This 1991 Volvo 740 wagon was found on eBay<\/a> (affiliate link). The wagon’s factory engine and transmission was swapped with a 5.0 L V8 and AOD 4-speed automatic from a 1991 Lincoln Continental Mark VII LSC by Ross Converse in 2003. The owner estimates the engine has 130,000 miles and the chassis has 200,000 miles. Other upgrades include IPD sway bars, Bilstein HD shocks, Recaro seats, and Momo steering wheel while the hood, roof, and tailgate were repainted. Some issues with the wagon are faulty speedometer, AC system leak, and sunroof doesn’t open.<\/p>\n
