In this episode of The Volvo Rescue, the 1962 Volvo Amazon restoration project named "Bruce" gets a look-over to see how a restored Volvo ages one year and 1,500 miles later. Truly, it is not a lot of wear and tear, but some pressing issues do need to be addressed and my 1-year anniversary of getting the car roadworthy for SLOrolling in 2019 seems like a great time to reflect and regroup. Next episode is the mounting of the front end bits, from mud flaps to grilles and headlights. 👍

Volvo Amazon has been my dream car for the last 15 years. This is beautiful.

@enriquelopez9124 Год назад

Both Bruce & Genevieve look awesome, Bruce looks good even without the minors details.

@Firebrand55 Год назад

I owned two 122s's. I swapped an engine between them....simplicity; ( I was younger then! )....weak point was the wings and box mounting; prone to corrosion....but....I got a wing from a scrapyard cheaply, sprayed it, undid 7 bolts holding the rusted wing and replaced it..simple.....later they made plastic wings as replacement....great cars; always looked a cut above others....even today they reek class. I commend your knowledge and efforts; well done!

@VolvoswedenSe 3 года назад

Very nice looking old Volvo. Thx for showing us Volvo fanatics this

@f0rrestdump588 3 года назад

Haha it is funny to hear you say the swedish words for Ljus, Vindrutetorkare och Fläkt ;) I had to listen to it a few times. I'll keep my eyes open for those chrome bezels. It's fun to follow along on your Volvo adventures. :)

@yves2348 3 года назад

I have a p1800S 1969. Will start restoration this year. The incredible is one can still buy everything new. Even upholstery, carpets, dash covers, door panels etc etc the list is endless. Well... not endless but close :)

@declanburke4146 Год назад

Nice video, lovely car and great attention to detail! I think Brookhouse Volvos (not Brookstone) in the UK sell the rubber seal to sit behind your rear quarters now....

@juanosorio 3 года назад

My first car was a 65 122s. I sure miss that car. Missed it so much I just bought a 92 240. I started watching a bunch of 240 repair videos and of all of them I think I like your content the best. Keep it up and welcome to California.

@tonihallqvist4154 3 года назад

Great job.. Mi grandfather had one at The 70s.. Keep up The Volvo rescue.. Gretings from sweden🤟🤟

@Sunedosa 3 года назад

As a proud Swede i love your channel, this car was manufactured before i was born but Volvo for us born in the 60's and 70's was a part of our dna. There was Volvo's everywhere and basicly everyone i knew had a Volvo as their first car, they were cheap durable and responded pretty well to tuning. My mother remarried and the new guy had a pretty well maintained 68 Amazon 123 GT that was the fastest car i had been in at 13 years old with its "mighty" 115HP B18 engine xD. He sold it 6 years ago and bought a more modern 900 series. Volvo's stir up a huge amount of memories, it's like a key to a ton of experiences i had while growing up with friends, rally cars , girlfriends. party's etc. Thanks for still flying the colors David :-) The car looks great !

@DavidBello 3 года назад

This is the kind of memory and story that I like about making my videos. Thanks for watching 😁🇸🇪

@timmoore7644 3 года назад

Putting on anti ping axle bolts this am, inspired by your S60 R video the other day. Wonderful videos my Volvo friend, I really enjoy your enthusiasm. My first Volvo was a '64 544 sport back in 1969. I bought it for $150, the owner thought it had a major front end problem. The solution was a $4 wheel bearing....loved that car, wish I still had it!

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Tim Moore that's great! Thanks for watching and good luck on the R 😁👍

@JstGdNews 3 года назад

Man, I need that kind of good luck, I spent way too much on a vintage that o found is not so hot. But you guys got me into looking out for a dusty!!

@gambanteinodal1246 3 года назад

Beautiful! 😍

@lowreedman 3 года назад

Love the update. Bruce is still looking great and by most accounts looks to be holding up fairly well. We all have gotten used to new cars adn how they are but these little leaks and other bits are just normal-ish maintenance on cars from this era. Great work. Looking forward to Jenny's videos and the Alfa looks interesting.

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Thanks, Steve. It's been a long journey since you saw Arthur in Santa Monica those years ago!

@lowreedman 3 года назад

@@DavidBello I hear you. Love to catch up again sometime. My son rolled the wagon a few years ago. :( He was thankfully unhurt. (it was a Volvo after all) I am in Phoenix now. Love to catch up sometime if you breeze through here in your travels. Cheers.

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Steve White I’m sorry to hear about the event but glad for his safety. I’ll be sure to reach out when I trek through the area again 😎

@jacquespoirier9071 3 года назад

a very well built car very well restored, some details to finish but the car worth it. a very good job.

@kellypaws 3 года назад

Okay, wasn't expecting a Vermeer reference.

@bh2236 3 года назад

Beautiful!

