Re: Presale of coolant hose 3210843
Tom,
I know that he is fully aware of what I am doing and he has been offered to participate at whole sale prices (but rejecting because of the margins).
You mustn't forget that until last year the 300 series was a "casualty of convenience" for him (like the parts for the "big" volvo's he is offering).
I wouldn't exactly call that 'expanding his V300 section" but I agree with you that in the present situation something is better than nothing.
Danny has't been really vollunteering any details to me of any upcoming projects (e.g. part numbers of items to be reproduced). If he informs me of anything it is more like "I'am looking at bulbs for the volvo" (just an example and not true)but not any particular details on which Ican alter my decisions so that no competition will occur. So I am not aware of him developing/reproducing actively for the 300 series.
As you may remember Tom, just looking at Danny's NOS stuff, from the list I sent you in 2009 (I believe), I also have well over 500 PN's in stock for the 1979-1991 V300's and many more for the early birds in a "private" stock.
I am considering placing these also on the website as well if I get one....

Re: Presale of coolant hose 3210843
Testing has gone well.
I am now accepting orders for delivery late February, early March.
Late 340's is relative speaking Foggy, some of the hoses can be used from 1982 onwards....
