New Wings For A 740 Gl Estate

tim030654 · Feb 21st, 2008, 08:21

I have decided to restore (rather than scrap) my white 1989 Volvo 740GL Estate (old style grille) with 203,000 miles on the clock. However, the front wings are showing some rust and will need replacing. Any suggestions where I can buy new wings, preferably in the North of England?

Hi,

You can see what is available at breakers like Salvo, Braydons or CP Motors.
May be worth keeping an eye on ebay to see if similar cars are being broken...

You can find out what price for the panels from Volvo, prepare to be stunned!

But I am sure that body shops will have sources for patent part panels that are not made by Volvo. Ask at a local body shop to get a price...
