Getting rid of most of a '77 244, plus some other unwanted parts from under the house.
The 244 is in ok condition, minus the bonnet which is mine, though the main body section and rear doors have rust.
Parts of note:
-Early round light front with fog lights, the fogs themselves have cracked lenses and the drivers side headlight has a chip but other than that in good condition, plastic is all there with minimal uv damage. I'll chuck in the whole front clip for use as a round light conversion in return for a pair of late headlight mounts.
-Red Brown leather interior, needs a clean, front seats are good, backs have a small tear on passengers side, door cards and black hardware is good - $300 for the lot
-Dash top is cracked, other than that rest is complete and undamaged, not sure if the gauges work as i haven't run the car yet - $150 for all of it (cluster, main panel, original radio)
-GT wheels in reasonable condition, paint is scuffed but no major gutter rash, tires are shot
-Tail lights are complete and undamaged, fronts are also good but mismatched (one clear, one with the orange lower)
-Complete chrome trim in excellent condition
-Late (81+?) dash mats x2, 1 is excellent, 1 is ok - $10 each
-Pair of rear mud flaps, the original ones with the black on white volvo at the bottom - $40
-Steel sump guard, has venting holes at the front and a drip hole at the back, well used - $15
-Pile of switches, variety of styles and colours - $5 each
Also have a late (86+) bonnet, a few bits of steering rack stuff (brand new boots etc) and a chrome grill for early humped bonnet cars (81-85?)
If there's anything you want I haven't mentioned shoot me a message and I'll see what I have.
Car is in Sydney, on the northern beaches

Do you have any pictures of the interior?
are the tail lights cibies?
jamesinc
I'll take the fog light set up. I already have round fronts in my 77 244 but the fogs, grille and mounts plus any switches and wiring if you save it. How much?
perko
@Rob took this when i dragged it home, will probably give it a quick clean and take a couple more pics tomorrow, didn't look at the light brand, will do that in the morning as well
@jamesinc too easy, wiring looks to be all there, switches are in great condition, ill pull it out in the morning. ummm, say 80? not really sure what it's worth to be honest

Those seats look great, I've never seen early 240 leather seats that aren't in a brochure before!

The leather seats on the parts 84 GLE that I had were nice. Very comfy, but they had a few tears in them.
perko
Yeah these seats are super comfy, haven't sagged at all, unlike the passenger side of my wagon
@Rob, it has cibie lights, plastic is very good, no cracks or crazing, outer trim could do with a polish. The white plastic mounts that attach the light to the body have a bit of uv damage though
jamesinc
@perko works for me. Are you fine to hold onto it for a week or two? I'm still in Europe.

@perko if
@Rob doesn't scruff the tails, I'm putting my hand up :)
Rob
What do you need these for
@Tigabu ... Are you going to stick em on the red rocket with some tape to cover the holes and post me your big lights... \:D/
Seriously though.. yours if you want them, I don't need them just yet. Just looking out for some spares in case.
perko
yeah too easy @jamesinc, i'll put them aside for you
perko
updated with prices and a few more bits I found, will also take offers for the whole car if you want lots of bits
jamesinc
@perko where are you located?
jamesinc
@perko never mind, northern beaches. I'm north-side too! Can I come over on the weekend for that foglight setup?
perko
@jamesinc, sounds good, i'll pm ya
perko
Quick update, rear end, wheels and grille are gone.
I'm going to pull the last few things I want for my car off in the next couple of weeks then the whole thing is going for scrap so let me know if there's anything you want, prices can be very negotiable

Did the seats go to good home? Shame to scrap them....
I do want to make swivel chairs out of some Volvo leather seats!
perko
Front seats are going into my car for the moment, I will pull the rears out before it goes cause they are far too nice to scrap, might make a couch from them...
Ex850R
Good one!
I love the 740 horizontal strip like pattern leather ones for my project , in dark colour or red if that is possible , one day....
