Unfortunately, the people who have the know-how to fix these cars typically don't have the time to do it or are not easily accessible by those who need such assistance. I would love to have a shop where all I did was restore Volvos to running condition, -knowing that I may be saving a life in a future accident.
It looks like they do sell complete vehicles, specifically the ones in good condition and the ones that don't need any major work:
Sold V70 '98 with minor/moderate rear end damage
Sold V70 '02 with no obvious damage
S60 '03 with only 91 miles on it, just wishing it was back on the showroom floor.
I agree, it's a shame to see the vehicles without accident damage being parted out. Right now, I'm working on restoring a 1989 780 Turbo that was hit from behind on the driver's side rear (above the bumper). It's got a lot more damage than this 780 that looks like they're going to part out: White 1990 Volvo 780 Bertone From the pictures, it looks like she only needs a fender dent pulled and a front air-dam.
On a somewhat humorous note, their facility is located in the city of Rancho Cordova, CA, at the corners of Recycle Road and Dismantle Court.
God bless,
Fitz Fitzgerald.
