66 122 - The car I shouldnt keep but like too much

That clock is just rad, great find by your lady friend. Also, what a difference on the door sill, I love the amount of detail you’re putting in.
 
Looks like it's almost ready for another run up the mountains, this time hopefully without losing an axle mount

Polishing aluminum back to its former shine is so satisfying. Nice progress, looks great.

my favorite drive around here.

today I installed a Bosch coil the right way. I still need to clean up the wiring. One of these days I need to take everything out and repaint in there

wired up a windshield washer pump, it even works. I polished the plastic a bit too

I got tired of it droning at 65-70 so I had a shop weld in a magnaflow - omg so much quieter now
looks like I need to tighten the rear swaybar link on driver side

Never seen these before, that's interesting. I doubt the regular gasket will have the right provisions for the swivel shaft (for lack of a better term). Have you checked in a parts catalog for an OEM part number ? You can send that P/N to VP and they'll match it up with what they have.

according to HIPer they are NLA
 
Rear door vent windows were only available on B16 Amazons.

The part numbers for the seals are 657925 & 657926 but they're NLA.

We must have spoken telepathically (either that or you spoke to my brother).

in rubber?


will also be adding the B16 dashboard extensions. I wonder if all this stuff stopped being offered because Volvo was trying to save money. I love the early stuff on these cars

It's what continues to draw me to Jensen built P1800's eventhough Jensen did a horrible job of assembling them. (sooooooo much lead....)

A friend claims he has the ability to reproduce rubber seals, I'll shoot him a text and will let you know what he says.
