VAVolvo Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 I'm down in the Outer Banks of NC with my sister and she plays professional cello. As she went to a rehersal yesterday for a couple of hours, she gave my her Jeep and I drove around for a while (and yes, I did go on the beach with it ), and I see this Volvo for sale off the side of the road. I pull over and get the information:A '81 242 Turbo for $495.He said it runs in good condition but there is a lot of rust on the front and rear of the car, looks like a bit of bondo here and there, and it will definitly need a new paint job. Don't know how many miles.What do you think I should do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 I passed up a rough condition 242 GT (turbo) a while back. Silver with red/black stripes. It was in rough shape, but ran - $500 bucks. I kick myself for that frequently. BUY IT MAN!!!!-Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jross Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Are you sure it's +T? I could have sworn Bertones were NA, so unless he did a +t to a Bertone... If it's legit, hook that stuff up! If it's not, talk him down on price, buy it, and build your own Berturbo (go check out T-bricks if you don't get what I'm saying) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jross Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 but it←Go check out T-bricks. IIRC, the Bertones came with a V6, not a turbo. There's a guy that did a turbo swap, to create the BerTurbo.. badass motherf*er, that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Bertones have a chop-top look to them. Vinyl covering over the roof... Easy to spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
