122 Parts Suppliers?

Post by BlackBart »

Hi all -

Just jumping in here to ask who people rely on for 122 parts these days, both maintenance and restoration. Ipd is sort of out of the vintage racing parts game (understandable). I keep reading horror stories about Vintage Performance Developments, with people never seeing their parts or their money. From the website it looks perfect - too bad.

There was a guy on here from OK(?) talking about his redesigned front cross member & suspension a while back - haven't seen anything new on that.

What do you know about Classic Volvo Restoration? I can't tell from the website where it even is. Here they show nice new red door panels...

Are there European suppliers for these cars?

Thanks!

The opposite. They are Sweden based with an online store and warehouse in the USA.
