Default Virgos for Sale

Here is another set of Virgos that are now surplus to requirements and up for grabs for £150 for the 5 wheels. One has a tyre but that's free, and I wouldn't use it!

Had these on my 760 but that has long gone now, more's the pity. Three of the rims are quite presentable and the others have a small amount of kerb rash. Have a look and give me a call. The rims are located at CV8 near Coventry, and I'm happy to assist with delivery locally, or indeed meet up.

Cheers Ric

The car may be gone but the engine isn't.

I will start building it soon with 13mm con rods, 9.8:1 compression, full rebuild and 10psi which should clear the 200hp mark to go in my 360. I still have a few bits left from it but nobody seemed to want much from it so the shell with all the suspension went to the scrappy.

Great stuff! Pity about the shell as it was solid. Regret selling it a little as there's not many 760 turbos around now. But at least the engine will live on. Don't forget to do a build on this if you haven't already done so. Ric

I would have kept it and converted it to manual, I even had a complete manual conversion lined up but the insurance was ridiculous and the lack of space meant the 360 or 760 had to go so the 760 was never going to win against my 360. I mean it's logical the completely solid already running turbo car lost out to the rotten in need of a turbo car lol.

Here is the thread http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=221502

Haven't updated it in ages bit the rear end is back together after a hell of a lot of rust was removed, the drivers side sill was welded on last night so it is just the front valence and the drivers front inner arch to repair.

Default Virgo Wheel Rims

Hi Carlsson 986,

I am interested in your Volvo / Virgo wheel rims, are they still available?

Could you supply me with the size of the wheel rim, and the Volvo part number please?

I look forward to hearing from you.
