Why you might need to restore an old car

Perhaps it was driven like this.....

My kidneys hurt just watching that.

 

Wow, cool.

 

Those cars went through more than my 4x4 would.

 

(To quote Doctor Emmet Brown); "Roads?....Where we're going, we don't need (have) roads."

No wonder those cars only lasted a couple of years.

 

Should link this to some of the what's a "high boy" threads.
Then they would understand why. Lol

The rollover was a classic !!!

 

Why would they need to be restored? Looks like some roads around here...

 

And some people think "off roading" is something new !

 

That was great!

Did they have preperation H back then?

 

I'd imagine something more menacing took a fella out long before any PITA became an issue.

 

That was great... Those skinny tires didn't stop those cars.

 

Dodge Brothers made a great car back then in the 1920's with all steel bodies, that is why they could roll it and keep on driving. Bob

 

No they don't that is why they had brakes. Bob

 

Wood spoke wheels took some abuse and held up. I have heard many say the model T front ends, yes I know that isn't a T, wouldn't work on todays roads...really.

Great video, people worked hard back then and so did there cars.

 

One of my grandfathers was a loyal Dodge Brothers owner. Bought a new one every 4-5 years during his life. I wonder if this is why?

 

I believe this is a prime indication as to why the early cars frames were made to flex. HRP

 

I know guys around here who wouldn't even consider putting their 4x4 rigs through that.

That was a real fun video to watch.

 

Reminds me of the old red neck "Hey guys watch this"! HRP

 

Looks like the potholes in Conn. right now!

 

That's pretty upsetting if you knew how many times I've got stuck on well lots in the work truck so far this winter.

 

I tried my first time at a link , didn't work go to youtube 1936 plymouth trial by torture

 

Skinny tall tires

 

Somebody has got to start a pre war mud run/trail ride.

Sent from my DROID device using the TJJ mobile app

 

Try that with a new Hondoyta

 

That was awesome! I had no idea that was possible.

 

How in the world did those skinny ass tires get through all of that mud?

 

Good One !! Got a buddy who still tortures his A like that...LOL...right Al ...

 

Hold my beer, we'll take the company car!!
