The saga of the "Swag Wagon"

Yeah, nice work and good to see you were able to fix it so well.

I just re-read the whole thread and saw that it was the second front end hit it's taken.

Great to see the car still around.
 
Spent most of the weekend pulling the dash, replacing the blower motor / resistor. What a whore of a job, but nice to have that A/C back in action.

I pulled my parts stash and replaced all the air vents, trim panels and dash trim with either new parts of perfect used parts I have collected over the last few years. Installed 2 new defroster vent grilles I found( two needles in a haystack) and the new Volvo dash from Skandix.


With the perfect seats and carpet I scored from a member here, it looks very close to as new condition now. Just waiting on the new headliner to finish the inside.

I bought two nice visors from here and they are worlds better the the originals, but still just crappy to me.
I imagine that even new they weren't great. I may try to have some made with a sold core and cover in white vinyl.

New wheel, 219.00 for a 350MM Momo, way better than the OEM.

The saga is coming to an end, The Swag wagon is up for sale. After I list all the parts and upgrades, I will post here first and give my TB brothers first shot at it.
 
Time to post the Swag Wagon up for sale, I may list it here, but not sure on a price point AKA, how many thousand am I going to lose:)?

May do Bring a trailer auction but they are funny about reserves and don't want to take a chance on listing it without one. There is a certain dollar amount that I will not go below. I will simply rent a storage locker and put him to bed before I take a beating on it.
I will post some pictures I took today of the car now. Need to come up with a fair price or Just do the BAT auction. Any opinions?
