ROTTING 70s Lincoln Continental Sitting 30 Years WILL IT RUN? - NNKH

hey you guys welcome to another episode of jalopy junkers we are going back to a lot that you might remember the angry guy in [Applause] Philly I mean you're going to hit this but no what that you have per to pull that out I'm leaving have a nice day aome oh come on you got to be kidding these neighbors are pissed you got it you got it cuz there is apparently a Lincoln that they need and want removed Gates unlocked this time at that now you remember this was completely full of cars before and trees had grown up around them somebody was using it as a storage lot for a long time there actually used to be a a building here a factory that collapsed and then guy removed it and then caed it kind of as his own little pad to park cars and got went and then I guess didn't pay the taxes for for a long time and another guy came and acquired the property through a legal Manor and then there's this other property attached to it that he has now Acquired and oh my gosh this must be the Lincoln looks like late 7s Continental I guess uh don't know a lot about these I can see it's missing the hood ornament but wow I mean it looks complete that's cool and then we got an old Mercedes over here take a look at oh yeah that's that's all there and what is this little station wagon H looks foreign Maybe Volvo I don't not sure let's take a look inside of this one oh yeah it is a Volvo look at that the floor is completely gone and this is probably just scrap but you know man how long have these been here this is no joke oh cast iron sink look at that that's not a steel one either this is actually really nice let's see see if he wants to jump this I'll take this today use that for something when I get a bigger bigger shop you know you got these roof tiles that's PR nice pile of paint cans that have all rusted through and let's get closer to the back of that lincol since you know I mean that's what this video is supposed to be about get some from foam panels 4x8 these have been sitting outside forever and you could see things chewing on them for nesting materials but those are really good I you could insulate a cabin with that or what have you a nice thing about winter time I don't have to worry so much about about bees and wasps look at the back of this so we're actually we're in the germant town section of Philly and it's a really neat area that has all sorts of beautiful buildings but obviously this one completely neglected for a very long time but the it's got good bones I mean look at that that stone walls and brick walls they are holding nice and stout and let's get back over here oh it's one of those uh saw hor stands you guys remember these all the wood got R than termite infested but the steel still holding up Dam trunk lid deck lid is R out pretty good look at the key slot you can see well the stainless is still good but that's been is sitting I mean these are these are signs of like sometimes people say in the the comments they're like oh this video is completely staged like on the cat 977 they said that I don't know who would would do spend their time to try to Stage a vehicle and clearly you could never stage something of this magnitude I I mean this is hey how are you man I stopped for a minute I was talking to that guy cuz I saw him just kind of scratching his head looking at me explain the situation it's a town car all right get these this looks like asbest big thick panel of it and these pieces of slate these are really nice actually okay is it going to be un locked no oh I can see it in there it's not unlocked darn yeah no keys no title for this just some paperwork saying to get the heck out of here maybe not locked over on the passenger but it's not doing anything for us surprised this roof is not rotted all the way through wonder if on the edge it is cuz it's been capturing everything under there I mean surprisingly it's not there's the original paint nice actually who knows if it's original but probably I don't even know they painted underneath these right right let's get in the attack plan here this is going to be we're going to have to come back with the trailer and coming in this entrance is just not really an option with the trailer but luckily we have plenty of room to turn around I mean ideally he would get all this junk moved first that make it a lot easier like especially I could get right in front of it Jack knif trailer or even just get the tundra and winch it straight forward but I am not driving on this pile of rubbish and here's the quick attack plan for today going to try to winch it out not too worried about damaging the body or anything and you know that's pretty heavy car we're on the leaves here so we got the tree in case we want to hook up the back to that what up mess somebody had a hoarding collection pile here a lot of stuff was good but now that's a little bit better now we can tug her over can't find my chains in there pile mess of a truck so do a basket this should be all right I got one snatch block and we'll see if she budges [Applause] y [Applause] I just took a slip and almost ate it on this piece of wet