Looking to buy a 1983 245 dl , currently own a 1984 244gl 200

posted by  someone claiming to be ryansvolvos on  Fri Apr 15 12:31 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I recently purchased a 244gl 1984 , I have put a little work into her and I love her. Problem is she is a automatic and 4 door. I need a stick and a little more cargo room. SO the woman keeps her !

I scouted a 1983 245dl 4 speed manual asking 600$ 180,000 second owner. I am fairly familar with 200 series mid eightes . However I have only worked on 244 model s ..

I know that 83/84 are the only two years for some of the parts of these beauties.(ignitions lh 2.1 )

MY QUESTIONS ARE! How much different is the 245 1983 gl from a 1984 244gl , other than the obvious body style. And are there any precautions to look for that differ from typical 1983-84 200 volvos. (wiring relays, etc.)

NE advice helpful , Also i have never driven an stick volvo , any advice to look for faulty parts appreciated.
