Breaking Green 480 Turbo

Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

Sorry ive not got the car apart yet guys ive been quite busy this weekend and probably will be this week.
Aim is to get the bumpers and shocks off this week. Try to store what body parts i can in the garden and then try to find some room for the interior in the house somewhere.

Yeah, the plastic slot/hold-the-sides-of-the-bumper-so-it-doesn't-look-like-you've-been-ram-raiding clips!

If you can get both sets off, I'll have 'em all! ;)

Exhaust has gone to Spree, hope he enjoys it.

Ill pack up the springs if you still want them and see how much it will cost to post.

Ill aim to get the rear bumper off this weekend and we'll see about those mounts.
