When I first arrived in SoCal from the Midwest in March of '81, one of the first things that stood out to me (other than the difference in weather and everything being colorful and in bloom in March) was how many cars from the early '70s and late '60s were driving around and in such great shape. I honestly thought at first that maybe there had been a nearby car show or parade or something but I soon realized they were just daily drivers. There weren't many 10 - 15 year old daily drivers on the streets back east in '81, and the few that were still around were eaten up by rust. Now, of course, 20+ year old daily drivers aren't unusual even in the Midwest so the difference isn't as noticeable other than the presence or lack of rust, but I still see more older daily drivers here in SoCal than on my visits back east, especially ones that look nearly new, including every once in a while an unrestored 50 - 60+ year old driver. There's an unrestored '55 Chevy wagon I see running around here pretty regularly, obviously just out running errands on a weekday. No rust but the aqua paint is long faded.

I've owned over 40 cars since the mid '70s, many of them back when I lived in the Midwest (now in CA). Although all cars back then rusted much quicker and worse than vehicles today, the rustiest vehicle I ever owned was a '79 Toyota I bought when it was less than ten years old. I got it just as a snow car and work commuter and paid only $1000 for it so I wasn't picky about how it looked, and the interior was in great shape, but what a rust bucket. It ran well and got good mileage though, which was all I needed to allow me to keep my better, newer car garaged and out of the salt and snow. Japanese vehicles from that era had notoriously poor corrosion resistance in the snow belt.

Unfortunately 56% of Californians' income goes toward real estate expenses like rent or mortgage. Combine that with a minimum 10% tax on everything including food and clothing (not every state taxes necessities) and that makes it really expensive, which is why so many are moving out of state.

This footage is obviously near completion of the 405- it looks like one direction (south?) is up on the interstate portion, but this footage is of the other way now occupying what had been the old road in both directions- the explanation of the double yellow line being ignored.

Yes. It was filmed in 1964, all of the four lanes were going north in their perspective instead of the regular two lanes, and Sepulveda was closed for that exact purpose with cars like the Green 1958 Plymouth Plaza Sedan and the Blue 1932 Bentley 2.5 Litre Roadster.

I grew up when they were building the 405 freeway. I lived on Sepulveda between Exposition and National. Nice video, best times with music with the Bobby Fuller 5. It is amazing that someone had the idea to film this footage, because those were the good old days, carefree and simplistic.. Those were real all metal cars, not these plastic junk cars.

1:40 starts southbound Sepulveda Bl. exiting the tunnel underneath Mulholland Dr. 2:04 is the intersection of Skirball Center Drive which connects to Mulholland Dr. I wish I could go back in time and take Skirball Center Drive to my home which was in existence back in 1964. It is located less than a mile from this intersection.

I remember! I remember when most freeways were actually what the word means. And you also felt free to see what was all around you. There weren't the ubiquitous walls blocking your view. Graffiti was only seen in lower-income neighborhoods, not on walls or buildings near the freeway. Never thought L.A. would decay into the cesspool like most democrat run cities.
@zorroalphonso4354
7 жыл бұрын
If true, that means all US cities are "democrat-run", because urban decay is everywhere. The reason for urban decay is in the failed capitalist system, not to be blamed on only one of the factions, be it "democrat" or "republican". Those two factions make up a single party system, the business party, and BOTH should be blamed for American decay, letting millions of US jobs to be deported to Latin America, China, and elsewhere.

It is true. Just do a cursory examination of the cities with high crime rates. I don't know what you mean by failed capitalist system. The way in which democrats have carried out their policies, yes...they have failed it. It didn't begin 20 or 30 years ago. It began much earlier than that, and perhaps with good intentions. But the capitalist system is not evil in and of itself. The kinds of policies and the way in which they're implemented are the problem, not the capitalist system.

@egmjag, America's golden age concluded in the late 1970s -- i.e., the era of American made products, America the manufacturer, unionized jobs, and lots of domestic Federal spending came to an end. Starting in the 1980's the era of deregulation, tax-cuts, outsourcing, and perpetual warfare became the standard with the Reagan Revolution. And we're still in this era of deregulation, tax-cuts, outsourcing, and perpetual warfare. Although I believe such terrible policies are coming to an end -- as they are not sustainable nor popular for the long haul. @Zorro Alphonso, You're absolutely right. Essentially capitalism has been fleeing: US, Europe, and Japan. Capitalism is like a locust -- it only remains as it has used all valuable resources, then bounces off. Or, better yet, when things have become saturated for the locust to really make it hard to function. Emerging economies/countries are always capitalism best friend whereas established countries/economies are its enemy. Both political parties are to blame for what has happened. Ultimately, we the people have allowed for both political parties and for mega donors to control our politics/policies. That will change soon as the "musical chair" game cannot sustain itself forever, something has to give.
