    I adore classic American cars.
    Epecially form the era lets say late 50's to the late 70's (in general)
    But some of the cars i see here realy look like they are in very good condition.
    It's great to watch, but also at the same time with a littlebit of pain in my heart to see them destroyed.
    Especially the ones that look like they have very good body with no issues at all like car number 24 (the first one on the track, and also my favorite).

      Well none to worry. Most generally they're cars that were beyond reasonable repair or restoration. Cars I have used have been junkers,rusters and rotter's. Pretty much the Junk of the Junk you might say. I've cut down trees or winched out of ravines. To get a car for demolition competitions. Oldest junker I have ever used was a 1947 Chrysler Windsor left in the woods. I pull out what ever can be salvaged and resold. Then put a engine, trans and a 3/4 ton spool rear end . Or old Packards, Hudson and Studebaker's.

    Where do they keep finding these pre-1970 cars to derby? They are very rarely seen on the road anymore, sure would rather see some of this vintage tin restored and driven rather than destroyed.

    • @geeksquad16
      @geeksquad16 5 лет назад +2

      The cars they use for these derbies are past the point of being restored. They are so rusty and falling apart, they're not even worth saving.

    • @opoxious1592
      @opoxious1592 2 года назад +2

      Well, troughout in the the U.S there are seem to be very big scrapyards sometimes with over 10.000 cars, many of them containing cars that we condsidering to be classic cars (25+ years).
      Some of these scrapyards are also in the desert, so that means that 70's cars (or older) can sit in the scrapyard for decades without rusting away.
      So as far as i know, it's seems to be pretty easy to find one of these cars at the scrapyard.
      But please do not attck me right away.
      I'm not an American, but i have watched quite a lot of documentairy's about Amerivan cars in general.
      And also have seen multiple documantairy's about Demolition Derby's.

    Well the cars that are used are junkers. Probably abandoned or set out in the weather to long or were stripped out but not completely .I use 1965 to 1978 Full Size Chrysler,Dodge,Plymouth and G.M. wagons. I don't buy good running cars strictly rusters and rotters . Some are just the remains left behind . I burn em ,Build em , & Bash em . But I use Loose bore 305 chevy engines and spool rearend and a locked gear tranny (forward &Reverse only ) .Purpose built cars like they use in the Northeast..

      Can you re-use the engine to build it in a new derby car?
      I mean, how long can you use the engine in general?
      I often can clearly see that the engines are extremely over heated, and yet they keep on running.

      @@opoxious1592 as long as the engine holds together well enough. If it explodes and breaks the engine block. That's the the end of the engine. But I've reused and rebuilt engines till they couldn't be used no more. I have a 305,307, & 350 Chevrolet engine for use in my Super stock and Pro Modified weld cars. And I have a Olds 350 for use in Old Iron & Relics class demolition derby car's. My cars this year are a 70 Chrysler Town and Country,1987 Cadillac Sedan DeVille and a 58 Studebaker President for Old Iron/Relic's class. I've gotten two to three seasons out of a engine.
