Detailing an ABANDONED Volvo 850R Left In The Woods For Over 5 Years!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лис 2022
- This is a Volvo 850R getting its first wash in 5 years after being left in the woods abandoned. My good friend Pete at The Fix Autoworks in Doylestown PA wants to restore this classic Volvo Sports Sedan. The white paint is extremely oxidized and dirt has settled into every nook and crevice. After a thorough detail on location, we present the Volvo to Pete to work his wrench magic to get it back on the road. Enjoy the detail on this episode of Drive + Protect - L

Our team at the Fix is super stoked stoked that you brought this Swede back to life!! Thanks Larry! This car will be receiving a full engine refresh, new alcantara/leather seat skins and be added to our collection of great Volvos.
can't wait to see it fully completed!
Please please please start making some content around Volvos, anything, from simple servicing with pointers to engine rebuilds or builds, no pressure on what content to put out, just the odd bit here and there whether it’s on a newer p platform or 2/7/900 series. I’m watching this space.
@@The_Stronzo look around UA-cam a bit. There’s a huge amount of Volvo content.
Really awesome! I've owned 2 '86 740s with the 4 speed/electric overdrive. Then I had a 2006 S60R for a bit, the 850R is definitely a dream car!
Wish I had know about the guys at The Fix before we got rid of my wife’s S60. She misses that car so much. I also had an S60R that was a ton of fun. But not being a local search for Harrisburg you guys never showed up on my radar.
So much fun seeing 850R getting love. I wish you saw more white R in Sweden. That’s rare! Thank you Larry!
Normally im not a big fan of white cars, but i do have to say the 850 Estate in white is one of the few exeptions IMO, hell even the sedan is not bad in white. :D
Thanks for watching!
@@Lonewolf8012 the Integra Type R or the Accord Type-R look great in championship white too.
@@Lonewolf8012 just bought my t5 sedan, polar white! I’m so in love
Putting my 911 away today after a last ride. The way I clean it up after finding you is much different than when I bought it decades ago. Thanks Larry.
I've been applying your detailing techniques to my own 850R for years, it makes me so happy to see one of them finally get your treatment on this channel!
Same!
Those 850R's are one of the most beautiful car designs ever.
This is incredible. When I watched this video a week ago I thought I’d never be able to find an 850R again for a decent price. I was bummed. But then a polar white sedan like this one popped up near me on Wednesday and I bought yesterday for only $1600!
Edit: Canada, not US, automatic, and today I gave it a similar compound/polish treatment and boy does it shine for 384k km paint.
Congratulations. Same car costs 10.000€ in Europe (manual).
@@diegaulle9143 its so much paradox, that in europe it cost so much, compared to america.
Congrats! It is such a reliable car, unbelievable built quality and durability. I mean, 5 years in the woods and then when it comes to rust it needed some touch up paint for a scratch on the hood?! lol🤣
congrats, it'd be an absolute dream for me to own one of these, been looking for years but decent, manual, sedan versions are very hard to come by and very expensive in the UK.
That's awesome! I bought a pretty low mile white turbo sedan a few months ago for 1800
My mom had one of these when I was a kid, in white as well so this really brings me back. People are rude about these boxy volvos but I really like them.
One word: WOW! What a difference. This really makes me happy, the detail and job you do on the car is amazing! Thank you!!! Cant wait to see more Volvo's coming on your channel ;-).
The red car at 2:54 is a Volvo 740 Turbo by the way, super good video as always Larry!
Christmas came early. I have a black 850R.. I cried when I saw this. White 850Rs are more rare than black and red ones. 240hp wasn't nothing to sneeze at in 96 and 97.
So cool seeing this Volvo come back to life! Such a great job as always! Keep up the amazing work Larry!
I like these videos so much more than the super-car ones.
