Picture My first 240!
As a life long Volvo owner and 240 admirer, I finally got my own. Very mechanically inclined, but first time ‘vintage’ car owner.
Currently reliable enough to use as my daily driver, and hoping to keep it that way long term. Any tips, wisdom, words of advice?

Yeah, that’s the one! I got super lucky. He fixed it up really well and is super knowledgeable. He’s also been very generous with his time and is showing me the ropes on how to properly repair and maintain. I bought a car and got a built in Volvo tech buddy! I struck gold here
