Near Gothenburg in Sweden lives Karl, where I bought my C303. Together with his friend Anders, a former truck driver, he is casually dealing for some years with old C202 and C30x. He also sells portal axles to customers all over the world. From the dismantled axle donators some spare parts may eventually be in reach.
Karl communicates in englisch.
Dirk also lives near Gothenburg. On demand he will have a look to get the right car for someone serious interested. He is an enthusiatic driver, too, preferably in the forest. He is a real fan of the car and helps other owners with all his abilitys.
Dirk talks and writes in english and german, too.
Johan from Belgium near the German border actually has to offer a C303. The car from 1979 is restaurated with great effort and equipped with a roll cage and winches. It is not cheap, but you will get a donor car in addition.

The company TK-Styling from Hamburg-Schenefeld offers some different types of Volvo C30x on their page since end of 2005, some already with TuV (scroll down the page a little bit).

The company kvibergsoverskott sells and/or auction C303 and other military stuff. The direct link above to a frame may help all those who get lost on the main page.
