Re: SPOTTED: '78 Mk1 343 in the USA

Glad to see the car has found a new home. Volvo never sold the car fuel injected. However at the time you could get it converted in Holland to fuel injection (remember seeing the kit at a friends place and at the DCN warehouse). I believe the company went belly up in the late 80's but occasionally I...

Volvo 343 under bonnet E-stickers MY 1978 CVT (Version 2!)

I have reproduced the informative sticker (1/modelyear) containing all the E-details of the major parts which are stuck on the inside of the bonnet for the MY78. This version differs from the one I advertised earlier as this sticker already distinguishes between CVT and non-CVT. Photogrphic records ...

Volvo 343 airfilter decals for 1977-1980

I have produced a decal with all the information which was screenprinted on the airfilter housings used between 1977 and 1980. When one restores the airfilter housing all this information is lost (date of production, positioning arrows). To be able to refinnish the airfilter housing with the correct...

Re: The Family! [we need your pictures!!]

I have a donor car (360GLT 1985), and this engine is in percfect condition, the milage is just o...

Re: Which stickers next?

Those are easy enough to reproduced but as they are accessories they"ll have to wait for now.

Which stickers next?

As you may have seen in the "On offer" section I am busy reproducing stickers and decals for the 300 series. I am now looking to start a new series but would like to find out from you which model (of sticker) from what year is most wanted. Suggestions are most welcomed. This is what is on offer now:...

Re: History of the Volvo 300 on the site

sure; L = no folding windows, DL did have them The fold out rear windows were only introduced on the DL with the launch of MY78 in Sept. 77 to make a greater difference between L and DL.

Re:

Sorry I need to say there are 4 versions of the car, not 3. As not to many early cars remain it is a mistake often made. Differences can be found in body, brake system, gearbox, interior and engine. ####### # Mk1 # ####### 19th February - presentation to the press 1976/03 - 343 DL released 1976/12 ...
