Hello all. I purchased a 1986 SVO this fall much to the chagrin of my better half. The car was nearly rust free but tired. I always thought they were neat and always wanted one. Little did I know exactly how difficult it is to find parts for them. I hope to get some help as I build this car. The rebuild won’t be nearly as expensive as my Pace Car if I want to stay married. The plan is a basic drivetrain overhaul, paint and interior work. Expected build timeline is 12 to 18 months.

The car is originally from Edmonton Alberta so it’s pretty local to my area. While the car is relatively rust free, it must have been used as a bumper car at some point in its life. Every panel has some damage (mostly easy to repair) with the exception of the front bumper.

Attached are a few pictures of the SVO. I do have the original wheels and tires but was trying my cobra wheels. Unfortunately they are too wide in the rear and will have to look for something else.
