Anybody interested in an 84 SVO???
Hey all while out on the job today I came across what I think is an 84 SVO. I'm not 100% about the year. I looked up SVO's of different years and found the 84 has the headlights set back as this one did. It is an SVO though. It has the rims, the double spoiler on the back hatch, the little scoop on the hood. It is maroon-ish in color. It just so happened the owners girlfriend was out in front of the house while I was there. She said it was for sale and that it has to go by the end of the month. I didn't get specifics on price yet because I couldn't hang out and wait for the boyfriend to show up(I was working). I told her I'd have to come back. I just wanted to know if anyone would be interested. Let me know if you are interested and I'll go back and get info. If know one is then I'll just let it go. Unfortunately I don't have the room for it.

1984 and "early" 1985 SVOs originally had recessed headlamps.
"late" 1985 (called '85½) and 1986 SVOs originally had flush headlamps. It is easy enough to change from one to the other, so don't go by that alone to figure the model year. Quickest and easiest way to figure that out is the model year designator (10th character) in the VIN. E = 1984 F = 1985 G = 1986 An '84 SVO VIN would end with EF and six numbers. An '85 SVO VIN would end with FF and six numbers. An '86 SVO VIN would end with GF and six numbers. An '85½ SVO VIN would end with a number of 230115 or higher. |
I've always wanted an SVO. I like em just as much as SSP's. They are truely underrated. Good find!

The maroonish color you described sounds like medium canyon red. I had an '84 SVO in that color with T-tops! Even the SVOOA said my car didn't exist. But it sure did! Here's a link to my brother and I's SVOs over the years.

Thank you for your efforts. I guess it comes down to I'd hate to see this car go to Pick your Part or end up being a side show doughnut queen out here on the Oakland streets. I have my hands tied because I don't have any room for another car. If someone was coming to pick it up I could probably get away with keeping it here for a week or so. |
