Yes, I know what you mean.
My friend, (who is using my 850 in Thailand while I'm away,) has just been on telling me mine just broke, so I'm keeping that bit to take with me next time. Sorry!

I guess it must be a weak pint on these then. Good luck.


Parts Gone:
Doors
springs
seats
...and some other bits.

Still available:
Engine
Auto box
Subframes
Panels
bumpers
...and loads of other shiz.
The straight, rot-free shell can go for re-shell/track project, it has good front/back screens in, but assume nothing else. It has VIN plates, V5, SORN, 'P' reg plates etc.
It's on a trolley, I can help with lifting it.
Or shout if you need a front cut, or rear quarter etc, to fix yours, I have cutting gear.

Just reading your thread, my brother in law lives in Chiangmai lol, and I've just sold my bx gti 16v.

Any how I am after a drivers wing in good condition a Volvo item, if you have one.

Hey, it's a small world!

The drivers side wing has a shallow (beer-mat-size) dent just behind the indicator...





As you can see, it hasn't creased the metal or broken the paint, is it worth fixing? You can have it for a fiver if you want to come for it (BD23). It's gonna be a pain to post it.

I'll get a better (and current) pic if you're interested.


On an aside, this happened to my Thai car last week:



Hit and run, while it was parked. GRRR!

I removed the (mint) passenger side wing from the red breaker, but it's way too big/fragile/heavy to send abroad, so it is still available.
My friend found a replacement wing in ChiangMai, and had it sprayed and fitted, so it's all good.

Where abouts are you now? As posting wings can be a problem, I'd rather collect if possible

BD23 as I said, Yorkshire Dales near Skipton, N. Yorks, perhaps not handy for you, but a nice ride out!
Do you know anyone around here who could fetch it?
