Thumbs up First Time Driver

Hi everyone my name is Darrell but I went with Gardenhands because Darrell was already taken. I just got a 1989 Volvo 740. I am stoked to see there is a forum like this. I hope to be active here.

Then you will probably hear from me if you ask questions.

Welcome to the forum. I will probably also be helping you when you are in a jam. But for now, all I will ask is if you have any pictures?

Thanks for the warm welcome. I do want to learn to maintain and repair my car but I am afraid that I will not be much assistance with troubleshooting at first at least. I am an airbrush artist and the trunk is really scratched up on the top. I may do a mural of some sorts. I am not sure. If I do I will post some pictures of that.

Here is the car. This is from the Craigslist add and I will get some better photos in the sun.

Your welcome. The car looks good, but it is hard to see the condition of the paint because of them being so blurry.

As for help, we can walk you through any of the issues you may come across and even give you a link to the parts you will need. As for the trunk, you could definitely handle fixing that being you are an air brush artist.
