1973 Volvo 1800ES Wagon
 
My grandfather is selling his Volvo wagon that he purchased new in 1973. It has been garaged since new but needs some work. He has everything for it plus extras. It has the manual 4 speed with overdrive. The car is located in Florence,OR. He's asking $5,000.00 for it. PM me if you are interested.

I'm assuming you've hit the Volvo specialist sites? I have no idea about Volvos, and this looks kind of cool, but the market for everything is awfully soft what I've seen.

That looks so damn cool. (I need more money for more cars)

I like a lot of Volvos actually, they have some unique design elements, and yes this does look cool.

I'm hoping that it doesn't sell and one day he just decides to give it to me. A SBC will fit nicely in the engine bay!

I can hear the conversation between 2 young kids now... "You got beat by an old Volvo?!

I always say a SBC will fit in anything but that does look a tad bit small

Imagine this in black, a bit tattered. . . .with a Corvette 327 from the 60s and an automatic trans.

That's what my mom had for a while back in the 90s until she realized it was only a matter of time before I threw my brother out on the freeway.

Kids yused to pull up at lights and sometimes laugh. Depending on my mom's mood she'd drop the hammer. The trans kind of sucked, but sometimes it would hook and it would just take off. Many a teenage boy was left dumbfounded.

Get the 3.4 V8 out of the Taurus SHO and drop it in. That little V8 would fit in a go kart
