Finding Rare Muscle Cars in the Junkyard!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 мар 2023
- There are many Abandoned classic American muscle cars in this junkyard that I have never seen before. Classic Mustangs and Cameros were more scarce than I was anticipating. But there were plenty of Chevy Vegas and Classis Pick up trucks. The Subaru Brat and Datson 280z were pretty neat finds! Many Nissan 300zx Z31 were scattered across the yard. Also the Porsche 944 hidden in the back was pretty rad!

See ya next time! 🔥
Yo I love your videos, still crazy how u resurrected the 240, right at 15:21 you miss the best thing about that orange truck it had a Big turbo peeking out
Did you know about the history of the Ford Falcon in Argentina?
No way you have your own emoji! That's awsome
Hey Mike where is this yard located at?
59 Ford ranch wagon. I prefer the 59 Edsel wagon. The same but different
The rusty 2 door is an AMC Marlin from 1966 It is actually a fairly rare car. That yard could get more for the car by selling it on an AMC collectors page than scrapping it.
There are alot of rusty two doors
The one without a B pillar ? Back windows rolled down too, small trunk ..! Yes that car is sick and definitely a find! So rare..that side view almost looks like it’s copied by Bugatti
@@Impekible1 two door no post is called a "hardtop"
I thought it was an old charger?
Nvm lol
I get this weird feeling seeing all these old cars at wrecking yards. So many people living their lives, many of the cars once something someone proudly owned. School buses that carried thousands of children over the years. The stories they could tell...
The car at 11:01 is a VW Jetta they were very common here in germany. We call them "Golf/Rabbit with a Backpack". Since the Golf model was also renamed to Rabbit in the USA I dont know if the same happened to this one. I love your Videos and especially the Junkyard Adventures fascinate me to see all of these old foreign Cars.
That's fascinating
Wolf represents Wolfsburg, home of VW
First Generation, Mk I, Jetta. Sold 1980-84
This was a Volkswagen Fox, built between 87-93 and sold in the US. Stopped production due to higher sales of the Passat, Jetta and Golf.
15:19, cant be the only one that noticed mike walk right by that without seeing the turbo under the hood
Lmao nah your not the only one
Yeah I saw it in the little truck
This is heart wrenching to watch. Because when i was young...these cars were still around. :(
Yes Mike the mustang was a 67 👍 there are alot of savable projects out in that yard .
16:58 my older brother has a datsun z truck and they are really nifty, they came with the I4 nissan z engine from the 240z and the nissan s30's. really unique how they put those engines in a pickup but hey man its pretty cool to see.
Woah that awesome! I had no idea!
Sorry man nur rhe 240z never Had an I4 they Always Had an Inline 6!
@@PrizzaMike that in the Video is a 280zx very different from the 240 or even 280z in terms of Suspension Body Chassis and interior it is a completly different Car
Those bucket seats ur talking ab in the brat where actually a factory feature so it could be considered a family car😂
No wayyyy! That's crazy haha
I wish I lived in IL. I need the the tail lights for my 85 brat.
The blue two door 9:03 is a Datsun 210 fastback(Nissan Sunny, B310 chassis) 1979 - 1982. That was the predecessor to the FWD Nissan Sentra/Sunny, B11 chassis. I remember seeing lots of Datsun 210/B210 quite a few in the 80s and 90s. I think most of them got scrapped in the mid 90s, because I stopped seeing them on the roads in the late 90s. The Datsun 210/Nissan Sunny was roughly equivalent to the Toyota Corolla(KE70 & TE70)
I had a feeling it was a Datsun! Thanks for proving me correct!
5:32 that’s a 4 door plymouth valiant
4:05 that 2 door is a 66 or 67 Dodge Monaco
7:20 that’s Chevy bel air wagon I think
14:30 your right on that one it’s a camero
15:20 that’s a Plymouth arrow or better known as a dodge rampage
17:30 that’s a mid to late 70s dodge dart or demon
17:32 that truck is a Chevy luv
Amazing! Thank you for the clarification 🙏
18:33 is an American Motors Hornet.
