on my car a fellow forum member he did it remotely. I had the laptop connected to the obd port and he used teamviewer to connect to my laptop and do the coding.
The production quality of this channel beats most big budget car shows. The attention to detail, the professionality, the cinematography, the lot. I can’t get enough of it!
Never had this level of mixed emotions before, to be both this happy and sad that this project has been completed. Absolutely unbelievable job, what a guy, what a car!
Very true , better than a Volvo advert , you know , i’d buy one today if they still made them , timeless classics, I’ve had Volvos in the family for over 30 years , my favourite was the V70 Classic , I’m an old dude now and the wife’s fed up with my Volvo workhorses.. so sadly 😢 I’ve got a jag-waaa
I rarely comment on TH-cam, but in this case, I’d like to express my appreciation for your videos. I’m a European guy that has been in love with Volvo’s, especially the R models, since I was a 5 year old. My dad always had Volvo’s, never the R though, but I fixed that myself and have a nice 850R I cherish. Now here’s why I appreciate you and your videos: You love the car for what it is. All mods you do, is more like a polish of what is already a very enjoyable roadcar, instead of modding with the more is better kind of approach. You are not changing it to an poor driving, unreliable HP monster or “racecar for the road because the R should be faster”. I believe you are doing it right. But I guess you knew this already because when you take a testdrive afterwards you look like a little boy on Christmas morning. Have fun with your special Swedish special car, keep it nice and enjoy it as a true classic car later on in life too that will only gain value and rarity if you keep it clean. Also, I don’t know if you did anything to strengthen the cilinders, but be careful you don’t crack those walls and it will serve you well for years.

