Volvo 850 Restoration - Dashboard Removal & Aftermarket Junk
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- We decided to remove the dashboard on our Volvo 850 project car so that we would have plenty of room to get rid of all the aftermarket junk that was installed. We also managed to get a new dash which might be in a better condition and, with the dash removed, we can properly clean all it's components.

- Project’s Background Story -
On February 21 ’09 our dad bought this ’96 Volvo 850 2.5L 20V estate. The Volvo has a big emotional value for us and seeing the car sitting still for so many years and watching nature taking over broke our hearts. After nine years, and sitting outside for 7 of those 9 years, we finally got our hands on the 850 and brought it back to its home where we will restore it to its former glory. Once we finish the restoration, we intend to make a road trip and keep in the family for many more years to come. - Авто та транспорт
the butt pad made me chuckle...good job lads!
Vacuum lines at the pedals are for the cruise control. There is one vacuum/electrical switch on the brake and one on the clutch. Make sure everything is properly connected and not leaking, otherwise the cruise control won't work.
That makes sense, thank you very much!😊
Thanks Bjorn! My 850’s CC doesn’t work either!
That's what I just wanted to write.
Hey guys
The hoses from the clutch are from the cruise control

Thank you very much!😄
keep these videos up! i love this well done boys, i hope you never stop updating us on the car!
Thanks! There is a lot more to do so the updates will keep coming😊
The vacuum hoses are for the cruise control. the actuator should be on the bulkhead.
Thank you!😄
From my experience, If you start thinking that you should "burn this shit" ,it means you are close to the end 😉
What a nightmare!!
Now thats a statement we can't argue with😅

I saw you stripping the wood veneer off the console in the last video, and wondered how you were going to get THAT back. I see in this video you bought a different dash and console.
I'm desperately seeking a method of restoring that wood grain. It's like a thin wood veneer with a thick clear coating flowed over it.
Well, our center console had some more issues so we decided to swap it. If we wanted to repair its wooden trim we would probably have used the same contact glue from Bison that we also used to repair the dash pad. Might be worth a try as that is still holding up (3 months now).
Haha 😂 😂 Good work
I was going to rebuild my 1995 850 wagon but now I don’t think I’ll do that!
Well, if the work seems too much, just start and do it one by one😉
@@MusTRitch thanks! I’m already doing that. It’s a slog for sure. I’ve owned the car for 27 years now and I hate to see it go. Unfortunately I’m 75 years old myself at this point. I don’t know if I can finish it.
Wow, 27 years is a long time. I imagine you really got a bond with your 850. We wish you the best of luck and hopefully you'll be able to at least enjoy the journey of restoring it!
You would have saved 1 year of restauration if you had bought a DeWalt dcf850 and a dcf900
