Remember: a Volvo is for life, not just for a challenge :)
I've just watched half an hour's worth of a bloke cleaning a car - and I loved it to bits. You have done a superb job on this old girl. Being a bit of a Volvo anorak, I'm really pleased that she has a good home.
I'm with you on the Volvo trip, awesome cars, I love them.
You've done a great job breathing new life into this car, I think you should keep it
I am a sad old git. I saw the notification for this, and was more pleased than I should have been.
Very impressed.
Yes, a shiny brick 😎. Keep this icon of brickish motoring days gone by!
Who knew, watching someone clean a Volvo would be interesting.. I must be getting old :)
Love it.
While ' detailers' are shouting and laughing ,the other 99% of car owners can relate to this level of detailing.
Nothing nicer than seeing 1scratch disappearing,and cleaning around badges (I have even broken out the cotton buds) is satisfying.
Really enjoying these Volvo episodes, as I do all of your videos. Great to see these old cars rejuvenated and kept alive in this throwaway world of ours..
Top tip, use grit guards in the bottom of the buckets and rub the mitt on them. Also try shooting the nozzle into the bucket with some shampoo, makes great suds!
Top video all the same 😊👍🏻
Suds lift dirt🌨
Cant beat coming home from work and make a fresh brew and watch a new video of an old Volvo
When my family come to visit (3 daughters) I always check their cars to see if a wash is needed. If they need a wash it's out with the power washer and if i have time maybe a bit of wax. Hate to see a dirty car. I'm glad to see the old girl finally got a bath.😄
Well done!
Another great video. This inspire me to clean up my old Volvo 245.
Good work! All that hard work sure paid off. Its come to life again 😁👍
she's a keeper.
Excellent job Matt. All your efforts have certainly paid off, the old Volvo is looking 110% better. Well done.
When it comes to polishers, grinders, and saws a bit of extra money in the beginning saves you a lot of time and frustration at the end. There's some real grot out there.
That looks fantastic. The way the cutting agent removed the marks behind the door handles was so impressive.
You’re neighbours will be happy to see the results of your hard labour!!! Utterly amazing detailing to this VOLVO!!!!
I just raised the property prices in my street!
The one I was waiting for! How satisfying is that! She looks fantastic. Thought I saw a huge scratch you’d missed and realised it was my phone screen 😄. Lovin this old Volvo.
Wow it's really a great job!! Now the 740 looks 10 times better.
Inspiration for my own Volvo project
Another great video Matt! Thanks so much 👍
I look forward to your volvo videos and enjoy them so much!
The Volvo definitely looks alot better now. A job well done Matt.
That Volvo looks fresh.... Factory Fresh.
That was an amazing transformation with the cleaning products, well done , you’ve just made it even harder for yourself to sell it when the black day comes.
Bringing back so many memories of my old C reg 740 GLE estate of the same colour. Was a solid brick and just loads of space inside. Don't forget to check the PCV system!
I can only BRAVO! what a great job you made of her, can't wait to see what the interior turns out like! Super content!
Great job Matt that volvo is a keeper sod the competition !
Funny people are saying that alot
@@furiousdriving I'll say that, too. And I don't consider myself that funny! lol :)
I dont care what people say about big old Volvos I think they are magnificent and majestic just look at this car now just shows how good the original paint was !
I'm becoming a bit jealous 🤢. What a transformation... 😎👍 "Volvos - they're boxy but they're good." Dudley Moore.
Volvo looks absolutely amazing 😍 Top work!
Hi Matt the volvo looks really good the hard work is definitely paying off bet you won't want to part with it when it's finished...
My goodness! What a fantastic job done!
Really impressed mate! Especially with behind the drivers door handle. Totally transformed it 👍🏻 the hard work will be worth it so stick at it! 😁
You have made a perfect job of your car. It has made a good change to the Volvo in this video. Look forward to watching the rest of your videos in this series.
I have no words for what you did there 😳 it just looks brand new!! Now don't forget about the interior 😁 Well done sir 👌
What a magnificent job you have done cleaning that car! So much time and effort and the car looks superb. Respect.
Well done! Makes me want to buy one of these!
Your never wasting your time on a Volvo 740 love her and she will love you back.
Something very satisfying about bringing life back to an old car...well done Sir😃👌
Its clear you have fallen for this car! Great to see life litrally being polished into the old girl!
This is one of the most satisfying videos I've ever seen...especially as I didn't have to do any of the work myself! Congrats, so worthwhile
Enjoy your videos on older cars. As I don't have access to water near my car, living in an apartment, for years I've used waterless wash/wax products on my cars and been delighted with results. I've had neighbours comment that look like new after cleaning and have given some to try. Showroom Shine and more recently Williams Waterless Wash and Wax and I've no connection with a shopping channel
A few months ago bought a W204 Mercedes saloon and looks fab when cleaned with this and satisfying fun to do.
