- Fighting the classic car rust battle by undercoating a couple of 1980's Volvo 740s with Fluid Film, a lanolin based rust prevention. We talk about some of the more common rust spots on these cars and then get to under sealing with a spray gun and air compressor, across the floor pans, inside the frame and sills and everywhere else.

Haha thanks for the shout out mate 👍 😃
Very welcome! Thanks for the tips and tricks 👍
not too far from the big 5k my man :D
Yeah I noticed that!
Getting there!!
@@Involvod DInt know you could get a Valet for ya Partrdige these days , Shit I must be getting old or somat !
The Involvo'd sticker is proudly in place on the '88 GLT. Thanks so much!
No, thank you 😃 It's a total honour!
Oh yea! I love sketch back parking lot car work!
It's where the magic happens! 😂
@@Involvod ah yes. The sketchy back parking lot magic. 😂
Music reminded of certain films from the 70/80s
Enjoyed my trip to the dark side of Berlin Sledge. Always enjoy your videos even when I don't fully understand them.
Thanks!
You are a HERO!!
Thanks mate!
Once I found out about Fluid film from the Minivan Fan CLUB? I'm and Addict!
Man this stuff works AMAZING!
It's great!!
Nice to see thev740 wagon is being protected from rust, also I didn*t notice that there are no flowers on the car
That's a different one 😃
Guys I think I just found the perfect spot for the biyearly involvo’d™️ international meetup.
Haha, I didn't think about that!!
I always get out the pink string vest when I'm undersealing... it's the only way 😂 Great video, job worth doing every year.!
Sounds like Berlin is the place for you baby!
Thanks!
Oh wow, way too kind, I don't know what to say! Thank you so much!!
@@Involvod That ought to buy a FEW gallons of gas! Lol
It was cool to see the streets of Berlin! I give you props for being able to drive in large cities like that. I'm so used to country and rural town driving that big congested cities tend to stress me out. 🤣
I have heard that this stuff is incredible. I really should try it out before this winter to prevent my cars from rotting out underneath!
Great action shots too! It honestly looks kinda fun to do this!
I get super stressed mate, never been able to get used to it! Definitely try it out mate, it's great to keep the salt from just chewing straight through the metal
I have never seen south main auto have a20l can of fluid film. Nice
I thought he'd just buy the big barrels the amount he must go through!
Good vid again. Like your content and the big Volvo's.
And also the different scenes of Berlin!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Great stuff 👍
Cheers!
great channel lovely background music as well cheers
Thanks, glad you're enjoying it!
always good to watch the nozzle going in 😂😂👍👍
Thanks for sharing this video
Thanks for watching!
Good dags. D'ya like dags? Awesome video again! Was waiting for it to upload xD
🤣 Thanks mate I appreciate it!
Great video fella! Well worth doing too!
Thanks buddy!
Good to have protection against future rust. I have cruise control on my 1988 745 and it's original, but I don't use it very often.
Ah good to know it was an option on those!
I’m thinking of doing the same thing with my Volvo too.
It's definitely worth it if you want to keep it! I'm in the process of undercoating the 240 with something that makes it a little bit nicer to work under the car afterwards (Owatrol) video on that coming soon!
Great job - hopefully keeps the rust at bay for many years! Those cruise controls were sold in the 80's and 90's - I couldn't afford one so tried using one from a scrap yard but never got it working, thank god - looking back it wouldn't have had much in the way of safety!!!
Thanks mate! Yeah I wouldn't have much faith in them!
Hey Sledge, great job sealing up the frame and bottom of Elsa and ur friend has s a nice brick too, by the way I put my Involvo'd stickers on my Volvo and they price went up!😂
Haha, not to mention the extra BHP!
Great vid! Nice being driven through Berlin. Good thing about the lanolin-based stuff, it's pretty harmless so no worries about spilling it.
Rust. A big issue. So I heard anyway.
Yeah exactly, it was dripping for days after, but didn't feel bad about it like I would have with using motor oil 😬
Cruise control - not just on the 760! My 89 740GL has factory cruise control and it's still funtioning!
Oh nice! And good to know!
Yes, cruise control was quite common on the American/Canadian market 740's - less common in other markets.
Thanks for the video! You got some cool places in Berlin! :D. Thanks for showing how it's done. Need to apply it on my crusty wagon asap! ;). This is GOLDEN! :D
Thanks mate! Definitely, even a couple of spray cans for the worst parts, just to keep it from getting serious!
Good to se you keeping these old bricks on the road can't go wrong with a Volvo
Thanks!
@@Involvod 240 850 740 and 940 Volvo's will always have a special place in my heart especially the 740 as when working with my uncle we had both 740 and 940 but the 740 was most used thing never broke down just wouldn't die all we ever done was breaks and exhaust normal minor stuff then the 850 glt was a weekend car for us but 240 well that was the one Volvo I owned just to my self was quite an early one I think 88 it had corvette wheels on with spacers and I did lower the car nothing to bad tho still very practical and usable I brought it of a local doctor who owned the car from new lots of happy memories with that car unfortunately driving is long behind me for the time being unfortunately my mum has termnal cancer so money is focused on making her life eiser hopefully I can get my self another some day before they become to much to offord
@@jamieeedden777 thanks for sharing man, sorry to hear about your mom. Sounds like you've got some experience with these cars, I saw a 240 with corvette wheels the other day, they look pretty good!
@@Involvod wheels cost more than the car with tyres I spent alot of money on the car people said I was wasting my time as the car was automatic but that diddnt bother me and I'd like to think I do my first engine swap was done on a Volvo as well as the first car I drove was a 740gle and thankyou the sad thing is she is only 46 as had me at 20 the family has come to terms with the fact we will loose her some time soon so making what life she has left good she said she wants me to get back on the road and enjoy my life so hopefully some day a new Volvo I'd like 240 again but any pre 90.s Volvo would be good then a big driving holiday Mabey out of the UK if possible
@@jamieeedden777 autos definitely have their place, I really enjoy that Elsa is an auto. Keep up the positive outlook mate, a road trip out of the UK sounds like a sterling idea, they drive like shite over here on the continent but it's a beautiful place 👍
I must look out for that stuff. I have used Waxoyl and a couple of other wax type products but they tend to flake off the outer surfaces.
I heard mixed things about Waxoyl, to be honest I've never heard a bad thing about Fluid Film!
Have you ever tried chainsaw bar oil? I haven’t came across anything better than this . You can also thin it up with diesel or acetone for cavities.
I was actually going to try it on the 240, but then I got recommended Owatrol, which I've applied to the 240 and I'm really happy with it so far, video to come on that in the next week or 2 hopefully!
I be spraying mine with wd40 twice a year,less messy and rust free 😊
Nice! I always thought it wouldn't last long enough, but Fluid Film is a twice a year ordeal too!
WD40 is worthless on it's own for protecting against rust, sorry. It's better used for displacing the water in there before applying a rust protectant. Fluid film is great, however and I can really recommend it
I will be in Denver USA in July and would like to purchase volvo wagon either 745 or 965 model. Please let me know the price and whether easy to get them in Denver. Many thanks in advance.
Poor Berliner who still thinks Minis are fun , Holy shit what a misinformed soul .
Although the Bikers taste isn't much better apart from his brand of leathers.
Loving the 70's incidental softcore por* tunes lol XD
Use a cheater bar to get better torque human exertion without too much HUMAN effort!
