Freiburger is such a car nerd its cool
dude is a plethera of information!
I caught the Chevy Malibu as the older model. We have a 71 and it has the exact same taillights. I knew it wasn't the newer car. He caught it right away too.
I have a 71 too and i thought whaaaaat . Then he caught it . Was like phew hahaha
It is amazing that that is only US cars. He knows every detail about every US cars, including totally irrelevant details. But then he is dancing around a Jaguar MK2 and ignoring it and he likes the Volvo because it looks like a Ford?!
I think that when there was a Ferrari he would have said "and then there is this car with a horse logo that looks like a Corvette".
And (here) in Europe it is the other way around. We have some ' nerds' that know a lot about european cars, but don't ask too much on US cars.

It's called nostalgia. I had a 1972 4 door Ford Torino with a 302 when I was in high school, the car floated like a boat and wobbled over 80mph but I would take it back over any Jaguar or Ferrari just for the memories. Yes the memories were mostly made in the giant rear bench seat instead of drag racing wins lol.
5:39 Future project "Disgustang" in the background
The vehicle knowledge that this man possesses is just astounding. I could watch this for hours
Me too, Thomas. I wish that was a whole format for a show.
yea i know! he knows sooooooooooooooo much
Same here, I find him completely engaging and love the junkyard walks. At the moment here in the UK I'm watching re-runs of 'Kojak' and shows like this are helping me identify the cars I see on the programme. Shows like this and Roadkill (the YT ones, obviously) are unfortunately making me want to buy a late 60s/early 70s US saloon/sedan with a V8 in it...
@@HowardLeVert do it man. Come on over, and if you stop in South dakota hit me up. We can go car shopping, shoot guns, itll be a fun time
@@shaunclifton5281 Well...in MotortrendOnDemand there's a show called "Junkyard Gold" hosted by Steve Magnante (a Freiburger's personal friend), and that guy is a goddamn car encyclopaedia even bigger than David. You'll love it...search the pilot episode here in youtube, where he goes deep on a Mopar junkyard. :)
when you have 30w oil for blood...
Did any one notice the 69 mach 1 mustang on the right at 5:03 this will be an episode of roadkill #thedisgustang .
mostagt I was just noticing that!
...but they pulled the disgustang from a roof top, or at least a teaser showed that.
Yes, at 5:03 you do see the front end of what is probably a 69 Mach 1. And at 14:22 you also see a 73 Mach 1 to the right in silver. PS. I woulds love to get my hands on those Mach 1's, that Cougar and a few others I saw.
mostagt Yup!
i saw a 65 mustang coupe in there somewhere
Freiberger, your Mopar is showing, that Chevy was a 1964.
I'd subscribe to motor trend on demand if there was a daily video of Freiburger walking through junkyards like this.
Amen to that. I would too. In a heartbeat
we want more nerdy junkyard talk like this! I love it
I luv walking junkyards when we vacation
He never said anything about the English Jaguar.
Maybe he doest know a thing about it and just walk by it because of that
AND he skipped over the Pontiac :(
NJPurling it's rhd too!
Exactly. I was waiting for a Mark II remark atleast...
it's an old Daimler, not a Jag, but still was the only car i was staring at the entire video
More of this. I would literally watch hours upon hours of Dave walking through junkyards pointing out cool finds and dropping useless but interesting vintage automotive knowledge.
I love how Freiburger just goes full in tech on the jeep!
Funny couple of things though - he didn't mention the 9 slot grille, which Jeep (the modern company) can't use, because Ford created it. He also slipped - the Jeep was not truly designed by Willys. American Bantam, the US affiliate of Austin, designed the prototype. It was smaller and had other different details. The US government knew AB couldn't make enough, and wanted changes, so they had Willys and Ford work up their own variants, then created a final design that they granted to Willys, and licensed to Ford. So in truth, a child company of a British make designed the 'very American' Jeep.
SirEuchre American Bantam, Butler, PA... The next county over from my hometown. AM General is also related to American Bantam in some way... Can't remember exactly how tho. I always like it when people kno who actually birthed the jeep. 👍
Freiburger is literally a walking encyclopedia for cars I can't believe how many small facts he knows about every series, make and year.
