Introduction of a lurking luster of c303
Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2017 11:09 am
Hey All,
I think a quick introduction before I start with my question is the proper way. My name is Ben and I live in Western Massachusetts. A state that seems to attract c30x owners.
I'm a Volvo fan that think the designers hit it out of the park with the versatility and details of the c303. I get really tempted everytime that Long Island one comes up for sale. I'm currently working on getting a garage in workable order. Once that is set-up I will have a convenient place to work on it. I can also be able sneak it into the garage in the cover of night ,it will be months before anyone notices.
I have found the broad dimensions in the original specifications and I have seen the sheet metal patterns other provided but the excellent reference

but I'm looking for more details I see no dimensions of the drive train components or the frame. I thought with those I could create a CAD model of the vehicle while I prepare its garage.
Ideally I will lose interest before taking on the responsibility of the vehicle but if this fever lasts another year I will be in the market.
Thank you for putting this community together and if anyone has dimensions of anything c303 I would like to hear about it.
