FIELD OF DREAMS!!! NEGLECTED AND ABANDONED JUNKYARD FULL OF 1ST GEN CAMAROS AND MUSCLE CARS

- Field full of at least 25 first generation Camaros and other musclecars found sitting on a hidden property in SW Tennessee.
To myself, I find these cars almost beautiful in the state of condition there in. Somehow they esacaped the crusher, and they're still surviving. Each one with a history or story to tell. I find these videos that Patrick brings us, very strangely, more interesting than some of the recent car show videos seen here on You Tube. Maybe because they were not the lucky ones to have been pampered or garaged or sold at high auction. They've lived the hard life. I still can't see why anyone would collect these cars and letting them sit like this. But at least they're still here.
That's incredible and a terrible shame.

What’s address the junkyard
What price for Camaro 67
Wow. That’s a goldmine. Most look quite restorable. Lots of good parts.
I'm from England and love US muscle cars. I learn a lot from these types of films. Keep it up. 👍
*Thank you Mr. Nichols for another great video.*
That's a shame they're just left to rot he needs it passed them on to good homes that will restore them to their natural Glory
Whenever I see abandoned classic cars rotting away somewhere, I can’t help but wonder about the backstory to them. I wonder what memories they gave to people, all the places that car has gone and all the things it’s seen, and all the changes it’s witnessed all the way up until someone decided to park it for good. Or take their last ride in it before they parked it and eventually forgot about it. All of that is left as a mystery if the cars been sitting for long enough.
Another awesome video. I love seeing whats still out there just waiting to be repaired. It kills me when ppl say there are no more old cars left to be restored. The problem is they just dont wanna look. Thanx for showing us some more diamonds in the rough.
Problem with these is that it's too much damage to repair the rust,I'd like to done one that at least doesn't have holes in the body
No the problem, guys like this won't sell them
Mega ultra stash of great cars. The 66 Nova SS was my favorite car! Thanks a bunch for sharing
That's a dam shame all those beautiful classic muscle cars rotting away
Man that is something else i cant balieve how many first gen camaro's are in there how do you come across all this unreal man wow!!!! I love those cars all of them!!
Most of these classics were new when I was a driver/owner aged teenager, and now I feel as old as they look, after seeing this. Brings home my age! Amazing how a well restored driveable unit can knock those years off!
Some awesome treasures!!!! Thanks for sharing😎😎
Every time I see a video of a yard like this, I see people leaving derogatory remarks about the condition of the cars. In all honesty we should be thankful for people like this who managed to save any of this stuff.
Having worked in and around auto salvage since 1975, I can say the one thing that almost completely destroyed our hobby was known as "urban renewal" where the cities and then the small towns found out they could get federal and state funding for "cleanup" ie, hiring a building inspector to go around and force people to get rid of unlicensed or "derelict" vehicles. Maybe something simple was wrong with them, or the people didn't have the money to fix them or whatever; well that was declared a derelict vehicle, and it got ticketed and towed at the owners expense, nonsense that continues to this day. And to attempt to save any of these cars by themselves in a group usually brought out the local busybody wining about their "property values" and forcing a person to get rid of them. (Notice the privacy fence in this video...)
When I first started, I watched most of the 50's and 60's cars get scrapped. The money was in ticketing and towing. There was literally no place to save them. Anyone complaining about the cars not being sheltered should remember that if you build a structure it'll probably need to be insured . This looks like someone's private collection, back when the cars could be bought cheaply (relative to today).
Finally, if someone couldn't build some really cool rides out of what's shown, go buy yourself a trailer queen and be done with it.
Great collection! Great video! Thanks! 👍
Well i am not an adult or know The owner of this Yard, but sometimes i have nightmares where i can clearly See how these cars got to this yard
I agree with your statement, however if someone went to him with a fair market price and he is a true lover of the muscle car, then one would think he would sale just to see it go back to it's glory
Letting them rot is just sinful....
If I had Bill Gates type of money. That entire lot of classics would be fully restored
If you had Bill Gates $$$ you would buy complete mint condition cars.
Facts
@@mikekellyiniowa nah you don't understand. These cars have to be saved. Can't let them die
Hello to France !
Incredible video. Very nices cars ! Thank you to give us a pure pleasure moment !
Thanks for all your work.😀
I love your videos Patrick! Keep em coming...
"another one is on the way" Lol
Proof you can't take your idols with you on Judgement Day
Exactly!