Love the content guys :)
Frieburger, there's a show here in the U.K called Mastermind. It would be class to see you on it answering questions on American cars. Maybe someday..
Is Magnus Magnusson still doing it? I left in '79, so...
Yes he's still going
Nooo 😔 he really said 63 😭😭 its a 64 🤦🏽♂️
I always wanted a 1964 Impala SS two door hardtop, so thumbs up on the sixties full size Chevys.
Thats the one i would have to
highpower3006 with the 409 engine and dual antennas
highpower3006 that was exactly my first car, saved up and bought for 2,500. was a mess when I got it "lowrider" complete with 12 rims, hydraulics, and chrome everything. I stripped all of it out (not the chrome) and put it back on its stock suspension and rims. That was a sweet ride. now I have a 70 mustang grande
IF I'm not mistaken I think the ss 409 Big Block came with 3 2 barrel carbs they called it a 6 pack.
mark card I'm not sure if it did, I haven't done that much research on the 409.
I love the mid-60s Chevy's, but especially LOVE THE '65!!
AFTER THE FALCON RANCHERO
YOU SAID THAT CHEVY WAS A 63
(swing and a miss)
ALL 63’s HAVE A POINTED FRONT AND REAR.. that car was a 64. I saw it from the front end. Left fender straight up and down NOT Pointed
Do t hate I’m just. Telling the truth
I’ve studied car year for five decades. It started when I was little and my dad took us all over Americaive been in the lady in New York (Statue of Liberty) and the space needle in Washington
And all points in between MY DAD HAD ONE LEG, HE LOST IT WHEN HE GOT HIT BY A DRINK IN 1948 before I was born. He taught me how to make left hand foot feeds on all his vehicles THATS HOW I LEARNED CAr REPAIR 🇺🇸
Hey David - I really enjoyed this type of episode - consider doing it more often. Awesome stuff!
I could watch this all day
How dose he know so much omg!
Cause he old.
James Hamilton Knowledge
James Hamilton just get into cars, and stay into cars for 30 or so years, and then you'll be an encyclopedia as well.
Old helps, but nothing to do with it...
his an old car guy lol
14:21 was my favorite part. Point's and says the year, make and model of a car. I'm here wondering, where the car is that he's speaking of. Turns out, it's that almost gone shell. How you could tell what it was that specifically, I will not know. And here I thought I was good at recognizing cars.
6:07 LOOK IN THE BACKROUND... Look Familiar?
Supacodegames what car are you talking about
Supacodegames I did notice a badass mustang in the background though!!
Supacodegames It's the Disgustang!
Dude that was some godtier reflex to notice that. Nice found
Oh the countless afternoons spent in this junkyard,good times! Haven't been there in 30 yrs or so, didn't know it was still there, must plan a visit!
walks around the mk2 Jag and didn't mention it??
ugliest model of Jag thats why
he talked about the ugly junk
that jag looks like the clock from beauty and the beast
Lalnable Isn't that something how tastes can differ. There are those who might say it is the Best looking Jag sedan.
Indeed
At 3:20 in the video, when he says “ooo Dodge truck!” you know Dulcich’s ears perked up and he got all excited like a kid in a candy store lol
Wrong on the Chevy Biscayne - it's a 1964.
Flat ends both front & rear plus model emblem placement on the rear quarters = 1964.
I was thinking the same thing.
definitely a 64
who cares
SwingMan1938 crusin down the street in my 64
theo jeter - Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Easy-E might've had a different body style in mind (though the stance matches up beautifully). ;)
Didn't mean to make it sound like I'm bagging on Freiburger, though. The man's knowledge about rolling iron has few peers - just that he made a slight mistake on the white Chevy sedan here, is all.
Really digging on the Ranchero & El Camino, though. Thought the Ranchero was slid over to the Falcon when Ford introduced the compact model in 1960? Not sure - but the 1957-1959 full-size Rancheros and 1959-1960 full-size El Caminos (discontinued until 1964 when it was slid over to the new Malibu/Chevelle model) absolutely *killed*, IMO.
