Here's mine (at my house now). I've been cleaning it all morning, got most of the moss and dirt off it, just some T-cutting to do and polishing now. I've also taken the sticker off the back window which I had put on to advertise my website, but plan to get a volvo300mania.com one on there at some point!

Nice looking example there mate. Was that on that auction website by any chance?

This was my grandparents, but they only use the V40 now (found the steering too heavy on this one).

I got the old sticker on eBay, £5 for a 1m one.

was that £5.00 for 1 x 1 metre website sticker ? I get the forum ones for £10.95 for 10 ( admitedly they are only 1/2 metre in length ) and sell them for £1.50 including postage and packing

Aah. Thought it looked a bit familiar that's all, cos there was one on the site we do not speak of the same colour as that and it had a CD player.

Alas, I don't have a CD player, just an old JVC radio/cassette from an old van as the Volvo stereo gave up. This goes on it's first big drive in years on Friday, hope to really give it a good run (although no doubt Dad will keep reminding me about the manual choke).

you should only use choke for the first 3 mins of journey ya know..

Finally I have sorted the pictures out and here are all of the 360 GLT's in my possession!
My daily 2.0 360 GLT F Reg 1989



My other red 1988 F Reg 360 GLT, not currently in use.


It's a GLT despite the grill, however the engine isn't original!

The F reg 1989 saloon, which I hope to one day find the time to start restoring, too good to be lost forever!

A rather damaged example, showing what they can stand up to, my parts car!

My Dad's special edition 1986 360 GLT, unfortunately unused and stood!

Sorry for taking up so much space. There you go Steve, finally got around to it!
Pete

Hi Pete ,great pics ,I think I said once before, we should have come to yours instead of going to Gaydon, love the amazon in the background and the shed cunningly disguised as a vw camper . maybe we should all come over one day and help finish stripping the ones that your not keeping (could do it as a mothers day present for your long suffering mum LOL)

Great collection of pics there Pete.. all nice GLTs! I've decided I really do like them in red, your TWO! look good there. Your daily drive looks almost clean as well!

Steve

Almost clean there Steve, auto flatter mode enabled! Thought it was about time I revealed them all! Well spotted Redline, the van shed is going soon, it's an old Commer Van.
Pete

god a commer,the only one I have seen of those b4 was the one corgi cars made with the camera man on the roof LOL .btw I like the rear headrests in your dads saloon as well what other bits has the ltd got that are different from normal

Oddly enough Mick, the Ltd Edition saloon has nothing really different to any later 360 GLT. It's the fact that it was one of the first new styled 360's, as a saloon, for the 60th anniversary I believe. Rear headrests were standard in the 360 GLT saloon. It doesn't have electric mirrors, air con, only the standard 360 stuff, oh and a recirculation button for the heater system, woooo!!
Pete

I remember you saying your dads needs a rear wheel bearing is there much work to do on the other saloon

Yeah I know

It's more about the fact his doesn't, and he hasn't had one since his old Volvo.
