Will this 1985 Volvo 240 run and drive after many years in a garage? Featuring the legendary Redblock B23A engine, this "Volvo Brick" is brought out for a mechanical revival and a satisfying carwash. Straight to the point rescue of a forgotten garage find—no talking, just the process of bringing a classic Volvo back to life.

132240 Kilometers ?? that's only 82,000 miles... this thing is still a baby. Well, an abandoned baby but this car could be a daily again.

Man I miss my Volvos. Had three 40 series (One 240, One 740, and one 940) and I wish I still had one of them. Best cars ever built and user friendly to work on yourself. I paid 275 for one of them and was my daily driver for over 6 years.

Volvo are so under appreciated
It's shocking too me

240s 700s 900s can be very reliable

Loving the large Euro Headlights as nature intended... Great color combo with blacked out trim ! Get some 5 spoke GT rims on that thing and you have yourself a WINNER!

Looks like my first Volvo. My oval originally came from California. Still had a California license plate. At first the ignition switch was very sticky. It was a donation car. While getting out of work from the car. I saw a family unicorn pull off and look at my car. I figured it was the man's family

I had one I revived when station in Ludwigsburg Germany. It was in a Army POV Lot, fixed the exhaust manifold, plugs, fixed the Bosch fuel injection system, ran it for 3 years. Super Family Sedan.

she still sounds beautiful, I love the engine sound of these cars, I also have a Volvo 240 from 1981. Love for these cars is great, Volvo from the Volvo 200 series are the best cars ever made.
