Original ID20 chairs for the convertible are very hard to find, especially lately.
Fortunately, I have a complete set on stock with the front chairs side handle to fold the back forward, both left and right in the original brown leather version.
Also, I have the rear bench and back from the same donor ID (1965). The rear bench don’t fit in my 1970 ID20 convertible but the front chairs will fit nicely. I will get the car tomorrow out of the winter storage …erm, this will be done a little later,,, But- they will first be refurbished with black leather, The appointment is made for 2nd week of September. Will see when they are ready! Then, finally, I can take the temporary Volvo C70 chairs out. But only after all of the remaining issues are handled.
The issue list contains a full outside overhaul of the body, the coming fall and winter. Everything will be taken out and off- bumpers, mirrors, lights, windows et cetera. Then- sanding it down and making the body nice again.
Then, the inside will be done. A lot of work will be needed on the inside of the doors and on the side panels of the rear of the car. These panels are a combination of the donor panels from the Aui80 and some metal sheeting that I glued on these panels to fit the longer car. These need to become integrated side panels, and they need to be covered with black leather.
After that, a new paint job in racing red is foreseen for spring 2022.
Then, the car will be put together again and the new carpets, A-, B- pillar covers and so on for the interior will be put in.
And then, finally, the refurbished (old) front chairs will be put in where they belong!