I am really shocked every time I see these cars running with just a few tweaks after years of sitting and suffering from the passage of time, not only are they extremely resistant to the weather, the guys really know what they are doing and they make them come back to life like magic, incredible
To be fair that era of Volvos is very easy to diagnose and work on ONCE you know what you’re doing, I got into it blind and it cost me far too much money and time to find out all the car needed was an inlet manifold gasket. They’re some very special bits of engineering, once you know what they need and how to work them, fixing them is very very easy, it’s all built extremely well and there’s usually lots of room to work in the engine bays, the one remarkable thing is that I’ve never ever ever known of a car that old as mine where the bolts and nuts come off with such ease, it’s almost as if they were built a week ago. Special bits of kit.
Thats so true. Watched a lot of vids about the thermostate housing, and how often the bolts are fucked up. I just thought let's see and took the 30 year old bolds out with such ease. Was kinda blown away. @@The_Stronzo
@@-R4- Those torx machine screws Volvo used for the thermostat housing are TYPICALLY messed up. They're hard to get to without the right (and it's cheap) tool, which means the teeth in the soft head are usually rounded off, and usually the long threads are galled in place. If they come out easily, it's amazing.
I finally started watching your videos today, and as a P2 V70R owner and all-round Volvo enthousiast I can only say this one made me very happy. I'll be watching a lot more! It'd be awesome to do some detailing on the side, complementing a data science job.
My cousin had a Volvo and I was never jealous of a car or wanted one like this after I sat in it. The best line of sight and the most comfortable front driver seat I've ever experienced and I've owned a lot of cars, but nothing came close to this.... Love these videos!!! Happy Thanksgiving Larry and crew, you're show is amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Nice to see a Volvo 740 in the beginning of the video dressed in a 850R front bumper 🥰
These " back to life" videos are the most satisfying. Thanks Larry.
Myself and my wife have an 850r in our collection ( olive green it's our pride and joy the very first car we bought together the first time she hit boost etc ) and can honestly say when I saw this video with Larry pop up, I clicked so fast knowing it's going to be done right by a guy who clearly loves his cars ( and a Volvo I believe ! ) It turned out great the white reminds me of the old unmarked T5's the UK's finest liked to rock up in, as always top work Larry great to see the old girl fire up and then clear them lungs on the open road !
Great video again and awesome transformation. 1 sidenote: at 2.54 you show a 940/960, not an 850.
"Small businesses like mine"
Larry,you are the undisputed YT King of detailing!
I gotta say I really enjoy all the late 80s-90s restorations. It’s such a nice feeling to see those cars come back to life. It almost takes us all back in time I’m sure many here feel the same way! Keep it up Larry 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Detailing is an art in itself and Ammo NYC is the Picasso of it.
As a swede I approve this very much. I miss my 850, superb riding comfort and the lovely 5 cylinder engine ❤️
@2:54 Oops, that’s a 740 with a modified 850R front spoiler. 😅 Great job with the detailing!
Love to see it! The 850 platform was the first car I ever modified! Had the predecessor 1995 T-5R for years, some really great memories. This video makes me want another. Excellent as always Larry.
I have a red 1997R for sale..
@@kingofjamrock talk to me bud!
you cannot kill a volvo even if you tried. absolute dream car in wagon form
Thanks, Larry! I know I've been buggin you about seeing you work on the 850R and boy, you didn't disappoint! I'm thankful for all your hard work. Keep on churning out fantastic work!
Drive and protect is my favorite segment
Volvos have such nice paint. I clay barred a white wagon of the same gen for my mom and it was stunning! They are just tanks all around.
Wish they'd used a different plastic inside. And for some of the engine connectors. And the speedometer gauge gear. And a different solder in the ABS module. But I agree, mostly tanks. Many times I've turned the key on one that's just been sitting and it has cranked right up.
That little clip at the end of the turbo gauge shooting up when you floor it made me miss my old 850 T5 estate (or wagon for those in the US).
The noise the 5cyl turbo used to make was awesome, particularly once remapped to almost 300bhp on an otherwise stock car! :D
These are really well built cars. I had a 94 850 that got about 250,000 miles before I decided to donate it. It was in the family like 9 years. Longest we ever kept a car.
I loved this! i myself own a p80 volvo and it was great seeing you work on one, although one small problem, she had no remorse for the starter :D
Nice another Volvo. And now one that I actually drive
As someone who owns three yellow 850R's and a single factory white one in poor condition I must say this was extremely nice to see.
