Re: White 340, solid car. Now £300

Yes its still here VND, I cant believe Im prepared to let it go this cheap! The way you're talking valman this could turn into a breaking thread but I just cant bear to do it, if this shell got cut up or crushed I dont think I could live with myself, you could ofcourse buy the car and take the seats...

Re: White 340, solid car. Now £300

I now have nowhere to keep this car and I dont want to leave it out neglected somewhere when it could be used by someone else who would apreciate it the way I did when I had it on the road. So, as said in the title £300 for a car with all the common suspension mods done, not to mension the lack of a...

Re: White 340 Mod thread!!!! Some photos

I didnt lacquer the paint. It still looks OK. Im not sure how the cars came out the factory but it was probably just finnished with the coloured paint.

The yellow tape is just there to hold the rubbing strip in place while the tiger seal was drying. Its quite a good finnish though.

Re: White 340 Mod thread!!!! Some photos

The Carplan white 18, If that was definatly the colour i used was quite a good match. I think the rubbing strip down the middle of the car helped though. The paint dried nicely and has a decent gloss. You get a lot for your money in the tins too.

It drives, stops and has a good body. I have striped it out and fitted Cobra Monaco S bucket seats and 4 point harnesses. It ...

How much torque can the 340 bellhousing take

Does anyone know how much torque this thing can handle?

How is it constructed and how could it be uprated?

Re: Midas kit car RWD project

Hi, I like the Idea of this. My mate's had a midas for maybe 4 years now. How did you get it on an M plate? was the front subframe off a 1974 mini?

My Volvo got on quite well with the Midas too

Alternitive brake calipers

Ok, I should have checked what the hole spacing is on the volvo calipers but in 2 years Ive never had them off, mainly becuase the bolts seem to be sized and I didnt want to snap them. Anyway here's some calipers I have with their dimmesions, its a bit like bingo...... Volkswagen/Seat not sure what ...
