I thought I added to this thread Monday?. Aside from being a newbee here, I have used all the vendors that are mentioned, except Mike at Susquehanna.... But coincidently, about an hour ago, I spoke to him for the first time and he's looking for some parts for me. Sounds like a nice guy. I have had good dealings with all of them.

Monday I thought I noted that I recently ordered some things from Skandix (they moved to Florida). There shelf supply is weak, but if you really want something they will order it from Europe. It just takes a while. I found that their parts (via web site pictures) look better than some of the others out there- quality. I'll let you know how that turns out. I also ran across another company in Germany (Bastuck.com) with a really nice catalogue. Again, it look like well made metal and a lot of things that are hard to find.

Bone Yards I've used:
AC Wheeler- Maine (I can't remember the town, but he'll turn up on a google search).

Those still on my list:
Joe @ Susquehanna Spares
Northern European in Seatle- most of the old stuff (for our cars) is gone.
and here are two other numbers I have maybe tried, but not purchased from:
Tulsa Oklahoma 800-447-2886
Boise Idaho 208-386-9133

I think I found these in ROLLING, the Volvo club magazine. That would be a good start for building this list.

If anyone can tell me a FEW, at least a couple recommendations for a B-18 head rebuild, I'm all ears.

THANKs
