I'm working on a '72 142E that curretly has the automatic. So to make a serious trip machine out of it overdrive would be necessary.An M46 would be very nice and reliable. It's along way from finished.
I checked out hukebasart.nl, very interesting,I wonder if he takes international (US) orders and of course the cost of shipping would be the make or break for doing that.Not to mention wondering if something of that nature would make it to Holland and back in satisfactory condition, I know I could get it done stateside but the quality of the work would be at issue since the local machine shop folks never see this specific modification.
I liked how you leaned the P131 on it's side to work on the underside, very clever, and it looks like you took every peice of it apart, quite thorough indeed. I think I'll be working on the underside of the 142 on my back, no fun.
Are you able to get new restoration parts for vintage volvos in the Netherlands?
