In about 2-3 months I will be handing the keys to my 244 project over to my son, as this was the plan from the start.
Coming from newer Volvos, this car took some getting used to, but it has 'grown on me', especially since I fixed the AC!. I am now searching in CA for another 200 series, but this time, a 245 for me.
I have a few questions:
Were manual tranny's offered in any year, and if so, might these be a bit harder to find than automatics?
(I am almost sure this answer is "no", but I'll ask)....Were any wagons offered with a turbo?
The converted AC works well on my 244, but would a wagon, due to all the glass & rear space, be a bit harder to cool inside on really hot days?
Thanks - I'm also open to any other advice as I begin my search...
