Hi and welcome to the forum,

I reckon that someone on here will want it

The 3 doors are getting rare!

Whats the rust situation like "ontop" of the bodywork? Any extras such as ambient temperature guages/econ meter?

Post by **cyclops** » 05 Feb 2005 05:17 pm

A few minor rust marks are starting to appear, but basically ok. There are no 'extras'.

As Steve says, welcome, and I think you may well find a taker for a 3dr - even if not here. Have you thought about ebay?

cheers

James

if it were a mk2 i would snap it up, but unfotunatly it appears to be a model-year too late..

If the Mk2 has PAS, then no, it's the model with DIY steering.

Post by **5lab** » 06 Feb 2005 02:59 pm

a mk2 has a different front end - the side repeater indicators are not part of the bumpers, and there is a different rear light cluster/rear windscreen. yours is actually a mk3... pas was an option on all 360s (i think, maybe not with mk2s) but it was expensive so not many people had it until it became standard in ~88

I bow to your knowledge. Should have looked at my Haynes Manual which will go with the car.

Post by **5lab** » 06 Feb 2005 03:34 pm

don't know if it would actually tell you in there..

some C-reg cars are mk2, some are mk3. i simply prefer the looks of the mk2 - there weren't actually any techinical differences at all afaik.

if you do decide to break it, there may be a few people after the electric windows/central locking gubbins, as these were both rare parts on 3-door 300s

Give it chance

There are certain people on here that I'm sure would be interested. Carl? He was after a 360 recently.. and is local to where your car is

A month or 2 earlier and I'd have snapped it up, but I've started gathering bits for my other project, so no can do I'm afraid. If I had a bigger drive then i'd probably have it anyway, but theres already 6 cars on there!

Good luck with selling it

Post by **cyclops** » 15 Feb 2005 03:58 pm

I would have been happy to give it away to anyone that wan't it, but if there are no takers by the 21st of the month, it will go for scrap.

Post by **foggyjames** » 15 Feb 2005 04:12 pm

Pop it on eBay for £1 - someone will buy it - you might well get a fair bit more. That's better than it going for scrap - 3dr GLTs are too rare to scrap

cheers
