Hello everyone

I've lurked for months and finally signed up a few weeks ago.

I have a 1989 740 Turbo with tan leather interior. I have grown extremely fond of this car and intend to keep it as long as possible.

What has happened is the PO (my step-grandfather) used hack mechanics to resolve what are to me now routine problems, window switches, blower motor etc. These baboons apparently tugged and pulled at any panel in the way of their ineffectual repair, breaking and tossing away the pieces. The door panels are okay, it's the hard plastic bits that are proving elusive.

I have searched the local yards to come up empty handed. The only real, somewhat local source of used parts rarely answers his phone or email. When he does favor me with a quote on a some small part, he mistakenly believes that I had asked for the solid gold version and he prices accordingly.

What I need is a lead to a source fed from a large revolving inventory, someone knowledegable about Volvos and fair in their pricing.

My 740 is almost there, it's those bits and pieces that are hanging me up.

Anyone here help me out? Thanks

 

So, where are you located?

 

Sorry, guess that's important. I've been importing parts so I never thought to include that information in my original post.

I'm in southern Saskatchewan. I don't mind paying to ship.