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Thank you 😺

@carlseiler6441 3 года назад

@JstGdNews 3 года назад

Love the videos. You're tireless! I'm on the hunt for a vented oil fill cap, like the one on your b20, taking a cue from the Yoshifab pcv catch can set up. Don't wanna pay IPD price at 40 bucks tho! Might you have an extra? I'm checking around the shops here in Portland Oregon. I know there's one not being used somewhere!

@Low760 3 года назад

The stainless trim clips from the eBay seller in Greece are very good

@ahlis11 3 года назад

Fan vilken fin bil du har!!!!! in swe. In eng. Nice car you have !!!!

@shanemickelsen1143 3 года назад

I really enjoy your videos. I have two 67 Volvo’s one wagon and one two door sitting in Montana that need a good home. Let me know if you or someone you know could use them. Thank you.

@eddisc4205 3 года назад

curious why you didn't go with the up-dated seats w/head restraints? (ala the seatbelts)

@kieranmasterton 2 года назад

Loving that interior. May I ask which red colour code that is? Brookhouse and VP AP have a number of different red interior options and the colour of Bruce’s interior is exactly what I’m after.

@ryanbrockett1899 3 года назад

I have one just like this one are they hard to get parts for

@ralfgottfridhansson3127 3 года назад

Put in fan shroud it will make the fan more effective (draw more air true the radiator)

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Great idea!

@chikitabowow 3 года назад

There are so many people who's said that the headliner is an absolute nightmare to fix/install, which makes me even more thankful that the headliner was really good in my Amazon when i bought it

@DavidBello 3 года назад

I have a friend who had good luck with his 544 install which looked completely doable and similar in design. Thankfully this is not the glue-in type that needs the front and rear glass removed. The shop had some confusion about the rods and they had to let it stretch over a few days. Either that's normal or their excuses for why it took too long to install. I stopped by almost every day so the actual install was about 3 days of work for them. Their labor was so affordably priced that I couldn't justify doing it myself and potentially messing up.

@robertmagee5523 3 года назад

Brookstone..I think you mean Brookhouse Volvo...nice car btw.

@EnriqueLopez-hb5jn 3 года назад

Bruce looks amazing for a restored car, also want to know how is Genevieve

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Check this video out for Gen: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T6zvX7rTWUM.html

@Garrett053 3 года назад

The key in the lock may come out if you take a tig weld rod and hold against the key piece, ground the ign lock housing, and tap the other end of the weld rod to positive on a 12v battery. If the rod welds to the key you can pull it out. Worth a try maybe?

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Ivar Hoff oh no there’s just no key at all. I’ve heard this trick but with super glue and a small flat screwdriver

@Mingus8 3 года назад

The man who designed the Amazon at Volvo is Jan Wilsgaard..

@MrTwinkie797 3 года назад

That is a beautiful car! Great job :D and "Ljus" is pronounced "jus" :)

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Suppose I can't trust the Google robot to be entirely accurate 😅

@jussi-tapioroininen3924 3 года назад

I would love to swap some swede emblems to american/old Amazon parts! Maybe you have an extra pair of older Amazon 2dr indoor upper door emblems with the padding to swap for? I know it sounds weird, but I assure you I'm more drunk that I sound like

@lirre76 3 года назад

If you visit tradera.se there’s a auction on the ”ljus” button + many more Amazon parts ;)

@keithmattioli115 3 года назад

Where did you get the aluminum re-anodized? I'm redoing a 1969 Mercedes with some anodized aluminum that could use some help.

@DavidBello 3 года назад

King of Trim in Reseda, CA. Truly excellent customer service and great work. We had them do both cars chrome, aluminum and some zinc plating

@keithmattioli115 3 года назад

Thank you. I'll have to check them out. An Amazon passed me while I headed to work this morning. Rarely see those on the road here.

@airtonylee 3 года назад

Those p clamps are actually called Adele claps but I love these cars you build them beautifully. What do you do with the rebuilt cars? Just for hobby or what?

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Anthony Lee thank you it is mostly a hobby 😁 Bruce is mine and Genevieve has her own home. They're flatmates, if you will lol

@howesitgoin739 3 года назад

Let us know now your in california what car shows you'll be attending. I got a pair of 164s I'd l appreciate your thoughts on. Great job on the 122s.

@DavidBello 3 года назад

It would be really cool to experience one of those. I've only seen them at junkyards and parked at shows

@howesitgoin739 3 года назад

My first car was the 122. It's crazy to see what Volvo did between 67 and 75. You should find the differences between my 70 164 and 75 164e. Let me know post smoke and lock down...lol... The amount of running 164 in Fresno are in my garage. Lol 🤣

@59vovo 3 года назад

what is the purple car under the covers?

@David.Colvin 3 года назад

What paint,crinkle finish do you use on the speedo bezel?

@DavidBello 3 года назад

Rustoleum instant galvanising grey I think it is called. Or sometimes you can just paint over the faded old paint and it lays similarly. Others have used a wrinkle or hammer finish paint and then sprayed grey over it
