I've got a chance to pick this up/save it.
Is there any interest in these,& are they worth anything?View attachment 44816View attachment 44817View attachment 44818

A couple more pictures.It comes with a bunch of extra parts,
some in really nice shape.

I think I'd just leave it there ...

+1 Leave it Doug - SWMBO and I were having this conversation the other day. There is a Mid 80's Audi Avant near here for little money in excellent shape - and I can't even justify it to myself! There's always a "good" deal out there. Sort out what you have, get rid of a few more, get what you have running well and let someone else save it.

I'll probably pick it up,as it's free,but have no plans
on keeping it.The owner's moving,& doesn't want to see it scrapped.
Plus,I have an empty car trailer that I can store it on.
I might also see if I can get something for it,to help pay for the
rest of the projects around here.

Is it possible to swap in the engine and front clip of a 164E and make a 162?

 

[AngliaGT]

Well,I picked it up.I had a buyer all lined up,but his Wife
changed her mind,so I guess I'll put it on craigslist.View attachment 45217View attachment 45218View attachment 45219View attachment 45220

Tempting,but I couldn't just race within my budget -
run one or two races,& then quit for the season.That's exactly
why i want to sell it - I don't need to go in "another direction",
& start collecting Volvos/parts,just work at finishing what's in
the garage.
Drew,did I answer that correctly?
