On the Company
|
Veteranprodukter was founded in 1986. The idea was to have obsolete parts reproduced so the models PV, 120, 1800, 140 and 160 could be kept or restored to their original condition. To serve the North American market Veteranprodukter has expanded with a 3000 sqft warehouse in Charleston, SC, 2004. This company is named VP Autoparts Inc. In 2006 also Veteranprodukter changed name to VP Autoparts. We have also increased to two warehouses and one store in Sweden. Today we are more than 20 employees in Sweden and some in the USA. |
| We are located 80 km (50 miles) from the Volvo factory, which means that we are located right in the area were many of the old O.E.M. suppliers are too. This will secure you as a customer that the parts reproduced by us in many cases have the same quality as an original part built in to it. The Swedish tradition of producing parts for cars from the 50 -60 -70 -ies is continued and kept alive by VP Autoparts. |

In 1999 a major step was taken to increase production and warehouse
capacity when our 1350 m2 (15 000 sq.ft) building was purchased. Next to
Volvo we have one of the largest inventories of classic parts and we are
producing all the interiors, i.e. door panels, seat covers, headlinings,
carpet sets and many other parts in our own building. We are now 17
people working with manufacturing and parts distribution. |
|
We operate as a producer, wholesaler and retailer.
We sell parts worldwide. In Sweden directly to consumers. For most
countries in Europe we have distributors. If you are located outside
Europe, or in European countries where there are no classic Volvo
specialists, please contact us.
VP Autoparts is a Swedish supplier of spare parts for the classic
Swedish Volvo cars. We supply our own range of quality restoration parts
which are specified to meet original quality. We use materials according
to Volvo specifications.
Parts are being made exclusively for us or made by us. We have developed a wide range of rubber products such as weatherstripping, mats and gaskets. A broad range of sheet metal parts are made exclusively for us and we are the only supplier of bumpers for PV/Duett. Other examples are repair panels, hub caps, stainless steel trim mouldings. |
|
Among all the products we have brought to the market we are most proud of
our interiors. Those are all made by us at Fristad and made as accurate
as ever possible when it comes to textiles, vinyls, embossings and chrome
trim. We make carpet sets, door panels, seat covers and headlinings. We
have developed those products and we have tested them in cars, seat
covers has been put on seats to guarantee a perfect fit and appearance
in a classic Volvo. Since we have developed the processes for making
interiors our prices do well match a local upholstery shop – and it
will be like the original. |
|
Our suppliers are in many cases O.E.M. suppliers to Volvo or other
automotive companies. Remember that Volvo stands for Swedish quality and
so do our parts. |
