Love that these guys at the show aren’t afraid to get their rides wet!
I’ve had a 245 turbo, an S70, S60 and an XC60. Volvo for life.
I may have to join the Volvo club of America. I have a project 1965 122, a 1970 145, a 1974 145, a 1992 940 and a 1993 240. I speak fluent Volvo by the way.
For sure, lol
You most certainly must! My articles are in their magazines too :)
Wow! I'm coming over to help. Ha ha From mtw in L.A. - w/ a Double Black 1993 240. Super tinted windows. Stock. 157 k mi.

No wife, ones for fun the the other for the pets.
Hello America, From Europe . Volvo fans. I have my litle, big 850 Tdi with preumium sound system,. And much more power from company who make it R. My car second came from America AWD V70 R. Blue Silver.
That opening shot in the house is very late 60's early 70's type decor.
I Love it just my kind of thing but then I would I have a 1971 164
I wanted to show up, but I just bought a house, and its taken all of my time and money recently. So mad i missed it
Congrats on the house!
The best part about Volvos are other members in the community
Lots of eye candy in that parking lot!
Bought a 1977 242 DL in 1981 from a friend n had the car for 21 years.
Thanks for showing if my english is bad its because im a Finnish from Sverige
I love Bach....❤️
You're kidding me!! You were there and I don't bump into you?!? So sad right now.
I HEARD THE VOICE OF REDBLOCKSOCIETY with that white 240 usa front
These Volvo are beautiful
Do you wear glasses? Should you wear glasses? Lol
I love this video! Thank you David Bello!
Excellent video,, I didn’t know this was so big of event. I was looking for an 1982 244 gl like mine and nothing.
Awesome video happy birthday
Hi David! Another nice video. Beautiful car aswell!! Take care
Thank you Patrick!
I want to go visit the Volvo museum in Sweden and you should too. @DavidBello
IIRC Early model 240Turbos ('81 - '83) without the intercooler had 127 hp @ 5400 rpm & 150 ft-lbs. torque @ 3750 rpm. Maximum factory boost pressure was 7.5 psi.
1984 240 Turbos without the intercooler had 131 hp @ 5400 rpm & 155 ft-lbs. torque @ 3750 rpm. Maximum factory boost pressure was 7.5 psi.
1985 240 Turbos with the intercooler (stock) had 162 hp @ 5100 rpm & 181 ft-lbs. torque @ 3900 rpm. Maximum factory boost pressure was 10.5 psi.
Volvo dealers started offering the intercooler kit after sales of the 1984 model year were already in progress - about halfway through the model year (around January / February of 1984). The price of the kit was staggering, but as seen from the numbers above, added about 31 horsepower and almost 30 ft-lbs. of torque.
Thus, most 1984.5 and newer 240 Turbos actually received the intercooler kit already installed from the factory and probably had a higher MSRP.
Great event ! I can almost feel the rain on my head. Ha Ha. DB you are an inspiration. Cheers!
I have a 1993 silver 240 Volvo Wagon with $79,000 Mi and not a bit of rust on it and I love cruising up here in the White Mountain National Forest of New Hampshire I love you videos keep it up man.
Hi David! Another nice video as always. 👍
19:38 I see someone even brought a Volga. Great movie, great cars, great quality. Thx for sharing, David.
Great video
I've been jonesing for a David Bello video and hey presto! And a wonderful production it is. Thanks for making this; I watched with a tea towel under my chin as all the old and newer Volvos were revealed.
I keep thinking about what a great daytripper a 164 with manual overdrive would be. Someday...
Great video David and some fantastic Volvos
Fantastic production David! I enjoyed every moment. Thank you for sharing your passion for Volvo!
I do like this channel..........thanks 👍
You're inspiring me to get my 84 244 back on the road.
But, it needs a heater core. ugh...
Thank you for sharing your experience at the meet. I was planning on attending but the rainy weather kept me and the fam away.
Let’s hope for better weather next year.
Nice
Dear David Bello.
👍👌👏 Another great video. Despite the fact that it rained, you did extremely well. This time (and very unusual because it's not an oldtimer) I liked the NA FLASH Volvo the most. Simply because of the gorgeous green exterior and the stunning orange interior. It's a kind of dream car and I would love to own it.
