Looks great after 48 years.

That's when Car Manufacturers used GOOD Paint...LACQUER!!!

Thank you for saving this piece of history. Far too many classics sit for decades with owners that wish they could restore them but will never have the means to do so and the vehicle rots away.

1950 Chevy, 1940 Plymouth 1959 Ford, 1968 Chevy, 1963,64 Plymouth, 1962 VW, 1968 Datsun, 1970 Triump. All these cars had enamel paint. The optional paint for some cars was lacquer which was hard paint, no flex, didn't expand or contract and though it had more luster it was a problem as it aged. Later is when acrylic enamel showed up.

48 years in the barn. The colour even had not got oxidized yet. Perfect car.

God I wish they still made cars like this today

Thank you for saving that classic a lot of people don’t realize how important they are to society in history a lot of people like ruining them and doing stupid shit to them so please keep it all original because when they take away the gas, those are the only cars that they’re gonna allow to people to keep

Pressure washer helped a lot. Simply incredible how that car looks after cleaning. 👍

я в восторге. нежность и теплота, ушедшая эпоха восхитительных автомобилей.

Holy Hell!!! Someone that knows how to properly use a buffer and compound, and not leave swirls in the paint. 👍💯

It is the speciality of classic vehicles They were great in that time and a gem now 💚

Beautiful dude! She just seems to wanna say THANK YOU!!

The color is stunning! Looks like a slime green, so nice to be revealed again!

WOW that green is awesome. It looks outstanding. Great job 👍

Wow, you're a lucky guy. I like how you were so cautious and detailed with it. I'm guessing those thick layers of dust protected the paint. It cleaned up really nice.

I had a 1951 sedan delivery. A drunk driver ended its life but it protected me. RIP Big Red.

The manufacture of the past is better, more beautiful and more precise than today. This car, after all the years, looks like the manufacture of today ❤

I doubt that car was standing 48 yrs almost no rust and that paint didn't even fade it still looks very good.

I was glad to see that first rinse was gentle. There's a youngster with some restraint. Good to see... She's a beauty.

Gonna say that's 51,/52 Chevy. As a young child around 5/6 yrs old I learned how hard the dashboard was. My parents and I were headed home from visiting relatives in west TX. It was dark and I was asleep between my parents.It was dark,Dad was driving.I had my head on my mother's lap,lo and behold there was a cow standing broad side in our lane.I wound up in the floorboard,with a big ol goose egg on my head. That happened bout 65 years ago.

Gorgeous! I love the green color!

It's good to see young chaps like you starting a business like you've got. I wish you much success. Great job with that car.

My parents owned a 1949 yellow Chevy Convertible that we took with us when we moved to Japan in 1950. It caused quite a stir when we went driving around the country. They sold it for $7,000 usd before we returned to the states in 1953. Loved that car.

Old is gold good painting

Man, what a great color too. Greetings from Detroit.

I had the identical car to this one in the Oldsmobile model. I bought it from a junkyard for $125 and the fellow who ran it said the lady who brought it and said no one had ever sat in the backseat. It was in pristine condition, it ran like Swiss watch and was the sweetest car I ever owned. I made the mistake of loaning into my brother-in-law who ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere and abandoned it and I never saw it again. 48 years later and I’m still bummed about that.

She deserves your attention. She looks pretty good after all that time.

Yes, There is nothing like a Good Cleaning and light buff now and again.

This is a masterpiece

It looks this great after 48 years because it's made of real steel, not cheap crappy recycled metal and plastic. DETROIT'S FINEST!!!!!!!

That's just amazing 👏, those days they manufactured real cars with that beautiful emerald green finish 😍 I love vintage cars so stylish and pure perfection 🥰

is that the first paint ? looks like metallic !

Green was the color of choice on Chevy’s by far in the early 50’s

That must have been so pleasing to see that colour coming through, and well, at the end! So worthwhile! 👍

1966 license tag. Beautiful paint job, even after all those years and layers of grime.

Умели же делать раньше, не то что сейчас 😮😮😮

Вот это капсула времени в идеальном состоянии 👍

Love the old cars. That is back when they actually built cars. Not like cars of today with all the plastic and carbon fiber.

in the old days i payed 25$ for a 52 Chevy and it ran ,,,, good times

The car, covered in hay and bird droppings, has undamaged paintwork and nickel-plated parts without traces of corrosion...I willingly believe it! (Sarcasm!) Bird droppings, which even corrode the paint of missile-carrying cruisers that can withstand heating up to 1200 degrees Celsius, did not even leave a stain🤦‍♂️ Either these are technologies of a lost civilization, or the guy learned “restoration” from Thai bloggers who “restore” computers by washing them with running water, by reverse installation😁

Dust can protect the paint very well if humidity is not too high 💯 👍

48 yrs and the color is still fresh insane!!

