Anyone heard of this Volvo fan as a substitute for the stock fan? The holes are supposed to line up. I recall hearing this but my memory isn't what it used to be.:confused:
 
Bob Schaller told me about it - in his 'More BS...' he simply refers to it as 'a Volvo six blade fan (which is no longer available except in jink yards)'. This was 32 years ago so that may give you some idea of the era of Volvo involved.

There are other options that are possibly easier to find. The fan from Macy's is one, a funny-looking BMW fan is another. I used 6-blade STC Tropical fans.
 
Bob also mentioned that some of the holes had to be redrilled to fit the Volvo fan to a TR3.
