Always sad for me to see station wagons being crushed.. Those would have been the type of car I'd drive if I had the money.. I'd live in it too.. take out the back seats.. add in a small mattress and box spring.. portable toilet and stove and I could live anywhere..
I'm pretty sure that the Diplomat wagon was discontinued by 1986. I was alive back then, and I don't recall ever seeing one in the wild! @@elaineewalt8137
wow never knew the Diplomat had a wagon these vid's are a treasure trove of old forgotten cars. An that '74 K-5 blazer well Chief Brody will be sad that was his ride in Jaws
Yeah The other ones had no point in saving (seriously the only one that still resembled a car was the grand am) but the diplomet couldve been something
Ill never seen diplomat wagon before ill though it was mercury marquis wagon Look oh a dodge wow that rare remember seeing in 4 door police cars in the 80s half 90s sad look restorable
@@lawrencerosen8444glad to see someone else pointed this out instead of me. No station wagons were made after 1981 for the Dodge Diplomat. The two-door coupes were also eliminated after 81. All Dodge diplomats were sedans after 81 from 82 on
1980 Dodge Diplomat wagon probably the salon package. Equivalent to the Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country. Also equipped with the Chrysler electronic lean burn engine fuel management system
That Blazer was self-destructing before it could even get into the crusher! (Is it just me or are those new front-loading washers falling apart faster than top-loaders? 🤣) The Chevy C-20 may have been a '71 or '72 because the parking lights were in the bumper; earlier models had them in the grille
Looks like a LeBaron wagon with Plymouth Gran Fury grille, added afterwards. It was a rust bucket, sorry fans, too far along to "restore". No replacement sheet metal out there.
I agree that poor old K5 was essentially dust, yet how many noticed that the upper windshield frame & the front of the top were still there? Did you also see the lowback bucket seats? While it may sound crazy, there are plenty of guys looking to pay GOOD MONEY for those pieces to convert newer ones to a full -top. YET I ALSO KNOW, that truck laid in there a LONG time.
Not the Family Truckster! (Yeah, yeah; I know the Truckster was a Ford) That is the first Diplomat wagon I have ever seen, though. I think that Blazer just took over the top spot in our Rustball Rankings. It's fun to toss in a few appliances now and then, too. I wonder if somebody cut that old Chevy truck in half to make a trailer, or if it's @ss just plain rusted off. Good load, today.
@@LongIslandMopars Thats true. I had a 76 Plymouth Volare that had just over 186,000 on it when the transmission gave up. I gave it to a fellow Plymouth lover for parts to keep other Plymouths going. It was a great car!
Say goodbye to more old classics everybody! But that k5 blazer was begging to be destroyed!
Ahh come on little bondo some bailing wire good to go. Lol
Yeah, that blazer had the structural integrity of a wet noodle.
@@Tomcat115 ill say its integrity was that of a coat of paint.
Just old junk
It’s a truck it’s a worthless piece of junk as are all trucks/4wd crap

Me too👍
Yup..that wasba rare Mopar wagon-about an '86 Dodge, but just WHAT, 🤷♀️ I'm not sure...🤦♀️ Maybe a Diplomat? 🤔
@@elaineewalt8137I Believe it was a Diplomat? I Just googled it

Such aspiration from todays youth!

Yep the big yellow jaws got the poor blazer.
0:25 Dodge Diplomat Town & Country Station Wagon
I don't normally side with the dirby guys, but that wagon could have gone out in a blaze of glory.
Yeah
The other ones had no point in saving (seriously the only one that still resembled a car was the grand am) but the diplomet couldve been something
Wow! That Diplomat wagon is really rare. Didn't even know they made a wagon til I looked it up. Shame!
Yeah, I remember them. There were good spare parts and glass for someone on that car.

I think that K5 blazer is one of the only cars that was in better condition AFTER it was crushed.
That K5 may have been the rustiest example in the world!
That radioantenna has taken in radiostations for the very last time...R.I.P

4:03-4:16 that is a good place for those high-efficiency washers and dryers.😂😂 That is the most efficient that those appliances will ever be😂😂
That C20 put up a good fight!
That wagon was cool. I bet that car would of sold for more then just scrap price. Would be a awesome project.
A couple small patch panels and some bondo and that Blazer could of been saved,such a shame. 🤣😂🤣

Shame that nobody cares about classics anymore, today’s young people only care about the latest of technology.
Not my kid!
@@kimberlieverschoor3814 Thank goodness! At least someone cares.
Youd be mistaken
17 here and all i like is from primarily the 1970s-late 1990s (with a few mid 2000s cars)

man it hurts seeing that diplomat wagon go, but it looks like it was already rusted to death
Extra crispy crush today!
Love these vids
That blazer could have been saved, looks like a great project vehicle.
Dude that thing was BEYOND repair it was already crumbling just by being put in the crusher before it was even used
I was a joke man, literally over half the sheet metal was gone
@@nathanielorthmann4830 my bad, sorry lmao
@@nathanielorthmann4830 the diolomat DEF couldve been saved tho
I would love to check out this yard
I had to search RUclips to see what the 1977 Plymouth Arrow looked like. I'd never even heard of it before now!
Going to Google or RUclips it also as never seen one or heard of it before either Lol
I had one, it was built by Mitsubishi. It was a pretty good car.
Those washing machines looked practically brand new,
Creaky classics.
that diplomat hurt my soul
Why not throw in a washer and dryer set to be crushed??
He did
Probably Samsung or LG. Junk.
IT IS FUNNY THAT THE WAGON IS REAL CAR
A metal trash sandwich! Good job!

great video. Best in crush class, chevy blazer, pontiac grand am. Both junk to begin with. Pounce on that like folks!!
Yeah but that wagon had rare parts.

@@michaelbergman8277 awesome
I bet Arthur tussik could’ve fixed that blazer 😂
Wow!of all,the crusher channels, you get the most rusty stuff of all! What state are,you in?
That chevy 67-72 cab today be worth some money today ,more than crush value i would think
Not one that badly rusted or wrecked.
Good Lord why do these older than dirt cars stay in this yard so long? Don't you cycle inventory every 6 or 9 months?
Perfect ❤
Se apreciaría mejor si pusieras una cámara fija 🙂👍👍
Are those washing machines or asian microcars?
This is James Barrow this station wagon is destroyed
Where was the Plymouth arrows
After saw the 85 Pontiac grand am
What the hay happened to the Blazer ?!
