The electrical problems on 240's were all before 1988 so if you buy '88 or later you won't have the electrical wiring degradation that was famous from '85-'87.

If you're going for a wagon make sure it is at least a '91-'93, the older models had cargo window seals that began to leak later in life and cause rust problems. '91-93 wagons had flush mount windows on the windshield, the tailgate AND the cargo windows which resolved that problem.

I've been looking for one in the boneyard for about a year now ...
