Another day, another Volvo ... (and it's a V6) 700 1988

Had a quick glance at the FAQ on B280F engines before I left earlier the evening ... and back home now, a full blown search didn't reveal much more on this engine.

Anyways, the name 'Kermit' seems to be sticking to this '88 760 GLE, since it has the V6 frog motor and it's #402 green-blue in color. Engine was really smooth, quiet, and powerful ... compared to all the n/a 4-cylinders I've always had. :) Interior was very clean, as was the exterior(*) - I only saw one scratch, and not even a door ding.

Only 101k miles ... just wondering if there any known aspects that should be taken care of at this point.

* - except for the reason why it was being sold. It was hit in the front left, and the shop wanted too much $$$ to get it fixed. A 3-lb. mallet, some parts off the Sacraficial Brick, an alignment job, and zip ties should get it all back to looking like new however.
