Bought an 88 744 NA for the grand price of $100. I'm thinking that it's got a bad head gasket, but it's destined to 'parts car' status reguardless. I hate to part it out, it's really a good looking car for the most part. Alas, I need the parts and DO NOT need another 7xx. (gotta try and remember to get pictures tomorrow)

I've got to yank the pwr mirrors, front turn signals, sun roof parts, some under hood parts, both headlight brackets, the brand new exhaust, neutral saftey switch assembly, new fan clutch, a window regulator, and some other various parts for a few of our cars.

Whatever's left of this car and my 86 744 NA parts car will be up for sale or trade here. Still going to need several parts and hope to do some more trading. Several of you great ppl have already helped out quite a bit with my addiction.


SO, here's the current count:
79 245 NA "The Brick" brick color, dark brown interior
82 242 NA "Un-named project car" almost completed the transplant of a 91's power train, but won't be done for some time yet. (too many colors to list), no interior
85 744 NA (Bride's car) manual (j-type OD), silver w/black interior
86 760 TIC "un named" Daughter's car, baby diaper yellow with black interior and on it's 4th engine in less than a year! (she's quite the engine killer, but the AW's still strong
86 744 NA J-type OD (the one in the car's bad, the good one's in the trunk. lol), grey w/ tan interior. Runs great, NEEDS A HOME!
86 744 parts car, no drive train, most of the interior's gone as are the hood and one fender. It's dark grey and HAD tan interior.
86 745 TIC, "Go-Mor" P-type OD (converted), black interior, Perfection as it can be seen in an 86 model, this one will be leaving me this week as my sister in law has finally decided to try Volvo for a change (that and the fact that I'm GIVING it to her)
87 744 NA "Morpheous" ZF, grey w/tan, my highway/work car, GREAT car, but I do need to pay some attention to it's apperence here and there, WAY too much of a sound system (but WTH).
88 745 TIC "Un-named" project car. AW, hunter green w/tan, soon to get the complete systems from the NEXT LISTED car and become an NA car.
88 744 NA new parts car, Gold w/tan, ZF, fairly heavily optioned compared to my other 744s
90 245 TIC "Gert" P-type (conversion) IPD sways and sport springs burgandy (was white)w/ newly upolstered black leather interior, WAY too much of a sound sytem for a man my age (WTH), E-codes, custom stainless exhaust w/single FlowMaster, full poly bushings, just about everything I could through @ it over time. This one's slated to be auctioned off for a diabetes charity this summer.

And that's just the Volvos!

One of these days I'm gonna have to quit, but we all gotta die sooner or later ;) lol