The white ones are very rare here in Sweden. My white one cost almost twice as much in non-running condition as the the ones in almost perfect and running condition (but yellow) did. This vid gave me some motivation.
Gundalf, let's trade this white for one of your yellows!
You own a white 850R today in Sweden? I got a 855R 97 US spec 850R white that i need to take care off (in Sweden)
I think it looks better in yellow.
A yellow 850R? Now THAT'S rare!
I think you mean T-5R ;)
dumb question but why not paint with the factory color to white?
Watching that 850R getting all that love makes me happy. They should all be saved like this
Ridiculous as this is I've been waiting for this since I saw the outro in the other Volvo video. Props sticking to the game so long and having by far the best detailing channel around!
As a 850 T-5R owner this warms my heart, thank you
Turned that into a car anyone would be proud to drive and own. Great work.
What a big car, i love the white paint tho, and it looks like preserved pretty well after all. It's always awesome see a whole team restoring such amazing cars, and with an happy ending too!
Larry, I love how you take the same care from a super car to a normal daily driven car. You out do any other detail on any other platforms in my opinion. You forever have a lifetime customer/viewer!
Music was on point in this episode 🔥🥵
It is very nice to see two teams with similar work ethics diving together into a tight schedule project. It is very apparent that the 'The Fix' owner/manager is a very skilled professional, amazing.
Jan Lammers was a absolute BEAST in the Volvo!
Wonderful Video! Thank you sir for bringing such projects to life and to our devices. It’s not easy doing what gou do and filming the whole project and making it so enjoyable to watch. Thank you!
Hi, Not sure if this has ever been suggested for Ammo Product kits but it would be nice to have a kit for those of us that live in Condos and Apt that do not have access to water hoses. More like a post local car wash and maintenance kit. Include things like not water cleaning spray (for in between washes) towels, waxing etc.
email Larry, he will tell you exactly what you need out of his catalog
They have a solution already that I've been using for the past two years. Just go to their website and look for the Hoseless Wash Kit.
Hey we offer two hoseless wash kits with links right in the description for you. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the Pulp Fiction shot. It's the little things that make your videos even more fun. Thanks for all of your teaching Larry, keep these videos coming!
It’s just amazing what you can do for these abandoned cars. Kudos to all involved.
850R's and T5R's are some of the coolest Volvo's ever. Highly underrated too. Useless fact: the Australian Federal Police used T5R's as patrol cars for a short period. I still want an 850 wagon.....to convert into a ute!
Love the 850r.
Amusing how James may took one to Africa while on the old top gear.
Surprisingly the thin tires and the back axle didn’t break until right at the end
Please do more Volvo and Saab rescues!!! Great content, as always
Loved mine - it too had sat for a few years, bad fuel pump replaced along with a tune p got it running again but sadly, it had a bad sprag clutch which would burn the ATF so quickly. The 850R's are really quick! Nice job Larry!
As an owner of a 1998 Volvo S70 T5 5 Speed, this video excites me! So stoked you brought it back to life!
Excellent work Mr. Kosilla.
Thanks Larry... I had a 850t wagon in red back in the day and always loved this series of Volvo. Best wishes for the holidays!!!
That Volvo sounds beautiful! 😍and now looking as it sounds! 👏
Another accomplished mission for Larry and the AMMONYC crew! 🎊
Volvos. Lots and lots of Swedish Tank designs! Paradise!!!!!
That paint really sprung back to life. Great work.
Omg I've waited for this Volvo video for soooo long now, I'm so happy it's finally here, keep up the good work as always Larry :)
Nice job! I just realised I’ve been neglecting my yellow T-5R estate out in the yard. Now you guys gave me some inspiration!
Larry, another outstanding episode. Absolutely brilliant!!!
I bought detailing supplies so that I could make my car look nice. Cleaned everything and made the thing shine. For 1 day it was glorious, and then someone rammed my door and it is beyond repair :' )
My teacher has a red 850 T5R wagon making 320whp and it's the most fun thing to beat on.
What a transformation ! Great to see another Volvo live !
