Think it looks good but I wonder - is it just for visiual effect that you put a steel plate along the downside of the front spoiler? It made me want to try a version of that on my 240 🙂, Greetings from Sweden.
Nice rust removal technique, that saves a lot of physical work. Final things about Monica before we see her on the road. I saw in the background in another room that you are also working on Laura's car.
In the event of torque settings not being listed in the Haynes Manual, they can always be torqued to spec like Christian from ""LR Time" by pulling on the torque wrench and saying "Click-click".
Fear not Lewis. It took you 20 time lapsed seconds to clean up the last anti roll bar. Good to see the welsh premier wiper fitting specialist 😉😄. Fine work and satisfying rust removal.
Hi, how did the trimmed front sway bar bushes go? Are they staying in place? Interested, as I am about to do the same thing, with the same bushes from Classic Swede. How did the MOT go? cheers
Hey Brendon! The bushes are fine. We will be upgrading the whole setup to powerflex in the future but for now they are spot on. Just make sure you trim enough to keep them snug but enough off for movement. MOT.... you'll have to tune in tomorrow to find out about how that went 😐
Volvo looking fantastic, all your hard work will pay off! mines due its MOT in three weeks so going through the checks now! it is a nervous time....i`m sure you`ll have no advisories, with my Jimny im not so sure? anyhow looking forward to seeing your first road trip good luck guys! cheers!
Hi guys, are you worried about hydrogen embrittlement related to electrolysis? I do electrolysis myself and it's something I'm beginning to get concerned about
That chemical bin is epic. If your daughter ends up with an undesirable boyfriend you could chuck him in there to dissolve and then pour him down a drain
Your very welcome!
The car is looking amazing, a credit to all your hard work.
Thanks Tim! Volvo is running a treat thanks to your handy work!
Hey, the 'Hubnut fitted my wipers' club isn't that exclusive y'know!😁
Unfortunately, I'm also a member of the 'Hubnut did my paint job' club but that may change😅
Luckily the membership numbers for that club are even lower 😂

Fantastic video as always. I’m certain Monica will fly through her MOT 👏👍
I like the hard colour contrast with the yellow anti rollbars. Good job guys!
Nice really like the colour choice. She's getting close to being finished. Can't wait to hear how she drives.🇦🇺
Just adds a little something to the dark underneath we think. Won't be long till she's on the road! Yeehaaaa!
Great work , would you mind sharing how you made the rust devolving wheelie bin please
We made a video on how the process works on a smaller scale, we'll try and do one one the monster bin though 😁
Great to see Monica almost on the road. Should fly trough the MOT. 😊
Hopefully an update on that soon! 😁👍
What did you have in the bin liquid-wise please? What is the best stuff to use for rust removal in such volume? Thanks :)

8 minutes in total normal time! Wish we had a giant stopwatch 😂
Monica the Volvo, made by the Welsh UA-cam Classic Car Trio of Joy. There's lovely.

@@WhitelandRestorations Nice. I'm fitting Dai's 260 style front sway bay, to clear my engine sump...not a Volvo ;). You can bet I'll be watching.
Looks good for now.Give it a year or two and that paint will be flaking off with all the twisting?
And factory standard is any better?
Don't worry, I put plasticizer is the paint to account for the flex. Should be better than factory
I hate clever people! 😃Love it, and the horn tutorial at the end....PRICELESS!
Case of working smarter not harder that bin 😂 horn tutorial made our day
So what fell into the electrolysis tank?
It was the clamp holding the bar! I'm sending Lewis in after it 😂

Good luck with the Jimny mot! We'll hopefully have a vid featuring it's first run soon 😁

I don't know if Volvo R-Sport sway bars was a thing before, but now they are 😉
240 R-sport edition! Was tempted to colourmatch the seat belts too 😂
@@WhitelandRestorations The sway bars matches the registration plates thats nice 👍 Really great looking 240 over all!

Love the Volvo.
Thank you Michel! Appreciate the love!
That noise isn't teething!
😂
Your little person is so big and wiggly already!
We think she's setting records for how fast she's growing out of everything! 😂
Hi
I still think the head lights and the rear boot spoiler just don’t suit ….
