This is my beyond post, figured I would drop it in here also..I hate to sell it, but I am hungering for a 2 door...

Fs: 1988 Volvo 740 Wagon

Need to sell, trying to get my new car going. I have put a lot of work into the car, runs well. It has around 269,000 kms on it. It a very fun car, its roomy, great for moving stuff around..it also seats 7. The car is 4spd manual with electronic overdrive and RWD. I have pretty much restored the car to stock state, but it is still pretty quick.

The car is loaded, it has:
- Power windows
- Power doorlocks
- Power sunroof
- cruise control
- 4 wheel discs
- ABS
- driver side airbag
- heated seats
- power mirrors

There aren't too many mods on the car, I put in TME sport springs, give it a
bit stiffer ride with great handling and lowers the car about 2 inches. It
also has a Volvo A cam, with adjustable cam gear and 3 inch mandrel bent
exhaust. It also has MSD blaster coil and 8 mm wires. It also has a turbo
sedan rear sway bar to help with cornering. It comes with a boost gauge and
A/F gauge, it used to have a manual boost controller, but I removed it.

Recent maintenance:
- New starter motor
- new spark computer
- new distributor
- recent oil change
- new airbox intake(stock turbo volvo)
- new wiper pumps for front and rear, and new washer resevoir
- new fuel pump relay
- new shifter knob (old one broke a clip)
- alignment has been done
- new deck installed, pioneer deh7600mp
- new front passenger control arm, strut rod and rim
- the previous owner had replaced the wiring harness in the engine bay, the powerstage, injector resistors and block heater

The Bad
- slight knock when left turns are made, inspected by Mr.Volvo, they say it's the 3'' exhaust knocking on a wheel mount
- slight rust on passenger side
- clearcoat is peeling quite a bit

Asking 2000$ for it. If you have any questions feel free to shoot me an email or pm.