I had an 850 t5 wagon, one of my favorite road cars. Great build quality and love that you can still pick them up for great prices with an easy supply of replacement parts.
Thank you for doing this video! I remember the first Volvo video when you showed it sitting out back and I was stoked to get online and see it today! Awesome video, Happy Thanksgiving, belated of course... :)
As a Volvo guy, I was pumped for this one!
Larry I never get tired of watching you bring these cars back to life credit to you and your mates for helping each other out. keep the vids coming. Do you ship your products to Australia?
I had one of these - wonderful car, and great to watch Larry restore one.
850s in that shape are holy grail finds in europe 😭
What an epic car - huge Volvo fan here. These are getting so rare now. What a great recovery
TYSM for gigivn us the sources for everything!! so many channels on youtube dont bother with it, so I think it is amazing that you do. :D
I was hoping you’d get this one too! Great job Larry!
Love it Larry
Great nostalgic video.
Lots of love man!
Another awesome one. Video and sound quality are top-notch!
That P1800 es in the shop.... damn such a beauty
Larry, you have no idea the effect you have on your viewers. As I watched your techniques I implemented them to my details, and people always asked how I keep my car so clean and why it’s so easy to keep and maintain it in an hour or two weekly maintenance wash.
I’m now a small business owner myself, and you guessed it, detailing cars. Funny how the world works too, as I use AMMO products on clients cars, which is why I even have the business in the first place.
You can add dream maker to your resume. And I’m eternally grateful for that.
8:00 those impressions are spot on 😂
Nicely Done, I like the SLIGHT DRIFT around the Corner there and a CHIRP from that New Rubber. GREAT JOB Larry.
That is very awesome, my first car ever was an 85 240 sedan white like the one off to the side in the video. I wanted the 850 T5R so bad in 96 I think. I went to the dealer almost every week and literally stared at the bright yellow 850 in the show room. Never got one,but did end up getting myself a S70 sedan later in life. It was used but man did I love that car.
Great transformation!!!
Larry awesome restoration as always!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its nice to see you still have the R front bumper and R spoiler on your car 🙂 These parts always gets stolen here in sweden 😔
your narrations are always on point
Skills,off the hook !! Way to go Larry and gang !
Just got an 850R 3 days ago. Love it!
The 850R is an awesome car, it was my dream car back in the days. The wheels originally on this white Volvo are the 16” Turbo rims, and are also super cool. The later V70R had even cooler and super clean 5-spoke wheels.
13:58 idk why but that screw made me laugh
Very satisfying watch.
My 850 T5 would love to spend a day with you guys. ❤️
Beautiful transformation of a solid car!!
Amazing job it looks incredible. I had a 1995 T5 wagon here in the UK must be nearly a decade ago now hearing that engine on boost brings back memories I loved that car, mine was red but that white looks so good. Recognise that engine tone immediately. 5 cylinder turbocharged goodness!
That beast definitely has a light tune on it based off the boost gauge! I manual swapped my t5r and did Arron’s vast euro tune, car hauls butt but is needing a lot of work. Full suspension and mounts, bumper, interior dash and paint. It’s a yellow so you bet I’m keeping it
Those R:s are icons! Great job 👌
One of my dream cars. Having a car 95 percent of people don't even know exist is very appealing to me.
Would love to see more old Volvos like this. Great car!!
Excellent video. Reminded me of my old next-door neighbor (RIP) back in the day had leased a few Volvos including a purple 850 GLT and his wife had a red 940 Turbo. Then after turning-in the purple GLT he had that yellow 850 T-5R sedan complete with the five flat-spoke wheels and manual (!) gearbox, and I don’t think I’ve seen another like it since.
Nice video as usual, Larry. I love Volvo. I event went to work in Sweden because of them. And this otafemny looks nice. Well done!
Larry! Thanks for these great videos
Another great job! I have to admit I was a little distracted by that beautiful orange P1800 in the background, but nice to see you bring the 850R back to life!
the build qulity of the 850's was always amazing. and given it has not been touched in 5 years and was that easy to get going says a lot.
love the volvo content!
I’ve branded the era of this models styling (90’s soft edge boxy) the best.
May we meet again.
