Default Time lapse engine removal (3.2l)

Hi all,

just had a little fun making a video whilst removing the engine and transmission of my X300...

No sound but busy little me


And no, I don't move that speed all the time

Even though it doesn't make a sound, I didn't swear one time! All nuts and bolts came undone with ease - even though they are 20 years old! My last Volvo - from 2007 - had more rusty screws!

I would have had about 10 cups of tea doing that. Or did you edit them out?

Cool. Thanks for sharing. So, how long did it take after all?
And what is the plan now?
