Yes, I am the owner of the vehicle.
No, I did not view the vehicle beforehand, and to be fair I would not have seen the horrors underneath even if I did (Its a bit rude to go around poking holes in the car)
I knew the MOT history first and for a car of its age its what I expected with the one advisory on the spare wheel well.
This was not meant to be a restoration as I am still in the long term restoration of another Volvo which I was also told to just scrap.
Original plan was to fix the rear end and then use it after the engine got serviced. Now its a bit more involved.

… as I said in the above Jackman: ‘you are a better man than I am, Gunga Din!’.
I am really impressed that you are going to stick at it and repair the 244, I really like the model (I had a 1980 244 until recently and now have a 1982 240 saloon); I hope you will start a project thread and keep us informed of progress.
Good fortune,
Alan
PS. We are all stupid - none of this old Volvo stuff makes any sense