plywood covered in leaves look at that it's good until they slip out did even have to hook the tundra up to the tree think that wet concrete and the leaves really helped this out and that was straight 100% Duty on this bad lands pretty decent little winch especially considering it was 10 ft underwater in the Delaware River and still off operating of course I took it apart and cleaned everything but you know one thing I always do on this winch now is I leave it on disengaged because especially using the wireless remote like I just don't trust the solenoid in here could stick and just you know rip the bumper off or keep going and burn the Wich up I used to actually disconnect it from the battery but now I figure you know as long as it's disengaged here then good to go in case it gets stuck on cuz I've had it I've had the the remotes act up a couple times where they don't shut off exactly what I want them to you know and I'm sure that's common sense with winches to do that but for me uh you know I just started doing it recently see got to get this truck reorganized I'm thinking remove the rear seats and fully fully redo it I just that's going to be a New Year resolution we're in January now so I should probably get on that let's tug her down into position with the kinetic rope who knows we might not even have to tug it now here's just been the driver rear passenger front I'm going to hit the air Locker though and see if that's up anything and mostly to verify it still works since I don't use it very often definitely working cuz I felt the truck shifting sideways had a little bit more power but not quite enough we're going to need that kinetic energy and that ought to do it I got this little hump back to trailer right up to it that's not a route and yeah uh got to run to another thing to do right now checking out a property and then I supposed to come back tonight or tomorrow at least now we know what we're dealing with we're all set up I I dealt with the neighbor too he was kind of pissed off at for a second there it seemed but once I explained the situation and then I had to recall the guy I was dealing with cuz apparently this property is still in acquisition stages I suppose you'd call it the property line was right here so everything there had to had to go is part of this one and then you know this place this is ah yeah it almost looks like the wall it's buckling out a little bit I don't think there's too much holding it together as he was saying he was told by his this guy that maybe the termites holding the hands are the only thing holding this building together I would actually love to take a look inside but well it's open I don't think it's very safe to to go in here though oh wow nothing there look at this it's probably from the 1800s you know basement or no actually no it's just a cross space under there whoa what is this over here is that an old drill press yeah there's no basement down there we just got a couple feet what is that noise there's an old uh bandol I guess Hutchinson Manufacturing Company Northtown Pennsylvania that belt just broke from from sitting here look at that motor is locked up it's just the water leaking but I don't see it going anywhere maybe it's just water rushing past the pipe or something I don't know wonder if that's his bestest too or something it's like is there a picture here thought that was a bell for a second thatd be gone an old bronze Bell I got the bestest tiles floor watch your step these are like 2x 12 2x 14 under the floor there the joists oh there's a basement in this section of the building side of it oh it's just Low cross space for utilities wow look at that old furnace boiler steam boiler a water heater look at this thing wow yeah they not my to this up though I mean you can see yeah it's uh don't disturb anything essentially and don't come here during the snow or the rain and cross space beneath the stairs and old paint peeling wow yes so these videos you know they kind of turn into a little bit of everything should be wearing a dust mask in here I if you're doing this kind of stuff all the time you better or just don't disturb it you can see there was a drop ceiling like 2 feet in between and this giant fluorescent looks like out of a factory fire Place some Automotive Parts gears and bell housing so this guy was a Motorhead now this car is out back guess this is the stairs upstairs the stairs upstairs whoa this is beautiful imagine just turn back to clock guys always I'll put time stamps in I'll have to make a note of that look how close it is to the building next to it too I wonder if when this was built maybe there was nothing there and they had a beautiful view out then they put this brick building next to it that would be my guess because it's uh this is definitely 1800s or I don't know but all Stone construction and actually I think this building is savable he said no way but if you go through this and see some somebody was coming in and sister and stuff up a second story fireplace whoa yes old cast iron claw foot tub that thing's a [Music] be highways 500 lb water heater just sitting on a steel milk crate he's looking back over my truck