http://www.carrating.org/car.php?2614 some pictures there
so thats my first car, I bought it for about 130 euros
did a little bit of work and now i am driving whit it. i am thiking selling it because the diff is a very weak part, cant handle burnouts

has very little rust for a volvo in estonia

thats good!
but if there is possible to put 2.0 motor on with manual gearbox then i would not to like sell it, is it hard to do?is it worth doing?

hope you understand my english

2l conversion would be tricky, cos the 360s used a different layout. you could use a 1.7 quite easily thou, and perhaps even a 1.7 turbo from a 400series.

Oho, the trunk's door is coming from an older 340...

why do you think that?

Because it's clearly a '86 model, but we have here the old window with rounded corners...

I agree, its a later boot lid, you can tell because the pin strip strip does not continue round onto the boot lid, and also i suspect a couple of new front wings, as no pin stripe there to!

Notice pin stripe right down the side of the car, and take my work for it, its on the rear too...

Cheers

I suspect that to, no stripes and the colour is different. The colour of the bonnet is also different.

I like the sticker "1.4 VARIATOR", very funny!

I'm sure that your friend driving the BMW is jealous! lol
