That Astro really has seen a lot by the looks.. Love these older cars. I used to spend my childhood in a junkyard.. In Vermont it's illegal to have a junkyard without a permit.. But mostly it was the fact that none of the cars were registered... For some reason they had to be registered... That and some yuppie from another state flew over in a helicopter and whined about the junk cars saying it was bad for the environment.. while they were right... they ruined my fun.. I loved searching the old cars.. my favorite was the El Camino because that's where I found a ton of porcupine quills in the cab.. There were several other cars there too... mostly cars from the 70's and 80's.. and a little ways away from our property sat a frame to an old model T.. which sadly rotted away in the woods.. it never was cleaned out.. just evaporated into dust
My first thought when I see something like a totally rusted out un-roadworthy 35 year old Astro is where are these things coming from? Have they been rotting away in someones yard for 20 years and finally being sent to the junkyard?
@@brentboswell1294 There are a few other white wall tires from different companies that you can still get, I got a set of Tigar Paw white walls for my Ranger a few years ago.
Light-colored cars (white, silver and gray) are usually primed with gray primer, which traditionally is less durable than the red primer used on darker-colored cars (you'll notice the Buick had bad spots in its paint, too). And newer cars with clearcoat paint are even more sensitive to fading and peeling than older models
It has to do with the manufacturers switching from solvent based paints to water based paints, and paint manufacturers like 3M and PPG telling manufacturers that the old solvent based paint preparation techniques didn't have to change (patently false).
Look at the Chevrolet Express van. If it's white it's probably peeling somewhere! Most companies cheap out on white paint since you can do it single-stage and call it a day
I thought they will have to turn in the tags to the Department of Motor Vehicles .. the original owners.... This makes me so sad , as I remember when all of these cars were brand new.
Где он нахот такие помойки? Я смотрю видосы тебя. И ковбоя. Я понимаю раритет и всё такое. Но кажется как будто ты перерабатываешь одну свалку с 80х годов начал! И до этого не закончил
