Hi! I've been reading these boards for a couple of months, and they've been a real help so I thought I join up and say "thanks". :)

I'm the proud(?) owner of a 360 GLT which I bought as a cheap drifter. However, it has become my current road car because I'm enjoying bombing around in it so much.

It looks something like this:

I'll probably be on here a lot, asking many stupid questions because MOT time is getting worryingly close!

Hi welcome to the forum,

Are you going to use the car for drifting or are you going to keep it as a road car?

Thanks for the welcome!

classicswede- Once I've got another year of MOT on it, I'll be trying to set the car up to meet my needs a little better. I understand you're the man to talk to with regard to getting hold of suspension bits, so I'll be in touch. :)

SteveP- Thanks! Yes, this is the actual car. It only looks like an 80s promo shot because my digital camera is old and rubbish. Luckily, it's so blurry that the duct tape doesn't show too badly!

Yeh, I saw your projects thread on driftworks. Very impressive! :D

I don't have the time, money or skill to build anything fabulous. I'm planning on keeping it pretty simple to avoid missing track sessions due to the car being in a million pieces in my garage.
