Plugged into a search engine, and look what I found... http://www.type2.com/bartnik/volvo/volvomanual.htm Happy driving... From: "Sam" <sam@osheaven.net> Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 11:19 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Volvo Hysteria My current car is a 1974 Volvo 164E exotica. I bought it ten years ago and drove it for two years. When I was ready to get rid of it, a relative asked me if she could have it, so I gave it to her. Her boyfriend put it on blocks in a garage where he was going to renew it. They broke up and the car stayed there. A friend and I worked on it for a year and a half, and I'm driving it again. I feel like a young stud again. Sam S Mark Rabiner wrote: >I love all the attention I'm getting My 1992 silver Volvo station wagon >coast me 3 grand.
