Only got a reply off seller yesterday, so viewing wasn’t possible. So I’m waiting on extra close ups of the insides and around the car I asked for. I’m hoping the pictures show up at least a good hour before the auction ends. Front impact confirmed.

Tom beat me to this "spotted thread" :o I've asked about the one in Leighton last night, because the descriptions a bit vague trying to arrange a viewing, i'm still waiting for reply though. I'll keep you all posted. I'll be after this one if all seems to be in place. This should have PAS am i right...

Retrocool76 - I'm presuming it's water but it's coming from the hollow ahead of the spare wheel well......?? Are your rear clusters loose by any chance? If your boot seals are good and the problem is still there it will be the foam seal on the actual rear clusters, water finds it way past them due ...

SteveP - Were you thinking of a particular part that you want to change? Ie. the PAS system will be identical apart from the PAS fluid reservoir bracket. I was hoping a GLE would be a potential donor car for all other parts aswell as the PAS lot. Was hoping they would be a straight swap over etc. S...

Certainly explains the availability of Dinitrol being more costly than Waxoyl then. Must admit while using waxoyl i did find it sits on the suface rather than penetrate at room temp. But slight application of heat seems to do the trick though, which would mean Dinitrol would have been the ideal cons...

All good stuff! Hoping to do the same for mine where necessary very soon. I've had the chassis box sections waxoyled through out, the garage idiots have dented them by using them as jacking points! :evil: so only the arches and usual drainage areas will probably need this treatment. Saw "Dinitrol" m...

This is shocking news to me Mac! i was a more frequent user on the VOC forum before, where i was invited to join V3M quite recently by fellow V3M/VOC member, i would be lost if i this hadn't happened.

Hi John,

I'm in need of a 360 clutch if it fits the '84 GLT? and also the pair of speakers you've just listed. Would you consider ending the auction and send them my way?

Cheers,

Simon

360 GLT v GLE ANY DIFFERENCES?

Hi all, Hi SteveP - (360 GLT PAS conversion possible? - Volvo Community) Are there any differences engine wise between the 360 GLT and GLE model? Am i right in thinking they are exactly the same and all parts are interchangable? Mine is the 360 GLT, i've never seen a 360 GLE close up before :shock: ...
