Who was looking for auto parts? Someone on 'Volvo Amazon' facebook group is breaking an early auto, located in Essex.

It was woodman ( Andy ) I believe with Magnus as he had his car stolen off his drive and they had damaged the Column

Kind regards

There are some bits I'm still struggling for, especially:
choke knob/rod
auto steering column cowl/selector display
dash vinyl pad (I can buy new but we're sailing close to the car's value on the insurance claim, and this is the biggest single part cost at the moment)

I'm surfing ebay for stuff, but I'm also in the market for wing mirrors and fog lights (I stress fog, not spot).

I know the auto column cowl is rare - I'd consider importing from overseas if needs be.

Many thanks,

Andy.

As mentioned above

Hello! Many thanks for spotting this, I'll have a look now - I didn't know there was a Facebook group!

The car is ALMOST fit to go back on the road but we're a few tiny bits and bobs missing. The biggest one is the column cowl (we could go back on the road without it, but while there are still a couple of other things to do it's worth trying to get that sorted too.

I knew someone had been looking, but couldn't remember who. Good luck Andy hope Magnus is back on the road soon. I don't know if you will manage to get any parts as there were some people interested in buying the car complete.
