11 September 2005 I bought another 740 as partscar. This car was bought for it's complete beige leather interior. The interior is going to be used in the 1984 Volvo 760 for the period the car has to be used as a replacement for my daily driver (when it breaks down) to preserve the original pluche seats.


1985 volvo 740 frontal The following parts are taken of the car for private use:

  • Complete interior with leather seats (beige)
  • Headlights
  • Headlight whipers
  • Parkinglights + turnlights
  • Foglights
  • Electric antenna
  • Rear window

These parts are stored as spare or for sale:

  • Engine (B230E)
  • Gearbox (M46)
  • Complete wireloom for electric windows and mirrors
    Door and dashboard part, including wiring for the heated mirrors
  • Electric window mechanism for all doors.
  • Both fenders and all doors
  • Several gauges from the dash
  • All side windows

As of februari 5th 2006 the car is stripped clean. All we left in the car are the windshield, rear window and the small side rear windows, together with the tank. Everyting else that was bolted to the cassis is gone, together with the battery plate and the rear wheel arches. (pictures will follow). The car is going to be scrapped the 7th.

I've added a nice app to calculate all costs made for this car. Just folow the link.
