I had a young guy knock on my door a couple of days back wanting to buy my 1982 Volvo GLT. I hadn't been considering selling it because we've owned the car for 22 years now and it is a bit of a family pet. I would like it to go to a good owner however and I am not getting any younger.

The car's finish is not terrific. Lots of oxidized sections, particularly the hood and trunk and there is some obvious rust just aft of the lower left door above the rocker panel. It has mag wheels but they have lost most of their silver paint. Engine runs well but I have not had it checked in many a year. I try to maintain it every year with oil changes, etc. I usually go through the Haynes manual recommendations and look at plugs, flame trap, etc.

So it is not in mint condition but it is not a wreck either. Good brakes, runs well. And it has the B23 engine in it to give it good boost. Oh, it also has a new windshield, just installed last year.

What would such a car be worth?.
