WTB: Silver (426) hood, 98-00 S/V70

[McKennaR]

Good afternoon all and happy new year. I'm looking for a silver hood within 200 miles of 72758 (Northwest Arkansas). Mine is rattle canned from back when function was more important than form. Now I'm all grown up (allegedly) and feel that it lets the car down visually.

LKQ et. al are looking for $480 and I could just get the original repainted for that.

Passenger side front fender and rear deck lid for an S70 would also pique my interest, but aren't a top priority.

I posted this on SwedeSpeed and VolvoSpeed forums too, if this looks familiar. I've already called around in Kansas and Oklahoma to the popular yards and to Lamar Automotive in Pittsburg, KS. I am awaiting a call back from Volvos etc near Little Rock. So far from my efforts, I've sourced a d-side front fender, front and rear bumpers, and both driver's side doors. Just need the hood and maaaayyyyyybbbbbeeeeee the aforementioned fender and rear decklid.

I wish I had thought of this when I lived in the Northeast (Maine). Silver front clip parts seem to be a dime a dozen in New England these days. Too bad freight is a b*tch and I no longer have a business address with a loading dock, so the liftgate and residential delivery charges alone would make this cost prohibitive to have it shipped. I've tried.

Thanks

Ryan

I do have a silver hood from an s70 I had to salvage...
Unfortunately I'm currently in Illinois, I don't know if that helps or anything...