Been following this series since the start and I gotta say, this is the most entertaining videos you can watch on TH-cam as a whole! Really love the build and I’m really looking forward to seeing what new projects you have waiting for us to see! Greetings from a v70-owner from Sweden 🇸🇪
Those cinematic rollers gave me chills. This channel has it all Cool Volvo’s, good info, great camera work, and you’re great to watch. Seriously one of the best channels on TH-cam
This young man is an organized genius . very sober and informative knowledge . I would say , He is a meticulous teacher who simplifies the most complicated . I own an XC 70 and l wish He was my neighbor . l would gladly give him my car to work on with total peace of mind . I wish you the best of success young man. Thank you for this great video and photography .
8:39 i'm not 100% sure but, i think you need to change the ball and arm as well. Not just the cables. edit: no bueno on putting a bolt, it needs to be able to move on that ball. Call a dealership for Volvo and ask them for the proper ball - and ... cables. Also, never over tighten your bleed screws. You only want to snug them because of several reasons, but the two most important. 1. you'll damage the seal surface 2. you'll never get them off once corrosion sets in - and it always does.
Congrats from a Honda guy from Indy. Really, really happy for you and to say I enjoyed your series is to understate how much pleasure I received by following your journey. Looking forward to the next one.
Never tighten those bleed screws that hard as you did in 14:25. You're only supposed to tighten them just a tiny bit, so they don't come loose or bleed, they will otherwise become a problem. I've changed hundreds of these bleed screws in casr, for being overtightened and then rusting out. Otherwise, a great video, watched a bit fast, but im a huge fan in this v70r series. Keep up the amazing videos, youre going to go far with your vids. I'll remember these times when you're in a big shop creating beautiful cars after cars.
His tightening of everything is scary. Scary we share the road with cars like this… It’s not just himself he will kill when a critical brake or suspension fastener fails…
@@froggy0162 Froggy Dude- This guy might be green but he is not the problem- like he checks his tire pressure for instance, he puts brake pads on his brakes, he stops at stop signs, he buys new tires, he as far as I can tell is not looking at his phone when he drives, he is not geeked out on meth or whatever. Stuff like that. I am NOT afraid of this guy...
The car looks and sounds incredible and I love your production quality in this. The driving shots at the end literally look better than Volvo's own marketing material for the V70. So good!
The colors on that footage, the whole project, your channel, just pure perfection. I saw that you uploaded on my phone, and wanted to watch you on a big screen! Way to go mate! What a series!
11:45 - I'm pissed... This has become my favorite youtube series of late and have enjoyed the build a ton. It's really the first car build I've ever really watched. I've always liked cars, but didn't know much about them, but this has taught me a lot about cars and is starting to inspire me to try and tackle some of my own projects. I've only owned one car in my life for 6 years now. I own a 2008 Ford Taurus and it is obviously and old persons car, but I love it, and so do the people that ride in it. It has 200k miles on it and I keep it in really nice condtion. This series has inspired to simply just take car of my car beyond what I normally do to hopefully get another 100k miles out of it! Can't wait to see the next project!
Alex is a good guy! He brought me into the tuning scene for P2R's. We teach eacher new stuff almost everyday! If anyone deserves a shout out its diffidently him!
Cool dude. Helped me also with understanding tuning as well as another dude named Devon unless that's you. I have a pretty good base understanding of how me7 works but that guy is miles ahead.
Been wrenching on my P2VR now for about 8 years. Being in Toronto, I am so jealous of how clean and rust free the underside of your R is. Great channel, keep up the good work!
Fellow toronto person here... a whole 'nother level of clean underside. I was shocked... where's the ten minutes of cleaning off the bolts and wrestling with it to get it un seized?!?!?
I can't believe it's already over! I also can't believe how well that sounds! The coil-overs make the whole affair look so much better as well. Really suits the whole R-spec! Top shelf!
I happened to find your channel just before this project…….dont sell yourself short on your skill set! You just tackled a huge project, and did an awesome job. I worked on older stuff with my dad (like 850 Volvos) when I was growing up, your videos brought back a lot of memories even though you’re working on a newer car. Thanks for the great series!
Awesome, have you worked on T5-R too? One of the most legendary cars from its era, some say that the car had "cult reputation/cult following" because it was so nice car
21:32 - Sheesh, panning shots with THAT song I've listened thru all of these episodes. I'm happy you delivered the final product and the Lolvo haven't ended at the junkyard.
I’ve been watching this build since day one and I can definitely say that I am truly impressed and so happy to see that your project finally came together in a culmination that was completely deserved. it’s pretty impressive that this was your first project of this level of intensity, but you also made it into some incredible content, on a platform that is actually rarely built. Great job!!
The quality, tempo and presenting is absolutely on the highest level in my opinion! I love the car and the modifications to it. Watching you build that car is insanely enjoyable I'm staying till the end of this build
Loved how excited you were when everything started coming together and the cinematography towards the end was wonderful - really a satisfying ending to the project :)
I absolutely LOVE this series, I started following a while ago for photography, but cars are right up my alley as well. Love the channel, keep doing this!
The V70 has always looked phenomenal and still holds up very well. Nice to see someone have a good time with it. I might however like the 850 T-5R a tiny bit more in its delivery yellow to be one of the most badass volvos :)
