That's what our '75 looked like when we first got it. The rust started showing up shortly thereafter... :(

What do you guys think that blue 144s has for a motor in it? $3500 seems steep but it is blue... =P~

Looks like a b20B according to Bill http://www.nuceng.ca/bill/volvo/databas ... s.htm#1969

Price is not bad if it's as good as it looks in the pics, nice ones are getting pretty rare and often are autotragics. I still have to wonder if this was an OSD car with the odometer being in km's.

Pretty clean 1980 244GL in the Hat for $1K or offers that appears well cared for, no visible rust. Seems odd that it's a GL so sunroof, leather, A/C, but has crank windows??

Not bad! To my knowledge, you won't find GL's with power windows until a year or two later. I've seen GLE's, but never GL's.

I'm with Safford on this.

Edit - I do see some rust bubbling up in the picture you posted, Jim, but on the Kijiji ad i also noticed air and cruise, the center console coin tray, and very nice seats. Front door panels are a little trashed though. Nice car, for a 4 door.

Someone needs to tell the guy just because it has a tach doesn't qualify it as a rally gauge package. And what's with the rear bumper? Is that the 10mph safety mod? Looks to be about 3" too far south...

In front of the DS wheel well?? Never noticed it on the first pass. Looks like an issue or 2 as would be expected, but generally a lot nicer than average.

Yeah looks like it's been tweaked as the PS side looks ok??

Accckkk!!!! And right in our backyard, showed it to Lisa and she was all oooh and ahhh, lol. She saw a 245 down in Kalispell a couple of years ago in that light yellow and was all in love. If I had an acreage there'd be hell to pay. :twisted:

Nice looking 1990 245 in Cowtown with 290K for $2K, autotragic but a decent price for what appears to be a well kept unit.
