Default New project 244GL

Hello everyone,

First time poster; please let me know if this is in the wrong place.

I would really appreciate your advice. I'm not a mechanic, am actually a philosophy lecturer, but I love cars (particularly 240 Volvos and VW Beetles) and would love to learn more about them. I found this 1981 Volvo 244GL, at a very good price. The car is running, it has less than 200k in the clock and very little rust in the body. My idea is to buy it and restore it. Does this project sound insane given my lack of technical knowledge? Or is it possible to learn on the way?

I have no rush; it doesn't matter if the restoration takes several years. You advice would be really helpful. Thanks!
