B14 radiator hoses

[Alex Laidlaw]

Does anybody know if it is still possible to get radiator hoses (both upper and lower)?

I'm looking for new or VGC rubber ones to replace my rather dodgy looking hoses without spending a fortune and ending up with shiny blueness.

Nordic aren't able to source them and even my local auto factors who'll find a botch for anything couldn't help.

Have you tried Euro Car Parts or even Volvo themselves? See this thread for more info:

There are some part numbers there which should help with your search.

Cheers

I have got offers sitting on my desk for new moulds for 3209457, 3210843, 3207963 and 3207962.
But if you are telling me alternate sources still supply them I'll start with something else first after the kitty has a bit fuller after the doorhandle seals......I know Volvo no longer has these on the Continent.

Normally I'ld expect these somewhere next year...

What's 3209457 ?

Moulds for radiator hoses is good news ...

That is the hose going from the reservoir to the radiator (later sold as 3209437)

There's an '83 on lower hose on UK Ebay ATM:
