1988 Volvo in need of help 200 1988

As a complete aside, you are a good dad -- putting your daughter in a Volvo. Even though my daughter did not really like it, and called it "the box," an '84 240 that I had her in at age 16, probably saved her serious injury, as she hit a deer squarely at 50 m.p.h. Totaled both the deer and the car, but she did fine. I replaced that dead '84 with a '91 which she drove for a few more years, until she replaced it with a Sebring (hey, I tried). Now, I have the '91 back, and am enjoying driving it. I have already bought a really good, though high milage '88 740 wagon for my 14 year old son. He is excited about doing the fix up on it for when he gets his license. And, I am glad that he will be starting in a Volvo. Volvo safety is not just a cliche!
