One day I hope to have a 740 in that blue as clean as yours. Keep it up!

[@TooFlyNico]

Right. Especially in the estate and with a nice big turbo

[@jellybean1976928]

@@TooFlyNico Yea, but sadly fast forward 3 years on and this car will be no longer. I have dozens of 740's here in Australia, only ever wrecked three that were non repairable. Don't get me wrong, I like the gist of the channel, but I would prefer that the "beaters" are repaired and repaired again and again and that the few good cars are kept good for posterity.

[@Lugmarston]

@@jellybean1976928 I really think he is heading in to having a clean drift car he got the intercooler piping matched put new tail lights in it decked out the hatch he has the driving skill to keep a car clean and drift it I hope this one stays around as I have a 1993 wagon same color it grew on me for sure

[@KooksandCars]

You're channel is the reason I just bought a cheap 760 turbo wagon, slowly turning it into a drift missle, I'd forsure support the knuckle kit if you made em

[@lilspider162]

i love how much effort you have put into this beautiful 740 hope theres more improvements in future

[@mikedzialoszynski6692]

I really like the colour of this wagon! but i would recomend moving your battery to a safer location given your history with wall taps. Maybe build a battery box where the spare tire goes? Keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to seeing the first drive.

[@rivman249]

so clean. I just got a 1990 volvo 740 turbo. so stoked you helped/inspired me for years brotha. keep up the good work

[@030yk]

Same, I got a red '90 740 turbo wagon, I love it so much! Looking for seats/brackets rn.

[@roarljkelsy5281]

Thats a realy sweet brick, love how raw and gutted it is. All i would think of is putting a cage in it and maybe like a racing, light heater core? Anyway can't wait to see this thing tear the roads.

[@KABOBkabob]

Yeah not having at least a blower fan or defroster would drive me nuts

[@Stale_Mahoney]

also dropping a 2.5L crank in that would be rad, less boost for the same power, or the same boost for MORE POWDER ;)

[@Low760]

Or a more modern turbo will provide more power for less boost

[@Stale_Mahoney]

@@Low760 true, but he got a 2.5L crank. dont know how many modern turbos he got laying about

[@Low760]

@@Stale_Mahoney the cost of a pulsar gtx35 isn't that much really

[@Stale_Mahoney]

@@Low760 true but it's still a cost to buy, and even then, the same gtx35 would meke the same power on lower boost if it was mounted to a 2.5 rather than a 2.3

[@mohis5664]

I've said this before but i will say it again, if you ever find a D24 Volvo there with a reasonable price, definitely buy one, i'd like to see content about it

[@TheAussieRod]

That's just beautiful, mate. Congratulations!

[@OurTone1111]

Would’ve loved to have seen more videos of this cars transformation bro

[@Involvod]

Awesome! What paint code is that wagon?

[@TheMilkman740GL]

Milkman here- love the blue wagon, looks clean. Update on my volvo, its in the shop because I don't have the time to dink around with seemingly vanishing water pump threads. Should have it in February. More intresting news is that i know someone want a volvo and one willing to sell two junked ones for 950. Thinking that I fix one up to legal standards and sell it for 2250. With my est. Costs, i should be only paying 150 for tge second body

[@user-vs7sb9wg2r]

That vibrant catchcan has a really nice smile 😀

[@jfv65]

I looked for such an alu hood for quite some time for using on a 740 rally car. Never found one. This was sometime in 2007-2010. I also used to look out for 4,10:1 rear axel. I found them on 740GLE 16v B234F automatics. Also rare.

[@digems8830]

cant wait to see this thing move you did a great job its been worth the wait

[@SevenFortyMotorsports]

Night and day man, sick! Glad I could help store it for a while 🤙

[@connorkisley9012]

The content we've been dying for good shit sir

[@jackkrupka3024]

Can't wait to see how the wagon drives!

[@EyeseeGrim26]

Just careful daily driving that beauty, if someone t-bones u you will cry afterwards...if you're still alive. I specifically drive these tanks because of their cross- bar reinforcements. might get less good gas usage, but I know its solid & safe. I also have two extra batterys in my spare wheel comp. kinda like yours but for an insane sound system, I recommend wrapping it up and sitting on some packing foam so it doesn't bang around back there. Another swede build my friend.

[@driftsnlifts]

Yea this thing will be reserved for nice days only ! Im gonna make a battery hold down of some sort before having any fun

[@Jlinwoodjackson]

Oh man…. I had a NA engine and the gearing was sooooo tall. Had to keep that thing spun up… ride 3rd gear out hard.. Wow.. took out MOST of the dash. I had that same blue interior. I loved it.

[@plisken8799]

What a nice Volvo

[@fronts3165]

Dope build. I had a 760 turbo wagon, 1985 same blue as yours, a Kelowna car. The hood was not aluminum.

[@miltonhoglund2521]

U should cut out the floor in the extra wheel compartment like FE media has done, Then you will see crazy weight numbers.

[@daw7563]

Sparkblow - juat tighten the spark gaps and it will be fine.

[@driftsnlifts]

theyre currently at 0.018 unfortunely

[@WildlandsGG]

Sick car, sick cat. Sad it's gutted so hard though, would be sick if you kept the interior cozy and comfy.

[@euphoric5172]

is this finally the redemption of clean goldie turbo 740 build?

