Hi guys.
I'm 31 and own a repair shop in CA. We are in a small town and do more Ag vehicles (trucks, suv) repair than anything, but it pays the bills.
Just bought a 1990 Volvo 240. Pictures here https://goo.gl/photos/wVsEanLM2RC4Uo3S7
It has a blown head, but I'm going to keep it alive. Local machine shop says they can help so I should have this thing back up and running for under $1200 including the cost of repairs.
My mom had a couple Volvo's like this when I was a kid so it's just not about getting a sweet ride back on the road; there's some great nostalgia to boot.
Hope to get some help from you guys one day and can do the same in return. I own a shop, but I'm not a mechanic. I do my best and will try to do all the work on this one myself to educate myself on a classic.

Hello and welcome to the site! Congrats on your Volvo, it looks really nice. May it provide unlimited fun and unhampered travel across all terrains for as long as you two are together. Enjoy the time behind its wheel!