Very cool Thanks Patrick keep up the great work
Another great video Pat! Keep up the good work. I love your videos.
Never in my life heard of leaves being that damn loud holy shit 😳
Omg...a 68 charger just setting there wasting away
Excellent job as always. Keep them coming.
Patrick, haha this is absolutely amazing. It's beyond imagining. You must do a ton of legwork and research to find these places. Thank you, and happy holidays to you!
Another estate sale to watch out for.
Anyone local ought to keep an eye on the obits...
Sad they sit an rot.
I'd buy that white Nova in a heartbeat but he'd rather let it rust to a pile.
I think EVERYBODY Would buy the Chevy II!! LOL!!
My First(Driving) Car was a 67 Chev II with a 327/T400 and Posi Diff. Wasn't Original but Fun to Drive!! 2 Accidents(Fault of Other Drivers) Killed the Car! The First Acc took out the Entire Left Side and the Second was Nearly Head-On!! Settlement $$ Paid for my 1st 68 SS Chevelle in 87-Still have It! Now I KNOW how to Fix Cars(Mechanical/Metal Fab) and Wish I'd Bought the Nova from the Ins Co!! Happy Holidays!
It is tied up in a bank lein
The guy told me he would only sell every car and the property all at once and no exceptions.
@@patrickglennnicholsmusclec1674 Well-Start taking Info on WHO Wants Which Car! Get ALL These Viewers to Step Up and Follow thru with Their Boasts! There's GOTTA BE Some High Rollers that Watch Your Videos! ;)
An absolutely beautiful yard. Just like an old graveyard. Quiet country, peaceful beautiful!
Wow, what a Hoard of Camaros!! Thx for Giving a Second Look at Most of the Cars!
The guy probably didn't have 10 grand into the whole collection back in the day..
Forget about everything else!! I just saw a 95 z28 convertible with an LT1, 6speed and Borla exhaust at 2:23 Now That's A Real Crime hehe... Hey thanks for the vid it really hurts to see true American Muscle in such despair!!
Eighties Nut. I have and own a 1995 z/28 t-top 383 LT1 6 speed SLP loudmouth exhaust and all reinforced framework anyway had most of those cars when I was a teenager to late 20's. They were a dime a dozen then. 🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧
Makes me happy that these places do still exist
Love all your videos thanks for what you do
"I'm gonna fix em up someday"
Famous last words
No shit
Yup saving for their grandson to fix up!?
The reason there are people like that is because cities want them to crush the cars and sell the land for development so they wont give them a business licence. The moment they sell a car or part they swoop in and these guys know it.
I’d love to have the 66 nova, had one as a kid.
So much potential
awesome vid thanks for sharing , great to know there's a chance to find future projects ! cheers
Great video Thanks!!
Why would some one let all those car just set and rot. I have a 67 Camaro that I worked on for 40 years to get it how I wanted it. Thanks for the video.
+mark rylander You're obviously NOT a car Guy. So , Fuck OFF & leave others to do their thing.
@mark rylander , damn, son...You've never built a car before, have you? Sometimes it takes as long as it takes. You change jobs, lose jobs, get the ol' ball-and-chain knocked up; life happens and it can get in the way of any project. Sometimes you get it running and drive it that way til you can save and do some more to it, because it's your daily driver. Sometimes you rebuild the same car over and over again. You beginning to feel me now...?
Patrick, ... cryin’ shame just waiting to be rescued... ESPECIALLY the 67’ Nova 327🤟🏻. Excuse me ... the white 66’🇺🇸
Thanks so much, its nice to see...
Nice find! Great video
While I love these videos you do it always baffles me that people leave good iron out to rot away to nothing, for no reason other then they don’t want anyone else to have it. You have to admit it’s got to be hard to see. Either way keep doing what you do, gives me faint hope of owning even one old muscle car someday
That's because they say, "I'm going to fix it up." Thirty years later they are still saying that.
You need to market yourself to the Discovery channel and the new Motor Trend Channel. You could find these cars for the plethora of hot rodding and resto-modding and restoration shows on these channels. You could get paid to find these cars for the networks to bring on their shows for custom restorations
Wow!!!!! It's a shame that they're just left outside like that to rot. I don't know the owner's situation but he's dropping the ball man. The more I watch the more disappointing it gets it's just so sad. Thank you Mr. Glen for the video man those cars deserve better!.
Very neat collection
I wonder how many of the first generation Camaros in this video could still be salvaged.