in the yard and I guess let's check out the third story what the heck we're this far right how could you not I mean everything honestly feels pretty sturdy look bad from the outside but yeah this was definitely you put in after and that must have sucked unless I guess if this was your bedroom it' be pretty cool just climb out your window and hang out there beautiful view even the Roof Systems holding up really good look that this newer plywood too so somebody you know they were trying to keep this thing going good storage too all right well I guess that wraps this little side tour up wait wait a second it's always okay yeah that's it and big big crack in them all there that uh wraps this one up let's let's get out of here in one piece suppose I did forget to mention this mg sitting here at the top down how did they leave the top down it's not even they get rided through they just left it that way so that might be something in the future along with those two so was going to go pick the car up next day but we got a little snowstorm rolling in so Gus let's go check on mommy she's uh out there working on the Mustang he doesn't want to come out in the snow good boy way let's go how you make it out yeah I didn't get very far I'm just trying to figure out how to get the back seats out oh I can tell you that Jen's doing a video on this mustang some some TLC and such oh yeah it's probably not ideal weather to go drive down there but checking out the the tarp system I added another little section and that's keeping the snow out of the carport as used to just blow all in are you a snow doggy who was hiding under the car Mr Turbo hey baby I got a little surprise for you little Camp St for to stay warm okay we are back and not going to be able to pull in with these cars here but she'll be able to back up that the problem here is as you come in you got to come over this way but there's just nowhere to really maneuver your truck in that alley and you have this big block wall here [Music] on we got a roller I see part that problem we're bringing a piece of plywood with [Music] us oh it's wedged under the differential ging it the old bumper test but we got a couple visitors no that doesn't belong to he said he listen showed me all the paperwork on it so all right so they were flipping that on me first one guy's an attorney said drop the car right now I put got to give them the GU number that's what he thought originally too but apparently he said the property lines on the edge of this build that's what he said so again there's just not value in that car man it's not yeah yeah I'm not trying to be difficult man uh I'm Chris by the way I'm Chris as well okay nice to meet you okay that uh started crazy and smoothed out bumper Jack time see if the bumper Rifts [Music] off [Music] boy yeah there it is [Music] oops this is a bad handle design by DeWalt fills up with water it's frozen [Music] [Applause] yeah I'm pulling out of here I'm in the same situation he was definitely can't pull a left turn and we'll have to go right and it's still a little bit tight but that's a one way with traffic coming down it that's a one way too hopefully I don't have to back down this whole road we we'll make it that's actually what he should have done when he left but all right [Music] he get her cleaned up with touch here didn't get this in the garage last night CU we got a little bit of snow and Jen wanted some help with her Mustang on the lift so now let's do that get this cleaned off get her in and assess [Music] [Music] well I did the right thing put her up in there let it dry off a little bit and you know it's a big ask for this asymmetric to be on here backwards so I did go ahead and hit up Harbor Freight for some of these 2ton post Jacks it's really nice with those on there I mean you can't rock this thing at all super sturdy if you're working underneath but uh let's let's take a look around you know obviously the tires are all shot and square but they do spin and underneath we can see the radiator support is pretty Rusty actually completely gone so that's going to be a problem along with the condenser support too that's that's just all routed out we oh this side's locked up okay now based on the pictures I was looking at this is a 77 to 79 Lincoln and it's either got the big 460 or a 400 hopefully it's the 460 you know um oh man look at those belts I mean you can tell that has not been spun over in quite some time uh I'm going to have to definitely get that fan sh out of the way before we go rotating it over oil filter's a little crusty but no rust holes in it yet let's just keep on going obviously no leaks unless all the oil's already leaked out but it's been sitting here and all the water's dried up okay yeah it's pretty pretty damp I'm sure the trans is probably empty but uh Factory caly converters get the Ford emblem on there and those are probably wasting money obviously rust holes in the floor I mean this is I almost am afraid to go go in in this car because of how it's going to smell and the amount of mosquitoes that they're probably back to life now you could see this was undercoated and that actually you know that did