Ive never tried the waterless, I dont trust it yet! But people say its good
Great job man. 👍👍
You absolutely nailed it !!! Its looks fantastic - WELL DONE !!!
So glad you bought the Volvo. Always loved the shape of the 740 and 760. I bought my first, a 9 year old 1999 V70 with 105,000 on it. I put another 140,000 on it and bought a 2006 V70 with 134,000 and towed my caravan from Ireland through England to France, Belgium and Holland with it at 164,000. Their values may never be anywhere near to BMWs or Mercedes's but they are actually better cars in my opinion. Parts are not expensive either. Someone is still actually driving my old 1999 one.
Great job, I love this Volvo series! 👏
The old girl looks beautiful, proving the old cliche about how you can polish a profit into a car. Take that to a Volvo owners meet and it would attract interest. I'm old enough to remember when every Sunday afternoon would feature blokes out in the garden/drive/street cleaning and polishing the motor. It is an incredibly satisfying and therapeutic activity, men need to rediscover the rewarding activity of cleaning the car. Don't be a lazy so and so, don't take it down to the local car wash, do it yourself.
You will find yourself incredibly engaged and satisfied by cleaning the old girl and making her look like the day you drove her away from the dealership/trader/private owner (delete as applicable). You won't get the same sense of satisfaction, peace, or oneness with the world from expensive BS therapeutic "remedies" out there as you will from cleaning your car. The guru has spoken. Salah!
Great video and you have done a fantastic job. It's also a testament to the original quality of the Volvo paint! My two tips would be scrap the Karcher snow foam bottle and get a far superior one for not too much money which will lay the snow foam on much, much thicker and use grit guards in your buckets which has been previously suggested :)
Park it on the high street and sit on a bench and see how many admirers it gets from the benefit of all your hard work while your having your lunch. 👌
That sounds like a good idea for a video...
Although the bumper turned out beautiful, those solutions usually only last for a week or so. You should try using a heat gun, it makes the bumper (front and rear) factory black. Go over the whole bumber and keep the nozzle of the gun real close (a bit tedious). But it can only be used on the bumpers, trim etc are ruined by the heat.
For the bumpers and black plastics I recommend Motip Bumper Black. Did it on my 940, and you never need to redo them.
Don't squeeze the rinsed sponge back into the clean rinse bucket !
Onto the floor !
I'm making a note of your equipment and techniques here. I'm working on a 2008 Chrysler 300c right now and despite it being a lot younger, the paintwork and trim is probably in a similar condition to your car. But hey, It's an American car. They have nothing on the swedes making what I like to call everyday tanks like these Volvos.
Looks great nice to see your garage is like mine who needs to find eneything when you need it people with tidy garages have got too much time on their hands 😲😷👍👌👏
When Volvo switched to water-based paint they had huge rust issues for some years especially on metallics (early 80s). This is towards the time they started to get top grips with it. My 1982 360 GLT rotted horribly, the 1988 340 was less bad, and the 1991 940 was bomb-proof.
That was so much work but really worth it. It looks great and quite a handsome car in all it's squarness too. Cheers.
Its come up so well, I was actually excited to look out and see it in the light this morning! It had water beading on it for the first time!
Excellent!
I really liked this video, thank you! It's amazing how good a car can look with some decent equipment and a bi of elbow grease.
Come up really well ! Looks so good in silver against the black bumpers and trim !👍
It is amazing what a clay bar can do even if you think it wouldn't need it. I clayed my 1986 Volvo 245 and it looked amazing afterwards. You did a cracking job on yours and hope to see more of your videos!! Keep up the fantastic work m8!
I do like a clay bar and use them quite alot - I did my daily C250 as soon as I got it and it made it look so much better the dealer could have added several hundred to the price if he had first! In this case the cutting compound was harsh enough not to worry
I love boxy Volvos especially the 240DL.... Love the 7 as well. I have a V50 (16 years old) might be a classic one day??? Love what you're doing so sub and like from me.
Brilliant! Your hard work paid off! Detailing is very hard work, and you have done is simply incredible!
The wheel trim melting reminded me that my 740GL had a binding brake (rear drivers side). It was the piston that had stuck fast. A little exercising soon it freed up and I did not need a new calliper.
The old girl looks amazing after her makeover well done, great tip on the buckets will do that now
Looks awesome 😎 I had the same polisher and it came to the same fate.
Cant believe how much better the new one is!
Nothing beats giving a car a really good seeing to - the satisfaction is immense.
Really enjoying this series, you're motivating me to do stuff to my own car!
Good effort. Testament to the enduring quality of Volvo paint.
Totally!
If you could track down a black leather interior for the right price and sort the headliner you would have a pretty cool old 740 to ride about in.
Here's me. Spent day stressing if I should go to work tomorrow, then look over to my family..thinking. .will my family or myself be alive this time next year?
I go to bed..then chill out watching a guy wash his Volvo!
