    I usually enjoy watching Steve Magnante’s content, this was hard to watch.

    Someone doing a little digging before trying to pull it out may have helped, but probably not.

    I've been on many adventures where someone was bragging up how great a car was going to be once it was pulled out from its resting place. More then once I told them it would never come out in one piece, didn't stop them from ripping it apart, then they got mad at me!
    Some cars just can't be saved, doesn't matter how bad you want to save it.

    I was gifted a terminally rusted out '60 Fairlane, had a friend who ran a rollback pick it up for me. The frame was literally all that was holding anything together; the floors were gone, trunk was gone, all I really got was a bunch of trim and some underhood stuff. Also bought a Mustang that, while it ran and drove, it had no structural integrity at all... so eaten up with rust that the ROOF caved in.... again, lots of trim and running gear!

    We used to roll four doors over on their roofs to take out rear ends.

    Only a slightly better candidate for restoration than the ***anic.

    Well, looks at the bright side, no need for a car trailer, they can take it home in a pickup truck.

    I emailed Magnante awhile back about where the location of a certain junkyard he visited in a episode, in a specific town, state. The Auto Junkyard does not exist. Not even on google map satellite images .... He never emailed me back

    :eek::eek::rolleyes:o_O:confused:

    This was satire.
    It’s not as bad as the idiot who destroyed a running and driving ‘26 T sedan for clicks, but it’s not much better.

    They had a good idea this would happen. It’s a set up.

    Not as bad as seeing cars getting wrecked in movies. That one was never going to be anything other than its weight in s**** metal.

    If sand blasting that car, you would watch metal delete just as if you were erasing a text.

    Both Impalas from different eras to prove how safe modern cars are. The staged crash was misleading as it deliberately impacted the 59 at its weakest point outboard of the frame.
