Hi and welcome to the forum! Your 340 stage rally car sounds interesting, keep us posted and it'd be good to see some pictures! Pete

Heres some pics, fully stripped out now, engine work is currently being done & the interior is being painted this evening.

hope they work!

Nice one! Looks like it could be an interesting project, The number plate is a little bit different too and possibly worth something! Pete

theres some more lightening to be done there - headlight washers, entire dash, fan system and probably a bit more

Post by **Volvobeliever** » 06 Dec 2004 01:28 pm

headlamp washers are out, all sound deadening is out, the dash is staying although what can be removed from under it is gone, not much more to be removed really.

surely the centre console and glovebox can go?

i'd imagine the window winder mechs might weigh a bit too?

door cards are completely gone, as is the glass, have perspex side windows for it with sliding openings, forgot to mention that! aluminium door cards are being made & door is completey empty. Much more lightening is very labour intensive, we havnt decided on the engine yet, but I know we have an S40 T4 unit sitting about doing nothing

might have some difficulty mounting that (i dunno).. stick a big turbo on a b230 like everyone else

440 Turbo lump....dead easy in a 340, and it HAS to be done...
