They were just a glorified Chevy Tahoe and suburban and pick up truck with the Cadillac name and emblems and all the Cadillac fancies stuff I’m talking about the large Cadillac suv in the very beginning of this video
People think I’m weird for going to the junkyard and hanging out. But HA! Now I know what a Chronometer is 😉. Anyways I had never seen one before so I thought it was cool feature
@@DoBee-d1k very true lot of pretty knarly lookin cars came out of the 70’s and early 80’s. But I’m to the point in life where I can appreciate most vehicles… except squatted trucks! 😂 Nope, never gonna understand that haha
You must know your way around that junk yard pretty goody now, I don’t see why you couldn’t lengthen the frame on an S-10 and use it on an old Chevy, everyone is shortening frames why not add some, later buddy 😀😀
First off, who ever wrote 1980 ford festiva on the car is wrong. It is a 1980 ford fiesta. I have a white 1980 ford fiesta. Also I had a 1992 ford festiva. After driving the festiva for a few years, I sold it and bought a 1997 ford aspire. All three car are about the same size, and made great gas mileage.
I can smell the rich Corinthian leather through my phone ..😂
Hahahahaha
Smell-o-Vision 😂
That ford truck has the bulletproof 300 inline 6, worth harvesting that engine there will never be anything made near as tough as that again
@@kellismith4329 I’ll check but it might be gone already

@@michealmccune7809 Ok that’s what I thought. lol 😂
Yup, you just paid a whole bunch extra for some fancy Caddy emblems
@@kellismith4329 yup
Yup 👍
BOOM BABY
Yeah 👍
The Cordoba was a good car in the day, had a 22-gallon tank.
@@JoeSmith-ov4go wow 22 gallons. That seems massive
No 60-66 chvey trucks but that old dent side ford was cool it was a 73-79 not sure what number out of them but somewhere in between the 7
My uncle had a 76 Cordova. It had round headlights, which looked much better than the square double stacked. His was lowered with some deep rims.
Thanks for the info. I didn’t know there was such thing as a Cordova until this week
Also did I get the name wrong is it Cordova or Cordova 🤣🤪
@TruckThisGarage nope, I got it wrong. Oops I got bad eyes.
@@JT-un7dc All good 👍. I get stuff mixed up or fat finger something wrong all the time
Of the moss variety 😅😂 hope your ankle is feeling better
My ankle is good. 👍
Cordobas rode really smooth for what they were. They came with the 318 or 400 like you showed. Unfortunately they were smog motors.
So that was a 400
Where is this place?
@@Hadfield420 Secret Honeyhole 😂 shh 🤫 haha
Looks like a pick n pull but I could be wrong 🤔
Cordobas cool, I like those malaise era cars tho
What’s Malaise Era?
I would take a Chrysler Cordoba any day over a hundred POS Toyotas! A clock or chronometer is a device that measures and displays time.
People think I’m weird for going to the junkyard and hanging out. But HA! Now I know what a Chronometer is 😉. Anyways I had never seen one before so I thought it was cool feature
What are you talking about a majority of those years of cars were crap. How about what they did to the El Camino! That was crap also!

I@@TruckThisGarage I agree with the squatted truck thing
🤣
You have a '66 Chevy truck? I had a very rusty one that I bought in Tacoma for $400, sold it a year later for $500. It was gold; do you have it?
@@ostrich67 Nothing gold on my 66’ Chevy but the Oldsmobile motor in it
Car snob.
@@gregneymeyer5220 nah just pokin’ fun. I’d rock that car for sure!

@@DesertRatFabricationWell when I finally get down a good system, they will probably rearrange everything 😂
Millenial opinions are GOLDEN COMEDY😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!!!
@@slotripper not sure what to think about that technically I roll up into the millennial category (1982) 😂
Chronometer is the digital clock
@@tuffy2342 Why not just put “clock” lol I don’t get it 😂
@@TruckThisGarage It's just a marketing thing. Just like Cadillac saying twilight sentinel when they could have just put headlight delay.
@@tuffy2342 I wasn’t around in the 70’s. I guess it was just good marketing then. Ok nice, now I understand thanks

@@gened7756 Nice thank you for the correct info.
@@TruckThisGarage I forgot to mention the 1978, 1979 and 1980 fiesta, came with a 4 cylinder engine.
@@gened7756 Good info thank you for your comment
that is a 300 6-cylinder
Getting a lot of positive vibes on these motors! I like it ☺️
Edsel and matador
@@markpaquette9631 I’ll keep an eye out for those models
I agree, the Cordoba was one of the ugliest and most boring cars ever!
@@rockettcustoms6266 oh I don’t know it had some cool features. I mean I Atleast it was a 2 door. 😂
300 6
What’s 300 6? Which vehicle you talking about?
@@TruckThisGarage 1:55 The Ford straight 6 is 300 cubic inches. Best truck gas engine ever made; it'll probably still run with a little coaxing.
@@ostrich67 oh ok now I see what your talking about. For sure! 6 in a row ready to tow 🥰
@@ostrich67 Darn Skippy
