Volvo Amazon 123GT walk around - one of the fastest and cleanest in U.K.

A quick tour of my Volvo Amazon 123GT. Engine is one of the most powerful normally aspirated B20 red blocks ever built. I will post up further videos of the car being tuned and running on the drag strip. Please let me know about your Amazons in the comments below 👇

I'm currently rebuilding my 1970 Amazon after a complete bare body shell strip down, (stripping out wiring, interior, glass and all panels)and can appreciate the work you've put into this car.
The main problem is remembering where everything goes!

Oh those Weber carburetors on that engine upgrades, A masterpiece jewel!💎💥🤗

Stunning restoration absolutely amazing.
I to grew up with Amazons 😍
I have a pearl white 122s replica from 1968 with genuine 123GT components. It needs restoring but is very solid. I am in the process of buying a 496861 Engine with K cam fully rebuilt.
I also have a red 1968 and green 1968 both 133352p genuine GTs both MOT need and complete but both need improvements.

Stunning! Congratulations on your renovation and upgrades.

Very nice. Looks amazing. I have always like the P1800 but I prefer the Amazon’s now. I love the body styling and the two door models are my favourite- I really like the colour of this one - looks brilliant with the black roof. I’ve a blue Amazon (1966) which is great but also recently bought a sand colour Amazon with a low 40’000 genuine mileage.

[MyCarFilm]

Just saw this video. Amazing work and skills. I have a p1800s which I bought as a just about runner....now running and driving but deciding on what to do.

Its very slow but fast enough for its suspension and steering!

I like your comment re period mods otherwise its no longer a Volvo...

I would love to have a more powerful engine but not Race engine so will check out your other videos.

Would be interested in costing of your engine am sure it was £££s

I used to own a 1917 B20 2 door torques blue, i had to let it go as parts here in South Africa is really a issue. But its a stunning car. Well done. That 123gt is a real dream built.

[suttv]

Great walk around mate. Loved watching the progress of this build. What’s next…..?

[PaulMichael-cc]

Hi. Great car. Could I ask please. What muffler at the back did you use? I have a 1968 123gt and bought it with a Simons exhaust which I do not like the sound of. I have removed the mid section resonator and wanted to know what sort of rear muffler would work well. Thanks.

[Mtn_Mig]

Gorgeous car! Would like to hear that engine sound.

[alanmatthews]

Absolutely beautiful 🤩 I’ve just bought a 123gt myself and this is very inspirational..Could I ask..what size are your wheels / offset front and back?
