Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
The 360 in those pictures is smoke silver, someone else will have the code for you, it's a fairly common 300 colour. The colour coded bumpers were a 360 part over here, the material is slightly different on the painted parts, it is a smooth but hard plastic rather than soft like the grey ones. I'm sure you could get the effect if you can't get the original ones.
The wheels are called Canis.
Really like the Lada too, I didn't realise they were still making them until 2010!

Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
I was mistaken, production Lada 2107 stopped in 2012
"Production of rear-wheel classics of Lada 2107 was postponed from AvtoVAZ for the Izhevsk automobile works in May, 2011 in connection with start on AvtoVAZ of new cars. And here, a year later, it was declared the release termination; it is connected not by that the model is morally obsolete, and that Lada 2107 can't compete with new models of the Russian automotive industry any more."

Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
2.5 years of searches crowned success!
One fine sunny day I came on a habit on auto.ria.ua, to look what 340/360 sell.
The announcement of Volvo 340GL 1.7 sale in Redline complete set caught sight. But condition of the car … To the car end. Without wheels, there was only a body, the motor, a box, something on interior. Numbers Lithuanian. I thumb through photos and I see on a luggage compartment roof a spoiler is. I called the owner, I talked to him minutes 5 about the car. It still has a spoiler. I reserved it at once that would sell to nobody. On Saturday to me it I sent, and yesterday I took away it.
My pleasure wasn't a limit)) the Real, original Volvo spoiler will be now by my car! =)))
On weight it not heavy, is made of rubber (not solid, and it is sensitive soft). Yesterday I put to a luggage compartment — looks super! It will be established 100%
A few form is spoiled, but it at all didn't confuse me

Hi Mark.
I very long dreamed of it, then at our Ukrainian forum looked for - deficiency, people can't find. And here it was so lucky =)
The following item in my notebook - search or remark body kit creation as at GLT versions

Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
And again hello! From this week the final stage of work with a body went. On sunday departure home under the own steam is planned. I share with you photos =)
The last owner made the hatch, piled there a lot of hard putty and badly painted. It was necessary to clean everything very long
Left side panel...
Bottom...
Rear left fender, place where the bumper fastened

Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
4 months of separation from Volvo passed! Yesterday I drove the car to the city. Everything is good, with result is happy. It was necessary to expose a boot lid more exactly and it will be excellent!
The rear wing perfectly looks, a bumper painted with black structural paint. In the spring I will look for rims on R15 (rims from 400 series)
Some photo.
Alas, at car assembly, the master mixed an arrangement of the name of the car and model on a boot lid. But anything, and so it is pleasant to me
What tell?

Why put the tailgate badges on the other way around?

I don't think that it is catastrophic. As there will be an opportunity - I will return everything on the places.

Re: Volvo 340 DL Globetrotter '88
They look a bit low for the age of car too, have a look in the Technical Section, from memory their correct position is given in a blue leaflet, or maybe the bodywork green book. You'd have to look to find out which though!
