Peugeot 505 SR: The Incredible Restoration Journey from Paris to Girona. FULL MOVIE

[@MrPod15]

I had a 505 SR new in 1987 with the 7 seat version. I had the optional GTi alloy wheels and a Blaupunkt radio cassette player. I was the envy of many as I unloaded three of my son’s band members, a complete drum kit, guitars, amps, stands etc. Happy memories, thank you!

[@alcala_technology]

Haha, thanks for watching!

[@checheppurnama6973]

This car reminds me when I was still a little kid. My late dad had this Peugeot 505 back in 1978, and this car was the first one I learned to drive in 1983 when I was still 15. And guess what, I still keep this car with me, still in pretty good condition.

Only the Matra Rancho or a 3 door Range Rover existed then, as SUV's. That must be one of the most solid 505's I've seen in a long time. Here in Austria road salt claimed most of them.

@@alcala_technology I'm from Indonesia, and I had one in 1988 when I was still at university, namely a 1981 Peugeot 505 GR manual transmission, production number 80, I know exactly what's on the bottom, especially the middle exhaust which often has holes due to rust. I memorize the engine parts because it still uses a carburetor. The temperature problem of Peugeot cars always haunts all Peugeot car owners in Indonesia, because in Indonesia the temperature is tropical so the temperature in the radiator is often problematic, finally I found a solution, namely, replacing the extra fan with a BOSCH brand Merchedez fan with 13 fan blades, so that more air is emitted. faster and cooler to the radiator, the results are quite successful but it is a bit noisy because the fan sound is a bit loud. And another problem is that the clutch pedal is very hard to press, so if you have a Peugeot you should choose an automatic transmission so you don't complain about the clutch pedal when the roads are busy and jammed.

It's beautiful and inspiring what you achieved with this 505. As a owner of a 505 it's a dream to reach that level of prettyness. One little constructive comment is that the valves in the engine are a little bit off in calibration; you can hear them knocking in idle and i can tell because when they're well adjusted they shouldn't sound at all. It's a very unique sound. After the wear and tear of the engine you shouldn't use the factory calibration. Keep up the good work and i'm sad that i live across the world because i would love to send my 505 to you guys to restore it

Finally somebody that doesnt do a porsche, merc, quatro. Kudo's!! Wish Alcala was closer, i'd have them do my 505. Only comment i'd have: Why pick the wildly expensive TRX wheels/tires when 15 inch look-a-likes are much cheaper to get tires for? Also, I don't like the black center caps.

The Peugeot 505 is one of a Kind. My Grandad had a Red Estate one and used it as a delivery car for his Flower shop. It Covered almost 300,000 Miles over 30 Years with very little issues and now i have it in a Garage. They are still being used today as Bush Taxis in Africa due to there durability and having High ground clearance and Available in 7 Seats also with a 3rd row as an option. Peugeot dont make cars like this anymore.

Thank you for your comment! We're glad you noticed the condition of the 505 - it truly is a remarkable car. 😍 As for the tires, you’re right to point that out! Initially, the vehicle had incorrect tires mounted, which were more suited for a van.

Beautiful work,It looks like new.But when It came in It didn’t look so bad.So I think this is not a real restauration,but a reconditioning.I am thinking and Trying to find out what the costs will be.Thank you for showing your work.Greetings from the Netherlands

[@alcala_technology]

Thank you for your kind words and for watching! We truly appreciate your perspective. While it may seem like the car didn’t look too bad initially, we believe that even small details matter in a true restoration. Every part, whether it’s visible or not, gets the attention it deserves to ensure the car’s longevity and original quality. That being said, reconditioning is also an essential part of the restoration process, and it can sometimes be hard to distinguish between the two. As for the costs, it can vary depending on the scope of work, parts needed, and the level of restoration or reconditioning desired. If you’d like more details or a personalized estimate, feel free to reach out! Thank you for following our work, and greetings to you in the Netherlands!

اسيارة العندي ٥٠٥:١٩٨٥ كم تستهلك من المدة وقيمت انقد اشحال حاقها

[@alcala_technology]

بالنسبة لسيارة بيجو 505 موديل 1985، تعتمد استهلاك الوقود على عدة عوامل مثل حالة المحرك، نوع القيادة، والطريق المستخدم. لكن بشكل عام، يمكن أن تستهلك هذه السيارة حوالي 10-12 لتر من الوقود لكل 100 كيلومتر (9-11 ميل لكل جالون) في ظروف القيادة العادية. أما بالنسبة للسعر (قيمة السيارة)، فهو يعتمد على عدة عوامل أيضًا، مثل حالتها العامة، وصيانة المحرك، وعدد الكيلومترات المقطوعة، والموقع الجغرافي. بشكل عام، سيارات بيجو 505 القديمة يمكن أن تتراوح أسعارها بين 12000 إلى 10000 دولار أمريكي، ولكن هذا يعتمد بشكل كبير على حالتها والطلب في السوق المحلي.
