6 engine mated to the factory automatic transmission. Other features include padded black vinyl top, alloy wheels, electric windows, updated cd stereo, electric leather seats, wood trim and more. It is being sold with the original small California pink slip certificate of title, two keys, factory tools, jack.and owners manual.

PLEASE CALL 650-350-8828 FOR QUESTIONS, TEST DRIVES AND/OR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS.
THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this 1979 Volvo coupe is in good 99.9% rust-free driver-quality condition throughout. The chrome and trim are in quite good condition, the paint has a nice overall shine. There are two small corrosion bubbles at the base of the A pillars along with various cosmetic nicks, scratches and other minor blemishes one would expect from a 30+ year-old car.
THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this car is in VERY good to excellent condition throughout with beautiful original black leather upholstery and wood trim. The electric windows, lights, blinkers, odometer and all other gauges are in excellent working order. Imperfections inside the car include, but not limited to a/c not blowing cold, some light wear on the upholstery and other surfaces, right window inoperative. Overall this is still one very handsome and comfortable cockpit!
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1979 Volvo starts well, has good running engine with smooth acceleration, smooth shifting transmission, and drives down the road solidly in that old Swedish tradition.
There is a noticeable pedal pulsation under braking though the car stops straight and securely.
