    SB....I suspect that is the result of having entered said vehicle in a demolition derby. But I have been wrong before.

    Those doors on that Chevy could have been used! I guess you would have to be in the right place at the right time.

  13. Wasn't even all that rusty. Still some good parts on it. I would have let it rot in my field before I did that.

    Looks like most of the stuff being crushed is from the Northern California wildfires. They also crush confinscated tuner type street racers cars in Cali; and, as far as I'm concerned, that's a GOOD thing!!! I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

    How come the Pinto didn't explode? Must've removed the gas tank.

    Pintos are extremely good in compact class derby. I've done several.

    That fork lift operator is not from California..........somewhere in the south/southeast would be my guess. They have fires everywhere.

    Lots of stuff out of a fire somewhere meaning all of those golf carts, I'd say the Chevy fast back finally outlived it's allotted time in a yard that doesn't keep rigs like that until there isn't anything left to take off or it was a lot rustier than it looked. I have the back window area out of one out here that I saved when I helped clean up my buddie's place and I knew the car that it came off was rusted but the whole roof was bad to outside of the rear window area which is bad but might work on a chop some time.
