(cut and pasted from Beyond.ca...so lots of Volvo info that you guys likely know).

I'm selling my Volvo wagon to make room for my new project. It's an 88 740 wagon. It's a very hard to find turbo manual tranny wagon. It has 260,000KM on it, runs great and just had a lot of work put in to it. The body's still in great shape, but the clearcoat is peeling in some spots. Lots of room for hauling parts, snowboards and people (seats 7). The best part is that it's RWD. This thing is a blast to drive and surprises a lot of people. It would make a fun winter car, daily driver, or something fun to take to Race City for some drifting. I'm looking to get $1,500 for it. Will consider trades for a clean Civic EF or EG hatch +/- cash depending on the car.

The car is fully loaded (except leather):
power windows
power sunroof
power mirrors
power locks
heated seats
cruise control
rear discs
ABS
driver's side airbag
rear jump seat (3rd row) that folds in to the floor

Mods:
3" mandrel bent exhaust
Volvo A cam
adjustable cam gear
manual boost controller
boost gauge
A/F gauge
MSD Blaster coil
MSD 8mm wires
lowered 2"
turbo sedan rear sway bar
Open intake w/K&N cone filter

Recent maintenance, replaced the following parts in the last year:
wiring harness in the engine bay
distributor
HALL sensor (in the distributor)
spark plugs
AMM (air mass meter)
powerstage (ignition)
injector resistors
block heater

Sorry, the Civic hatch is the only trade I'd consider. But the car's around if you want to take a look. Just give me a phone call, the number's posted above.