2) Did I miss something? Obviously you have sold Ivy to buy the gorgeous and almost rust free and nearly not sun damaged "Mermaid" (or "Oceans 11"?). She is really, really beautiful. As often mentioned, I love nearly everything that is green. I like the fact that your new oldtimer car has fuel injection. So no fiddling around with the carburator(s) necessary any longer. Hope you got completely rid of the moldy smell so that you can enjoy driving your new old vehicle. By the way: It was nice to see that a lot of friends helped you. I wish you a ton of fun with the car. The engine runs smooth, sounds really good and strong (nearly turbine like while accelerating). Congrats for purchasing this Volvo and congrats for the medals/prices.
As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all involved people.
Dear Chru Cas, thank you for the comment and congratulations. Yes, Ivy was sold earlier this summer and I was hired to do her restoration as well. This makes a nice full circle, as the effort put into Ivy was rewarded in this car, in a way, both personally and at the show. I have a full backyard of volvo cars and parts that I am daily recording footage to put together in videos here. But the big priority is the Ivy movie, which recounts the entire story and this chapter as well. It is my goal to have that out by year’s end.
So far I love the new green car, and I’ve just been calling it “109” as I often keep the previous owners’ monikers. I hope you’re well and enjoying cooler weather once more. See you soon with the next video on the second car show. SLORolling festival upon the completion of this car’s cross-country road trip home to California!
David
P.s. today is my birthday
Absolutely beautiful film.. Thanks
Checkout the Volvo Mawah NJ headquarters show next year. Great collection 👍
Volvo Headquarters Are In Rockleigh, New Jersey.
If you remove the muffler and run a strait pipe in its place from the resonator back, it makes a unique and powerfully loud sound in the fighter RPMs. Beautiful….
It's both really cool but frustrating in the little nuisances between the 164 years. Tape speedo to the standard...the wash bottle 12 oz to the milk jug...brake lights vertical 3 to horizon at 4 to horizontal 6.... Headrest..
Oh my. Thanks again for the videos.
Milk jug! 😂 😂
It always rains during car shows doesn't it🤣🤣
My first time :)
@@DavidBello Maybe that's just a South African thing
@@serotonin182 I have memories of big rainstorms in the 90s when we lived in Boksburg
@@DavidBello Never knew you lived in South Africa.
I don't know who owns the strange blue 122 Amazon, but I swear that's my old car. It was painted that blue and a Ford Econoline van that color on the same weekend in 1972. The original color was a powder blue. The car originated in NJ made it's way to NH, where I traded it straight up in 73 for a new Formula Vee Beetle (Big Mistake). The VW lasted 4 years and the floors and rockers completely rusted away. There's always been a Volvo in our driveway and I'm currently resurrecting my 77/245 with 680,000 miles. Afraid it will never be in a show as it's my FrankenVolvo. (wish I could post a photo of the Marvel updraft tractor carb that replaced the fuel injection).
Den svarta 245:an (34:01) med svensk registreringsskylt RDD453, numret tillhör en VW polo årsmodell 2017, bilen är alltså falskskyltad😮😁
The only car that is recognised as a Volvo when children make a car from Lego. 😂. I had a 145 seven seater, for 14 years whilst children growing up. Most practical people mover before SUV’s came into vogue
We have 5 volvos here! Lol..
Just found a 164e here as well. Thinking of taking fully built LS out of my 240 and sticking in the 164. However idk how the ford 8.8 swap into a 164 is...
They're only original once!
Lovely cars mate - how would you fix that dashboard crack?
great video, whom is the music by at the beginning
Greetings David, this is a great vid on the national meet. But I have a question that has puzzled me for years, and as you're an expert on these Volvos I thought you might have the answer.
On the timing belt cover of the Group A 242 there is a paper sticker. Red background with black text reading "800". Can you tell me what the 800 signifies?
Many red blocks of this era had stickers on the timing belt cover with different numbers. I once asked my Volvo mechanic if he knew what it meant. He said he knew exactly what it meant. Clearly I had asked the wrong question, I should have asked, "What does it mean?". I never did find out.
Can you enlighten me?
31:15 Was that a T-yellow (T-gul) 850 or a normal one painted yellow? Asking since the T-yellow 850s are super super rare.
Will that grill fit my 240 GL
ventshades on the blue amazon,??
Did he end up restoring that white 242 turbo? It's pretty crusty
David Bello, How can I find you????
Why would you say ugh at the yellow T-5R?
1985
At first I thought that was your car, but when it turned out to be a 1972 and your car 🚗 is a 1969 164.
It is my car. I sold the 69
Sorry that car looks awesome all painted.
I looking volvo 244 1982 for buy.
Buy Volvos. They're Boxy, But They're Good.
