Abandoned 79 Volvo 245 - lets save it...
Hi all, so I know some of you follow my Youtube Channel www.youtube.com/simspsonsclassics already but I thought I would share this project with you all.
This car was offered up on the 240 Owners facebook page and after chatting to the late owners son, I agreed to save it. They seemed keen as I have already saved an old Volvo on the channel before... So what shall I do with it? I have some ideas and I am sure they will unfold but for now here is a walk around of the car. I will try and upload some pics on here also and create a thread of the progress. https://youtu.be/4WXssUy6G_c?si=EAnU5fwLVbNCib5w Kind Regards

The sensible thing would be to strap on a turbo

One thing is for sure I will be needing to collect some parts but wow this thing is in good shape really apart from the scabby bits you can see in the recent video.

ITB's and fuel injection would be something you don't really see others doing.
If you watch Goblin works to see all the things not to do |

Totally agree with keeping the original motor. B21A non interference is fairly bullet proof.
