    Looks like you found a 1964 to 1966 Sunbeam Alpine... Wish I was nearby to get it. I'm going to guess your on the US West Coast, No Rust LOL

    Wow that 60 LaSabre flat top! WTF for sure. I know it could have been saved but if its going meet its end, the Northern Bangers in Emmen NL would be a better fate than China. Oh well. At least it's getting picked first! Good stuff.

    A lot of them should’ve been saved before going to the scrap yard, they would’ve been saved here in the mid west. It’s sad that some of these cars get scrapped like this honestly, because some of them are hard as hell to find let alone parts.

    • @MikeFrankovich
      @MikeFrankovich  5 месяцев назад

      People really need to make an effort to sell these before calling the junkyard or donating them.

    Sometimes the owner passes and the living family rids the car various reasons. It’s sad bc they could have went to good homes.

      @MikeFrankovich  5 месяцев назад

      Often they are donated and the charity just hears its a non running old car. Then they call the junkyard.