a good job on it like considering this was sunk in the ground yeah everybody says that the undercoating causes more rust but as you can see it uh yes it was peeling away in certain areas but it did a good job protecting and the frame not undercoated but that he nice has parking brake cables ripped we got the Ford 9in rear how about it little bit of leak from the pinion seal but that I could probably throw up maybe get some coin for if if this ends up being a parts mobile and it's very nice that the the drum brakes are not locked up on either side the gas tank strap rusted through leak in oh that's not even a drop that's just turned into like some crusty stuff this one's probably about to rip off too oh and it feels like that's full of something there that muffler we had ripped off um back of the frame you know pretty solid look at that mount right there that's decent and a far back a little bit little bit more Rusty little bit that was sunk in the ground now got the air shocks in the back very crusty brake lines probably have good sound cuz we do still have one muffler on there well that's all I need to see let's uh let's pop the [Applause] hood the hood Pop's going to be in here and oh boy that is terrible looking and we got these windows cleaned off it's it's not good got Wing window or is that a roll down Wing window or a fake Wing

come on I know it's not frozen since it's been sitting in the garage here how about a piece of rope do a slipnot yeah I like that oh not might be a little fat to get in the door though now get in there oh yeah that's going to be nice Center up tight here we go there it is oh watch some Critters come running that one out all right oh that's bad it smells like an old musty moldy basement house that's been sitting in a forest for 20 years yeah we're going to drop the ozone generator in here before we do anything else of course that's not going to want to pull e either gosh darn it yeah this was a really humid environment for a while not much saving to do on this car guys but you know we're still going to give it a valiant effort right eek scking up the whole garage door operates nice though there it goes some Vice scrips just to hold it in the out position I mean most of the time when a hood doesn't pop you can just give a little hit on the hood but uh that's not going to work in this case and boy this smell kind of brings me back to my childhood it uh reminds me of one of my friends basements smelt just like this actually oh man sure I'm getting all sorts of nasty stuff right now quadrasonic tape deck yes the clock stopped at 50:3 and 20 seconds it shows a seconds on there that's pretty cool got the electronic antenna how many miles we have 42,000 mil I'm probably 142 but you know no tears in the seats actually so oh yeah a couple here really stinks with the the mice that get in you know actually for all I know this this didn't have any mice in it because this mice it might have just uh fell down from from sitting forever and then everything you know I had a bunch of mildew and such under there cuz I don't I don't smell Mouse turs I mean at First Look I was thinking definitely but there let's let's just see what's under the hood o Rusty don't bend the hood now got to pull forward and up and maybe hit it with some lube all right okay Jesus this thing is terrible yes there were a few Critters living under the hood they got this bundled up real nice super toasty oh that looks like a pretty big engine and looking over at the label sometimes these don't have the engine size on them on older cars but we have got the yes engine family 460 7.5 L heck yeah so this isn't a complete waste of time looks like an oil filter on there ehy oh we will I'm surprised that's coming right off look at that yeah you never know lots of good signs no critters have made it in we got a four barrel of course cuz it's the 460 I don't think they ever made a 462 Barrel I could be mistaken though I mean the cool thing is we are all complete what do we got for a battery this is oh it's another Sears battery a Sears di hard okay it's not quite the low grade Sears like what was in the uh the Cadillac out there in Idaho this is the kind of stuff you can't make up with a car that's been sitting like I think I was saying earlier in the [Music] video [Music] [Music] St well definitely got to get more than scrap value for this thing because otherwise there go some of my profits in the trash can you know curious to see if these old tires take in the air and the best way to fill old questionable tires is to not fill them at all just replace them but if you must you use a long extension like this clip it on and then stand back cuz if they're going to blow usually it happens when you're filling them up the first time now we're a safe distance away let her rip I think the beads leaking a little bit on the back side 25 psi in each see if any of those actually hold a couple checks under the hood the carburetor linkage actually looks completely fine and that choke closed up really good shape there no rust power steering and not that that is too important yeah we got oil in there it's not on the stick but it's got