so far on my 1982 244 DL kjet...here is what i have done to upgrade the car.
First off the paint and body were in almost pristine condition when i bought it. Like the the car wasn't even sat in or something (owned by old people). The paint job was original and the car had been garaged its whole life...so the paint looks new...i really mean new. The back windeows are all tinted professionally.
unfortunately the engine compartment was another story. here is what i've done to upgrade:
New waterpump, thermostat, timing belt, injector seals, intank fuel pump, 4 michelin radial x tires,total new muffler job, pcv system replaed, spark plug wires, throttle/choke system cleaning and idle reset, sway bar bushings, oil pressre switch, 3 seals near timing belt, new front brake pads, and a missing transmission cover was put on, and i just fixed the vacuam check valve issue with the pressure loss during acceleration.'
When i look back i think i was crazy to do all that to repair the car...but hey :). Some repairs were done by volvo dealership (not much), most by rc imports mechanics, and some by myself.
what have you guys done...oh and also how much would a car like this be worth?
