1986 244 DL high-speed driving question 200

I just picked up my new Volvo today and I can tell it won't be long before it's love. However, my new car has some issues at and above 65 MPH.

The steering wheel begins this shimmy dance when I hit 65 (the speed limit on most highways in PA). Now, I had two immediate thoughts, either it needs a front end alignment or one of the tires is off balance. Could I be on course with this or could it be something more drastic like the sway bar or ball joints.

I think the steering is kinda loose as well but seeing how I don't know if I know what that means, I'm not sure.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
