Howdy RoachCoach,

Look at the paint finish. Does it look like it is over 40 years old? The only original paint car that I have ever seen that looked "brand new" after 30 years was a tediously tended to '72 Porsche 911 with less than 30K miles after 25 years. That car was garaged AND covered most of the time. It was cleaned and waxed after every use.

To answer your question directly: Volvo quality control was not slipshod in any manner. If you bought the car as "original, including paint" and you've found drips and over spray, you've been had.