[@olivierd8296]

Excited to see it running 💯

[@Turbo8285]

Yeah I’ve never saw aluminum 740 hood I’m in the States that’s dope though

[@jonorrin7242]

Sic i like your commitment for Volvo i have a 760 1989 wagon i like the spoiler i got mine just like it at the pick n pull in modesto CALIFORNIA have fun and be safe up there huh 😎

[@brianbaney2360]

That looks amazing man good job makes me miss my 86 camaro I built like that

[@ghostofzuul]

you should bring the blue wagon down to pnw wagon fest this year!

[@TurboWorld]

Blue, yer My Boi! Cool Car man!

[@cx7sleven369]

Hell ya brother! Can't wait to see ya at the race way! If could send can of tuna to your cat I would.

[@hayballz1]

Aluminum hood also came on my 1990 760 turbo redblock American market car originally sold at queens volvo NY. I believe the early 960s also got the aluminum hood.

[@driftsnlifts]

Ah yes the 1990+ 760 and 960s had alum hoods. Those are quite common. But this 80s style alum hood is very difficult to find

[@Dunkelzeitgeist]

Yes 👀😂 I'll go watch now

[@1989Longboy]

Gorgeous 7 series wagon. Can't wait to see what this thing can do. 🫡

[@FORDLYFAOTEAROA]

Feels like a good time to rewatch the gloss black gangster wagon episode

[@taikistephon4218]

make a knuckle kit for 200 series too ❤ please and thanks

[@1337tiny]

Looks awsome and happy newyear bud👌🏼

[@hupe5836]

im interested in the knuckels

[@Biohazard667Productions]

coool, but man.. when are you gonna build an full interior 740 wagon ? and turbo 5 cilinder. that woud be great

[@ryandouglass7466]

Do you happen to have the part number for the fuel regulator?

[@tokeri4198]

dayyymn dude havent checked in with you in a while, and its done the deep sea metallic blue 745 is built dude some ox blood interior with tintend windows and you can pick up any girl in sweden

[@tokeri4198]

i should have waited until 15:00 + lol forget the oxblood car looks great .. for folkrace lol its pretty extreme

[@Korruptionen]

What a gorgeous car. Nice work!

[@KABOBkabob]

what wheel/tire setups are these on? the gold car looks like 15x8 on 205 60r15 maybe?

[@Mousyy]

And so it begins...

[@Asz_]

brother sold our 740 couple of months ago and i really miss it now 😭😭

[@uberpelaaja]

She’s a beaut gotta say

[@ludicrousfilms635]

Such a great car. I’d love to get a zf transmission in my car. I’m tired of blowing m47’s

[@motomike2252]

Can you recommend somebody in the lower mainland who will do a manual swap on my 940? Just don't have the time to take it on myself.

[@MrDN81]

Could you specify what FPR you are running on it. I need one for my 945 fk build

[@Dssfox]

also use dry ice for sound deaphening material, summer doesnt matter

[@billpetersen298]

All it needs, are external air bags. Beauty.

[@ikolaspounderz2980]

I've recently picked up an 89 740 gl wagon unfortunately with the Regina get up, I want to t and run a stand alone but I've had no luck finding a detailed go through of doing it. All I get is "swap the motor and ECU and to lh2.4" do you have a walkthrough of this build, specifically with the ECU part 😂

[@osmosisjonas8105]

I love your Volvo's I have a 1964 Volvo amazon

[@lukemaddirala4346]

Just picked up a 88 740 GLE it’s n/a tho I wanna find a turbo or keep it and do a swap some day. I’ll prolly try to make it an drift build similar to your n/a 740 It’s a snail 😂

[@abnormalethnogenesis9766]

+1 on the angle kit

[@Turbo8285]

I bought a 89 GLE Wagon 234f 16v have you ever worked with that turboing

[@MooseRidez]

Is the lift hatch glass lexan too?

[@Stale_Mahoney]

14:42 not sure it's allot of weight but i believe you can remove the steel reinforcement bar going thru the back door there, dont seem like you gonna be running with passengers in the back

[@driftsnlifts]

Oo good call ! Every pound counts!

[@henrikskoldhjalte9577]

I was going to comment the same thing as Ståhle. And when you have a rollcage you can remove the reinforcements from the front doors also. I think you would also save a few pounds and gain a few hp by changing the visco fan to an electric fan. Volvo 850 and 940 with ac have nice electric fans.

[@leeds182]

What a whip!!

[@Turbo8285]

@ Drift N’ Lifts Do they make or any hacks ? On my 1989 Volvo 740 GLE wagon it’s a b234f 16v full mint black leather interior and really wanna keep factory front seats but I’m 6’3” and the seat is manual and not low or back far enough so anyone know…?

[@bigboybmx69]

I’m on the market for a 740 since I found buttloads of rust I don’t want to repair on my 240 of the last years. Do these share the same rust spots? I always see debates that the 7/940’s are harder to rot

how long until the usual : " I wanted to keep it clean " 😆

The intake from b230E kjetronic. is smoother flow for Every Chanel. The F intake works for 400whp but its not optimal.. The AFR gets a bit Lean in the 2-3 cyl. but i guess you dont have much of that engine spareparts in Canada?

why does only the turbo diesel ones have an akuminium hood? thats a bit weird
