Ovlov



I've been lusting after a 1970 Volvo 1800E that sits in a parking lot next
door to my place of business.  I went over to check it out a coupla days
ago (yes, the thing was completely unlocked - got to look over the engine
bay, interior, and trunk) and the car is EXTREMELY straight.  Hardly a
ding.  The orange paint is shot, but I don't think I've seen a 26 year old
car body look this good.  Anybody out there know anything about these?  I
love the shape.  Can you make one of these as fast as it looks?  Dude
wants $3k for it and isn't really looking to sell (ie THAT'S what he'll
get for it IF he sells it).  Any comments?

I guess I should spend my efforts instead trying to talk Eagle Imports
into selling me that '87 4kcsq for three grand.  They're asking $4200.
Phhhh!  Guy said, "We don't expect it to be here more'n a coupla days."
That was three weeks ago.
