Hi there gentlemen,

I have a question about a vendor.

Has anyone used this company, Classic Volvo Restoration?
https://classicvolvorestoration.com/about-us

Is there anyone signed for up for their newsletter and using this site for parts.
They list about every old RWD Volvo there is with some limitations of variety.
I’m curious to just how viable they are?

I interested into buying a few bearings and associated other parts, for my two M-47 manual transmissions and two other M-46 transmissions with overdrives.
One needs a front input bearing and the other one needs a “O” ring replacements in the overdrive.

I don’t see a phone number or their location listed anyplace in their web site but they do reference themselves as having warehouses in North America along with Europe and Sweden.

Their privacy statement is wide open, so I not only wonder about what this but quality of the bearings they are offering.
If you contact them by a land line you know there is really someone someplace.
Not a whole lot description giving in covering what is being offered.

I don’t want to give up too much information to be used, at will, anywhere later.
The internet is like playing shuffle board on a really long distance board.
I prefer to see something of the grid and the players on the other end.

Yeah, I've used them. I like them so far. I like how they give legitimate original part numbers and have hard to find items like relay hangers.

The site could be better organized, but I like them so far.

Hi Phil,

I can't comment on your supplier.

If you want bearings, I suggest starting here, for OEM quality:

Some after market bearings are rubbish.

Good luck, Bill

Hi Phil,
I have bought many, many parts from them. I ordered some brake shoes that would not fit the 444 read axle. They emailed me letting me know they would not work and credited back my credit card.
They do not take PayPal.
All of the parts I have purchased are of excellent quality.

Best

Hi

Well that sounds good right off the top.

Thanks for response so quickly and you putting in the phone numbers makes me feel a whole lot better.
