Euro sources for dashpads? 120-130 1965

posted by  someone claiming to be Fredrik on  Thu Jan 10 23:32 CST 2002 [RELATED]


I can recommend Veteranprodukter AB (www.vp-autoparts.com, partly in English). They produce new dash pads for most Volvos, including the P120-130 and P1800, out of molded plastic. So what you'll end up with is not the original yellow foam with the black vinyl top, but rather one single piece. Real easy to apply, but you can't seem to get the same "spit shine" on it as you can with the original vinyl. They do not produce the under dash that the export cars to the U.S. and Canada were equiped with - much to the annoyance of people over on this side of the pond.

Veteranprodukter has a lot of other useful items aswell (including new seat interiors in most occuring colors), but their prices are on the steep side even for us Swedes. They have a parts catalogue in Excel-format to download off their webpage (also in English).

Other "Euro sources" I can recommend is Genuine Classic Parts, a company which now holds Volvo's spare part stock for all models up to the 240 (and is partly owned by Volvo). www.gcp.se is their URL and it is in English. They also have the complete spare parts catalogue on line for most models. Good complement to Veteranprodukter.

While we're on the topic, does anyone know where I can get the 673017 Knee Protection Pad ("under dash") part to my Volvo 121? Tried RPR and IPD without any luck.

Hope this is of any help.

Sincerely,


Fredrik Lofter
Stockholm, Sweden