oil the radiator Cap's just sitting on there and it is bone dry with a bunch of powdery corrosion down in there engine oil dip stick goes into the timing cover up here we got uh a little overfilled but nice black oil good sign not going to worryed about the transend for now but let's go ahead and check this brake food you see this has got a a Hydro Boost Set up instead of a vacuum booster on it oh look at that fresh sure a couple pumps with the power brakes we'll blow those lines right out though look at this on the side of the red we got some service records from erden Hy service center 515 1987 how about that a gold marker or maybe they just scratched the paint I'm not sure so it was definitely running in 87 didn't want to cut the fan shroud or deal with taking the fan off but you know we couldn't really rotate the engine over since that was dragging on there now we can hand rotate it feels like 22 mm 1 in 7/8 I'm sorry it's neither of them 15 16 get a little Lube down into the intake without pulling the plugs or messing with anything let's see if this engine budges over or if she's locked up oh I see it budging a little bit there yeah she's free those belts are uh kind of funny I almost want to just hit the starter and watch all that disintegrate poliy are so shot I'm going to slip and just slam my hand into all this rust aren't I [Music] yeah never set an old battery on a concrete floor if it's leak in that all that acid gets on your concrete it'll etch it and destroy it yeah sounds great now next thing is going to be getting some power over to the ignition coil let's pop this dizzy off see what that looks like underneath sure it'll be fresh all right yeah not bad at all oh so this doesn't have points this has the dura spark tested tough well this will be nice because uh we can prove how reliable and great this is it gets pretty bad wrap but I've showed up to a few rigs that have the uh the dura spark ignition and sometimes they just work you know us usually they just work looking kosher in there have to clean out no points just got to get a hot ran over to the coil which should be this double wire one's red and black and the other says talk test on it so that would be the pulsating ground oh yeah good spark how about it and look at these belts those are going to fly off in my face when this thing starts I won't be standing in the plane of them though now we are making some progress I have got the radiator back in cuz you know we got the trans lines going there so can't fire it up without those and got some metal strapping for lower supports and then you just zip ties on the top but it's it's on there good enough leaving the AC condenser and fan shroud out for now I'm now going to run over to my storage yard and grab a battery for this cuz I have one in a Mercury G Marquee and you see the tires did not hold air at all so we got to get some some used tires somewhere also running the ozone generator in here which wow it's uh a little smoky and hazy but doesn't smell burs or anything but anyway I'm going to let that go to town it's on a timer oh let that go for a while kill off the mold and whatnot and anything living in there that stuff will will do a good job I mean it ain't going to take the stink away but uh at least hopefully kill off the mold all right it's time to fire it up you see a little rain moved in melted the snow we got the auxiliary fuel hooked up and the line coming from the tank over to a bottle in case something comes out let's open this up and see if the level drops at all or if the carb overfills here we go we got Flo a little love tap and it appears the float valve is sealing which is always amazing to me when a carb sits that long that that valve I mean it took and it sealed incredible I think this is going to run like a chance ignition is Juiced and I now have a starter button by popular request you guys told me to quit arcing and sparking the wires so finally uh put one of these together here we go it's going to fire right off off oh look at that Island perfect buil Ford tough almost perfect W even the headlights I don't know if you guys just saw that but the headlights closed look at it guys needs a little help clean that crud out and there there it goes opening up once it loes vacuum I love those headlights and we got to get some antifreeze in here maybe a couple new belts but we'll we'll let those clean the pulley out first and yeah I mean it's uh this thing's just about ready to the drive minus the interior kind of forgot about that choke was stuck on cuz of a broken vacuum line sure this has all sorts of vacuum line issues but let's fire it back up most that clacking noise you hear up front is the belts and that AC compressor little tap I hear starting too I want to run this for another couple seconds and then uh we're going to drop the oil out we'll get some water in it probably cut the belts off for now too but boy that sounds pretty darn good for being uh in hibernation for I'm going to say at least 205 30 years that belt slapping up and down it's actually bouncing back and forth hitting the power steering foliage one of the noises oh there it goes ow this thing