Resurrecting a Wrecked Volvo XC70 | Overland Rig Build

Описание: Picking up a crashed and abandoned 2005 Volvo XC70 AWD wagon, I rebuild it from the ground up into a capable overland rig.
From rusted fuel filters and mismatched tires to new struts, brakes, and hood, follow the DIY process and first impressions of this Swedish adventure wagon.

🛠️ What I Replaced:

Windshield

All four struts

Brakes and rotors

Exhaust system

Used hood, fender, headlights

General maintenance items.
This video is part of my ongoing Time to Xplore journey — riding, building, and adapting for long-distance travel, recovery, and simple adventure.
