Exploring A Classic Car Junk Yard - 1000 Classics

Where do you find all your cars?

I get asked that question all the time. The truth is, you have to search high and low. Not every tip is going to pay off, infact most won't. I'll go anywhere, any time to check out old cars.

This was a special trip south with my buddy David Newbern and our friend Brandon. I spent a day flying south, slept over then we drove 7 hours though 3 states to check out an old junk yard.

Classics from the 30's up till the 70's where packed in a 30 acre property.

Most of the cars where to far gone to be builders but lots of great parts to keep other cars on the road.

If you're interested in anything you saw on the video. contact Ed on Instagram @rustfinder for more information.

I grew up in the 80's and 90's. and i remember walking around junkyards with my grandfather foaming at the mouth at all the cars out there. Now here i am 30 years later foaming at the mouth over these scraps.. Time has certainly changed things. Thanks for the tour DD!

So awesome and sad at the same time. Hard to believe all the cars. That's a walk down memory lane!! Cheers!!

The first yard is all pine trees, pine needles are acidic, hence rotten car bodies, second yard is deciduous trees, leaves are less acidic, equals less rusty cars. Nice walk around!

Nothing better than a classic junkyard so calming for the nerves and see how time has passed ☺️

Walking old yards is better than Disneyland.

Went to visit my Auntie in Ohio from the UK in I think 1990, and while there got my Dad to take me to a yard that was similar in size, they had been collecting since the 20's...and just kept moving the front desk forward. I'm not kidding you It was almost a mile deep, I ran around that yard for nearly 3 hours ( I was 17 and frenetic!). It had everything from everywhere, Just row upon row, through the decades, seeing the imports start to arrive in the 60's rows, just mindboggling.
It was one of the best memories of my youth. Incredible. A great book to get by Pat and Larry Kytola, helped spark my passion.
Thanks for this Dan!

I love struttin around old scrap yards they send you back in time with all the memories and the thoughts of what could you do with all this stuff if you only had more time

My uncle Clary had a yard full of car's and Boat's, and is dreading me turning our yard into a junk yard, I only have 3 in the shed next door, and only 3 in the yard, then the couple out the front, speaking of that I gotta go do some lawns, as we just had two King Brown Snakes in the shed toilet only 6 ft so I better mow the grass so we might be able to see them sooner, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones 😊

"😮" My grandpappy always said there'd come a day when people will come flying in from afar just to see his Garden 😅

So very cool! I’m glad you got to see it even if you didn’t take all the gems you would like to have taken seeing the collections is really cool
