I'd hate to do it, but I have the means of stripping this for what it's worth for spares for the 740.

It's red too, I like red. Don't suppose there's any chance the rear diff is a locker?

If it is seriously going to scrap bud, I'll take it off you. I can make back most of the money weighing in the shell.

^ Crime.

Im ringing Crimestoppers on you for such a suggestion.

Given what that car has had done, it's worth £500 (and more) all day long...and certainly not to be scrapped. Have you tried it on the VOC, Mac? This is a rather small audience!

Almost certainly not a locker.

cheers

James

I'd try ebay or main stream car sites before you scrap it, that should sell at £500 all day with T&T!

Hi guys,

Thanks for the offer Speedy - there's no chance of "just going to the scrap yard" - but if her fate is be broken "within the community" you get first dibs!.

No it's not a locker,

Yes Foggy its on the VOC forum - had a few " I'll take it off yer hands for £2.50 - that's all its worth types - I don't exactly need the money but I'm damned if I'll have the piss taken!

No I've haven't tried the bay - I want the old girl to go within the "volvo community" (at any price) - a good home is most important.


Oh, by the way - the new motah is "interesting" - now I've got two who talk back at me !!!

Mac.

Hi Mac.

I'd absolutely love this, but I need a car with a towbar. You wouldn't happen to have a bar in your parts stash would you? Or know where I could get one very soon?

Cheers,
John.

John, you have been PM'd

Mac

As luck would have it I have a towbar with twin electrics for a 7/900 going a-begging. £40 sound ok?

In a word, YEP. Are you free tomorrow afternoon?

Sorry, no, I'm at Chesh's Xmas gathering tomorrow and Sun.

However, I can take it with me and hand it to Foggy who will be back in Lincoln on sun afternoon, or give it to Nibbles who has to head back up tomorrow (sat) afternoon if that's any good.

The roof looks munted at the back. Probably not for sale "whole" by insurer's decree.

Are BOTH of you talking about This car, in the wrong thread?

Sorry bout that. Was being a posting cripple. I was of course referring to the scrappy 83ish GLS.
