Splizwarf posted:$1500 would be a better deal. For $2000 with over 250k on it I'd expect it to not go through oil like that. Losing oil at all is not normal for Volvos, they don't do it unless there's something lovely and interesting wrong with them. Tell us if that oil is getting burnt or leaving the engine via various seals. If it's just seals (and the interior is tits, climate control stuff works, it's got speakers, the tires aren't dry-rotted) and you can get it for $1500, good enough, seals are all reasonable to replace and inexpensive. If it's burning the oil I'd keep shopping; seals are fun but I don't want to play with ugly problems (hosed rings? blown-by turbo bearings? new valves?) on a car that I just paid money for. Expecially if you want a new car because you don't want to pay for your current one's parts addiction. Well, from what I know it's not burning it. There's no magic smoke at all, I think it's just losing it somewhere, I'll have to ask him to make sure though. Speakers are good, aftermarket ones, he's got a pretty nice stereo setup in it. Tires are great, as this thing has been driven recently and it's been well taken care of. As for passing inspection... Rural Arkansas. If it runs under it's own power, has headlights and taillights, and proper turn signals, it's road legal. We don't even -have- inspections here  Also, as an alternative...

Well, ok then, carry on. No smoke doesn't mean it's not burning oil, unfortunately. Drive it around a little and put a sheet of cardboard under it overnight: if it's going through a quart every gas fillup and it's not burning it, you'll find the leak real fast. It's probably visible as undropped drips on the bottom of the engine all the time if you stick your head under there. Wear some safety glasses. Follow the trail of oil upwards, wherever the highest point on the trail is is probably the leak location. If it's the rear main you're not going to have a whole lot of fun, but it is just work rather than $$$. What's the story on synthetic oil? It's important for the turbo's lifespan.

Splizwarf posted:No inspections? Well, ok then, carry on. Not sure about whether or not it's been running synthetic. I can probably ask him about that today when I head out that way. Right now it's either a tossup between that 740, or the VW I linked in my last post. Either way, I'm needing something a bit more reliable than a mid 90's Blazer, especially one that's been thrashed to hell offroad despite being my DD :P

Craigslist ads always end up about two inches too tall on my browser to screengrab the whole thing. I can fullscreen the page with no borders and see it all, but then it's too wide for SA tables so I have to edit it anyway.

The Bluesmobile was a 1974 Dodge Monaco, not a Coronet, and it's not even close to the correct year. Still, for a grand that's a pretty cool car.
