$50 Project Car: 1988 Volvo 740 Rescue (Part 3)

[@tomaslopez9642]

For $50, you got a new car practically, those 740s,760s are some strong reliable cars, and now that you are putting it Up to date , it is going to last a long time.

[@ejoautovideos]

Yes, I agree. Love this car. Thank you for commenting 😊

[@mortimergladbreath]

Seeing new parts on an old Volvo is so satisfying!

[@bobjohnson205]

Than you would love mine! lol

[@Amadeus1999]

Alltid satisfying att kolla på restaureringar av dessa bilar! Riktigt bra jobbat! Och tack för tipset om bromscylindern, underlättar verkligen!👍👍

[@ejoautovideos]

Tackar! Eller hur? Det är ett riktigt nice knep, lärde mig det av min gamla fordonslärare. 👍

[@tkajtsai1586]

Good job ! Restore old cars is true love for earth.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you so much for your comment, have a nice day! 😊

[@markyYE]

Vilket jävla tips det där med att trycka in bromsen, tack!

Did a good job. Nice car. I have a 1990 760 gle I am getting ready for inspection here in Canada. Parts in Canada are hard to come by. Has to get the altenator and starter rebuilt because i could not find a new anywhere. Unfortunately they did not replace the solenoid, so it has to come out again. It will be a great car once it is done, just like your car.

[@ejoautovideos]

Thank you! Nice to hear that, good luck with your car! 😁👍

Working on a 1986 760 turbo with about 133,000 miles all in the no salt U.S. southwest. Major headaches are crumbling insulation on wires especially in the engine compartment. Needs a new O2 sensor as well and has a heat shield in the way of changing it that is almost impossible to access one of the bolts. Had to run down a lot of bad grounds (earths) also. Mechanically it is good. Electric is a mess.

[@ejoautovideos]

That's a nice car! Quite rare with 7-series turbo models here in Sweden actually. Plenty of NA models though. Sorry to hear about the bad wiring, hope you fix it! 😊

[@BellaRocko]

@john brink, i'm going through same issues with my '87 760 turbo wagon... bad grounds, crumbling wire insulations. A lot of work, but I love the car so she's worth it! :)

[@NomHeads]

Some people don’t know the strugle of annual inspections 😭

[@ejoautovideos]

Yes I know! However this car only needs inspection every two years, because of it's old age.

[@bobjohnson205]

Where I live there are only inspections when you sell the car. Phew! lol

[@MackansGarage]

Good Job!! Do I intend to buy a Volvo S60 in a while, I have my sights set on that, why? now I drove 3 Renaults Safrane years ago with a 2.5 liter Volvo engine, a real perfect engine with such a messy 170hp. Now the Safrane has been out of production since 2001 and the newest "replacement" the Talisman is still a bit too expensive for me as 2nd hand. So I am now looking for a good Volvo S60 and it may well be a year 8 to 10 years old, I am concerned that the quality of these cars is just good and when I see a Volvo of 30 years old and what is is wrong or needs to be replaced then I am all that bad, I expected worse !! By the way, I have driven a Volvo truck all over Europe for work and it has never let me down, so quality counts, ha ha THE last I drove was a Volvo 540, before that a 400, 460 and 500 hp, but they are not inferior to each other.

[@edvardsz3539]

Pro tip: don't buy new brake discs (Brembo, Meyle etc.), buy barely used original ones. Same price, but much better (does not warp or rust as fast as aftermarket ones)

[@adamopel5702]

Nice, jag tycker det är roligt att se mek med äldre bilar som du och Mackan visar, det framkallar gamla minnen👍

[@ejoautovideos]

Hehe ja men eller hur? Äger både gammalt och nytt, men gamla bilar har en helt annan charm med alla sina egenheter och skönhetsfläckar. 😝 Tack för kommentaren!

[@MackansGarage]

Gött att den gick igenom nu 😀👍 bra jobbat!

[@ejoautovideos]

Yes, riktigt skönt! 😁

[@ejoautovideos]

Not on these.

[@ejoautovideos]

From a Swedish store called Biltema

[@ollenordkvist6286]

När kommer del 4? Längtar riktigt mycket till den! Vad har du för planer med bilen sedan? Ska du sälja iväg den eller hur gör du?

[@ejoautovideos]

Vad kul att du ser fram emot del 4! :) Har faktiskt filmat en hel del i helgen (och tidigare helger) så måste bara organisera upp allt material och redigera ihop en ny del. Så förhoppningsvis inom kort! 😉
