Nice work mate, welcome to the forum. That's a bargain for the money, any plans for it beyond what you've already done?

Sweet!
Many 360s in NZ?
And did you guys ever get 4 door sedans or the 3 door versions?
We only got 5 door GLTs...
Volvos rock!

theres quite a few but i only see about 1 or 2 a week usually
theres always at least 2 up at the local scrap yard lol
i have seen a few sedans and 1 3 door so im guessing we got all of them, most i see are 360 glts though
they are worth nothing over here aye, i have seen 2 sell for $50-100

cool car mate how did you get your photo's up want to post some of mine up aswell keep up the good work. and as for the spring you can put rear mr2 springs in the front but you have to cut them down drill tiny holes in the top and bottom cups then tie them in with wire so they dont fall out when you jack the car up and the springs you need are from the second shape version approx 91 onwards
