Every now and again a mk 1 escort turns up but to see multiple 2 doors along with estates is amazing. Add in the capris, cortina gt and an Escort Nimbus Camper for good measure, an amazing find!
Some good stuff there and lots of bits to put smiles on oily hands ha shame to see um in that state but those were the days cortina escort capris top stuff.
Great find mate loads of good stuff mixed in with all the other crap there must be a fortune hid in there. Very interesting place though a moochers paradise. 👍🇬🇧
I had a Ford Elba camper van, conversion by Dormobile. I bought it from a scrapyard over 30 years ago! It was on the top of a pile! Needed an engine, gearbox, two front wings, a bit of welding but I got it back on the road! God knows what it’s worth now if it is still about!
n hi m8 now that is defo 10 out of 10 not just cars vans but rotavators stationery engines scaffolding ect ect that person is a hoarder and has good gear thanks for the share
@@jerryexplores7587 I used to have a MK2 escort a MK3 cortina and a MK 4 cortina back in the late eighties, early nineties. I preferred the MK3 cortina though.
My dad had a MK2 Cortina, and I was the owner of a MK2 1300 GL Escort 1979, that my dad bought brand new, then sold it to my elder brother, who then sold it to me, and I in turn sold it to my sister in law’s brother, who wrecked it. What a darn shame because it had been really looked after, getting wax oiled underneath every 2 years and was still pretty unmarked when I sold it in 1988.
My MK 2 Escort was a Friday afternoon car. It kept going wrong and had it broken into 7 times in 4 years. Worst mistake I made was buying it. It was W reg last of the MK2.
@@Mad109R I totally get that. All the time I could afford a Mk2 RS2000 I wanted newer cars like Golf GTi's etc Now I lust after an RS I'd have to sell 1 of my kids to get it 😂😂
It's the usual story Jerry as they were worth nothing when parked up and now mint they would be worth a fortune. As mentioned previously this place indeed has a bit of everything and I could easily spend a day there. So sad to see this but I would of definitely knocked on the door though. Any Campervan or Golf GTi updates ? Thanks for sharing 🙏 ☕👍
Awesome video Jerry mate I remember when Stokze did this video what an incredible place it’s shame there all just sat there they definitely need saving for sure mate
Unbelievable Jerry 😮 didn't know the Corsairs, Transits and the other cars were there nearer the house!! The green doors were off a Corsair!! Mk3 'tina GT needs saving!! Great vid 👍
When I was a teenager in late 60s early 70s a chap that lived two doors down from us bought a Escort mk1 camper brand new, my dad borrowed it a couple of times and we all went out for the day
On one hand it’s sad to see these cars in such a state…but, on the other hand at least they are still in existence. They could have been cubed years ago, just hope some can be saved soon before there’s nothing left.
Whoever owns those cars can’t care about them otherwise they wouldn’t be letting them rot outside like that. There’s historically important cars there. So sad. Thanks for the video it’s superb 👍
I don't understand why people just leave classic fords or any cars just to rot that's a 2 door mk1 escort as well but looks past repair as looking like it's deep in the ground and the Capri looks in better shape but you don't know good few fords every where i feel sick the person has junk piled up everywhere as well I know they wasn't alot back then but now people pay silly money I couldn't ever afford one now it's truly shocking 🤯😭
Amazing find, what a waste! Great content, you must have invested in bramble proof trousers 👍 worth a door knock, the owner might want to sell some of them….
The orange capri got me thinking i remember being bout 19 banging some ones door for it £300 they said there be happy with it sat there years after as i never brought it , bet it got scraped
hi there , i ran the plate of the camper van and the mot expired last on record in 2007 for an indicator failure , miles on the clock listed on mot was 1180
If I started filling my garden with old fridges and washing machines the neighbours would soon complain and the council would have me remove them. Then you get these yards out in the sticks full of scrap, plastics and hazardous substances that have been there 40 years or more leaking into the ground and the water system.
We’d all like to see them saved and under cover etc, you do also have to appreciate this guy has bought them and stored them away from the scrap man and banger idiots , he obviously loves old cars, just think they almost definitely wouldn’t be around had he not collected them, could be better kept yes but we’d all like massive sheds eh?
Now that's a hoarder shame to see how Meny mk1 escorts and Capri and mk1 transit .. they are just wish people like this would like them to be saved and not rotten away
That red toolbox on the Triumph looked brand new. It looked like one of those really cheapo toolkits that you wouldn't mind leaving behind if you had to. I suspect a few bits are going to go missing on the poor old Fords in the very near future. It's a sad situation when you have places like these, where the owners probably refuse to sell anything when asked, but also never do anything with it and let it all rot. Eventually these places attract the explorers, the thieves and the vandals. Sadly, places and cars like this rarely have a happy ending...that P100 and a couple of those Mk1 shells didn't look too bad either. Lots of other interesting stuff hoarded away there too. Do you know if anyone has ever spoke to the landowner?
If Reg No is original that is a Gloucestershire number.Probably supplied by Victory Motors Cheltenham or Taylors of Gloucester....(now called Bristol Street Motors)......
Where on earth would one start trying to sort that lot out. I suppose you would need space beside to start digging in with extended forks. I can imagine there being an absolute fortune in there with that cortina fetching over 5K as it is.
@@jerryexplores7587 Maybe he’s old and lost interest a few years back. That said it doesn’t look like there was any organisation when putting everything there in the first place.
People like that annoy me, why, just why do they leave these old cars to just rot away, if they're not interest in them Anymore just send them go to auction and let other people with amazing skills restore them or at least do something with them.
Unbelievable, what is going to be done with them ?? Did you get permission if so are you going to get the cars moved on , such a waste just rotting there 😢

