Default 1983 760 gle manual D24T low low miles

I previously mentioned buying this from LA. Seldom used by wife who died first and car sat in garage until husband died in 2018. 36k miles. Hasn't been registered for over 20yrs. Silver over burgundy leather, a single small crack in dash near the windscreen. Needs headliner, otherwise interior is 9.5/10 Rear parcel shelf has zero fading on fabric or speakers. High end stereo option with factory equalizer/amp/3 way speakers. Probate had a tow yard pick it up. It sat in the yard for 8mo where it got a couple minor bruises. Paint will buff out beautifully. Zero body work or repainting. Bruises mentioned are like a light door ding, and a few minor scratches. I changed out all fluids. Started up immediately and idled perfect. Drove it one mile to brake shop. Master cylinder had what looked like dry mud-same in brake lines. All lines were soaked overnight in brake clean, blown clean, new master and front pads-brakes are perfect. Drove it 450 miles on a HOT summer day running perfectly. Turbo makes good boost. Trans shifts like new. Ham handed tow guy broke the collar on the shifter. Comes with new knob,collar, and OD button. Dash gauge lights barely on. Have new rheostat. Fuel gauge inop. Suspect tow idiots went into tank to drain old fuel as reported and didn't plug in correctly.Cracked taillight lens from tow yard-have replacement. New rear shocks put on by tow yard replaced nivomat so it's too soft and low. Comes with new standard rear springs to match the new shocks and lift the rear back to stock height. Also comes with new front shocks. Heater works, but no AC. Ancient tires. Perfect light project for the right person. I am in it over $5500. Price is $5000 FIRM. Hope it goes to an enthusiast who knows how rare a 83 turbo diesel is. Similar ones in Europe are priced around E14,000 euros. Thanks for looking. If you need it shipped, I will work with your driver. Rescue this gem before it spends a winter outdoors at the Russian River in Norcal which gets lots of rain. Forestville 95436 10 miles from Santa Rosa, 1 hr 25min from SF. Reason for selling-67yrs old, and covid killed my job as a balloon pilot. I'm ok with a wrench, but not electrical and HVAC. Some tweakers stole most of my tools, and I can't replace them so I thought i'd find an affordable Volvo mechanic but I can no longer afford one.
