What is Patreon If you have never heard of Patreon here is a quick explanation...

• Our full library of how-to technical videos is still on YouTube, some of which are still free public access
• Patreon allows us to run a membership service to access all of our library
• For a small monthly fee you get access to all our videos
• and if you join the top the 2 levels you also get One-on-One technical advice by email.
• By supporting us in Patreon you will be allowing us to maintain and improve our video & editing hardware, and also to respond to your topic requests actively

We are excited about the move, it's been a lot of work, but we hope we can continue to support Classic Volvo owners with our videos, and Patreon will allow you to support us.