I bet that's in Hartford Tennessee cause every time i pass by that town it just makes me sad people just letting classics sit and rot😢
Thanks for sharing, 👍😎
Sad to see them all rusting away😥 Thanks for sharing it with us Patrick. Lots of those would be easily restored.
A pole barn made from salvaged lumber. And tin would protect these cars money in the bank , more interest then a savings account at 2 percent return!
Please send me junk yard info I’d like to buy a couple of those Car’s
Love your channel Patrick
Very nice nice find , I sure could use some parts for my 68 Camaro out of there. I have started with worse Donors than those in the past. Thanks for Sharing !
I thought I saw a charger in there. Damn I'd love to have that!
I would drag that Chevelle and not charger out of there in a heartbeat f*** what the owner says he should be ashamed of himself letting history rust away
Love that Charger! Cougar would be nice or that '62 or 3 Studebaker. The rest...Yawn.
That's the most favourite Camaro 1st Gen
Patrick,just keep doing what you do. Its easy to think all these cars are gone,but their not.
Great find!!!👍🏼 i want a camaroooo!!🤤
OMG LOVE THE VIDEO ! Want to hurt the owner, camaro’s are my passion and this video hurt 😢 first car when I was 16 was a 68 plain Jane , old lady passed & I got it for $700 - wish i still had it !!
What happened to it?
Sold it in my stupidity & bought an 82 4 speed - person who bought it wrecked it :(
Videos like this one gives me anxiety tremendously but yet again here I am 🤬
I love the guys accent. .......he could read the weather report ten times....and I'd still be listening...
Great find. Love the pictures. We are restoring a 69 Camaro.
i wonder if the 66 nova is a L79 car
That's what I thought. The mighty mouse 327/350
@@wrdjr10gmail and that 327/350 was really about 375hp. But those 66-67 Chevy Duece L79 cars may have well have been 500hp with the torque they produced and way they ran out. But damn that next gen Nova was a hooking machine.
It looked like an a/c condenser laying on the floor . I heard very few came with factory air
Love this videos 👍💪
You , blow my mind ! I love first ; (1st. ) gen - camaros ! You take me , to places i only dream about ! Thank you ; an god bless
Yard art. Mass Grave site. ?
Beautifully said
Let me guess none of it's for sale right?
Right none.
No, he's going to restore them for his grandson that he doesn't have.
@@randygreen8916 Ha ha ha
Yeah, he's gonna "fix 'em up one day."😉👌 Of course, that day never comes.
Id love to have that charger
Great walk around 👍
Found a stock 1 owner 67 Nova SS 327 2 speed (90+ mph in 1st) bone stock 0-60 6 secs all day, 141 mph top speed. Did not turn or stop fast ;).
Makes me cry when some people horde stuff that others would appreciate and keep alive. Instead, let the stuff sit outside with windows open, not roof etc. just rotting away. Might as well be in a junkyard about to get parted out or crushed.
jason kinney I bet the titles have all been lost. Remember, without a title, you own nothing.
@@leejackson4724 I need more tissues :)
I bet when he dies the wife sells them for scrap.
guy must be cracking up
Incredible collection.
I'm a 67 68 69 firebird/trans am guy but everything that I've seen so far has been bad ass in all the videos
iron ore mined in the early sixties, melted with 6,000 degree Fahrenheit temperature, carbon mixed in with iron ore to make sheet steel , the sheet Steel pressed with tons of force to make fenders, doors, quarter panels, hoods trunk lids and roofs, thicker Steel to make frames and leaf springs, iron ore reheated to casts engine blocks, heads, intakes, sand melted to make Windows, years pass, everything turns back into rust or iron ore, this guy is a iron ore Miner only he's working in the wrong pit
Alright, Alright,Alright!
It was like he could see into the future and knew exactly what to keep
I Love Camaro’s , I’ve watched this video at least a dozen times in past couple days
I feel like I just got back from a strip club
I need a shower..😂
hey Patrick could you. Give me the info where they are exactly are they for sale so i could go and by something there my way to get in touch with me is through utube moma91238@gmail.com that is my email address i would appreciate a word back on this i like your show dude keep it going two thumbs up Terry
You should come and video my ex father in laws place here in alabama. His yard is as good or better than this one. Hes been buying them up since 78. With about 100 or more chevelles, camaros and novas.. i need to get u his info
What part of alabama? I am in Prattville.
