Giving up on 850 - suggestions needed 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Volvo fan on  Tue Aug 9 17:47 CST 2011 [RELATED]

We have a beautiful 97 840 GLT sedan my wife loves and doesn't want to part with. Have had it since about 1998, second owner. All receipts. Always been in So Cal. Unfortunately I think it is the head gasket as it is loosing coolant every trip and I don't want to keep messing with it. Have faithfully serviced and repaired so hate to just junk it. It would be a great parts car as body, wheels, and everything else is in beautiful shape. Just don't want to work on it any more as I have 2 940s and 1 240 to work on.

Thinking of donating but I can only get deduction for $500 if I donate it. Should I try to sell as is? or part out? or ?
