Abandoned 1978 Pontiac Trans Am Driven From Grave After 10 Years | Turnin Rust 

seeing you guys clear that engine bay brings a whole lot of memories I used to throw a bit of duct tape over the carb and hit that baby with a leaf blower shit be flying everywhere but was some fun and it helped a heap good stuff guys got yourself a new subscriber. Dion : New Zealand

awesome! watching from Australia great show

Turnin Rust Keep up the cool videos about bringing the dead rides back to life. Thanks

Just found you and really enjoy the videos, you have some kind of "raw" feeling in the way the videos are montaged as well, very refreshing. Would you happen to know the song that starts at 1:05:25 ? Pretty fitting

Shitty gas in tank

The money is in getting you to watch for as long as possible, youtube pays

Real tv for sure not that scripted reality bullshit

​@Glenn Statham so? Free to us and it pays them to keep bringing us more free great content.

Nothing odd about it sir. Mainly cuz this is quality viewing and today's TV is garbage

I feel the same. Love watching stuff like this.

GREAT story! Thanks

Not really, he tried to Jew him down when the old man only wanted $2000 to begin with!!🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

@@slowjamcdub Plus its totally irresponsible trying to drive it on a public road in that condition.

I hope so. It's not the young man's car until cash, title and keys change hands.

​@@slowjamcdubu obviously dont know how to do a deal

These types of deals are the best. Theses boys manners are so refreshing to see. I had an 81 and this video had me thinking about those old times again. Appreciate you all sharing this.

Pontiac motors are muisic listen and u will hear all that heavenly father

1973 had a nice refined look to them.

I had an 81 turbo. I loved mine. Wish I still had it.

Wow! The 70 TA 455 SD was a torque monster. I had a 70 LeMans S 455 that would destroy tires.

Yum

The guy is respectful as well. 73-76 is my dream car. But love anything TA haha great video

Nuthun' compares to them first few minutes when youre blowin dead rodents and dog chow out of the exhaust...yeah buddy!

Love that YT name!!!!!

Man how many vicegrip Windows good memories haha

Well save ur money up & go find u something 2 build & work on & fix u with ur tru best friends/ tru family..& make new great times & take pictures & makes video of ur build once u find something that is 4 sale that u want 2 own & enjoy life with ur friends & family...all u got 2 do is try & work hard & dont give up . Be a simple kind of man. Like how the song goes..u can do this if u try...remember that song ? If u dont u better start listening 2 it. It will help u focus & get ur mind right..

It tickles my feels too. My old man was a drunk military disciplinarian and he built blue printed rods as his main hobby. He never taught me a damn thing about it as he didn't want me being seen or heard. 78 trans was my first car...i bought it myself with my own money but i couldn't do it justice and it ended up in the garage for so long that my mother insisted i sell it. I still don't drink, beat my kid or wrench on cars.

@@problematic1417 well im sorry 4 ur loss.if u really ever want 2 learn how 2 build something there r a whole lot of people like me that would help u learn & or point u in the right direction. There aint nothing like building something with ur all ur skill & knowledge that u earn & delevope there is all kind of books 2 educate ur self..u could start off with RC CARS like i did on my own that come in kits that they sell online. Those kits will teach u alot & u will gain all kinds of skills & learn all kinds of stuff that u can apply 2 full size passion rides..i say start off with a GRASS HOPPER. RC DUNE BUGGY..They sell them on amazon.i got one 4 one of my newphews 4 xmas. There r also all kinds if youtube videos about them..good luck i hope u find happiness in life & make new goid memories 2 cancel out bad one u have.. u can always make new good memories .like some one said in the movie called THE PUNISHER with TOM JANE..

@@svr27rr87 Much appreciated. I self taught to be a carpenter/contractor though. 27 years self employed now. Historic restorations is my specialty but really I just end up doing it all...property line to rooftop is my motto. That trans was the only car I ever owned as I became a truck owner at an early age. My mechanic is pretty much the only person I ever pay to do anything for me. He can fix with a wrench what i can't beat with a hammer. Not to say I can't wrench but I can't wrench at the same confidence level that I can do other things. I am wrenching on my backhoe right now mostly because I can't just drive it to my usual mechanic. I do have a low milage/strong f250 that needs a new bed...once the backhoe is running I think I'll drop an oak on the mill and make myself one.

@@problematic1417 NICE.

Dumb ass clean fuel frist

Good for you

A fire waiting👍

Draining oil would be a good idea next time...

The car is Kindof Rusty but it's old

Thank you Chris Ward, you just saved an hour of my life.

Axlerod Horowitz Probably side project that are funded on the side by running a real shop with customers cars being repaired first so they can support their families and pay the bills day to day!!! Only working nights n weekends whenever possible for these projects. Why so much negativity everywhere you look these days!!!!!

@@rogerrolex6981 This ain't anything new, Roger. The internet just strips the veneer off for people, and you see who they really are. It's always so sad.

@Axlerod Horowitz Unfortunately, Your %100 right on that.

@Axlerod Horowitz - Judging by the fact that they took an almost dead battery, no new plugs, a damn near empty brake fluid bottle, no momentary contact replacement start switch, they didn't have a clue how to field clean the starter & lube it, AND - the WORST OF ALL, they didn't even know the goddamn firing order on the engine. These idiots were using smart phones for flashlights, when they could have Googled the damn firing order, & the cylinder location. (they probably didn't know that either !) My mom could have done a FAR better job ! I heard them mention the car needed a "new carb". They don't even know how to rebuild Carbs ? I'm absolutely shocked they knew how to put air in the tires !

