Vancity Volvos

Man, I miss TB sausagefests the most of everything from the pre-covid times.

Me too. Almost never check this thread as I'm Volvo-less again, but good to see it's still active and you guys are still around. :wave:

also, as a lock-down thing my kid got me to try minecraft so I finally recognize Mark's avatar.

We should plan an outdoor, covid restriction-friendly get together!
Dr. Bonnie says ten people outdoors is cool now, right?
Whaddya all say?

Also. Pete... Nice work on the rust repair. Keep at it.
 
Meet up sounds good.
Maybe I can tie up the drivers side and get it back together.

How much of a sedan is the same as wagon?
 
went back to empire ... rain started...

was going to cut more metal out but figured I can just patch what I got.

Levion ... did you lose a Phillips driver?
 
Anybody looking for minty 7/9 series black leather front seats?

Or early v/s 40 grey leather?

Looking for 175 cdn for each pair.

PM me an email address and I will send pics.... of the seats
 
Hey just saw this thread after all that time! have an 88 244. Would like to join if there's a meet up. I'm newbie so would be great if i can get some inputs from local experts..
 
Damn, good job on getting after all that rust. At some point I'm gonna need to look into doing the Fridge... but it'll be a doozy cause the Fridge was in a fairly hard clang sometime in its past.




I wanna replace basically the whole drivers engine bay sheetmetal in front of the strut tower, plus take it to a frame shop and see if it's straight.

It would be smarter to start with a nicer shell, but it wouldn't be the Fridge then :)

If anyone is parting a 740 with a decent drivers front quarter, lemme know, I'll be there with an angle grinder and a stack of cutoff discs.

In need of either a repair guide for peeling door panel skins or a clean set of earlier model sets for a 740/940. Was thinking of just using 3M interior glue spray with clamps. But not quite sure how to remove what’s still stuck on there.
 
goof of should remove the old glue... or MEK (stinky stuff)

contact cement is most likely what was used. and would work well again.
 
Hey guys, just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. Recently picked up a 91 940 SE that I am working on for the time being, will eventually be my daily when we need a second car again.

Looking forward to seeing some of you around the Lower Mainland!