Can watch this all day with some cold brews.I love Freiburger he is super cool car dude . Would love to go road adventure with him.
At 12:18 I'm just like "Wow, nice Benz"
Bram Collier Me too!
Me too
Looks like a late 70s C123 coupe
I believe that Mercedes is actually a c107 450slc. It looks European as well, thanks to the shorter bumpers. It's a really neat optioned car as it has hubcaps rather than the bunt pan alloys.
I really like that history lesson there at 9:29 👍 I did not know that still pretty kool dropping knowledge
did anyone else spot the "disgustang"????
jeremy hartley Ya, at 6:07.
jeremy hartley yes
at the end there were a hyundai accent .. I bet he knew nothing a bout it lol
Dealer badges are cool... except when the badge happens to be A STICKER
0:56 That looks kind of like Mr Regulars Falcon, minus the bed in the back
Blue Infinity it really does.
Blue Infinity RCR FAN!
That's because the Falcon and Ranchero were the same cars underneath. Just like the Chevelle/El Camino. In one of RCR's car show video's he runs up to a Ranchero saying "Falcon, Falcon, Falcon!" and looks at the back and goes "Oh, Ranchero."
*HOT BROWN*
ALL HAIL FINK!!!
nobody even looked at SEMA 2021 Chevy X electric motor
love the roadkill videos keep them up they're good
Does anyone know whats behind the red corvette? you can see the back of it at 8:05 and some of the front at 10:34
almost looks like some 70s concept car, that windshield looks really cool.
Kinda looks like a Sbarro concept I saw in some auto guide, can't remember the year but the ones I used to flip through as a kid were 1985 and 1992.
I believe it's a Pontiac Bonneville
I have to disagree with freiburger, I think that Biscayne is a '64, body looks too square to be '63
Would love to see more of this Junkyard walk thru videos. Very interesting and you are full of knowledge.
You're forgiven. I still love roadkill, you and Finnegan are great.
The junkyards should be incorporated into more episodes. Nothing better than a junkyard walkthrough with cameraman! Great segment and I hope to see the Caddy build! Chuck in Kansas
Welp, let's not fool ourselves here.
A blown big block just makes anything look good. Even a Chevette.
leehype i am imagening a chevelle and corvette Fusion
Cool episode, please do more of this !
Hey I actually watched some of your vids few years back! Nice to see you on a Roadkill video. I have a 91 EU Park Avenue, wish it was as clean as yours though
haha cool :) yes I love Roadkill
More junkyard stuff!!! Love it every time!
The man knows cars, there is no doubt - I love these junkyard “mindbarf” episodes
you need a leash on that camera man he takes forever to catch up
I'm a Ford guy - but do LOVE a two-door Impala - '69 LOVE!!
that is a 64 model impala or belair you can tell by the side body mold. 63 has single bottom line and 64 had bottom line that continues to the top and makes a double line.
Three pop out tail lights make that a '65 Impala. A belair will only have two lights poping out. '64 has inset tail lights and a 67 has a single bar light on each side, I only know this because my brother had a '65 for a while. As you know when you are personal with a model you tend to learn all the recognizing criteria.
Go Freiburger, Classic vehical lesson! Way Cool!
Wow, i'm sorta first!!!
See, nobody cares :|
Erik Bakker same
sorta? gtfo!
I wish I had real-life friends as intelligent about automotive as Freiburger lol.
he might be getting a few things wrong as pointed out in the comments but that doesnt mean he doesnt know what hes talking about. the amount of information this guy has stored in his head is unbelievable. its addictive to watch and listen to someone who shows so much passion, even if i do think he is abit of a nob
14:22 on the right a mach 1 ford mustang GRRRR i want to see that car love mach 1's
You walked past the MK 2 Jag.
And the red Mercedes C107 SLC. These two looked like the best cars of the whole yard too.
merc would be worth a bit in the uk though depends on condition but most of the veihicles do not look like they are full of rust like they would be in the uk.
