Feel free to PM if you'd like... I'll toss you my email if that makes things easier.

I have it on my laptop... I’ll shoot you a PM in the morning.

Got the PM, thank you. Will grab that Monday or earlier if I end up awake at home over the weekend.

If anyone is interested my volvo mechanic Mark is selling a C70 project car in Dallas. It looks like the body panels are in perfect shape. https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/pts/6503299546.html

Big junkyard haul today... got myself a nice C70 leather steering wheel. I haven’t seen this one before, it’s a lot thicker than the standard black leather wheel I was using before. It feels much better!
My cousin got a set of jewel headlights and corners, a Super Sprint catback, a genuine Volvo strut brace and R engine covers. $150 for the lot... can’t beat it!

Nice steering wheel! Looks padded and comfy.

I worked on my drawer system, everything fits! The bottom drawer is dimensioned to fit my aluminium camping crates.
When not using the top drawer, the cabinet is hidden under the luggage cover.
I also made use of the triangular space behind the rear seats: 2 simple shelves for small items can be easily accessed by folding the rear seat forward.

When both drawers are fully extended, I can still open both floor hatches by leaning over from the side. This means I can always acces the spare tire and other items I keep in there without unloading.

It takes 10-15 min to install or de-install the entire drawer cabinet. It is fastened using 2 ratchet straps.

Now that it fits, I'll do some last adjustments before I paint it.

Nice job! Cool setup!
It’s very nicely padded. It has the perfect amount of give so it’s firm but comfortable.

Do you know if he's willing to part it out? I'd be interested in some of the bits and blobs off of it, local enough to make the trip.
