Re: Duchess The Volvo 340 CVT

Lovely stuff.

Re: 50 shades of grey - '87 GLT

Well the back end rebuild continues. The axle is fully stripped thanks to Macs magic tool (and a MAPP torch) and the housings have been cleaned. The new bearings will go in over the weekend and ill get the hubs drilled for the new studs and press them in next week at work. http://i970.photobucket.co...

Re: 340 red vulva!!!!!

Ignore luke. 'Back to black' is shit and only briefly covers the problem. Get a hot air gun on the bumpers and theyll look good as new. Then you can treat them periodically to keep them fresh :D

Re: 50 shades of grey - '87 GLT

I thought about the foam blocks and doing similar but if i figure if i secure either end where it comes out the chassis rail then there shouldnt be enough movement to cause any wear. The filter is now at kinda of 45degs to what the original was. I mocked it all up with ...

The new fuel hoses are plumbed in. The new filter (aftermarket power max jobby) is a fair bit bigger th...