not forgetting Corsairs
my Dad had 2 of these early 1970s

It's incredible to see how much junk some people can accumulate and leave it to rot.

What the hell is wrong with people letting classic cars like those go to rot?
It really beggers belief. It's so heart breaking to see.
It makes me sad because I love mk1 escorts as I had one for my first car back 1989. 😢

I used to have a MK2 escort a MK3 cortina and a MK 4 cortina back in the late eighties, early nineties. I preferred the MK3 cortina though.
I had 4 mk1 escorts and a capri but never a cortina.

Many of them need saving man thats just so sad to see so many car's ❤ love my escorts too. That camper is a gem ❤
I love watching your exploring and enjoy them very much.. Thank you 👍👍
Cheers mate 👍
As a petrolhead and an Escort fan as it's what I grew up with in the 70's and 80's this is just heartbreaking!
That old Corsair too...tragic!
Yer so sad😢
Same here & when I think of the cars that have been through my hands for a few hundred quid back then I could cry.
@@Mad109R I totally get that.
All the time I could afford a Mk2 RS2000 I wanted newer cars like Golf GTi's etc

I always wished mk1 escorts would be made new again, RST do now but you need to be a lottery winner to buy one.

Cheers. Yer, I'm meeting Stokze on Thursday he wants to go back there again.
It brings tears to your eyes seeing all them cars just rotten away
The last 2 cars you kept calling cortinas were corsairs. Love corsairs .
Yer, I realised they were corsairs when I got to the top.
yep 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is incredible Jerry. So sad to see these once great cars like this. I’m so glad I hit ‘all notifications’ on your videos! Cheers, Brian. 👍🇬🇧
Cheers mate 👍
Unbelievable Jerry 😮 didn't know the Corsairs, Transits and the other cars were there nearer the house!! The green doors were off a Corsair!! Mk3 'tina GT needs saving!! Great vid 👍
Cheers mate 👍 yer they need saving
It’s the mentality… I know someone like this he just wants to ‘own’ them doesn’t want to do anything with them & won’t sell them… madness 🤪
Whoever owns these is sitting on a few quid,get them sold to enthusiasts and enjoy the money.
Good job losers like you didn’t say that 20 years ago 😂
Thousands of pounds just rotting away .
Could be deceased with no family.
exactly

SDD300G is a 1969 1300 escort. Originally white! Last V5 2012.
Great video, and as a mk1 owner I find it crazy that they’re still just sat there, but I didn’t think @imstokze ever gave out these locations??
He doesn't usually, but I'm a friend .
Nice work & video👍
Great video 👍

Now that capri is a bit special 😍 but that blue escort wow I’d donate organs to own one
Looks like a old Builder yard
That mk3 gt needs pulling out and saving what a shame
Yer, it's lush. I would love it.

Date of first registration October 1982
Year of manufacture 1982

That red car is a Ford Corsair very rare

The orange capri got me thinking i remember being bout 19 banging some ones door for it £300 they said there be happy with it sat there years after as i never brought it , bet it got scraped
I would give a 100 grand for the lot even if it takes years to pick through that lot amazing find
that k reg cortina on the trailer is in good nick, al bet it`s a runner as well.?
hi there , i ran the plate of the camper van and the mot expired last on record in 2007 for an indicator failure , miles on the clock listed on mot was 1180
15:45 - I think those are Corsairs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, they are
It’s so sad to see all those Cement Mixers just rotting away among all that other Junk… Heartbreaking.
😄
You were right, piles and piles of junk everywhere, ford rot boxes. Everyone of them.
The escorts were cool , but I’d take the 2 corsairs given the chance
Very nice cars
Orange crappy had a roll bar, probably had engine mods

I am going back to ask about the cars and see if they are for sale.
Cortina GT MK3 love it please gift it to me lol
I know I need a bit of a clear-out at home but how ever do people get into this kind of state?
Yeah mate same as that, and I thought I’d accumulated lots of crap over the years 😂
need to save it
If Reg No is original that is a Gloucestershire number.Probably supplied by Victory Motors Cheltenham or Taylors of Gloucester....(now called Bristol Street Motors)......
Wow I used to work at Taylors of Gloucester back in 1989.
My dad would love this! Where abouts do you go exploring? I want to take my dad out! Thanks Jerry
Around Wales is the best place to go.
What is the story with this place? I have seen it get explored by many youtube channels.. Is the owner deceased? not willing to sell? Whats going on?
