Abandoned 1967 Volvo 122s Amazon Hood release, radiator mounts, steering column, grille clips

Work continues on the 122. It's always the last 10% that takes 90% of the time. We even get a cold start today! Easiest #willitrun ever. Piles of new parts keep coming in for this car as we prepare for our end of summer road trip!
Thanks for checking out the channel!

😂 "Have to add to the list just to cross it off". Working on old Volvos 101 - list will be longer than anticipated. Lol

[@DeanofMachines]

Every darn time lol.

#1 Lawncare ASMR channel on Youts, hands down.

[@DeanofMachines]

I wouldn’t have it any other way

[@Involvod]

Funny as we watch this a storm is rolling in here, I'd be so nervous with my car collection under those massive trees 😅

[@DeanofMachines]

Everytime, its always nerve wracking.

[@Oh-Jay52]

love the old girl !!
bout time you sorted out your lack of back pressure !!
Will help the long cold start i reckon....🚑

[@DeanofMachines]

I should probably fix that choke cable too

[@gannicus1251]

Great video bro!!
I really enjoyed it thank you!

[@DeanofMachines]

Thank you for coming back! I can't wait to drive this thing more regularly

Eventually you have to get that weber carb off there and put some SUs on there. The engines run stronger and the SUs make the great intake noises to satisfy the audio stimulation. You can use the 66 and older intake for the SUs and keep the header you
are putting on. Sorry, not trying to tell you where to go with this car but I am not a big
fan of the weber setup on there. maybe if you put two of those weber carbs on there
then it might be fun.
Looking good Dean. Glad to see so much Amazon repairs going on.

[@DeanofMachines]

I have mixed feelings on the weber, ultimately, its not what I really want. It’s coming off eventually

[@POVwithRC]

I should call my rag joint, see how its doing.
I guess the discussion on old camcorders was a timely one. What a shame to lose such a cool Merc. Buying a fire extinguisher for the Volvo as we speak.

[@DeanofMachines]

Losing a cool car is a quick way to a broken heart. Thankfully we can always build more cool things. That's the best part anyway.

jd Scotland

[@DeanofMachines]

You have great taste in cars my friend! A Guilia is on the bucket list

[@ShawnTheGreek]

I thought for sure the hood release cable would be too short. Really looking forward to the new exhaust.
Starting: does the fuel pump or carb have a check valve to prevent gas flowing back to the tank? If so, it’s not working. Also, have you thought about adding an inline electric pump to help things out a bit?

[@DeanofMachines]

There are a lot of things I should look into. I think the first will be attaching the choke cable. :)

[@Weissherz]

Nice job, I heard they use bees wax on the old cars to keep the patina

[@Weissherz]

It might look nice on this car

[@DeanofMachines]

That's a good suggestion. I haven't heard of that before

[@Weissherz]

I saw it on mustie1's channel, it looked cool on those VW beetles 🔥

[@DeanofMachines]

@@Weissherz I've been a Mustie1 subscriber for many years! I forget he used beeswax. Now I should try it.

[@robertellis3260]

Would coil overs work?

[@DeanofMachines]

You could make them work with some fabrication I believe
