hello all,
Thought id post up a few pics of my 240 wagon, shes a 1988 240 DL 2.3L redblock on carb, shes a 4 speed with 200,000 miles on the clock.
I bought it off my mate who had originally brought it in from England for himself but i convinced him to sell it to me instead after i sold my Saab. So far its had a full clean inside and out and been waxed and detailed. I got some roof bars a basket and a cycle carrier for the bikes. Have re-sprayed the steel wheels and all the lower plastic trims which had grayed, added a few stickers etc.. to the tail gate, some pressed plates and i got a set of genuine 70's Hella 160's.
Future plans are the 40mm lowering springs i have to be installed and i have some dogdish hub caps to be put on. There a wee bit of welding needs done on the outersills infront of both rear tires. In the future might go stupid and change engines or something but right now its my daily driver and im just enjoying being in a volvo for the first time!

this was it rolled of the boat

btw i know the hellas are not even, lesson learned measure twice drill once. lol

cheers for looking Rob
