Ah the love of old volvos! Can’t wait to see it fixed up!!

If you're going to replace the heater core, you should also replace the heater hose plastic junction fitting on the firewall. These too are plastic and are prone to breaking.

That's a beautiful colour! I have a 2003 C70 convertible T5, owned for about 4 years, its cost me an awful lot getting it back into shape but worth every penny. Biggest issue I had was the steering rack brackets snapping, very common issue on the C70 and literally impossible to find another rack (trust me I searched for months online, at breakers, specialists in Sweden, volvo etc.) So had mine removed, refurbished and put back on. Job cost me about £1500. Sometimes they can be welded in place which would be a lot cheaper however mine was also leaking hence the full refurb. Look forward to your videos!

Great video as always! Cant wait for the next Volvo 745 video :D

Such a great looking classically elegant design, great video. Sorry but I am a C70 geek and the front grill is from the pre-facelift model and the Canisto alloys were not available after 2002, still a truly stunning car!!

good video just so you know the adjustments on the windows are a nightmare on mine the steel wires snapped and volvo wanted £1500 per side to fix we bought used units which my mechanic fitted he said never again

Thanks I brought my one last week of Sept. I think they call it Magic Blue like yours. I have the Comet wheels. They are shot to bits. I'm interested to see how you recondition yours. I'm going to do mine Gold .

very nice brought same one last year @ 55k same colour. fortunately nothing wrong with it but few scratches after running over a bucket other then that paint work is great. the sad thing is im using for my work 15k a year easy i do feel like am slowly destroy the interior

I just bought one from 2000 for cheap and pick it up in 2 weeks. It has new mot and service, so I hope it runs well, otherwise I have some ideas from your video😄

Black contact adhesive from Stormsure on its way to you.

I need help with my roof dam chime ... I think it will work with not much work

This is a facelift C70, right? How many km (or miles)? Most be a lot for just £800, I guess.

Just sell it in parts, it’s worth at least 4 times what you paid for it (at least on the continent).

I own a 1995 850 T5 CD wagon and a 2000 Mk1 C70 2.3 T5 coupe in Saffron orange, Compared to the 850 the C70 interior is pretty crap TBH, Melted looking sticky door switches and wafer thin leather on the seats etc, Definately cheapened down compared to the 850 which has a high quality interior and leather, I sort of blame it on Fords cost cutting which owned Volvo in the late 1990's.
