Default 140 series

I have a lot of old 140 series bits and pieces...is anyone still building or re-building these 'true' Volvos? Does anyone need the pieces?

Default RE: 140 series

There is one part I can't find anywhere--it's for an automatic and it's the small plastic bushing that goes right behind that big nut on the shift lever.It looksabout the size of a golf ball--maybe a bit smaller.When it wears out the shift lever makes contact with the horn while shifting into reverse, and goes off. Every time I find one at a salvage yard it crumbles the minute I remove it.
Thanks

We are resurrecting a 1973 142! In the process of removing the wheels for brake hose replacement, the nut for the hubcap bolt broke free of the mud-metal cap that holds it in place....Need new cap! Do you have one? Also, what is the sequence for bleeding the brakes????May need other parts too. Once one begins fiddling with things they tend to need replacing!
Thanks

I have a 1968 Volvo 142 that's in serious need of a dashboard, voltage reg, generator,and weather-stripping. I can't find neither anywhere besides the voltage reg and some altenator coversions. Nor can I find floor pans and I really need front and rear. Have any lenses for a 68 such as tail lights?
Also know where I can find a good wiring diagram?

I'm looking for a title or vin plates off a 72 142E, if possible. I'm having a hard time titling mine due to some salvage yard messing up paperwork. It's being recognized as "crushed" when it is whole, and unharmed.

I'm looking to replace the pieces with the vin on it, and Wisconsin will re-inspect and issue a new title for the new vin if I can manage to find all the bits and pieces required.

I’m restoring a 69 142. Probably need a bunch of things.
