Volvo 123GT fix up, page 4

Back to the GT parts car.

That makes this a GT vent window. It is much faster and vents better than regular 122 windows...Honest !

Some Mothers got the chrome in great shape. This is the closest thing to Autosol that I have found in the US.

Found: Super Rare GT steering wheel

This is a super rare rosewood steering wheel that was custom made for the Swedish consul in Los Angeles when he ordered a 123GT in 1967. It was built by the Volvo development department in California. The car was stolen before it got delivered and the wheel ended up on the shelf. I bought it at an estate sale in Northern California from the consul's widow for $50.00

Will it look great on my GT..OR WHAT !!??

There...no more venting...unless I want it to vent. Looks good.

Huge progress...NOT...

Anyway, I replaced the sad looking seat belt receptor. one more thing.

Jan 2012 up date:

I had these 4.5 inch wagon wheels that was blasted, powder coated and shod with 165/15R Michelin XZX tires.

I don't know how some folks manage but both rear vent windows latches were broken.

 A nice set were rounded up and treated with the world famous double aught steel wool for best finish.

Shiny = good !

The goal was just to get this car drivable for the All Swedish meet in WA Feb 19th
I just threw an old cloth carpet in the front area for some comfort.

  If I do a real resto on this car I would obviously install the factory style rubber mat.