My old man had a gold one in '78...Dropped me off at Jr. High one day and the kids freaked out 😁

Correction Aris Trans am's Are and always well be AWESOME Love my 73 T/A....

Sergio Jacquez the only good trans am is the 70 1/2

@@jeffleblanc8850 It was abandoned for a reason, one of the worst cars ever made.

@@bilbobaggins4710 Cool! I still have a gold 78

Yes, as a pro painter and corrosion specialist, pine needles, leaf's,moss, are death to these old cars.👍😁🐒

Yeah, the pine needles were bugging me too ! lol

LOLOL

Chief Goose that sounds like a you kind of problem

@@vipervidsgamingplus5723 I think he made that pretty clear.

@Kroger hello,how are you doing

Qjets had an issue of leaking fuel on the bottom , however a great carb.

Texas

hell after that "non corrosive" shit dalton mcginty decided to throw on the roads up here I'd be happy to go back to road salt, the shit we have now eats steel, aluminium, plastic, rubber, it even degrades fiberglass, about 10x faster than salt ever did

@Jess W Yeah, but we get more black widows out here. One could fall on your face if you go under an old car like that.

Parking them on grass isn’t good at all

Keep Them Washed! Underbody and then with the wand and the broom! WEEKLY! What is so hard about winter salt!? Father's Day 2019 12.18 pm cst USA TRUMP 2020.

Heck ya. Just scored a factory yellow 78 Z28 on a trade!

me and a buddy did the same miss those carefree days

Yes sir Gabe, I still rock out to journey, Boston ect, on my beautiful 73 T/A until i can;t no more.... Old Muscle Car Power 4 ever #1...

Dont forget mullet haircut with lines in the side buisness up front party in the back

@@jesse8330 Yall really didn't get in on the hot ones. Who cared what tunes were going, you couldn't hear them for the exhaust note. Shades of dropping the dumps and taking on all comers. Going home from college in 68 I'd get out of the city proper, drop the dumps and my best friend and I spent a glorious 140 miles loafing along at 120 watching the light show under the car bouncing off the scenery around us. Tunes? Those were the best.

Yep, move to the south and save your sanity brother

@Robert Curcio Me three

me too, get it all nice and let the old guy take it for a spin!

CaptainNonsense So very true, I bought an airplane near Duncan Ok, Gentleman seller let us use his hangar, tools and parts and left us to it for two weeks to get it running, Made us feel sortve bad we’d never see that in our home state of California

We're gonna' do what they say can't be done. Plus free visegrips!

That's what I thought too!! I was trying to figure out if it was 18 each or for the pair

The one that kinda drove books for about 6k right now plus no T top is rarer.

You come too ny cars in worse shape that’s easy 3,500 all day

And that would be just the worse of the two

Im a nurse y'all are like doctors.love watching you working.priscilla

@@prebesemer There is no way you're a nurse with that grammar.

Skrodekill?

I love the way thes guys are doing their videos we need more like this guy's keep up the good work

@@FreddyFunderbunz The add revenue generated by Motor Trend (or any channel with millions of subscribers) would've been more than enough to pay for the creation of content and turn a profit. Channels like Hoovies Garage show this as he occasionally reveals the add revenue from certain videos and it's often six figures. That's more than enough to cover a large production team (who are already on a salary from motor trend) and also turn a profit. The truth is Motor Trend got gready. They figured there were enough people like yourself who didn't understand how RU-vid add revenue works to sell a subscription. They were right, but they lost the RU-vid community. RU-vid doesn't take a cut of their subscription revenue, but they also don't get the same exposure they did when their content was free to view (but generating lots of add revenue) on RU-vid. They're making more money, but reaching less people. Great formula for profit, not a good formula for growth and introducing the next generation to the brand. They also managed to annoy a lot of people who had supported their growth by watching adds which made them money. I used to run an online marketing company. The Motortrend model is used as a "what not to do" in brand and content monetisation. Their hard core subscribers like yourself can defend them to the hilt, but after you guys stop paying your subscriptions nobody else will have even heard of them, they'll have experienced very little growth, and will have been replaced in the minds of the next generation by brands like Hoonigan who use the merchandise model to churn out tons and tons of content with just as high, sometimes higher production value as MT, all free to view. Motor trend is just run by old guys who didn't understand the value of free to view content. Fortunately for them in the short term there are enough people who don't understand youtubes add revenue who buy the whole "these videos don't make money" lie they MT pedalled. Enjoy your subscription. I enjoy watching all the roadkill episodes for free after people rip them and make them available for free download. The old guys at Motortrend up in thay big office building still making those paper magazines never really considered that would even be an issue I guess. Welcome to 2019.

@@FreddyFunderbunz Everyone else seems to be able to produce better quality videos than roadkill does and still release them on youtube. Plenty of people do it and dont see any money back at all.

I know! I almost laughed when they were saying, 'oh, it sounds like its missing on one or two plugs or something...' I thought it was purring like a kitten after sitting for 10 years!! Sounded great to me!

Heroic effort! Bravo

Good idea

Just go up under dash and take it off manually

or actually use the damn thing so it doesnt freeze up

Your awesome, so true

Always hate when the ebrake has been pulled just makes my job so much harder the Buick Special I had on my channel had a seized ebrake and it was a nightmare

That was my 1st car too, but in burgundy. 105 Hp! Slowest thing in the world!
