"Good" probably meaning the usual cracks and fissures, but no holes all the way through?

If I found those at the u-pull I'd definitely buy a lottery ticket on the way home. You could spend dozens of hours looking and not find anything close. That car must have been driven about 3,000 miles a year and always parked in a dark garage.

It looks a little like an abandoned project. Probably has some other choice bits and pieces.

There are 2 P80's at the local PnP yards. One with black seats that look near perfect and the other with beige/oak similar to the pictures above. Problem is the cost of the seats and then pulling them and transporting them just to get the covers. Now if there was a 50% off week maybe I would reconsider..................!

There's a decent chance I'll be in that area soon and could get them. I can't store them and don't really need them, but some things are hard to pass up. Or does someone in the north east need them?

Geronimo could use the tailgate if it's free from rust, the front right fender if it's black, driver's side mirror, and probably a dozen other parts. But could I get a good deal on them.

How do we learn more about this car and get some good pictures? Not sure I can go two hours and 100 miles out of my way without some assurance that the parts are available and accessible.

I think I have a right front fender in 019 and I’m in parts shucking mode , as you know

I would certainly pay for the seats, worst case I can deskin and save the leather for reuse.

Damn! I want that oak console and dashbaord for cautlins car, too!

And steeerimgwheel ….


That’s a rare power passenger seat, too

I believe the tailgate has Cross Country lettering and I don’t remember it looking bad. As far as pricing, they have a posted price list. (Link below). You can search their inventory and such navigating from there. They do have a 2000 Silver V70 not in their accessible inventory yet that I took a peek at. It looked decent on the inside as well. No floor mats though. 😔