Anyone else gotta dad that watches this show religiously
Automatically one of the best, most interesting 'streams' on this channel; Freiburger is in great part a convincing historian on most old American cars, and a great storyteller. It's great to just watch and listen to him wander about and chat about old stuff..
If he ever wants to go 'solo' and score hits, the last few vids of him doing this are great demos, and I'll certainly watch :)
In Hawaii we had a 66' 2 door Bonneville convertible. Cruising in the Pearl Harbor area with the top down we were constantly waving off F-14's
I love this episode!! Do more !!
$1 walk through a junkyard. Better than a movie !!
it's odd that the taillights of a 1964 would tell you it's a 1963...trouble afoot, I suspect
still the best show on RUclips!
Just as he got closer towards the chevy c10 that where the video ends...right on the Cadillac and I was like, "Damn."
I know, I was large sad too.
Roadkill --> probably my favorite show. Frieburger and Jesse James = best gearhead TV personalities of our time?
:O you did all the cars around the jag, but not the jag! :( that is on my opinion the most interesting car from the ones we saw. Too bad, maybe next time? :D
Octave Leroux
it's not Americana that's why.
It's sort of derp that he missed it.
understandable its like me coming from the uk and not knowing nothing about american car history as there not something i would see or have experience of on a daily basis some great cars in that yard though.
missed the mach
I feel kind of sad. I have a 64 impala. Ya most make them low riders but with the right motor they can be real nice sleepers/cruiser
Yes most are in my opinion are ruined low riders. I myself own a 61convertable I like then ride level factory.
I wish that the junk yards here in Michigan were full of old cars.
john smith They've all rusted away. The one junkyard I know with older cars is really overpriced.
shame on you for knowing so much but mistaking a 64 Chevy for a 63 lol but I'll leave it at that because I'm sure a lot of people will be beating you up over that!
Jed Petersen I'm glad somebody else noticed that it was a 64 not a 63.
I love junkyards too! Sad to see some of the cars that meat that end though. Good place for parts!
WTF is that small truck thing at 4:29
Looks like a really old Cushman utility vehicle, just a guess though.
SPG its those utility viechles at schools and parks for the janitors
The 67 Impala was my first car and I currently have a 67 Impala SS convert I restored in my shop. Great vid!
at 10:30 , what is that car that is to the left of the corvette?
I've been wanting to know this since I saw this on motortrendondemand, but there is no comments section there.
Been scouring the web with no luck. Near as i can tell it is must be some sort of kit car is my best guess. Those mirrors are circa sixties. seventies and on would have something more aero for that shape.
Edit: It bears similarities to alpha romeos and concepts though, but nothing the same.
Trans am?
Maybe a Lancia. Hard to tell, but it sure does have a huge/deep dash...
i noticed it has mid 60's mustang tail lights
Studebaker - Ummm... Avanti? :)
First thing that comes to my mind.
How could totally ignore the Mkii Jaguar that you walked by. A real classic and an interesting straigtener 6 engine
It's not 'murican, that's why. Freiburger isn't usually a big fan of imports.
He spies parts while on a walk .
I honestly want them to build a Plymouth Fury so bad
Nick Button they already had a fury for lemons
But they eventually butchered it fot charger's parts
I’m building a 67 fury III but it’s the 4 door
The Burt dealership was around until just a few years ago. I lived really close to it
You can tell this is the freibuger clone because the clone wears shoes.
Most of that stuff looks easily restorable. Such a shame. Only on the west can you find stuff like that in a junkyard . on the East coast that would be called a car show. His Automotive knowledge astonishes me
DotheJagdotheJagdotheJagdotheJagDOTHEJAGDOTHEJ...
Sonofa...
Then again, it is Roadkill.
I wanted to see the Jaguar Mk.2
I wish we had junkyards like that in Australia
Its because back in the day the UK mentality was trim the fat..conservative..anything that was more than what you needed was considered nonsense or excessive...
So enjoy a leisure walk around a classic bone yard. Thanks for all your cool videos.
