The 140, 164, and 240 /260 up to 1978 all share the same part number for the trunk, 1203554 which was at some point updated to 1255079. The 164 parts catalog on GCP.se only lists the 1203554 part number so no special parts for a police vehicle. Also, I found no reference to special vehicles such as 'Police Specials' in the 164 parts catalogue; but, Volvo could have dropped support for those vehicles when they last updated the catalogue. Those vehicles usually have short lives.

If there was an aluminum boot lid I can find no reference to a distinct part number. I suppose it is possible that there was a run of aluminum boot lids (for some bizarre reason) and they ended up wit the same part number. If that is the case, without a model and VIN range to focus on that makes my search for an aluminum boot lid the equivalent of the blind pig rooting around for a truffle. Time to move on!
