OK Guys, Your responses to my last post convinced me to keep it all Volvo. So now I'm developing a master list of items I'd like to find in a junk yard. With your help, perhaps I won't walk past some golden Sweedish junk opportunity. Remember, I'm working on a '64 PV 544 w/ b1800. My goals are to make it a reasonably dependable, reasonably safe car for driving around town. Here's the list so far. If you could make corrections and recommendations I'd sure appreciate it.:
- Front Disc Brake conversion parts- from 122 or p1800. I need rotors, calipers, backing plates, and the part that attaches caliper to suspension. Anything else? Will any later parts update caliper or rotors? Do I need the hubs too? I'm thinking of using a Willwood dual in-line master cylinder in the stock location.
- B20 engine- are they found in cars up to '75?
- 5 speed / overdrive trans- from p1800's right?
- Alternator- which ones...maybe from cars w/ B20's 0r...gasp! AC Delco?
- Electronic Ignition conversion- distributor & small black box from which cars and which years??
- Rear end- with discs & a taller ring & pinion. Which cars will fit?
- A newer, funcional wiper motor that's easy to retro-fit. Which cars & years?
- An electric radiator fan & shroud- probably a non-Volvo part. Any suggestions?
Anything else I'm missing? I certainly appreciate all your wisdom and suggestions! Thanks!
