Parting out '98 V70 R AWD V70-XC70

I have a '98 V70 R AWD w/ 143K that has moderate front end damage. I was hit while it was parked. I was able to drive it about 15mph due to the alignment being so knocked out. I am confident the drivetrain is good.
It's been sitting for two years now....There's good surface rust on the brake system but the rear rotors and e-brake asm are brand new, and can most likely be used.

It's the standard silver color, I can provide pics soon. I had body work done on the passenger side front & rear door as I "bumped" a few of the retaining posts while driving it. The paint job is good, but not fantastic. The doors can certainly pass as looking non-damaged.

That's the deal with it. I'm keeping the wheels, as they are already on my '72 142s.

The rest is up for grabs.

The interior is about a 9 out of 10 given the mileage. It has the split Leather/Suede upholstery and all electronics in the front seats worked when parked, and I have no reason to think they don't work now. The seats are intact w/ SIPS undeployed. I would like to sell the interior (front, rear seats) as a set, but I'll break it up.

I have the rubber waffle style floor mats that go under the cloth "R" floor rugs.

Everything in the interior is great except the shifter knob---front button broke, but mechanism still works.

The steering wheel is worn, but the airbag is undeployed.

I know all the engine electricals (baro, amm, cpu's, relays, etc) are good. The ABS/TRACS module needs the solder repair to be done to work consistently.

All glass is good, rear taillights are great w/ the exception of a tiny chip out of the overhanging lense portion of the rear drivers upper assembly, but it's not chipped to where it seals, so nothing ever got into the assembly--I know because it was that way when i got the car.

Engine ran like a top, turbo was perfect. I can't tell you what the pressure was running on the system but I've owned enough turbo volvos to know when the turbo is good or not.

I know what the parts can cost, and I'm not looking to be greedy (esp. on the interior----I know to just re-upholster the seats is upwards of $600.)

I will help pull parts, but won't do it all by myself, because I just don't want to. The price will reflect this fact.

Email me your requests, but don't ask a ton of questions. I will not ship heavy parts, but am willing to drive 100mi to meet and/or deliver--I have a diesel VW rabbit pickup. I will provide pictures but may not get them to you super fast as the car is 15mi from where I live.

I'm taking offers on the parts. No BS, I don't have the time. Local people take priority, so the closer you are the better.

I will not sell the car as a whole. Sorry.

I have posted in the V70 forum as I feel the classifieds layout is clunky and just not that great. No offense....as the Brickboard is the best thing since Volvos.

    Jason, any chance that you'd want to build yourself another V70R? I ask because of this Craigslist ad from Cranston, RI: 1998 VOLVO V70 R - $1750
    Based on his advertisements, the seller is undoubtedly a massive tool. It's been up for a little while now. The asking price was $1500 until today (now $1750). I'm sure there's something terribly wrong with it, but perhaps you could rebuild it using the parts from yours? Just a thought.

    Good door panels V70-XC70

    Also post it on V70R.com

    A lot of S/V70s from 1998-2000 have door panels that have vinyl bubbling up. The R model does not do this and would make for a great replacement. I assume the interior is black.
