Well, things got delayed with the previous interested party, and having three cars at a hotel didn't help. then the del sol started going through a litre of coolant every week...( water pump seal or pump its self going). So I made a push to get the leg running. Bought another carb from airport pyp and rebuilt one good one from 3. Eventually got to replacing the coil...bingo, we have fire! Tuned but not running great but manageable. Talked to Craig about window frames and thank-you to Craig as he built me a plastic template i ended up using as a window, so now one plastic and one cardboard...lol...
So anyhow, We took it on its maiden voyage to panarama! It made it with no issues. While there, I made a cold call to a guy who was selling a bunch of random tires, wheels, manuals and other stuff of which was a set of virgo rims for $150 bucks. Turns out he had a 240 that had been stolen and had some volvo parts lying around. We picked up a complete 2 binder set of green volvo manuals, a Bentley volvo manual, flame trap, tie rod and spare carb for $80.
Nice haul, nice trip...
LoL, Pat thinks i should enter the leg in street wheelers....
we'll see...
