Parts catalogue for early 300 series

OldBlueVolvo · Jan 13th, 2010, 13:07

Does anybody know how I can look up parts for the early 66/300 series i.e. pre-1985? Either a web-link or if anybody has pdf/excel files that would be great.

They were issued mainly on microfilm to the dealers , books did exist but very rare , dealers should still have the microfilms and reader somewhere although the parts themselves wont be available unless carried over to the end of the 300 in 1991 Any part in partucular you were looking for?

Thanks clan. I don't have a 340/360 but I have a few parts for these cars that I am going to advertise on here or 300mania (not ebay), hopefully soon. I can identify most of the parts but there's one that I can't confirm. Also it would be nice to know the applicable model years.
I can lookup most standard part numbers from PV series up to 2005, just not the 66/300 series.

Picture any unknown parts and you should get someone to identify it . Any 1980 343 parts let me know ?

Hi all,

It's mainly oil/vacuum/temp gauges that I have left over from some bulk buys a few years ago. I tend to hang on to 200/700/900 parts and sell everything else. When I have gone through the parts checking to see if there's anything obviously broken/missing I will list them on this forum in a single thread with pictures and part numbers. Some parts are new and some are slightly used (used for diagnosis or put on display in a dealer showroom). All are genuine though.

I'd also be interested in the above!

Could somebody with a knowledge of vacuum gauges have a look at the picture below? I will be selling two of these gauges, but, if you look at the connector in the centre of the gauge it appears to be blocked by some metal. If it is actually meant to be there I guess it could be a fine mesh filter. Otherwise, is it a manufacturing defect? If my car was a runner I would be able to test the gauges by connecting them to the manifold, but I can't.
