One of those Volvos running (mostly to texas roadhouse and applebees) around the Indiana U campus is my niece's 740 wagon that I maintain religiously.

Sort of curious myself what kind of garages are available over there, as thi is her first year. I understand that the Volvo-only garage just went out of business after 25 years (owner passed away?) not sure of the location, but they were selling stuff on ebay.

The funny thing is that I almost bought her a 1991 240 off of ebay this weekend, but wasn't sure I could find a quick buyer for her 1988 740. Turns out all the girls in her dorm (honors)love her wagon and two want to buy it - go figure?

Actually, I have changed the exhaust manifold gaskets myself and it was not too bad - but I never broke a stud! I give free Volvo advice to any IU or Miami U. (my alma mater) students or grads! LOL