The truck was not a Plymouth scamp
awesome man! learnt something new about old american iron today
Thats not a scamp, that was a Plymouth Arrow made by Mitsubishi Motors and sold by the Chrysler Corporation under under the Plymouth marque: The Mitsubishi Forte, a compact pickup truck also sold as the Plymouth Arrow from 1979 to 1982
Mike you always find the best treasures in a salvage yard keep up the good work making awesome RUclips videos
man those porsche 944s are just beautiful, it hurts like hell to see one like that
Where is This I need parts
I agree
17:00 Is Datsun 720 4x4 pickup the they were powered by the Z20, Z22, Z24 engine. The Z-series engine is essentially an L-series 4 cylinder engine with a crossflow cylinder head. The Z24 was replaced by the KA24E in Nissan trucks.
man i used to love going to the junkyard back in my teens and ealry 20's looking for parts for all my cars. I miss going but love watching these videos
How that roadmaster ended in a junkyard is beyond me they're collectible cars now
They aren't valuable though. Not everyone can fix their own cars and once the repairs start to stack up only one option 😢
@@dan44zzt231 Nah dude they're definitely valuable. Just look up the prices
@@ae86hachi damn your right. Prices have shot up the last few years. Was thinking you could still get a driver quality one for 2-3k but more like 6-10k now 😳 when my buddy worked in car sales a few years ago the older folks would trade these in for economical compacts and he'd tell me he'd feel bad but could only give them maybe 500 bucks for them as nobody wanted them on resale.
@@dan44zzt231 I understand I was about to go buy a new car instead of fixing my 97 Honda or my old Ford pickup even with rebuilding the transmission suspension tires interior headwork new rings it's still going to be cheaper to fix my 97 Honda with 320,000 mi then to go buy a new car or even another 97 Honda that runs I just looked and they're running 4,000 to $5,000 I got an old square body Chevy that when I knocked it ten years ago it wasn't worth more than five hundred bucks and now online it says that you could part them out and make 10 times that I don't see how they're so expensive when there's almost no one who works on cars anymore I'm the only person I know that works on cars I'm not the only car guy I know I'm just the only one that actually does work to my friends cars or my cars I just rebuilt my buddies alh Jetta and I had grown men surprised that somebody was able to pull out an engine and transmission rebuild it and throw it back in the car his neighbors his family members my buddy himself like it's not that hard I'm only thirty-two and I taught myself this s*** from books my daddy wasn't a car guy and my granddaddy knew how to do some maintenance but he was not a car builder I thought the internet was awesome cuz I was the first generation that was able to go online and order parts for my car through classic industry or parts for my square body from LMC truck or classic industries and now I'd rather have it go back two catalogs and phone calls and get rid of the f****** internet and bring back Craigslist personals it's nice when you can find a local lady to suck your dick for 40 bucks cuz all any guy really wants is some p**** in his dick suck they don't want to go spend hundreds of dollars on a f****** date to get to know sumbitch they don't like
I never liked them until I seen Dax Shepard's Supercharged LSA swapped Roadmaster.. And then I understood the appeal of them. Super spacious and comfortable, with a very unique design that makes them stand out. They're just retro cool now.
Two Marlins in one yard, how rare must that be.👍🇨🇦
The 280ZX was a turbo version. You can tell by the funnel intake on the drivers side of the hood. I had one. That one was a 2+2 model, it had a backseat.
The car with the wolf on the steering wheel was a jetta mk1 I think. The wolf refers to Wolfsburg the town in Germany which vw originated from
Can’t believe all the glass in that Marlin is still good. That’s a keeper!
Silver Mk1 VW Jetta. Looks pretty solid!
I appreciate your enthusiasm for a younger guy! You're a gear head and that's cool!
