I need a rear shock for my 95 960. The strut style. My usual recycle source only sells in pairs. Thank you.

Is your 960 a sedan or a wagon?

No problem to both of you, you guys are making it easy for me. I only need to find one car. Lol.

Don, does interior color matter? Or were there not options?

Mine is grey, but I am not too picky about color.

Unfortunately, none of the 960s (or any of the cars I saw today, for that matter) were wagons. Sorry guys.

Appreciate the effort. If you find anything down the road, let us know. I am in Florida.

Update to this post!
There are a bunch of cars in the yard near me, if anyone needs anything. Unfortunately for you 960 wagon guys, nothing for you yet. I'm keeping my eyes open though!

There is a green '93 240 Sedan, with tan interior. N/A, auto, northern car. Looks to be okay, but a lot of interior is gone. Power windows. Steelies.
There is a black on black cloth '90 sedan. Auto. NA. Front seats are very nice. Power window car.
White on tan '90 sedan. Auto, N/A, good condition. Honestly don't remember much about it because it wasn't what I was looking for.
Silver on blue '86 Wagon. Interior is awesome, but a little moldy. N/A, auto.
There's actually another silver on blue '86 wagon, in perfect condition inside. Front seats are gone (sorry guys I got 'em) but it's awesome and could supply many parts.
Also an '84 light blue on blue wagon. Everything looks okay. M46, N/A, good blue interior if a little dirty.
Black 91 940 Turbo, M46, no turbo manifold (again, sorry!) but most of the rest of the set up is there. Interior is pretty trashed as well. Appears to be a turbobricker's car.
Lastly a white 940 Turbo, no turbo, but everything else is good. Looks like it was slid into something. Tan interior, automatic.

Adding the rest of the Volvos on the lot in case anyone needs anything.

VOLVO 850 1997
VOLVO 850 1996
VOLVO C70 2001

I don't know if there is a difference between a 95 960 Wagon and a sedan , but I need a fuel filler door and the plastic mount that mounts on the body itself. Mine is maroon but color doesn't really matter. I can paint. I repaired the plastic mount on the filler door but now the body mount disintegrated.

The hinge is something like ten bucks from the dealer (I use tasca) don't lose the spring because that's real expensive. Because plastic gets brittle when it gets old you should get a new one. New one comes ready to rock with those rivet pins preplaced for you. Simply clip the new hinge onto the door, push it into the holes on the body and hold it there while you use pliers to push the rivet pins in.

Thanks for the heads up. I purchased the "part' through an Ebay shop. Seems those parts are universal and sought after. $5 including shipping. That's a deal. I now have a working fuel door as good as new.

Might need an automatic transmission shifter gear selector. Just the part that protrudes above the console floor and makes the gear changes. Mine is falling apart and now I can't get it to shift into park. What surprises me is that I can leave it in neutral, shut it down and remove the key.

Looking for that shifter piece as described above. Just the outer piece/shifter handle with the **** and release button. Let me know if you have it and its condition/cost. Thank you.

Are you in the U S?
