Thanks for the replies :) its had 3 owners from new me being the latest, it started of life with a old lady owner in all the years she owned it from new she racked up a whole 7000 miles and the guy i brought it of only did 5000 miles in the time he had it, its been stored on and off through the years and very well kept, had a look underneath and the car its perfect, as i have started using it as a daily i have completely re wax oiled it to try and preserve its solid body the engine is also well kept and runs really sweet and has been just as well maintained, although i will be changing it and not keeping it original id like to say it will not be turned into some drift spec volvo that gets abuse and then just get scrapped it will be done properly. ill put some more pics up as soon as i start a project thread thanks guys, matt.
