Wow nice car, I don't think I've ever seen a 360 saloon in that colour before. Must be rare :)

Not so sure on the summer wheels, I prefer the ones already on it ;)

It looks to be in very good condition so it would be great to look after it. I'm not used to that style of bumper (Zack360's red one is the same) being more of a late-model person. Is that a furry dice on the dashboard ;-?

Get a Haynes manual, it will tell you (almost) everything you want to know!

Or search the forum. You will need the manual anyway, the torque settings are very important.

The diff removal is fairly obvious bolts, but you just need the space to pull it off. You can drop the whole drive by releasing the rear mounts or drop the axle to gain the 2 or 3" needed to pull the diff off.
