New member and new owner of 1963 Volvo 544
Hi everyone,
In the process of acquiring my father's 1963 Volvo 544, a car that was completely rebuilt by hand in the early 80s on his Volvo showroom's floor piece by piece. It's sat relatively unused in his garage for 30 years with only 10,000kms on the engine and every part is pretty much brand new. That being said, there's been some leaks from the transmission and wheel cylinders that need repair from all the sitting (supposedly the new transmission has always leaked so it may need some more work).
I'm joining to eventually have a community of Volvo lovers to join in Toronto, Ontario, or the surrounding areas and to learn of mechanics and parts I could purchase in the area or online. If there's anyone who can help, I'd appreciate it.
Nice to be here!
