Update september 2004: Kleuren Bedradingsdiagrammen
Warren Townsend (Volvo 1800-120 Club Australia) had some time ago very carefully edited and coloured the electrical schematics of the 1800E and 1800ES models. They are available in PDF format and can therefore be enlarged or printed in sections as required.
During the revision of his Volvo 1800E Warren also noticed that the original wiring diagrams in the workshop manuals are not so easy to read, only black and white and pressed into A4 format. So he first draws the plan for his car. In the Volvo community his work met with great interest, he was asked to draw a schematic for a Volvo 1800ES. And that was the start of the project "All schematics of the models P1800, 1800S, 1800E and 1800ES, from 1969 to 1973".
A back-breaking work, to gather all schematics together, to sift them and then to create the different layouts in vector graphics! The names of the components are entered in the plan and do not need to be searched for in a separate table.
We would like to thank Warren, who provides the electricians with such clear circuit diagrams free of charge!
A tip: Print out the desired plan in A3 format and laminate it.
The history of the P1800 sports car
KENNETH COLLANDER, MATS WESTERMAN
Available since the end of December 2021, the history of the P1800 series. Three volumes in a neat box. However, only in Swedish, it is still undetermined whether there will be an English translation.
After several years of research consisting of travel, interviews and rummaging through archives, Kenneth Collander and Mats Westerman have completed their P1800 trilogy. It has grown to 4 kg.
The format of the books is 260 x 240 mm, a total of 704 pages and 2,100 images (selected from over 5,000).
The book is dedicated to all those who were involved in the development and production of the Volvo P1800 series, as well as to all enthusiasts who appreciate these cars, their heritage and history. It tells a story based on first-hand facts, second-hand information and other data carefully checked and compiled.

Eindelijk beschikbaar: 1800S nieuwe aluminium panelen voor het dashboard
Jarenlang hebben eigenaars van het model 1800S gezocht naar vervangers voor de aluminium panelen voor het dashboard. Nu biedt Mattias Dehlbom (S) de internationale Volvo-gemeenschap replica's aan met het speciale reliëf.
Toen Mattias tijdens de restauratie van zijn eigen 1800S geen geschikte vervangers kon vinden, besloot hij samen met een vriend zelf een kleine serieproductie op te zetten.
De panelen 3, 6 en 8 (op de tekening blauw ingekleurd) zijn als set verkrijgbaar voor 3.500 SEK (ca. 350 EUR), plus verzendkosten.
De foto boven toont paneel 6, de foto onder paneel 8. Boven (in het dashboard geplaatst) de reproductie, onder (los eronder gehouden) een origineel uit 1966.
De nieuwe panelen passen op links en rechts gestuurde auto's.