This guy know his shit👌👍🏿💯
Great episode... Now for my opinion on Impalas in the 60's. 1960 Great body lines. 1961-62 bubble top still have good lines with a round edge vent window. 63-64 boring... bad roof line, too popular. 1965 is good for the tail light styling and last year for the 409. 66 is a 65 with out the good tail lights. 67-68 Impala sport coupe has a great roof line fastback style. And then there's the 1969. Overall I like them and Finnegan doesn't know what he's talking about.
It seems like these guys (Freiburger & Finnegan) like stuff from the 70s and older, but they are not into cars from the 80s and later. For example, when he started walking near that red 80s Vette (9:54), I wasn't surprised that he said nothing about it. I guess I don't fully get it. I'm thinking it might be b/c older "body on frame" cars are easier to work on / modify, but I'm not sure.
who is this guy? Freiburger would never be seen on video without his "flip-flops"... ROPMSL
Did anyone notice the white bronco at 14:38?
Anonymous Subscriber oh yeah! Cought my eye on the thumbnail. Love the early broncos, I've owned 3 of them.
Please do more of these...so friggin great!
But I Approve 😂 you should do more of this videos !!
The Chevy is a 64. BTW. The 1965 full sized Chevy, Biscayne, Belair, Impala, all trim levels and models, from convertible to stations wagon, was the SINGLE YEAR MOST PRODUCED CAR IN THE WORLD.. For one SINGLE YEAR.
STUDEBAKERS ? I THINK IF THE HAWK AND THE LARK
MY GRANDPA GAVE ME A -957 Hawk. I was 8 and my sister would not drive it from Indians to Kansas City so I didn’t get it. Gramps could not drive he never got a license BUT HE KNEW I LOVED THAT CAR
Mercedes w116 in red behind the impala. Does anyone care about that generation? Mine is rotting away in a shed full of oldtimers haha
You would hate my buddy's 75 Ventura. Hood been modified, corner markers changed, taillights changed. Would be hard to look and know the year.
1967 Impala No pillar is taking off because of Supernatural
" LOVE LOVE " Big B. Body Chevy's.... ( even the 4 doors )
One additional thing to mention on the ElCamino, in the late '50s the ElCamino was based on the full size chevy (Bel Air). After the break when it came back, it was based on the Chevelle, which would have been considered the mid-sized chevy. So, the ElCamino went through a downsizing from the '50s to the '60s. Nice salvage yard (none of that is truly junk), i could get lost in there for days.
'65 full size Chevy's are epic! rather have a '61, but the 65 over the '63 or '64...or '66...or '67 - the taillights are great
1964 SS Impala with a 409 is my Dream Car that I will buy one day and Rebuild
I've always fancied a XR7 as quite a fan of the Mercury brand, shame the rare lady of the MK2 Jaguar didn't get a look as she is a rare 'un and rare to see one in the US as they didn't sell too well or the MGB V8 sitting forlornly further back... Any American market versions of the German built Ford Capri's? Also quite the fan of Ford's VW bus ripoff the Ford Taunus Transit which was a favourite of US servicemen stationed on the Rhine who invariably took them home with them.
Love your show so don't take this wrong. That was a 64 not a 63. Ok back to making cool stuff for me to watch online.
Thank you guys great shows!
At 4:57 you can see the mustang in the backround
I love "bump side" Ford trucks. Ford changed the grill on them every year. The red one appears to be a '68. It's in decent shape, I would love to have it. The white one is a '70, the first year for the split grill. I drove a '72 in high school until I left for the Navy. I want another one badly.
A 64 Impala SS was my first car and when I wrecked it a 63 was my second, so I'm partial to the 63 and 64. But now i'm in my 50s and grew up to be a Ford fan so I was hoping you would go look at the 69 mach 1 that was in the back ground when you were looking at the El Camino.
Great extra episode. I would love to see more.
enjoyed the show....sure wish you had done the white Bonneville and the silver stang mach 1. maybe next time.
What....Where...Come on... Car Heaven, nice grave yard for some pretty cool vehicles... Thank You For This Quick Clip of Auto Porno...