Thank you! Means alot 🔥
Junkyards are cool and sad to see at the same time.
whats wild to me about any junkyard is most of these cars were daily drivers and someone just lived their life with them. like these cars were a key part of someones life at some point. and now theyre just left to sit bascally abandoned
I was born in the 50s and was lucky enough to be driven around in these vehicles. I currently own 5 1960s cars. So many great stories.
your junkyard vids are an algorithm hit
Dude, where are you? That place is a gold mine! Can't believe there is not just one but two AMC Marlins! There are rare cars up in there. I kept yelling out the guesses. I laughed when you said "wow, not plastic." What's my favorite car you found? ALL of Them! 😍👍
Someone really needs to save that AMC Marlin lol
When the 240 is finished you really need to do a classic car build whether it's an old muscle car or just an old car from the 40s or 50s just do an old car so that way you have a jdm Legend and an American classic
That's a great idea! I really want one of those massive wagons I found in the video!
@@PrizzaMike I'm with you on that one I love station wagons that's why my favourite R chassis is the stagea but I've always had a weird Kink where I'd love to take an old station wagon and make it a street / strip car and by the way I could be wrong but that old station wagon you were looking at like the one that's in your thumbnail I believe is an old Mopar could be a Chevy but I think it's a dodge/ Chrysler product
@02:55 3rd gen Chevy C/K
@04:03 1969 Ford LTD 4d
@06:05 1965-67 AMC Marlin
@09:01 Datsun SL210 ~1979
@11:01 VW Jetta MK1
@20:18 Mustang II ~1977
@20:22 Willys Jeep Panel Wagon probably early 1960's
Dude I'd love to pull that L28 and the 5 speed from the 280, they're so expensive over here :((
Wheather been doing better here in Canada, I'm starting back to go hunt parts in our junkyard called "Kenny u-pull" it is so damn fun to walk and look out random cars, junkyards keep so much stories from these cars.
Some good finds it's always sad to see a z31 in the breakers
At 11:02 that was a MK1 VW Jetta, the stamp on the steering wheel is actually a castle for the Wolfsburg logo
It's actually a VW Fox, sold in the US between 87-93. It stopped production due to the Jetta having higher sales.
é um Jetta alemão,o Fox que você se refere era produzido aqui no Brasil nas versões 2 e 4 portas,aqui era chamado de VW Voyage,foi projetado inspirado nas linhas do Jetta,na versão SW era VW Parati,inclusive eu tenho um Voyage 1985 bem conservado,eram 4 modelos:
VW Gol,carroceria Hatch,
VW Voyage,carroceria sedã,
VW Parati,carroceria perua ou SW,
VW Saveiro,carroceria pick-up.
Aqui no Brasil eram equipados com motor Audi combustão a gasolina ou álcool nas versões 1.6 e 1.8,um abraço ✌🏻🇧🇷
The sad thing is cars were treated the same then as they are now. Most cars that are built currently are just considered throw-away cars. I remember being in a family owned junkyard as a kid seeing 60’s Mopars stacked to the sky. Some sell today for six figures. These amazing old cars we see were used and disposed of just like they are now. It’s awesome to even see cars like that even in junkyards. Great video.
I don't think currently cars are "throw-away" like thoose cars were, cars were far cheaper to produce and buy and lasted way less than modern cars
@@braziliansheetbox2497 Your right your right, there are definitely current cars that have great collectability. Most common commuter vehicles you see today is probably what I should of said.
@@cmarsili4724 even modern commuter cars. Back in the day no computers, little wiring, no thought for crash protection, same old simplistic frame and suspension for multiple years with body style updates. Someone on a decent salary could buy a new car every few years, not like now where a brand new car is expensive and financed over multiple years.
@@dan44zzt231 100% agree. I grew up in the late 80s/early 90s and a base model chevy beretta was a little north of 8,000 brand new.
I'm 64 years old, but we could hang out for days. Walking junk yards. I'm sure we could learn a lot from each other.
