My first car, built like a tank. Had it from 1966 until 1981 when we left for Australia. I still hanker after that car
SOOOO IMPRESSIVE! A GREAT driver/nav team with optimum lines and power and braking through every turn! What a pleasure to watch! Great video production too...beautiful camerawork, positions, angles and composition (thanks to the cameraman to getting to the 1:10 filming position...gorgeous views and sounds...a well earned trophy guys!...I'll have to take a cold shower now...maybe I'll just watch it again...a few times, first!
Are you a driver?
best looking and sounding car in the event!! good to see them having a red hot go and getting the rewards.
Sick video guys. Well done, and good luck for this week.!
Loved this!
I had a 67 when I was in high school (75-76) and put a Thrush straight pipe muffler on it. It never sounded this good, but man it could move!
Great video!
What a music! Fantastic oldtimer ;)
Hi Ken
Steering is standard. Box was carefully re-built. 3 deg neg camber and 3 deg castor helps stability. Still a little vague around the straight ahead but not so noticeable once it is up to speed.
So car looks and sounds great, has rally history , and they're not too expensive to purchase...Yes, a Volvo 122S sounds like a good first classic car purchase.
Oh gosh, what a beauty! It's the Attack of the Amazon!
UnclePutte Yeah - it's a classic. Such an incredible car. Please make something like this again, Volvo!
My dad was the oldest Volvo dealer in country when I was young I had 122 p1800 544 164 and 262 c glass he died 1985 to young 16 at time long story but growing up was fun
Well they weren't hanging about were they ? That amazon just loved being at full throttle.
Go Andy!!!!
Pure sound is right!
Any special tricks done to the steering gear and or linkages to make an Amazon handle like this? M 122 steering is so vague around center....
Beautifully done car, a true inspiration.
Magnificent, and it’s as pretty as my MG Magnette.
Supercool Gonna build one with B230Fe enging, M47 transmission from Volvo 740/940 and a Volvo 240 rear axle, 250 hp in a 1100 Kg Amazon sounds like great fun

Hi Daniel
You can see a description of the car's build at www.volvoadventures.com/andrewwhite2.html. Happy to help with any advice.
Andy White
Hey Daniel, some detail on the car's build can be found at Volvo Adventures ( www.volvoadventures.com/andrewwhite2.html) Nothing too exotic. There's also some footage from last year's event here (Targa Tasmania 2013: Volvo 122S - Pure sound ) with slightly better sound: this year we had a high rev' ignition problem we're still trying to sort (valve springs, igtion, etc). This limited us to about 6,300 rpm. For a view from the other side of the 'screen search WorksVolvo, cheers, AY
What kind of engine and trans in the Amazon???
whats the exhaust situation here. I want to put it on my car. Straight pipe?
4 into1 21/2" pipe and small low restriction muffler at rear
Is that the original B18 or perhaps a B23?
Not sure but you can hear the sidedraft su carbs whistling
Its a B18 bored out to 1954cc (class Limit) with 45 webers, head work, etc, 195hp
Ah i see! Thanks for the response
