Re: Duchess The Volvo 340 CVT
hello all, a little update on the wing mirrors today.
14/05/2017
20170511_150846 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
decided to examine the electric wing mirrors, so started to dismantle the drivers side one, however this one was not in the best condition..
20170514_104901 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
mirror glass out
20170514_105039 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
removed the motor and found it broken
20170514_105103 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
as you can see the metal backing plate is very rusty
20170514_105108 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
my OCD would not allow this
20170514_105125 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
20170514_105127 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
did the same to the passenger mirror and discovered that the motor had been replaced at some point
20170514_110549 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
I am hoping the chap that sold me the wing mirror can find another drivers one, as it is buggered
In the mean time i will clean up the metal and rust encapsulation them

Re: Duchess The Volvo 340 CVT
Hello all a small update, It was my birthday a couple of days ago, so went to lincs to see my family.
21/05/2017
I decided while i had a few mins to spare to rejoin all the cut wires to the electric windows and mirrors
20170520_125022 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
20170520_125117 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
I think it went quite well?
also picked up her alloys from home
20170520_123821 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
What colours do you guys think they should go, thinking light colours?
Please post below with suggestions

Re: Duchess The Volvo 340 CVT
Hi mate.
New car you have there.
I also have a mac carb. When i saw yours, i thought you had nicked mine lol.
He did a brilliant job on mine. Your rad hoses will keep your rad in place so
you can get away without those little bracket thingys.
Cheers Mark.

Hello all, just a little update.
04/06/17
So today decided to have a play with the heated window switch to make the switch a mono switch (push to make) and added a timer relay so the heater element stays on for 10 mins.
20170604_212446 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
Then wrapped the whole look in tesla tape.

Re: Duchess The Volvo 340 CVT
Hello all, so quite a bit more has been done although it does not look like it...
12/06/2017
Only had half a day today so cracked on with the sound deadening
Roof insulated
2017-06-12 15.20.54 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
bulkhead and floor deadened
2017-06-12 18.49.07 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-12 18.51.11 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
and part of the boot done (I ran out of the deadening more is on the way)
2017-06-12 18.48.11 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
This took several hours to complete, so at the end of the day i thought i would offer up the alloys and see if they bolted down well and the hub cover still went on with the longer studs
They did
2017-06-12 18.55.15 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
13/06/2017
Today i got an early start and got all the bulkhead insulation glued back on, big jigsaw 2017-06-13 10.16.07 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
then moved on the the tunnel deadening and insulation
2017-06-13 10.47.17 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
Now this was done i refitted the steering column (need to replace the horn and stalk bracket
2017-06-13 12.46.01 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
replaced the wiper arm mechanism
2017-06-13 12.46.09 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-13 12.46.12 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
I then moved on to other things so added the black insert to the front bumper
2017-06-13 12.50.09 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-13 12.50.16 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
mocked up the rear bumper and marked 4 holes then had to wait for the drill....
2017-06-13 13.18.02 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
so again change of direction
cut the new foam for the heater box
2017-06-13 13.22.27 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
lined up the heater box
2017-06-13 13.38.22 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
fitted the fan resister (please tell me if i got the wires wrong?)
2017-06-13 14.05.30 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-13 14.05.33 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
buttoned it all up for now
2017-06-13 14.11.05 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
added the throttle cable
2017-06-13 14.20.45 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-13 14.20.53 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
then went to add the heater matrix... the heater box had to come off again ... my bad...
2017-06-13 14.52.13 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
also threw the wiring in to see what it looked like.
Now the drill became available i set about making holes in the rear bumper, I cut the locating plastic bung out and cut the 4 holes
2017-06-13 17.17.37 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
added the wires
2017-06-13 17.19.11 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
the parking sensors fitted in nicely and were not to deep for the channel behind the insert
2017-06-13 17.20.14 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
2017-06-13 17.47.03 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
fastened down the wires
2017-06-13 17.47.19 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
fixed the fuel lines
2017-06-13 18.11.11 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
added the floor insulation
2017-06-13 18.13.31 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
back on her wheels

and part of the boot done (I ran out of the deadening more is on the way)
2017-06-12 18.48.11 by Benjamin Charlton, on Flickr
This took several hours to complete, so at the end of the day i thought i would offer up the alloys and see if they bolted down well and the hub cover still went on with the longer studs
They did
