I just bought a 85 740 GLE WITH 126K MILES ON IT. It LOOKS LIKE IT WAS A 2 OWNER VEHICHLE. It drives great and looks good, only a few problems all cosmetic.
1) power antenae dosn't work
2) needs trunk shocks
3) front 2 turn signal lense broken as well as corner lamp
4) grey velour seeats faded, they look green!
What are some mechanical issues to look out for on a 85 740. Any help would be apreciated. I have a 98 s70 and a 2000 s70 t-5 so I have had volvos before, just not older ones.

Thanks
Dennis
