Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

I think it has, it is going to someone who had the twin of this 360 also an SE stolen so he is going to get storage for it and finish the last jobs it needs doing.

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

So I've taken a deposit on my 360 so soon for the first time in 10 years I will be without a 360 :( Still I've got my 1997 940 turbo and 1986 760 turbo that will keep me occupied. Currently building my 940 to 300hp (Just need to sort out s bigger turbo and I'm there) as a sensible daily and I will b...

Is that how much those 13's are worth over there??
A set of 5 in original condition with a set of V caps that actually still have the V! I'd say so as where else are you going to find another set like it?

I've got two sets of wheels for sale, PM me on here if interested as I can't remember the password for the email in my signature so Microsoft have locked me out of it!

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

I will be taking some new photos next week and listing on ebay as an auction as there hasn't been much interest yet. I will probably put it back on the original wheels too.

Good luck with the sale! Looks great. Got plans to list it on eBay, etc? Environments like that (and classic auctions) seem to be where the buyers with big money are lurking.

cheers

James
Thanks James, I've stuck it on car and classic too where it has had over 100 views in less than a day.

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

I've decided to sell the 360, I have a 1986 760 turbo saloon that is crying out for a restoration.

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

I forgot to add the link so I've edited my previous post there is a 12mm option on that auction. Yep mine was the same when poking stuff up it, it would go so far up then just stop and I couldn't get anything through it, but petrol flows freely and an air blower up it didn't blow anything out so it ...

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

Right I'll try again... This is the one I bought, I should have just gone on to purchase history to start with! 12mm ID is what I got. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RUBBER-REINFORCED-FUEL-HOSE-PIPE-FOR-ENGINES-OIL-GAS-UNLEADED-FUEL-INJECTION-UK-/312675816144?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286 You probably ...

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

Hi Team. Question for Luke and Tony, mainly... I'm working on cleaning up a pretty gummed up tank / fuel pump / pipes situation on my 84 GLT. I have two questions relating to hoses: 1) I have the tank outlet as 11.25mm. 12mm hose will seal up OK to this, right? 2) Some sellers seem to list "12mm" h...

Re: Can't change gear

Car's been running OK, but the welded repair to the rear exhaust hanger broke, so limped home with piece of string holding the rear silencer up ;-0 Back to the blue 1.7 for a bit. sm16 :360: sm48 sm75 sm69 sm70 sm56 sm97 sm91 The 360 is trying to tell you that you don't need a rear silencer haha.

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

Great work, very interesting to see your process. Would this be the same type of tank as in my 360 GLT i.e saddles over the gearbox ? When up on the MOT ramp last week I noticed the original pre-filter on mine is showing silt/debris and needs changed. Makes me wonder what lurks beyond inside the ta...

Re: 1986 360 GLEi SE restoration and turboing

I finally got around to fixing the 360! Drained the tank using the old pump to suck it out in to a drain tray. I then used a gauze filter and filtered the petrol into a couple of Jerry cans. I removed the fuel level sender unit and found it was very crusty! So I sanded as much rust off as I could an...

Re: 2021 300 Goals ?

This is the filter you need https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fp%2F703737747 The original ones are NLA so you have to fit one of these, I'd get a metre of 12mm internal diameter fuel injection hose too to replace the hose from the tank to filter and to the pump.
