I owned one of these tanks in the early 80s. Left the road in a snowstorm and rolled several times...still amazes me that not one piece of glass was damaged and after a bit of bodywork drove it for another 2 yrs before the frame rotted out. Great car...it could do 0 - 60 in 4 minutes flat 😊
I saved a Mercedes W123 6 years ago that had been sitting in a field for 9 years. The brakes were stuck of course just like in this video. I removed every wheel and fixed the stuck brakes first, then pulling the vehicle out of the field was no big deal anymore 😉
In 1986 I bought a 1971 142 for $250 for commuting to work in downtown Atlanta. Once I replaced that goofy SU carb with a Weber, my urban tank ran like a sewing machine, and in all the years since then, I've yet to own any vehicle with bucket seats that comfortable.
I use a product called 'bleeding wheels', this may have been a similar product used here. You spray it on, leave it for a couple mins untill the bleeding effect appears, then wash off. Fantastic stuff. 👌
En gammal kämpe och vad spännande att följa vad som kommer att hända med den för motorn gick ju runt👍 och bilen hade verkligen satt sig i vegitationen, var det ngn dom räddade folkan?
Japp verkligen börjat bli ett med skogen. Men motorn var stum så denna blir tyvärr reservdelsbil. Ja folkan är omhändertagen och snart på vägarna igen. Dock inte jag som äger den.
Watched this and really want to see more. Did you manage to get the engine running and if so did you record that process. Would love to see this car go through all the stages until it is finally put back on the road.
Sorry to bother you but What I understand the blue beetle is also rescued and on the way to be back on the road but unfortunately it’s not the same guy that saved the Volvo that owns the beetle.
I had a 1969 144 wagon nice car rebuilt the engine went good then it broke in half from rust, Then bought a 1971 Pontiac wagon with a 455 V8 nice car very fast and big but it got 19 MPG better than the Volvo

Bem parecido com o Ford corcel, 1 que era fabricado aqui no Brasil nos anos 70. Tinha a versão belina carro fantástico era a belina ford que era derivado do corcel 1.
Som skämtet säger har man bara lite ståltråd och gaffa tejp så kan man fixa hela bilen. Okej det är kanske inte så mycket sanning i det jag vet men gamla Volvo bilar har rykte om sig att vara robusta och motorerna är nästan outslitliga. Men synd att den Volvon stod och förföll så där.

I love this old 145.. Reliable and tough.. Real cars with no electronics. I hope you fix it up.. Thanks for the video.
I always liked these. Were once quite popular here in Canada, and even assembled here for awhile. The rust bug found them quite tasty...
Good job cleaning up this wagon. But it feels like only the beginning.
Lot of work ahead! Enjoy!
“A Volvo is for life-not just for Christmas”
Looks awesome! Im currently restoring a 68' 145s that I pulled from a field.
My daily driver is a '69 145. In my opinion the 140 Series are the best cars Volvo ever built.
Man pulls Volvo out of a field and gives it a wash should be the title, not really a transformation.
Exactly. To me, ‘transformation’ implies a complete restoration.
very good video
It breaks my heart to see old cool cars like this, once upon a time they were the newest of the new and ran like a dream. Good job restoring!
What a transformation! Hopefully you get it running and driving again!
Put fresh petrol in, polish, ready to go
i havent finished the video yet, but it would be great to have seen this running on the road with all the moss on it lmao
Awesome. Many thanks
Nice job ! 👍
Amazing!! Nice work!
Gratulation!!!
Beautiful Volvo ✨👌🥂
Looks like like my old 145, but mine ruates from the top down, and the cargo area windows had an opening section.
Så coolt! Det verkar finnas många unika gömmor i Sverige.
The Master. Respect.
Now you have to clean the area underneath and around the car 🙂
I love how every vehicle in the video is a volvo
super bra video:) mye arbeid med rust jobb
Glorious!
Hope you get it running again😊
Sista bra Volvon
Had one here in Australia,🇦🇺 twin Dellortos,bigger valve injected head,and injection cam shaft,went pretty hard
Bra video som vanligt!
Top video...the best for me

Bruh I wanna see that thing run an drive, washing it is the easy part

Nice videos man looking great
I love those. It looked like it was bleeding. I have never seen it before.

Its fly rust remover
This good piece will eat up a lot of repair sheet metal.
You've upgraded it to yard art status.
Skönt att se, gör ont i kroppen att se den stående sådär.
To think I was only a small kid when this car was made…
Cool
I only know a couple of Swedish words. I can use this one for your video and recovery: grattis!
Det var verkligen något att bita i! Ett tips till nästa tvätt är Vikingtvätt från Mackans Garage, då får du bort algerna och mossan på en gång 😁
Perfect.master
I hope water didn't find its way inside. When they sit like that, its guaranteed the floors are rusted out from the inside.
Snygg bil 🤩
These 145 were very reliable, good cars - with shitty awful carburettors.
Красава
Only some weight reduction, speedholes, ankle vents - it does need some doing up I guess. But definitely worth saving. Very little plastic on these.

What the heck is the purple stuff that is leaking out after being sprayed with cleaner?
Rust, its a chemical that dissolves the rust.
Watched this and really want to see more. Did you manage to get the engine running and if so did you record that process. Would love to see this car go through all the stages until it is finally put back on the road.
Ska du renovera denna Volvo?
Fix up the blue beetle too!

Really, give it a rest and sit it back out to where it can be wild and free.
då väntar vi på uppstart av den goa volvon, o ev lite rostjobb innan bes.

Very satisfying to watch. Thank you. What chemicals did you use please?
Thank you, I used www.gordetmedrw.se chemicals
Den har ju inga innerskärmar!
wow
Will you drive it? Or will you be satisfied with cleanliness?
Hoppas du får igång den här gamla kulturskatten!!
This car looks like the Ford Belina, I don't know if they just used another name to this car where I live.
99% rust free
save me good !!!
Yes it looks brand new and no rost... The engine goes like a clock...
Blir det mer videos om denna?? :)

No entiendo para que lavar un montón de chatarra que no arranca y con todo el coche oxidado.

No Merch??? I’d love a couple stickers for your channel. Wouldn’t take much through a supplier and you’d make a few extra dollars.
Thanks for the idea! I will look into that. :)
Engine?
Du använder väl inte rotorjet munstycket? Akta lacken 😉
A quoi bon laver cette Volvo, elle est juste bonne pour la casse direct ?

You should talk to your audience
Nice wash, but still a junk, the " heavy" work is yet to come, let' s see the final result!
🙂👍🙂
Where's part 2?
buenas noches estoy interesado en el escarabajo
Pero si tiene la chapa podrida... no esta restaurado realmente, esta muy oxidado y no lo han arreglado como dios manda.
