Largest Junkyard left in the United States
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This is the craziest old car junkyard I have ever seen! There is so many desirable cars that have been abandoned that it is overwhelming. It makes you wonder how one person can collect so many vehicles. Let us know which ride is your favorite!

This is the best junk yard I ever did see, the owner must of been a 'Tuna' packer in his other life!
It's crazy how someone can have so much and not willing to share with anyone else. They'll prefer for everything to turn to rust instead. of bringing someone's dream to life. With a car that they've been looking for for years. 😢😢 so sad

I was picking my favorites as the video went. The GTX, the Coronet 440, the T/A. Then you showed the Apache wrecker, and I had to rethink everything.
These junkyards have been sitting idle for many years it’s crazy that they are all closing up crushing all these cars especially when the younger generation today has a passion for these classic cars and bringing them all back to life again

With all these different tags on these cars and trucks this was a wrecker service storage yard that accumulated what the owners didn't claim or pick up. Or gave the vehicle up for the tow bill.

It's very peculiar, I have never seen a junkyard like that in person. I'm from California and all the junk yards with classic cars all the cars are in just fantastic shape no corrosion no pitting no rust. It's too bad a lot of those cars are there because they're getting destroyed from rust and corrosion you can't restore that. I don't think the cars are even worth anything in that condition. Not far outside of Palm Springs I know somebody that had three Dodge Chargers ine 69 and two 68s , only one had an engine and transmission.. but he sold all three of them for $50,000. Had just a fraction of that junkyard been here in California or Arizona, he's literally looking at millions of dollars. Instead they're rotting into the Earth. Shows you what life was like in America not so long ago cars were easily disposable after only 10 years, when I was young I picked up Dodge Chargers Camaros mustangs all in good shape all in good running condition for $3,000 or less. You can't do that now... That $3,000 is a monthly car payment with insurance
My favorite was the 64 Cadillac and the 73 Torino. Could use some small parts on the 73 Torino !

Start from any of the outer edges of this car enthusiast playground by scrapping any late model cars and move the classics one at a time to another cleared location . Even without being there to actually see for myself , I have to believe they could be rescued ??
Picker's paradise.😳🐺
Seems like a private collection more than a junkyard, so many of those cars were completely intact with very valuable parts; which would have been stripped long ago if they were available. Favorite car? The '70 Charger has universal appeal, as do the other Mopar muscle cars. But I like anything old and cool, so it's an impossible choice.
Omni and a colt are different cars. Yellow car was a colt, red one next to the Mazda was a omni

There used to be a place like that not too far from me. Nowhere near that big, but it was a treasure trove of older cars, and I found a fair bit of parts there over the years. Even bought a radiator hose once off a junk car to replace the one I'd blown on the way there! Unfortunately, the last time I went it'd been mostly cleaned out. Someone had bought it, discovered the yard owed money to all kinds of places, and had to crush everything to get enough pay the debts. (Or so the counterman said.)
