See Homepage. This page: Volvo 133 scrapyard 'find'
While I was building up the blue Amazon (YKA 750J) I was working to a severely restricted personal cash flow (ie none) so prudence and canny haggling was the order of the day.

As luck would have it, not 3 miles away in Handforth, I acquired a 2nd Volvo 121 (133 type), this time a desperately rotten 2dr red example, registration HF? 410H, again for £50.

This was one rough old nail, but provided me with a mountain of spare parts, not least a spare engine, trim and many many mechanical spares, before going for scrap. That was way back in August 1991.

I've now written a buyers guide for the 120 Volvo range, so if you are interested in buying one, why not have a read here: Volvo 120 Buying Advice.

(PS This page is just one of hundreds of pages on www.oldclassicccar.co.uk, stuffed full with articles, photographs (including a free image archive!), visitors stories, memorabilia, postcards, advice and more, all dedicated to classic cars and their enthusiastic owners everywhere!!)