Красавица!... сколько же ты этого ждала!... 👍

The paint still looks amazing!

Красота!!! Самые красивые автомобили делали именно в это время.

in 70 years the current cars we're driving might be getting this same amount of attention and care

Wow! It’s amazing what you own cover when you clean something up. Lots of hard work, but it paid off. What a beautiful car.

Не многие из этих старичков дожили до современных автомоек. Этому красавчику повезло и он дожил

Wow. I wonder how many modern cars would last that long

Absolutely gorgeous car. I would give my right arm for it

Ahhh, Now I’m good for another 48years…. Good job Brother 👍 Keep em Living ❤

Me and my brother took a 49 Chevy and put it on a 94 Impala SS rolling chassis... best of both worlds.

Good job finding it and saving it it's a beautiful car 👍

Doc Hudson looks good after years at Radiator Spring.😊😊😊

I don't usually like green. But that green is just beautiful.

Ohh what I’d give to own a car like that. Love the colour too

1951 Chevy Bel Air Hardtop

Probably wouldn't want to use water, let alone a pressure washer on old single stage paint. Single stage paint is very thin, also water can get into small cracks in the paint where it can't be dried off, leading to rust bubbles and rust forming on the steel. Very clean and complete though, treasure it.

Today's cars found in a barn 40 years from now will get washes away by a pressure washer.

In my city, I saw many of these being destroyed with an ax in the 70s. Fortunately, some were saved as they were hidden.

Cor espetacular. É para admirar cada cantinho.

1960’s paint jobs holding up better than year 2000 jobs

Wow, the before and the after are like night and day. That car cleaned up well. Nice job. Love from Marysville California

Que hermoso auto, nada hay mejor que un clásico! 😊😊😊😊

That's amazing and love the steps you took to gradually get it clean so it wouldn't get scratched with all the dirt. 😎

From a run down old banger to a beautiful vintage style car!!!

That's a beautiful car and a good paint . U always find a good cars 😊

Просто сказка!

Wow. That Chevy is whole.

All things considered, that old car looks great!

That paint is in incredible condition!

Que relíquia. Maravilhoso ❤️

Da gosto de ver esses tipo de carros o verdadeiros carros 👍

Absolutely beautiful 😊 The paint they use today won't last more than a few years. 😢

Una joya , felicidad para el dueño..😊

Love that green! That’s a great car. Great video.

Back when cars had quality and style

Este si es un buen carro y no las cosas de plastico de hoy en dia , una buena pieza para coleccionistas.

in India two buckets of water is enough to clean any car☠️

Barn fine without bird droppings Paint looks great

Türkiye de foşur foşur yıkadım diyerek video çekerler. 😂 vallahi araba muhteşem efsane klasik.

Other than the rust on the bumpers that Chev is awesome.

I swear old cars have personality man they just cool as ice baby

I'm amazed by how well the green paint held up

It us a beautiful find, how lucky you are!

Keep in mind that those old window gaskets and seals WILL be gone if you hit them with a pressure washer.. I have old cars.. trust me on this..😢

The paint is amazing for a 70 year-old car.

I'm european. Japanese make the best bikes. Italians make the most beautiful cars and bikes BUT americans make the best cars.

Brings back memories! Nicely done! 👍🖖

I had two of these cars in the 70's they are awesome and strong. A mustang hit my back fender well..... Nothing happened to me but tore that mustang up😂🤣😂🤣😂.... 🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲

It looks like a 1951 Chevrolet deLuxe. My neighbor drove a similar one, only in light blue. It was beautiful and probably the only one in Gdynia at that time.

I would not say that they were abandoned because obviously they look like they were in storage of some kind. So you could say that there were a barn find but not abandoned because they would be outside and very rusty.

I’m glad it did not rust!❤

Complimenti x il lavoro hai recuperato uno spettacolo degli anni che furono, buon lavoro x il recupero totale e vedrai come ti invidieranno❤❤❤

That’s a beautiful car. Such a nice colour. Would that be the original paint?

People in USA : wow 48 years old car People in India: oo ye damaal movie ki car hai😂😂

Good job bro...cars like tgat deserve all the t.l.c.they get plus our respect to the men that built them

Сам являюсь владельцем автомобиля 1960го года. Всегда смотрю такие видео до конца.

Prime, paint, coating and paintwork of HIGH QUALITY

That’s either a 53 or 54…I couldn’t see a full side profile. I drove my BF’s green 53, shift on the column, back in the late 60’s. He also had a red and white pop top 57 T bird and an orange 57. He and his brother restored cars every summer.
