    My $100 shitbox

    As promised, here's pics of the asswagon:






    needs a fuel pump but the trailer hitch and snow tires make it worth it alone. Oh, and it comes with a cage divider for the rear to throw the dogs.

    EXCELLENT cars!

    my brother has owned two 240's.... never broken down... and survived accidents any other vehicle would be crushed by.

    Good buy!

      My sis' first car was an 89 Volvo 240DL and good thing too because she would just about hit any telephone pole she sees.

            OMFG! That idea totally escaped me. What the hell! Well since my spoiled brother in law is going to help me work on it in the spare garage this winter there's no telling what may happen. It may see boost before its done...

                  Ever see that episode of top gear where they had to buy 3 cars at 100 pounds or less and run them through tests? There was a volvo like that being tested! What a coincidence, you should check it out.

                  *Edit* Watching it again, it was a sedan, 760 gle with a V6, close enough, watch it!

                        My aunt had one just like that... she was driving behind a truck carrying logs. The truck dropped its load right on her. This was about 15 years ago now.

                        She was at my wedding last week

                            and here's a pic I shot Oct 1st at twilight. Yes, my camera sucks.

                            Both are side by side with front bumpers even on a level driveway:


                            I cleaned under the hood of the Volvo, and found as serial number plate with 666 on it (uh oh). There's enough room under the hood to put in a good set of bigass airhorns.
