I'm driving up to DC in a week and am looking for the headlight and hood trim for the 1980 245 I gave my daughter - before she rear-ended an suv.

The car's fixed, but with a newer hood and fender without the trim or holes for the trim.

The local yard has an 80 245, but the left front fender and parking light is damaged. I got the trim anyway - bent is better than nothing.

The area I'll be frequenting will be Bethesda and Annapolis, so anything between there would be fine, so long as they have some 240s.

Brandywine II in Clinton MD has Volvo's. MAke sure you talk price before you spend time pulling anything off. They wanted $135 for a LR 740 wagon taillight that I had to pull. They came down to $75, but I will talk price before I spend any time looking anymore.

HTH,

brandywine has a lot of yards. look in the phone book for the specific 1 you need. they break them up by make, etc.

up to dc? you coming in from va.? there's potential there, too. happy hunting, chuck.

Phone book? What an anachroism in the internet age, but an excellent idea.

Thanks for the tip, and yes, coming through ala, ga, sc, nc, va to md, but I haven't allocated the time for looking until I get to Md.

If you are coming up from the south, right off of rt95 there are a host of yards before you get to town. Banks( 800-572-5002), Skips (800-858-7547), M&M ( no # handy), All Foreign (703-691-9246) and a few more that I have forgot.
If you come up rt29 there is Leons ( no #) and Remington (800-259-1814). A lot of times if they do not have one, they can check the network and point you in the right direction. Good luck!