is healthy I get some fresh oil and a filter in there and that it's one way to get the belts off right it's still empty out of the pump which is [Music] good yeah pretty black now I wouldn't have really changed this if it was good look oil so quick anyway but this stuff is black is night also when these thin oil filters get rusty it's always a a risk I've seen them rust through and cause just a a darn mess there's a fuel line coming from the tank and look at that thing that looks like it got crispy hot and almost caught on fire at some point but no wonder it wasn't even trying to pull anything is that uh I wasn't sealing I guess we could pull out of this real quick with the vacuum see if there's anything that comes out of the tank never mind what am I saying this has got a couple rust holes it's probably pretty low I thought for sure that would just stab right through yeah thing's empty well I just actually cut the pickup hose and it went GLE G ggle and it smells terrible so we're going to just get this Hazard tank out of here cuz it's you know ready to fall out on the road anyway else is holding in there we go yes completely rusted through on the top oh boy I can't believe there was anything in that that uh that hose you know technically this is supposed to be done to every car before it goes to the scrap yard but I can tell you it's not what happens taking a look at this yeah that was a bone dry and just crumbling all we would have been picking up is piles of rust this is actually ready for the scrapyard don't even have to clean it out oh at that the stainless steel on the the pickup actually this I need this for the Torino yeah we uh right now I have it just vented out to the atmosphere with a filter and this is a little inline spring-loaded oneway valve that I couldn't find anywhere so that's kind of awesome for the good old Grand Aro this pickup screen this is actually not good now that's done and it's completely clogged up so that's you know when you do these flying drives it's like I always try to save the original tank because I mean sometimes you just get lucky but you see that one's just completely gummed shut that like I can't believe when I took that hose well I guess I do believe it now yeah see there's there's the uh the gas I guess let's keep moving down the list uh we got to get some tires or something on here cuz these are not going to move anywhere yeah lead Hammer For the Win not bad at all tons of me brand new pads in there and that seems to be a common thing that I see these cars these wonderful old cars have been parked they uh it's like they just had a brake job and then they end up getting parked you can see somebody replace these brake hoses too which are now dry routing and falling apart same deal there was the wheel weights oh that was actually the weight off the drum oh three of them roll baby oh actually I got a couple rims off of a Ranchero with tires that hold air oh the Bol pattern fits too except the center is too [Music] small that'll do it and don't worry these were already trashed anyway look somebody drilled out and elongated the holes or had a loose wheel but that's uh that'll do I mean they're not hubcentric anymore definitely not as strong but it'll work for rolling around oh oh is it the caliper is hitting it or the tie rod in now oh yeah I guess it is hitting something back there well you know I'm not taking no for an answer here so we're going to make it work and I'll do it and just in case you were wondering this was too small for here it had to get cut out or ground out but I'll keep this in my junk bin for something it's a nice Circle it still hits the caliper gosh darn it not going to work yeah at least it still work on the back time for this interior yeah hey baby hi you ready for your uh come on out come check this thing out okay oh I've somehow convinced Jen to clean the inside actually I offered her an oyster dinner and she agreed to it she hasn't seen it yet though so what's up but they uh that did a decent job actually smells much better and it's a humid day today too there she is you ready to see the inside of this yeah how bad is it and see what you signed up for Gus you too buddy you want to check out the inside of this thing so this is what how many dozen oysters gets me as many as you want take a look hey gus you want to go for car ride see what he thinks oh my God Jump On In there come on no there is no way you be fine all right wow while I go and get supplies uh you oh this has got to be the worst car I've ever smelled what what does it smell like to you what would you say if you were to pin it I don't know like a a dead body no it doesn't smell that bad well we ran the ozone generator we're going to give her a mask and let's see what the goose man thinks you want to come check out the car come on if he gets into the car that that says everything there's no way he gets into the car oh no he took one sniff of no way Gus come on boy come on what's that what's this no all right come here no G no get out of there painted all right so it doesn't smell that bad yeah it's kind of kind of cool in there actually well now you need a bath don't you