Volvo R Sport parts - Page 3

Hi Guy's,

The forum server keeps coming up with connection interuption....constantly.... Sorry about the yellow Bilstein image, that's a load of pics I took of the Non R sport parts, i.e. roll bars, strut braces etc of which Pete has first shout.

We tried to get masses of images up this afternoon and the server (or whatever just would not allow us).

It's been manic here to be honest, with masses of questions from eBay regarding the Amazon, and emails form Germany and Denmark etc about the rare parts and documents/brochure's.

Hi Andrew,

Be glad to chat to you at length, I have a smidge of info here on the 1983 intercooler kit which was made available to the 240 Turbo guy's in the states.

I would warn now if we chatted tonight I would most likely bore you silly until way past the witching hour

When did you fancy a chat? I'm around most of this week, better half has taken some day's off so i'm trying not to book any work this week, although she tells me i'm shattering her peace.

I have also tried to be around in case anyone wants to view the 'Ammo'.

I'm glad it's of interest to you guy's, i used to almost dream about this stuff as a young Volvo nut, and believe me when I say this, i never, ever expected to have new parts sitting in boxes.

If you look at the last image on my first post ( post #1) you will see the Turbo Dizzy on the right against a regular Dizzy.

I also have a brand new R sport down pipe in my loft, and a used one which came off the car i broke. Boy Volvo made the original downpipes out of thick steel.

Hi Andrew,

Tomorrow evening is fine with me, I would have normally taken you up on your offer and had a chat now, but everyone has gone to bed and my loud dulcet tones would not go down to well .

They are normally late birds like myself, I very rarely go to bed before mid-night, in fact i may pop outside and Howl at the moon shortly.

I will text you my number tomorrow, I dare not pop it up here, I have a feeling it would spontaneously combust within minutes.

What car do you have? or what project? any ideas on which manuals etc I can dig out ready to bore you with Lol

I'm looking forward to pepping up my 940+ with help and advice (I hope) of, well anyone who can help me, i'm no grease monkey, i'm far better at talking about it.

So if I find someone here who would be willing to be a grease monkey on my + even better, for fiscal reward of course, any ideas of who's Da man?

Andrew! Please tell me you're still willing to sell me the 244T?

Can I just confirm first dibs on it? As soon as I can find suitable storage I'll be on the phone to you to come and buy the car.
