A buddy of mine was at the one in flat rock today. They have a bunch of new volvos different from when they first opened last year. Several s70's, a few 850's and an s80. That many in one spot is unheard of in Michigan. I think they're getting them from out east.

I got a very nice set of charcoal seats front and back for my 850 for $110. When you checkout, always go to the guy that is missing a bunch of teeth. If he doesn't recognize something it's free or very cheap....and he doesn't recognize too much from what I gather.

The last time I was there I got.
2-ECC units.
1- full set of wagon seats
1-oem cd player
1-abs module

All for $140

That is correct. It had a very nice set of seats in it. That car was very well taken care of, it had tons of newer parts on it when they wrecked it. I wanted the roof racks but the security bits we had wouldn't fit.

There was a red 97 GLT there that had a fairly decent set of tan seats in it, I didn't take them because the leather was somewhat stiff from being exposed to the elements.
