Default I am back. But probably not for long.

It has been a while since I have been on the forums.
I am on my 6th or 7th Volvo - 2002 XC70.
I bought the car from my mom's cousin in 2015 (little old lady that never even go close to the speed limit - you know the story). At the time it had less than 72K miles on it.
The car has lived in Ft. Worth, TX and, now, Huntsville, AL since I bought it and it has now just crept past 152K.
It has no collisions and pretty unreasonably minimal interior damage (the shift **** is worn out and the liner on the sun roof shade is gone).
For all the years I have had the Volvos I have enjoyed working on them, but I am at the point where I just don't enjoy lying on the cold garage floor and my back hates leaning over an engine.
In the past year I have replaced a couple of vacuum lines and, last month, replaced the front camshaft seal.
I fully expect that other things will start to show their age and I would love to find it a good home.
Any recommendations on how to find it a good home for a reasonable price (in addition to the classifieds on this forum)?
Cheers,
Parker
