Stripped 2door 340 shell + Renault f16ie engine and loom

After spending months gathering parts and planning my project i now sadly have to sell up due to moving house .

IT started as a 2door 1.4 340 which i drove around for 5 months until the head gasket went.
it is blue in colour with very decent bodywork. it does have a small amount of bubblng on the edge of 1 or 2 of the arches, but nothing that couldnt be easily remedied. also has one dent of passenger arch that was caused by my mates knee - could easily be pulled out with no paint damage.
the paintwork has been well looked after and could easily be brought back to a good deep shine.
car has been fitted with 360 headlights - were in nicer nick than the origionals. also fitted with a 360 front bumper which has been sprayed black (could do with another coat)

car was bought to turn into a stripped out drifter, steering is absolutely spot on, dead straight and very responsive.


after that the car was taken up to my mates farm and stripped ready for a 16v conversion.
custom front springs and polybushes (bought from classicswede on here) hae been fitted to the front, and 2 inch lowering blocks hae been fitted to the rear.

the back seats and parcel shelf have been skipped, but most of the rear interior plastic remains in tact.

car comes with a f16ie, loom , cracked gearbox and diff cannot guarantee this engine as i have not had time to check it out - came from a reliable source though.

also 4 standard volvo wheels with good tyres, and 4 mk1 golf pirelli p-slot alloys, which fit the volvo hubs and look pretty cool!

car is on sorn just now and is a rolling shell (engine removed)


i would rather see this car go to someone who could make us of it rather than go to the scrappies, but i am in desperate need of the cash .. . . . .
looking for 250 quid ono

car located in Philpstoun, near Linlithgow West Lothian

Hmm you're only 150 miles from me. Shame my trailer's plotting to kill me, and my tow car's in many pieces. All the same, if you still have it on the 25th I might take it. (This would depend on the lend of a towcar and a bit of trailer welding.)
Last time I scrapped a 340 I only got £80, but an all-alloy engine will probably fetch a fair bit.
