1988 Volvo 240 Description

This car runs great and I would not hesitate to take it cross country if need be. Averages 22mpg hwy, so probably even more if you're a bit of a reserved driver. After the head was rebuilt I took it on a 300+mile roundtrip trip to the coast and just again on about a 100 mile roundtrip trip to go hiking. The reason I'm selling is because I've ran out of money for another Volvo 945 turbo project and without a job money is tight. The tabs also expired at the end of April. There is no rust anywhere. The block and chassis are the only thing with 300k miles. Compression test on the engine before head rebuild came to about 160psi on each cylinder besides #2 cylinder,120+psi, where previous headgasket failed. Small spot(less than the size of a baseball) on roof where clear coat is peeling next to the small dent above drivers door near a pillar. Other small dent on hatch. It's in great shape for a 28 year old car with only two little dents that are noticeable. Ask me any questions you'd like or if you want more pictures ask away.
The title is clear and in my name.
