360 GLS - spares / repair

Post by foggyjames » 27 Jan 2009 01:54 am

I've been contacted by a chap in Essex who has a 360 GLS for sale for spares or repair.
It's a 3 door in metallic green with a black/tan interior. It's done 95k.
It has rotten sills and needs an exhaust.

It needs to be gone ASAP.

Anyone?

cheers

I'd hope so considering the condition and value of scrap metal now! :lol:

Arent 3dr GLS quite rare? if so could it be worth saving, not saying id be up for the job just that most 3dr 360's which have been up for sale lately have been going for a nice sum.

Scrap's back up to £80/tonne around these parts. I'd take it on if it was anything like local. We have a duty to save what NLA parts we can.

I heard two weeks ago it was around £20/ton, but who knows at the moment...like a yo-yo. I heard back in November it was supposed to be on the up.

I'm about to pick up two 360s for parts, plus maybe an 83 GLT...so I'm out.

GLSs are quite rare...and I guess 3drs are rarer than 5drs...but I don't think it's a museum piece just yet. Doesn't mean it's not a nice car, though :)

Yes, I think it's free...or very cheap.

cheers

Aye just been offered £60 for an engine-less cavalier. But I can't find the V5 so I may be stuck with it until the price really drops :roll:

That's the one, Jay.

If you book it an MOT, sure ;) What else do you want to know? He doesn't seem to have pics.

cheers