Agree - your production quality & descriptions - upfront about errors made are up there with the best on TH-cam. Please keep it up. Looking forward to you finishing anw will follow your next one. Kudos!
So glad I happened to find your channel near the start of the series! It's been such a great journey watching you fix up the old Volvo. I've always loved wagons, and the old V70R's are so incredibly cool. It's so great to see an old machine like that get the love and care it deserves. Great work man.
What a great channel! You are building my dream car! Turbo, manual, awd, and wagon! This thing sounds so good too! Currently my favorite series on TH-cam right now!
Man I love this video it's so relaxing to watch. The trial & error & diagnosing is also very informative. Over 10 years ago I also had one of these (well, an S60 and not an R though but it was a turbo 5 c yl) and it's the most comfortable and reliable cruiser I had.
If your spark issue ever reoccurs you should try running bosch plugs. I had a spark issue and swapped my NGK out for new ones but the problem stayed. Put some new bosch in there and she ran amazing
I'm not but this is a huge money pit for me and I have to step away and do some real work so I can come back and take the time required to work on cars and film it!
Years ago I was heavy in the Volvo game/gang.... P80 wagons all day!!!!!! Went JDM in recent years BUT last year I got the Volvo itch again while I was looking for some Lexus parts in the junkyard and came across a P80 V70 T5 manual. Can you say super rare? I almost wanted to cry knowing that someone had scrapped such a car. Since that time last year, I've been searching for a reasonable P80 V70 T5 or V70R as my next project...... tricked suspension, Porsche brakes seamless power capable aftermarket turbo. It's crazy that just 10 to 12 years ago P80 wagons were so plentiful and everywhere, now they're rarely seen. Real talk seeing your build on this V70 R is inspirational and best of all you're in the L.A. area.
Well done completing a vision you had. So many channels don't get to this point. It's been tremendously enjoyable seeing your growth and cinematography skills improve over time.
Pro tip: If you let the tubing from the caliper into your drain bottle go all the way to to bottom of the bottle. You'll create a check valve of sorts for air. So you can bleed the brakes yourself by pumping the brakes and leaving the hose end submerged in the fluid. It will keep air from going back into the tube.
My main channel “willem verbeeck” is my full time job. I unfortunately cannot afford to spend all my time making these car videos yet but there will be more in the future :)
Those Volvo V70 just look so amazing. Beautiful timeless design in these cars. Even pretty old models still look great with their boxy functional look.
Respect for the challenge you took on with this project. Great video as well! Looking forward to the next..! I like the shows of Mike Brewer and Elvis but I think you may be next level.
Willem, if you're ever looking for chassis performance parts for the V70, look for wrecked Volvo C70s. The front and rear subframes are solidly mounted (instead of rubber mounted) to the chassis because since it's a cabriolet, they needed to make it stiffer. There is also a mid chassis stiffening cross brace available, all of it being OEM Volvo parts. Control arms are also reinforced and stiffer than those found in the V70. It's a popular modification for the V/S chassis here in Europe.
Dude, those cinematic shots were phenomenal, proper studio quality! Love the combo with your down to earth disposition and mechanical/shop shots and work! Kudos man, nice work!
Been watching the build from the beginning I love the content and the audio quality as well as visual I also love the fact that u take the time to explain the whole process to ppl who might not know a lot about car so from car guy to guy props to u mate 🍻I’m currently working on my 2002 ford f150 extended cab as well
this is one of the coolest, cleanest, and most unique builds I've seen. 10/10 content quality btw. Would rather watch this than 90% of cartubers out today.
I have never wanted a Volvo more in my life than I do right this second. This is a ridiculously good build. You gotta share this with the original owner so they can see what you turned this into.
Really fun project and the production quality is just insane! Super fun to watch especially when you own a v70 yourself. Not a v70 R tho, but the next best thing, v70 -07 Classic D5. 🇸🇪
I remember when your film photography channel was pretty small, that was about when I got into film myself. Your videos have always been a joy to watch and with this channel you've shown that you can create incredibly interesting, visually appealing and just plain cool content about any topic you want. Thanks for putting in the effort! I'm excited to see the next car
First off. Congratulations to you my friend for seeing the awesomeness in wagons. Second, dude, you should be super proud of yourself and the work you have done to transform this ride. You are exactly how I was at your age. Love this build series and all that work has earned you a badass whip. Love it dude!!
I barely know anything about cars. But this was awesome to watch! Love the chill vibes with the music and the amazing shots of the car! Just something satisfying about it all together!
Again lad. Fair play to you. You seem extremely down to earth and push your own comfort levels. You've successfully earned my respect sir! And hello from Ireland :) Enjoy it buddy!
I salute you for your efforts in prolonging the life of a safe and practical daily driver! Much better for the environment than a lot of people think! 🏆
“bro come to the car meet and i’ll flash your ecu” is some proper fast and furious shit haha
On older cars i do it too if they have good battery 😂
on my car a fellow forum member he did it remotely. I had the laptop connected to the obd port and he used teamviewer to connect to my laptop and do the coding.
This is how we did it back in the day with Hondas on Crome
Peak SoCal car culture though fr...
sounds like youre dealing drugs
No fancy shop, no super cars..floor jack and jack stands and good old fashioned work
And a bad haircut

