1971 Volvo 1800 wagon Description

We checked on this car a couple times a year but it was never for sale. Finally we got the call! The man was picking up stakes and heading east. The car was never supposed to be for sale but skyrocketing costs of living had forced a hasty move. We rushed over and loaded up and headed out.The fish bowl volvo has been untouched for a decade. The gas smells bad. The lower quarters have some thru-rust spots. We are spoiled in California, the rust is not heavy. The tires hold air and the car rolls easily. The sunroof is a bummer dude. The dash is cracked. On the positive, the floors look fine. The keys and title are here. The glass is in good shape and I have found no signs of accident damage. This is a hard car to find, especially an untouched time capsule. Take it away, shipping is no problem.