That 280Z the engine and trans would definitely be a good thing to pick up
The L-Types are fun engines to work with if you like em
That red car with the small trunk and sweeping chrome is a 66' AMC marlin in decent shape. Those are rare and that one is worth a restoration! The white one too, it has more sheet metal on the bottom.
I love old junk cars since a kid... Awesome video..alota nice stuff there
the beauty of the buick roadmaster wagon is not the wood panelling, its whats under the hood. For a few years 1994ish they came with the lt-1 v8. The same motor found in the cadillac fleetwood, impala ss, and corvette. Slightly detuned for the buicks and caddys but it could be tuned back to corvette specs with a few parts. So a corvette motor in a woodpanelled station wagon made a hell of a sleeper.
Love these surprise uploads
Old cars with panoramic floor, amazing!😍
Thanks for the walk down memory lane
This is why I'm kinda agree with people saying 50's and 60's are more futuristic styling than what we have now.
A lot of 2 door rear windows roll down in those years, my 1969 Oldsmobile 442 coupe has windows that roll down for the back passenger space. Chevelle's, GTO, skylark, as well as Camaro's 1967-69 all have that as well.
I would love to go to a junkyard like this one with you and just teach you about the old classics
Seeing the Firebird like that hurt me deep down.
@ 17:07 those nissan z motors are epic. You should grab it and swap it into a early 90's nissan hardbody. Nissan took those engines racing in the truck series back in the day and kicked ass. Supposed to be a great motor and part of history. I wanted to z swap my 94 nissan hardbody with the single cam ka, never found a motor and no longer have the truck
The orange marlin was definitely cool and rare to find 2 in a yard .
Dude you walked right by the white dropped chevy luv. That is mini truck gold. Already had some work done. She's nice and straight
I only know about the Brat because of My Name is Earl lmaooo
I fucking love that show
Best show. Such a shame it stopped
These rims on the smashed porshe are quite valueable.. they are called "Hackmesser" and had been sold with the car as an option. Looks like a 244 turbo. Nice car!
Pretty cool to see multiple Chevy Vegas. I need a set of quarters for mine
I love the AMC MERLIN!! To me personally as one of the best designs of all time..on the same level as a buick riviera boattail, Ferrari testarossa on many other.just really a killer killer design from the rear to the front
In 7:09 in the video,that’s a 1957 Chevy nomad and it’s honestly arguably the best looking wagon in history to be made. They also made a nomad with no windows in the rear and that was called the Chevy delivery which was basically a wagon van. The nomad is basically just a Chevy bel air that’s just a wagon lmao
man i'd kill for a junkyard like that here in germany.
junkyards here are exceptionally rare as-is, and if you find one all there'll be in it is 90s and 2000s econoboxes
I knew every car and truck you showed us. my favorite was definitely the red amc. I have 2 different engines for it sitting in my shop. One of the most reliable engines ever made and loved by jeep 4 wheelers everywhere.
The blue hatchback at 9:26 is actually a Japanese car! A Datsun B310, a solid economy car with an FR layout from the late 70s / early 80s.
Man I wish we still had yards like this in the UK. A few left but mostly now you can't walk around and pull your own parts anymore 😢 you got to go the counter and collect
it would be so cool to see an arial view of a yard this big with a drone check it out
If you did a tour of junkyards state series I would watch every episode
8:30 I've actually seen one of these clean and well maintained and it's genuinely badass
i love your junkyard vids man, keep up the content!!!
Thanks a bunch!
It's so fun exploring a new junkyard! But also sad to see all these project cars rotting away 😭
Came to see the roadmaster that I saw on your Instagram and wow it was the first car I love it! So sad to see in a junk yard😔 awesome video keep it up!
15:35 Toyota Fj55 Land cruiser
15:45 International Harvester Scout
20:22 Willys Jeep Wagon (between 1946-64)
Such a cool junkyard, thanks for sharing it with us! I wish we had a yard like that in Utah, i could use a ton of those 73-79 ford truck parts.
