The Countryboy is not about any one subject, such as abandoned houses or cars or travel. My interests consist of many things that I enjoy sharing with interested viewers. I started this channel many years ago featuring just a van conversion and promised updates, which I will post at some point. The assembly of those travel adventures are taking more time than I had realized. Also featured was one of my cars, but the music that I chose, while at the time was free use, has since been claimed by the author so I deleted the video and re-posted without music. This means that I won't be adding music to any of my videos and have removed the music used for the Van conversion video. I am still looking for "channel art", but haven't found anything appropriate. As a viewer of my channel you will find abandoned properties, house tours, car and car shows, genealogical information and travel adventures. Thanks for taking the time to watch, please leave a comment, click "like" or subscribe!

    @@buggsmcgee9270 I'm sorry, but like many other explorers, I can't reveal locations. I've passed that place many times recently and can report that something is going on there - don't know what exactly. A storage building has been knocked down and an RV is occasionally parked behind the double-wide. If I hadn't received so many rude and obscene comments about that place I wouldn't have disabled comments, but that's the way things go sometimes. Thanks for your interest though.

    Hello this is not about the car! Just to let you know if you don't already know when you video tape the big Blue abandoned double-wide 6 yrs ago! There were a person in with you. Maybe a squatter or someone living there! They was there too! Glad they left you alone! But very scary stuff I was worry about you! Maybe because you were talking they knew where you were at? I saw them twice on your video! Please be safe when go to a abandoned houses or places! I couldn't leave a message on there because the comments were turn off! Thanks! 🙏💒

    Hi Betty, and thanks for your concern. That fellow was my cousin "Bud", who does not like to be on the video. I tried to make sure that when I caught him accidentally, I moved the camera. There is/was a very good reason that I turned off comments for the double-wide... I was receiving threatening, obscene messages from viewers. I receive permission to visit all the locations and they had no right to threaten me.

    I had a Aunt that had a 4 door Cosmo, she bought it brand new in 1950, guess she had some issue within a couple years with the power windows, these early ones were hydraulics and used like brake fluid in the lines, so somewhere about 52-53 she got rid of it.

    Yes, it sold - but the new owners only removed the three more modern cars and - oddly enough - removed all the windows in the house and have left it more exposed to the weather. I assume to allow it to rot further and fall apart.
