Hello 780 gang!

I have recently aquired a 91 780. I am enjoying it almost as much as my 93 940 turbo. I agree with the others that mechanical parts are easily and reasonably available. The body parts are available too...but are very expensive. I like the idea of having a parts car or two. If you find one, latch on to it and let the rest of us know.

The link Fitz put in his post is a good one but when I tried it, a page opened without the navigation frame. Try this one instead

There is an excellent page on buyer' tips that you definately want to read before buying your first. Unfortuantely, Eric is not keeping this site up. I do wish he would turn it over to someone else because this is a great site that I would hate to see disappear. Accordning to the site, 9,215 780's were built with 5695 coming to the US. I have seen other figures but they were actually lower.

I do need some help if anyone can. How can the wood trim be removed from the dash? Is it necessary to pull the dash? If so, how is that done? On most of these, the varnish on the wood trim is cracked and yellowed. I am refinishing the door trim and it looks great! The dash is the worst though. I appreciate any help you can give.

Blessings!
Patrick