Human life is amazing really isn't it!
Hope all viewers and families are safe and well tonight. We can do it folks xx
If I can stay home and play with cars its not all bad
Ride this Shining Volvo man, Cheers
Nice work mate!
That Volvo has come a long way.
I always enjoy watching your videos, you're an inspiration. :)
Really nice work! Keep it up!
I do like watching other people work.
Nice job, it looks so much better! :)
That looks amazing! Sterling job!😊
I was just about to hit the 'like' button as usual, but then I noticed the hit count is on 740. That's a bit uncanny isn't it ? haha! You've done a great job on this old Volvo and it's been very interesting following along with you here. Well done and thanks for sharing it with us.
Come up really nice looks very good you can see the difference before and after
Amazing result I love the old Volvos I had a 89 240 estate like a fool I sold it or was a cracking car and it was in fine condition with the odd blemish on wheel arch wish I still had it great video
Well done! Looks amazing!
A friend of mines father had one of these when they first came out, I think it was a peppermint silver colour, lovely car,
I've an 08 S80, and just love it.
Volvos are very underated I think.
Those who know them love them though
Awesome. And a different beanie too. Keep the vids coming!
Looks like a new car those products and microfibre cloths polishers and elbow grease have done the trick Well Done!!!
that looks stunning mate
yep, looks like its straight outta kalmar! But i dont know whats worse, dogs on the boot lid, or boiling hot mugs of tea!
Tea was pre polish, that wont happen now!
It’s like a different car! Wow awesome work love that old Swedish brick 🧱
Looks fantastic, nice to see all coming together. I was hoping to clean up my car this week, I think I need to invest in a machine polisher now!
That makes life so much easier! I grabbed this one as I like Draper's stuff and it was in stock for not too much to grab at 5.55pm - amzn.to/2wduxV6
Looks fantastic now but twice as much work in it as an ordinary car. Old cars that have survived like this deserve pampering.
That is absolutely stunning, I'm so jealous
Maybe that bent bumper can be saved now that you made it shine, there's a metal beam underneath the plastic that I think is bent out of shape and holds the plastic shell bent too. It shouldn't be too hard to straighten the metal and thus make it straight again. Earlier Volvo had a kind of shockabsorbers as mountingpoints, later on I think those where swapped to metal beams with crumplingzones. I wonder what type your 740 has?
Im not sure, I need to figure out how it comes off so I can sort it out, bt as you say should be just a bent bit of metal in there
Love watching these videos, reminds me that I'm going to look at (and probably buying) another 740 on Friday!
I enjoyed shining your 740 vicariously almost as much as you did in actuality! :)
Nice job👍 its come up well, looks almost like a new one.
Hi yall ! Congratulations for the great job you did on this fantastic Swede. I suggest that , provided you want to keep it, you give her a cute Swedish name. How about Ingrid?
Did you think it over, my friend?
Great result! Thought it looked better in the artificial light as opposed to the natural light. Has inspired me to detail my 06 W 203 (C 230) Enjoy this channel; as well as Carwow & Doug Demuro. Keep up the good, interesting work!
I was not a fan of a volvos but daam watched every episode about 740, and now I constantly thinking of buying one of thouse RWD volvos if I find good one 740 or 940 you gave inspiration
Your Volvo looks awesome! At some point I want to tackle the paint on my old Peugeot 306 2.0 XSi Ph2 (1999), which I bought used in late 2016. I'd like a bit of advice on using rotating polisher tools on flaking clear coat, which has continued to flake a lot since I got it, along with some of my bit too aggressive Karchering with water, which possibly went through the primer on the bonnet, so that might be rusting a little now. However despite all this I can see the paint is good quality, and if anything like my first 306 which had "solid paint" then it will look half decent once cut and polished.
If you've got flaking clear coat its better to get very fine wet and dry (1200, and work to 2000 grit) and rub it back to a smooth edge, polish or cut the surrounding paint and re-lacquer it
@@furiousdriving Great that is what I originally thought, but wanted to check first. By the way you are the only TH-camr to respond to that query, that I have asked a few times from other TH-cam content creators. There is one channel that I will not name, from a friendly bloke that specialises in this and he answered all my questions except this one. I was starting to think I had asked a forbidden question lol
What an amazing transformation!
Superb work. Looks like new. Make me want to get to work on my 2007 XC90!
There are three things you can do with any older car to make it look a lot better, and often neglected. Wheels, Glass, Number Plates. I almost always change the number plates for nice new ones (same number!) and it can make a massive difference to the overall appearance of a car. Wheels and Glass are more obvious. Also, for the finishing touches badges and lenses.. I have seen a cars appearance spoiled by faded badges and turn lenses. Serious Volvo fans replace the badge on the front with prancing moose... well at least the ones with a sense of humour.
I like new plates they do make it look fresh, but these are the original dealer plates so in this case Id like to keep them