mister come on he's probably so stoked that there's actually grass again oh with the big Le oh you bit her butt did you all right get to work out I know it's so nice it's unbelievable attacker we're going skiing tomorrow in this yeah great ski weather I tell you I hope those doll don't fall out are we're on a hill no the dollies are on the driveway though got it I need it's like a trampoline K turn for the win best quad ever good yeah look good oh you're going to have some fun so Jen is doing her own video on your second channel right on this little little diddy cleaning it out maybe she'll find something interesting and I'll work on trying to get that trunk popped too go get some tires somewhere I don't know oil filter belt let's make it happen hey you know what I didn't think to check was the last registration sticker on the plate 1990 yeah so that's uh about 30 years right a little bit more 33 years get that in collection I it's going to be too difficult to get open break away the rust a little there we go de bodies no that's a it's a deep trunk we got jipped with the the gr Torino it's so small compared to this this is uh right in line with the Grand Marquee we got but surprisingly very clean inside of here spare out oh one of those compact ones for saving space and a bumper Jack well just paron anyway oh no there's the rest very nice spring spring down on there oh yeah probably a little bit bigger than it had to be all right using a Plaza open the door here we go it's one way to do it still works too look at that we could weld that patch back in that's no big deal oh yeah doors are open I need a now geared up where'd you get that suit at oh I've just had it in safekeeping W just in case it's like a biohazard suit suum huh it is oh that's this this an early Valentine's Day present oh yeah that's real love right there and time to go grab a couple parts and some tires I think I know just the place I tell you this Tundra is starting to feel tired especially on these humid days you accelerate it kind of bucks a little bit it's got a good misfire I think that's due to low compression and you know when the truck gets older like in my case it gets heavier cuz I put more and more junk in it the engine gets more sluggish cuz it's worn out and that really gives you that authentic worn out truck feeling uh or as you young kids like to say it clapped out truck right they had the oil filter in stock and not the right belt but one size off on I got one size bigger one size smaller they Co heavy duty made in PRC People's Republic of China and China and for some tires let's see somebody ripped the gate off of here um doesn't look like we're going to get lucky usually this thing's full of tires I'm actually at my old work um but yeah these are nice though 14s look almost new they're not though 2014 and the beads are falling apart they're all super dry otherwise I'd grab those oh well have to try one other place I actually used to stash tires back behind this fence but uh look at this so you see all this trash there is a guy that hangs out around here and he organizes trash piles and true story I used to organize some it wasn't trash I mean I kept good stuff back here okay so I still have a propane tank and 55 gon drums I got to get those cleaned up but one day he uh he moved my stuff and he actually threw a bunch of like tires I had in the bin and I was like dude those are good tires like don't mess with my stuff because I don't bother him he just comes back here and I've talked to him before he he's got a thing where he he has to organize trash it doesn't seem very organized to me but so I'm telling this story to Jen and she's like so wait a second let me get this tra your AR doing with a a homeless guy about touching your stuff but it's not trash she didn't believe me she basically thought my stuff was trash but it wasn't like all these little piles these are all him he goes in the woods picks this stuff up and makes giant piles over here too and I I uh talked to him once I said a few times I've talked to him I offered to pay him per trash bag he fills up I said I'll give you trash bags and I'll give you whatever it was like five or 10 bucks per trash bag and then we'll properly dispose of it but he didn't want to do that he had no interest and so he'd probably be mad at me right now for exposing his his trash piles but it's not good look at what he's doing this is crazy absolutely Madness I mean it's great that he's picking this all up out of the ccs and whatnot but it's like what's the point if every time a wind storm comes it just blows away that's a nice little piggy bank like usual we are way off topic but uh this here here's a shame as well you see the tree fell over and knocked out these beautiful arbores they're not the Emerald Greens but yeah checking out Termites Termites Ate out the whole bottom and then uh she gave I can't stand people that litter and throw trash out of their Windows another true story I was once driving down this here Road and the guy in front of me the passengers in the back rolled down the window and threw out the McDonald's trash bag and trash went all over I wrote down the