Are they 4 sale
We're right outside Birmingham. But shoot no. He won't sell anything, he's a hoarder bad... And half of em are sittin outside ruining.. He has maybe 15 of the rarer vettes , camaros and chevelles in barns and his basement . but the ones outside are like 70 and 71 ss cars, camaro convertibles, 67-69. Few pace cars too. Pace car vettes, a 67 427 425 horse tri power vette.. A all original matching number 68 rs/ss 396/375 horse 4 speed camaro. Few 67-72 trucks. Couple with big blocks in em too, 67 427 impala ss, few other small block ss impalas, 65,6,7,8,9 ss chevelles. Some convertibles. Just a few of everything seems like.. The last few chevelles we sold him last year haven't moved since he bought em .
Manson Dinger nah
Sick dude. His intention is to just let them rot?
Awesome ! I remember when these cars were new...
Great job showing all those nice cars. I really hope they all end up in someones garage. By the way, do you now own that white 66! It seemed to really catch your eye. It was a beauty. Thanks for another awesome vid.
😢
Haha.."Lot of leaves on the ground"...don't want to wake the Rottweiler lol
Suddenly I hungry for Frosted Flakes
crunch, crunch... they're G R E A T
Nice video! Interesting that he has what appears to be a competition orange 1969 Cougar Eliminator hidden in the mix of early Camaros!
I always loved roaming through junkyards
So instead of him being known as the guy who let these beauties rot into the ground he could be remembered as the guy who let people bring them back to life for generations to enjoy sad
Disappointed and disgusted
Awesome find. I just watched your video. Insane find. It was cool enough for me to subscribe. Keep it up. I may get in contact with you in the future.
Thank you Patrick first gen Camaro is my favorite my dad bought a 68 new I can still remember the smell of the interior didn’t see any ZL 1 9560 copo
Sad....what's the point? So many can be restored.
So you can say " yeah I have this car and that car" . What a complete waste, when he dies someone will sell them for way too much and then they'll just sit again.
I’m Canadian and I like to say one thing why do you tease people with these vehicles,and you don’t give any addresses what is the reason for that, You are just as bad as the people that have the vehicles, do you think you’re going to get them all. Greed on
This guy needs GOLDBERG'S JACKHAMMER😎👊🏻
Amazing ,,, loving it ,,,
Wow this cars are beautiful that's a gold mine.
I wish I could snap my fingers and make them all brand new again.
Almost christmas...can i have all those under my tree
What an AWESOME VIDEO
Great video ! If you combined the cars from my high school parking lot with the cars my dad, brother and i owned around the same time and put them in a yard it would look just about like this ! Hell just our house alone looked pretty close to this yard.
The good old days.
Old fart could make a ton of money, but nooooooo he will get to restoring them, just like he told his wife back in the 70’s “ don’t worry I’ll restore them next year”
ChipCool We need automotive eminent. domain.
blackericdenice genius
No, he didn't buy them to restore. He bought them to sit around until he thinks the price is high enough to get rich off it. If he had one or two, possibly three of them, that would make the restoration of one or two story plausible. I remember when people started buying these up in the late 80's because of the direction cars were going in the late 70's and early 80's due to strict government regulations. Then, old skool muscle came back big in the 90's, along with stupid high prices and these were going for high dollar. It peaked around 1996-1997 and hasn't come back like that since. Probably won't either, given the current crop of Challengers, Mustangs, Camaro's, Corvettes, etc. Restored versions of many of these can be had for as little as $30k. This guy missed the Camaro lottery boat by a couple of decades.
That yard looks fairly well kept up these cars are not just rotting out.
@Babylon falling Amen bro!!
Nothing will ever happen to them. Might as well take a monster truck through there. Would love to see the look on people’s faces.
What's the history of this find Looks more of a PICK A PART
That could be an epic viral video!!
2 things could happen. The owner will pass away and the family will bring in a scrap dealer. That happens quite a bit. We car people see great old cars but the vast majority only see rusty piles of junk. The other thing that happens is the family will bring in an auction house which brings all the money bags out to over pay for a rusty shell, further putting cars like these out of the reach of the average guy like me. Oh well
These places would be a fairytale if it wasn’t for you on the hunt for these amazing finds. Thanks for all your hard work to show us that these cars really do exist in the back woods of America.
WOW thanks for this it's sad to see but atleast we know there are places like this maybe someone like you could persuade owners like this to sell and save car's like this.🏁🇺🇸😎
This what greedy selfish owners do charge you to much for parts then let them rot!!!
