We changed the oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, gasoline and the battery on the Volvo 850, to try to start it up for the first time in seven years. She really needed some maintenance!
- Project’s Background Story -
On February 21 ’09 our dad bought this ’96 Volvo 850 2.5L 20V estate.
He always maintained the car accordingly and had many parts replaced. Luckily, the full documentation is still with the car and only a month before passing away in December ‘11 he put on the winter tires himself.
The Volvo has a big emotional value for me personally as I drove it with him on his final journey. Seeing the car sitting still for so many years and watching nature taking over broke my heart.
Now after nine years I finally got my hands on the car and brought it back to it's home where me and my youngest brother will restore it to its former glory and make our old man proud.
We intend to make a road trip once it is restored and keep it in the family for as long as we can.
- General Information -
We intend to document the whole restoration for ourselves, for people close to us so they can follow our progression and for other people interested in restoring cars or specifically a Volvo 850.
We are new to shooting video’s and editing so please bear with us while we learn!
