Old volvos are great, especially the 242s. The Swedes knew how to make cars for a while. Have you seen the old Volvo Amazons? Awesome cars, I had one years ago. https://www.volvoamazonpictures.se/car_photos/P130/1970/96/Volvo_P130_70_96_2798_1.jpg

We had a blue 240 DL estate when I was a child. I still remember the different controls on the heater glowing different colours on the way back from my Nan's house. Dad sold that car about 1997. I doubt it still exists though I would love to find it.

What kind of old Volvo are you trying to start? This is a nice project.

1989 740 GLE with 220,000 miles on it. Rare custom car with ABS and AC (options in 1989, came as standard in 1990). It was originally a Shell UK fleet car. We have had it since 1992. It failed it's MOT on structural rust and holes near the suspension in 2020.

I hope you can get the rust issues patched up and some fresh steel welded in. That'll be a very nice car all fixed up; it has less miles on it than my 1996 Toyota.
