There is a classic Volvo boneyard in Ravenna Ohio which is a treasure trove of 50s, 60s and 70s Swedish steel. Half of the old beauties are stacked on top of newer 80s 240s - some 2 or 3 high... to keep the good older cars out of the snake-infested swampland that encroaches on the yard during the wet season.
I found great stuff there, but it was sad to see all those old beauties destined to rot in an Ohio farm field.
I know how you feel- I almost never love a new car the way I connect with the old ones.
Which Pull-a-Part did you go to in Atlanta? Buford Hwy? I always had great luck there- I found euro headlight plug connectors there which enabled euro conversion on my 85 300TD. Who knew!?!
