I have no proof of this, but after careful comparison of prices and part numbers at VLVWorld, SwedishTreasure, VP-Autoparts, and a couple others, I'm fairly sure that they get their parts from Genuine Classic Parts (GCP.se). According to an back-issue of "Rolling" that I have, GCP took over the vintage parts from "Volvo" when they stopped producing spares for the classic models. As the article explained, you woudl still be able to order *anything* you needed from GCP through your local dealer. So Belinda is probably correct in what you can get.
As I've said, I have no proof, but the parts look identical and the prices are so close I strongly suspect that all the parts come from the same place.
I came to this opinion after putting together a price spreadsheet for ordering pieces for my 67 220 and finding that VP was the same as every other supplier on the "rare" stuff (generally dealer-only type parts).
I could be wrong, but I don't think it matter who you order from as long as you get a decent price and they still do business with you.