license plate called the cops immediately they actually went to the dude's house and it was it was a young kid and his friends threw it out but that stuff would fire me up wait a second I got the sail Tires over here that they hang a banner on Boom there's a 15 oh yeah I was able to find a couple how you make it [Music] out I'll give you a hand to help you finish it he's cutting these Rusty moly seat belts out and there's there's the date 42nd week of 1977 so this must be a 19 78 I guess it could be a 79 too and look at that there is the build sheet little damp oh this will definitely tell us here oh I could just read the VIN too so Jenice called it quits on this one and I don't blame her I'm just doing some final vacuuming and getting everything up off the the headliner CU I essentially wanted to get it clean enough to be able to you maybe drive it but we still didn't even it's starting to become a lost cause noticing all these little balls of foam it's like no wonder these things are super fight from the factory every little crevice has foam stuffed in it back here I mean which is great but then if water gets in it causes such an issue and it accelerates the rot and gives nesting materials for mice which I don't I haven't really seen much evidence of Of Mice being in here and it doesn't doesn't smell like that you know starting to smell much better that's for darn sure trying to get rid of all the nasty stuff Windows what do you guys think will these go down if we apply power does look this uh Wing window what the heck yeah that's part of the window too the whole thing goes down together it's not quite a wing window it's a fake Wing window I think this is going to be the motor see a Purple motor down there yeah it's got a broken clip somebody was in here at some point zip tied it got the old jfo it's almost 15 volts this might give it enough juice to roll down probably not because everything is so corroded I can tell you I'm not driving this car with the windows up no there it comes oh love it I think I was going the wrong way though little shock therapy oh darn motor did come back to life though it's just stripped out internally really neat design though as you roll down the little uh triangle goes down first and then the big one follows suit manual windows got to love them I think we're going to have much better luck with this back one oh yeah is this I used all the time junk yes I just wanted to see that nice action on the the windows finally one of them works as it [Music] should we yeah [Music] mil [Music] away [Music] [Music] guess we see if these beads tear too or punch myself in the face [Applause] [Music] there to go fire the compressor up these are totally still usable but you know bunch of corrosion I bet you if you just fill them up and drove them on the highway it'd probably clean that stuff right out of there cuz the tire kind of Wiggles back and forth but these will be fine [Music] well that was much easier than steel [Music] wheels almost a matching set of course I ran rolled through Gus's poop yeah buddy those little tires look pretty good fill her up with some freshy it's 460 deserves it 7.5 L of Fury you know how did we end up here like this car it was free by the way should have just been taken right to the scrapyard maybe take the wheels the C hats off it junk it but uh decided to try to give her a second chance and as you can see it's it's pretty far gone but few things come to my mind as far as uses like definitely a good demolition derby car uh could make a good Mad Max Cruiser style car you know or uh what's that movie The Duke mobile from Escape From New York put some chandeliers up on the front I don't know but way too deep into it to call it quit at this point however I think this video is probably running on pretty darn long especially since my brain is all over the place I'm showing you guys a little bit of everything so uh we we jump off topic on this this channel quite a bit if you guys have any ideas of something you'd like to see done with this uh let me know if anybody's interested in a great running 460 engine and transmission that may or may not work let me know too but we're going to find that out in a part two cuz yeah certainly didn't go this far to throw the towel in but yeah we made some progress we got good tires on it now holding there clean windows uh interior still got a pressure wash the dash and stuff but it's all rainy and dark out there so uh we're actually going skiing tomorrow and I figured you know what I wanted to get this video uploaded on Friday it's actually like 4:30 in the morning on Thursday right now I just editing all the footage and I'm like it's definitely my fault that we ran out of time on this one you know snow came was riding the the king turd out there having a blast but there'll be a part two we'll get her out cruising if you guys got any feedback let me know and I thank you very very much for tuning in this far especially if you did CU I know this has got to be probably over an hour by now so thanks very much see you guys soon No Nonsense no how over out you're so strong [Music] all [Music] n [Music] low tide at the river
