Sedan taillight assemblies 200

Hi,
I meant my comment as a general one about the US 1986 model 240 body. They
changed enough things to me that I kinda consider it a body design change.
The rear trunk, the front sheet metal including thesheet metal between the
hood and the windshield. That was minor changes to most car companies but
when you keep a design for about 11 years before that it seems like a major change.

Think of this in relation to VW. When VW changed the Beetle from the 1967
look to the 'new' 1968 body it was a major change. Volvoand VW were similiar
in that they would keep a basic design and refine it over years of production. As compared to now with all the plastic they change the look every year or so.
Happy rolling!
