Volvo 245 in Silver - Daily Driver with Lots of Work Done and Bonus Items

1986 Volvo 245 DL

1986 Volvo 245 brick in solid running condition. This car was made with integrity, built to run pretty much forever. And, you can get any part you need inexpensively right in Portland (see IPD, Pick-N-Pull, etc). Super safe, built like a tank!
We purchased it in 2013 and did a ton of work on it. Repairs and known issues are listed after the ad. Next, we drove it to northern Arizona, Santa Barbara, CA, up the coast highway through the Redwoods and back home to Oregon. It ran like a champ the entire time...in 107 degree heat, through mountainous passes and reaching a max speed of 120 mph - impressive, right?! Since then, it has been the daily driver of a full-time mom who prefers to walk and doesn't go far most days. Last summer a friend offered her a more modern vehicle. She couldn't refuse. So, old reliable needs a new home. Mileage unknown but greater than 154,000 miles. $2800 or make us a reasonable offer!