The Two Cars seen on this video with the long fastback and a small trunk door with back corners elbo to fingers of width are a RAMBLER MARLIN better known as the AMC MARLIN from AMERICAN MOTORS COMPANI (very reliable and strong cars by the way) that was made from 1965 to 1967 a personal luxury car and very rear as well.
fun fact on the purple in that tunderbird: the purple carpet in the back window was black! the fabrics would fade to purple from sitting in the sun. my old 81 celica had seats that were purple on the sides, and i learned recently that its from sun fade:)
Interesting!
9:02 is Datsun 210 coupe also known as Datsun Sunny in Europe or Nissan Sunny in Japan. Available with A12, A14 and A15 engines, 4 or 5 speed with both 5 speed with 1:1 5th gear or one with overdrive 5th. Chassis code is B310. One you found is earlier pre-facelift from 1978 to 1980 with round headlights and slightly different interior.
FYI: On most older cars, the date of the vehicle is stamped into the tail lights.
Hey. I know of a Wrecking~Yard, that's closed to the public in Sonoma County! They still let old timers like me in, since it's really hidden and they know that I'll keep it quiet.
I telling ya, but I won't tell ya where!! Hahaha 😆
Great content as always Mike. Love your yard crawls.
Quite alot of gems there, Ford, chevy, Plymouth's, Amc, Pontiacs etc
Buicks n gmc's
Cheers to your choice in content bro .
This is stuff I like to do here in New Zealand, but I would never get to see any of these old USA cars without your uploads
At 18:34, that car is an early 70s, probably 1971 AMC Hornet, the same manufacturer that made those red and white Marlins you also came across.
Please. Do more these. Love em ❤
Wow! That's a lot of awesome cars! So cool and so sad same time!
always the highlight of my day when Mike posts a video
It would sick af to get drone shots of a place like that
The favorite cars that I like that you found so far or the Ford broncos in the Subaru brat
Sick junkyard!!! love these video's man!
19:34, i love all those cars in the frame. those ford vans are super cool to me and the caprice aswell
I don't think the Brat was available in Japan, I hear they fetch a pretty good price to import them over.
So many cars I would want to drag home. I have had 3 Vegas in my life, too.
That yard has nothing but money sitting around all over!!
Puddin's Fab Shop vibes all over this video! Nice!
i see all videos, and i love your junkyard adventures. great job with you 240sx. props from portugal :)
The first station wagon is a 1959 Ford,don't know model name,Ford had a lot of trim levels on those,including a Ranchero pickup version.2nd wagon with curved rear glass looked like a 1957 Chevy.Enjoy the junkyard tours,keep up the good work.Awesome channel.
944 definitely best one, the car that saved porche
Keep the good work up ❤
Love junkyard vids!!
Is next weeks video going to be “I bought an old American station wagon was a parts hauled!!”?
Man I wish! That'd be sweet
Oooh yes more junkyard content!!
keep making content about education mike proud of you,your content really make me wanna watch more and more
He called a 49 Plymouth a Hudson and doesn't correct and he don't know that much..
Vintage american cars are absolutely beautiful but I own one and restoring it myself in Europe has really put a dent in my sanity.
The white truck by the z at 17:35 is a chevy luv i do believe which is a truck i would love to have. They look awesome and they are small which would be a perfect first vehicle for me
Yes two-door hardtops without a post like the Marlin were very common in the day 😮
The one you paid no attention to 😭😍 the grey 4 door box Chevy next to the the orange Porsche
18:29 is an AMC Hornet. I raised with Ramblers and Studebakers. Cool cars.
20:17 is a Mustang II(1974 - 1978) considered by many to be the low point in the evolution of the Mustang although they are starting to make something of a comeback as people are becoming nostalgic for them.
My favorite was the 60’s model two door Chevrolet Impala.
