Volvo 340 16v PROJECT. Need gone ASAP.
Posted: 16 Aug 2010 09:47 pm
Right, unfortunatley I need this gone as I'm moving house on friday and will no longer have space to store or finish the car.
I'm open to any reasonable offer at this point, as I really need it gone.
Only pic I really have ATM is the first on this page, it's the grey one on the stands.

I'm trying to sort out more pics to show the rust etc, but I only have a 10 year old POS camera that isn't compatible with windows 7
A basic overview of the car:
1990 340 1.7 GL (leccy windows, heated seats, sunroof, better brakes than the older ones) Car has remote central locking and alarm (serpistar).
68k, loads of history, logbook present in my name. No MOT and SORN, but have some old MOT's.
New EBC disks and pads on front (around 300 miles)
Monroe (stiff) Landy gas shocks on the rear, with 2" escort lowering blocks.
Front springs cut by 2 1/2 coils, front shocks re-filled with EP90 gear oil.
Currently no engine in, but comes with the old engine (running fine, just started the swap).
Also comes with (there's probably more, but off the top of my head)
Renault F7p from a good cond. R19 16v. This has been stripped, cleaned and the block painted in blue. As I was swapping sumps, I decided to replace the big-end shells, but the ones I ordered didn't turn up. Engine is currently apart and needs shells before assembly. Old shells are still here so you can see condition (not fecked, but a bit worn.)
Along with the F7p are:
New gaskets inc. head gasket and valve seals.
New head bolts.
New AP clutch
New cam belt
New alt. belt for a Renault spyder (correct belt for this engine w/o power steering)
Full loom and injectors, rail etc.
2 x F7p exhaust manifolds
2 x F7p inlet manifolds
1 x F7p downpipe
Straight through 2" bore silencer (new)
Head, good cond. with cam pulleys painetd gold.
All covers/dizzy, plugs, leads.
I'll also throw in:
A golf Gti front splitter.
Spare steering wheel and gearknob.
All the parts from the old engine inc. carb.
Set of furry dice
Whatever else I have forgotten.
Bad bits:
Needs to be put together.
No rad (I stole it for my 360)
A little rust on the front valance.
One patch on the rear sill/arch area. N/S.
little rust in same area O/S.
Overall, the car is tidy. Underside and strut tops etc. all solid and rust free. Viewing is welcome.
I'm only selling up as I am moving house and will no longer have space to store/finish the project. Will make a superb road car if you run it on injection or bike carbs, or of course you could strip, weld and skid.
This was my daily, and I planned to keep it as a tidy road car, it's never seen a track and looks to have been well looked after. Has been off the road since Xmas, sold it to a mate, bought it back.
I can arrange delivery at your cost through a freind, otherwise it will have to be trailered from Derby, v. close to the A38 and A52.
If I get a decent price this week then I will throw in some 13" Revos, some GLT wheels with rubber and a Carbon BMC airbox.
Please post on other forums if you feel there may be interest. Please PM me as I'm rarely on this forum. Cheers.