Well he is a visual artist since years with his photography channel so no wonder he does things the right way :))
you should checkout his photography channel 🤝

Super impressive. 100% agree with nokbeen! This build is beautiful man - way to do it justice with this video 🤙🏼
Never had this level of mixed emotions before, to be both this happy and sad that this project has been completed. Absolutely unbelievable job, what a guy, what a car!
There will be a couple more videos on it :’)
The footage tracking behind the car towards the end is the best stock volvo footage i've ever seen omg

Just discovered it! Have to go to the start.👍
And I just stumbled on his channel I'm subbing and I'm binging the series
20:37 Finally someone who knows the difference between rolling twostep and antilag
Those cinematic rollers gave me chills. This channel has it all
Cool Volvo’s, good info, great camera work, and you’re great to watch.

literally chills here too, you already said it.

Shoutout to whoever shot and edited those rolling shots 🔥 they were the cherry on the cake of this "finale" episode, congrats!
Yeah it almost looked like an old Volvo commercial film

For sure, I thought "sweet, just get a new ball end for it" but instead the drill came out!
Too late now he would need to get new shifter cables because he drilled straight through them
@@Itz_Joe_Herehe got 3 cables so all he need is a new ball bolt
I was thinking this too. Even fitting it into the ball socket that was too small would’ve been better than drilling + bolt imo
Holy hell man. I'm speechless. This is your first video that I watch. Just wow! Congrats on everything. Amazing car.

this is one of the coolest, cleanest, and most unique builds I've seen. 10/10 content quality btw. Would rather watch this than 90% of cartubers out today.
Really enjoyed this, great work - I always loved this rapid Volvos!
That footage at the end had me blushing and kicking my feet. I want to get my SR to this point. Insane to see how far this channel has come.
I have never wanted a Volvo more in my life than I do right this second. This is a ridiculously good build. You gotta share this with the original owner so they can see what you turned this into.
Really fun project and the production quality is just insane! Super fun to watch especially when you own a v70 yourself. Not a v70 R tho, but the next best thing, v70 -07 Classic D5. 🇸🇪
I remember when your film photography channel was pretty small, that was about when I got into film myself. Your videos have always been a joy to watch and with this channel you've shown that you can create incredibly interesting, visually appealing and just plain cool content about any topic you want. Thanks for putting in the effort! I'm excited to see the next car
The cinematics, woooow ! I could have sworn this was a hagerty video. Congrats !!!
I rarely enjoy youtube so much but you made it great for me. Keep it up man cant wait to see more!
As a v70r owner with its fair share of issues, this is a great inspiration of what could be with my car. Car is looking and sounding great
The quality of this video is outstanding. The rolling night shots towards the end were great. Beautiful car, congrats.
First off. Congratulations to you my friend for seeing the awesomeness in wagons. Second, dude, you should be super proud of yourself and the work you have done to transform this ride. You are exactly how I was at your age. Love this build series and all that work has earned you a badass whip. Love it dude!!
20:57 "To meet up with my buddy Ryan" You got the wrong Ryan because i was not there 😎 Nice build on one of the safest vehicles to hit the road 💯💪🏾
I barely know anything about cars. But this was awesome to watch! Love the chill vibes with the music and the amazing shots of the car! Just something satisfying about it all together!
@wheelemverb you good bro? excited for the next drop.
Such a great series, beautiful camera work! Congrats on the build. Looking forward to the next one.
17:27 That sounds exactly like my tubular manifold full decat 1.9TDi dude thats crazy. Love the build man, shes a gem.
Again lad. Fair play to you. You seem extremely down to earth and push your own comfort levels. You've successfully earned my respect sir! And hello from Ireland :) Enjoy it buddy!
Congratulations on completing the project. Your filming is on point. That b-roll is 100%.
I salute you for your efforts in prolonging the life of a safe and practical daily driver! Much better for the environment than a lot of people think! 🏆
