1979 Volvo 240 Series 242 GT

Looks like this one has had a long life, with 511,000km on the clock! Paint is looking like a "patina" restoration :) - the seller claimes its one of 580 buitlt in the world, but we know that at least 600 of these cars came to Australia alone: Click here for information on the 242 GT: This example was offered on Lloyds auctions in September 2021. Given the tiredness of this example, I'd value it at $7,500.. It is a complete car though, and if no rust, could be brought up to a good condition after investing another $5-$10K AUD.. Good examples are selling now in the mid-teens..
