I'm so so so appreciative of these Volvo videos. I'm working on one and feeling overwhelmed and it's amazing to see someone walking through it already. Appreciate the humor, gotta keep it light! 🤟
These videos are absolutely incredible. I’m currently in the process of buying one of these cars and I sure will be looking all around the car for rust to make sure i don’t have to do all this 😅. Anyways, this is super informative and you gained a subscriber my friend !
@@bakedbeansgarage116 Well, with him having 1.33M subscribers - and counting - I wouldn't say that was a bad thing! Perhaps, some of that good fortune will come your way. Btw, Derek stole some of his 'act' from 'Red Green'!
Amazing teardown of this Volvo. I have a 745 Turbo I am trying to get back on the road. Love your wit, music and mechanical talent. Are you in Northern PA? I noticed the plate on car. I am just north of Phila.
Hello! Thank you for the kind words! I am actually in eastern North Carolina, the car belongs to a friend from Central Pennsylvania.l, hence the rust, lol.
I had the same thing with my MB w124, the water had gotten between the sound deadening and the floor.. It was all wet and came off in pieces😂 After couple of months it was welded up after many painful hours
9:11 I hope you are joking, but i dont think you are. Volvo is/was a SWEDISH Company, not Swiss. Even though both countries stayed neutral during WW2. Otherwise a great video, keep it up!
Good lord. I didn't even catch that I said Swiss, I had the Swiss cheese joke in my head I guess. Either way, I was brought up through the American education system, so I can't be expected to know the difference..
After fixing rust, soak the bottom of the car with Fluid Film. Smells like sheep, since it's lanolin - but it will prevent more issues like this in the future.

Best of luck with your project! Glad to have you here!
Respect! Both for your determination and for welding barefootet 😀
hoo! Vivaldi and old VOLVOS .. I take it ...!
this channel will blow up. period.
I appreciate the kind words! Getting paid to work on my own junk is honestly a dream.
Enjoyed the whole process, got me with the Shia lebouf movie hit 😅
I agree that rubberized rocker guard is a rust trap. It probably works ok for inner wheel wells and the stone chipping.

Thank man! Glad you enjoyed! Stick around because I'll be doing pretty much every possible job on this 740.
Looking for a 740 with no rust? Boy, do I have a car for you! Lol 😆
diesel?
Awesome job on the 740 Turbo diesel
Nice work 😉👍🇩🇰
Just leaving this comment to help appease the algorithm
I watched all of your Volvo 740 videos today and I definitely got a bit of a 'Vice Grip Garage' vibe! 😉
I'll certainly admit to having picked up some of Derek's mannerisms and sayings, lol.

@@bobjohnson1587 aah, that makes sense, I definitely picked up some cadence from Red Green.
Really great job done!

Tractor and implement paint with catalyst, basically Rust-Oleum. I used Majik brand.
