Looks like a nice project for a Volvo enthusiast.
But how in the world do you destroy a back seat like that I wonder.

Btw. a manual NA is quite peppy. The stick shift really wakes them up.

They won’t stay cheap if you let that secret out.

Cool, you wanna buy the one off my 940 for $2k? Then I won't mind paying for an egg crate!

I’m harvesting a egg crate of the 1998. How close toDurham are you?

2ish hours I think?

I need one for my 940... but I don't know if any egg crate fits the non-fog light front end on 9s. I think the '90 740 grille w/out fog lights was specific to that year. If not, I shouldn't have sold the one I had... those are super rare grilles.

1998 V70R $1000, deserves a new home. https://capecod.craigslist.org/cto/d/we ... 19455.html
5 miles from me, not my car, needs a new cluster, lots of other little stuff.

Post by **erikv11** » 18 Oct 2019, 13:57

May be the cluster is ok, but bad ignition switch. May be ...

Post by **bmdubya1198** » 18 Oct 2019, 19:56

Definitely a possibility, but at least clusters can be had for cheap. Someone should go save that one! Looks like a decent deal if someone can pick it up for like $800.

I have the black grill from the '90 740, non-fog light. Ex-neighbor had a 940 non-fog light. The 740 grille does fit the 940 but not a 960. Looks great on a black 940. He never came up with the cash and has moved. I still have it. It could use a new home.

It's an egg crate? Hmm... I'll have to make sure the '90 grille works on the non-fog light 940s. I think '90 was supposed to be a special year with minor differences from newer and older cars.
