Default Not a musclecar but, looking for help to locate...

My neighbor is looking to get into the collector car scene but has limited funds. He has his eyes set on a Volvo 1800 (I know) but, he's having a real hard time finding a solid car in his price range (up to $10,000).
Do you guys have any ideas where he might look to find such a car? Any help would be appreciated.

My neighbors kid just got an 1800es (the wagon) for $3000.00 on ebay. It arrived in the dark last night so I haven't seen it. They stopped making the 1800 because the vehicles could not conform to US safety standards.
WARNING; Drive slow in driveway only.

There is a foreign repair shop next town over from me in Belmar. They had three of them there a few months ago with no plates, bet one could be bought for a reasonable price. Will try to take a drive by tomorrow or Monday depending on how many Bennys are infesting the area and get the name and number for the shop and pm it to you. A call can't hurt and it is not that terrible far from you.

That would be great; my neighbor works in the Lakewood area so he could stop by that shop and look at the cars in person. Thanks

I know where there is a red one sitting in Millville. I will stop by and see if it is for sale next time I am down there.

I was just wondering if you had a chance to get a look at those 1800's that you mentioned; my neighbor is very interested in any leads.
