Rebuild update: it's all in the details
Tags: headrests overdrive rebuild switch
It's great to see everything coming together at last, and there are only a few outstanding issues/problems to be sorted, and one by one they're getting solved. if there are a few outstanding problems. Bit by bit, we're getting them sorted.
Thanks to a tip from Pete, I've found a pair of elusive late-model Amazon headrests at ClassicVolvo.com, (which I've been looking for for a while).
From the same place, I've got a set of 'good' rocker arms to replace the ones on my B18, which had lost their hardened surface -- hopefully they'll be OK given how long I've been looking for them.
Have also tied down a few of the cosmetic details. The overdrive indicator light is going above the switches to the right of the steering wheel and the heated rear window is going to be operated by a second 'map-light' pull-switch, in the same position but opposite side of the dash to the main one (with an indicator light matching that for the overdrive).
Meanwhile, Lance and Mark have worked more of their wonders on the little details, as you can see from the pics.
