Yeesh, I wonder how much the engine rebuild cost?

They should add: "Will need to be dug out of back yard"

This one's in very nice shape, but $20 large???? I'm guessing he thinks the gold paint makes it worth the price. :lol:

From the ad:

1988 Volvo GLE 740 sedan. Showroom condition.
garage kept by an elderly lady.
112,600 original Km
This car is one of a kind in North America.
Assembled in Halifax.
$20,000.00 firm. serious buyers or collectors only. (bolded by me cuz it made me laugh)
Nigerian scam artists will be eliminated.

Good grief! What are people thinking? He'll be lucky to get a $2000 offer on that. It's nothing but a plain jane 740...with those hideous wheels...

Someone send him this link to something as nice and far more desirable for what still is a pretty optimistic price...

When i first noticed the ad I thought it was a typo ie: one too many zero's. It's not quite a plain jane as it's a GLE, but nothing special for sure. We bought our 86 GLE brand new for $21 ish so this car was low 20's new so I am thinking he "needs" the $20K to buy more of the hallucinogenic substance he consumed while pricing this car. :lol:
