Summary
This 1979 Volvo 242 Coupe shows 109k miles and features a rebuilt 2.1-liter inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual with overdrive. Originally pale blue, it was repainted a darker blue, though the quality of the paintwork is noted as lacking and rust is present in the floor and driver-side rocker panel. It comes with a clean Oregon title and extensive service records.
