So the step-father of a friend of mine owns a towing company in Reno. Yesterday I drove up with a friend to Reno to go see a few of them (was told there was one Camry and one Volvo worth considering). The Camry ended up being a great parts car, but we couldn't get a title for it. The Volvo turned out to be two Volvos, IMO, worth considering.
The second one was a 75 164E. The slushbox is toast. Body looks great (save the oxidized rustbucket colored red paint). It supposedly runs and has a clean title (hey, for $50, I'm extremely interested). I'm looking for an automatic transmission that will work (BW35?), but if I'd love a manual (if I could find all the requisite parts). Anyone between the SF Bay Area and Reno have one that will work?
