Thank you Sir!!
Thank you, buddy!
thanx t
You're welcome. Thank you, Sir!
Great yard. Love the old Mercs.
I should still get multiple videos out of that junkyard if I can get back there.
2:41 truck cab with corner windows. Driver's side is still in it.
These cabs are prized in Alaska.
I had a brother who lived up there & drove eighteen wheelers for a living. He'd come visit, buy a couple of used harleys & one sucj pickup before heading back home.
He's long since past but he once gave me a book & said, I'm looking for these cabs & I'd really appreciate you letting me know where & when you see them & if they are for sell.
The kindess words he ever spoke to me.
As my dad always said of my eldest brother, " He's a character. "
Great video Mr. Tony. Thanks so much for taking the time to make it. We watched this 2 times it was so interesting!
18: 30 1962 Chevy Impala Sport Coupe Ribbed rear roof & smaller back window to mimic a cloth convertible top.
All such models had this white stripe. The convertible had chrome trim outlining this feature, making this stripe appear slimmer.
Its cousin, the '62 Bel Air had a more powerful engine option: 409-hp V-8 with twin four barrel carburators. ( per the Ollie's books by 2023 Publications International, Ltd. )
2: 31 This maverick sedan is a nice find.
I was wanting one something awful in 2014. Never found exactly the right color combos & engine I needed.
With this, one could rebuild it completely from the ground up....perhaps.
But I've since desired a different sedan. One proving just as ellussive.
Before I forget to mention this...
Ollie's retailers is selling really nice photo gallery car book series.
Cars of the 70s,
Cars of the 60s,
Cars of the 50s.
All three in full color, 240 pages.
Very affordable.
CZcams frawns upon price listing, right?
See these beauties in showroom factory condition & marvel at the coloful details.
I sure enjoy them.
And they help me to help you identify cars.
Maybe if I stop eating sweets I can start remembering more details.
Dang Aspertame.
I'd say Daimler Conquest. 55. First car..maybe Nash looking car was Russian..lots of parts there..mustang convertible . Chargers.. you should have pulled them ten years ago. Somebody wants them. Save another..where are you located..or yard located..he good a lot of gear.. not many scrap yards now in UK. Europe..all recycling centers. Stripped and shelved. Thanks for video.. carry a little sandpaper for vins. People like to decode..classic ride society a good watch.. Have a good day..
Thank you! Those are some good tips.
What a awesome place man unbelievable😮😮😮
Thank you! I love going there myself.
While you’re there Tony, would you please rake up the leaves?
🤣😂🤣😂
Tony, I enjoyed this video - Thanks for posting. One of my favorite cars back-in-the day was my 1956 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan. Needles to say I'm always looking for '55 and '56 Fords. This is the first junk yard video I've watched that included some. Cheverolet's seem to capture all the interest In the world of Tri-Five's.
I understand. The 56 Ford is my dad's all-time favorite. He would like to have a Club Sedan. Thank you very much for watching and commenting!
Kaiser I believe before the 54 cadillac
Thank you!
I think the British car was a sunbeam talbot mid 50's. My boss had a 53 sunbeam when i was younger.
I think several agree with you on that one.
@@tonyscarcare5657 they did. I commented before I read all the comments. I wish I could find a sunbeam now. He offered it to me for $1'200 in the mid 80's. His wife sold it to a collector somewhere in Oklahoma she thought.
Some cool cars there. Thanks for the tour. Unbelievable having two 57 Mercs. Also several 67-68 Mercurys in part 1 and part 2. I never see them anywhere. So far, no Thunderbirds or Lincolns though.
You will see some Birds and Lincolns!

Oh wow! Thanks for all of that great info. I knew someone would know.
Rally nova is just a sticker package.
Oh, dang! I'm definitely not a Chevy guy, but it's still cool.
@@tonyscarcare5657 by that time SS and rally were nothing special.like the heavy Chevy.
I guess that's why it's still there.
Another great video, @tonyscarcare5657! It's almost like being there!
Yours in old FoMoCo iron,
Adrian
Thanks, buddy!
Really a great time! Nothing more fun than seeing these cars, It would be fun to see him in real life, but it’s really great watching them from the comfort of my sofa at night time when I have been working all day, very entertaining and enjoyable, I’m sure a lot of people appreciate it, I definitely do
Thanks, Dave! It seems 99.9% of the viewers are enjoying it.
I'd enjoy this video a lot more if I knew where this junkysrd was.
I could search for parts I need on my own time without waiting on 3rd party price gougers.
The whole point of a junkyard is to save money while keeping our individual cars up. Maybe even mod our ride a little. 3rd parties drive the prices up for every consumer.
So,🤔 what's the real truth behind all these videos?
All your posturing & pointing out how cars have sat here for years wasting away?
Your not helping this yard make money to survive on by withholding its location.
And I feel taken advantage of for wasting my time & data watching your video.
Don't watch, then. I will be disclosing the location very soon, but this yard doesn't ship parts, and they don't want to be bombarded with phone calls. Are you able to travel to central Illinois for a bunch of rusted out cars?
I'm able when my cash is available & I see the parts I need.
You don't have time to wait on my cash flow, so why bother & cause a fuss when I can just plot the course & arrive during daytime hours when the ysrd is open.
I have only my own personal projects.
Cars I wanna drive once each are finally road worthy. Because of my limited cash flow I can not afford a middle man. And I will never sell a single car. Selling is not of interest to me. I don't support myself with my hobby. Keeps me from getting burned out.
I'm an artist & car enthusiest as a hobby only.
There are some parts I might be willing to tip you off that I desire. But then the hunt for auch mod parts is kind of the draw of excitement for me. Maybe it just wasn't AGGRIVATINGLY meant to be. Maybe I'm just cursed in being refused.
Who knows. And I don't care to dwell.
I only know that its easiest for me to hop in my truck & drive A to B non-stop. I arrive, I locate my parts, I negociate in favor of the yard, I pay for my parts, load up & drive home.
California & Washington State are my only true challenges. Well, who wants to go to NY? Really.
I was in Boston once. Gas station attendants were all foriegm speaking only, not one station had a city map, nor could anybody understand American English & direct me to the new Boston Redsocks stadium.
Drove by Boston college 7 times.
The big Bronze bull 7 times.
And an incredible artistic gothic church with Templar crosses on it's entry doors.
But no stadium. 🙃
Plenty of dol-garn potholes!
I finally found a Boston Red Sox suvonere 30 miles outside of Boston in a gas station on my way home.
Mission accomplished though, as my friend purchased the car he wanted. 😎
I do not pick parts out of this yard for other people, so therefore, I'm not a middle man. I get a few parts for friends and favors and trade, but that's it. You will know soon where this yard is. They will not ship parts, and they do not want a bunch of phone calls.
right @17'03 in this video you almost stepped on a ford F.E engine
It must be a 360 if it's still there. It's very hard for me to see everything and make sure I don't trip over something and make sure the camera is on what I'm trying to show. I don't have a camera crew.
Did I catch a glimpe of a '56 Studebaker...right before the 63 Ford convertible?
It's very possible. I did point out a couple of Studebakers.
14: 15 Green should be a Torino
The big M is the hardest part to find , good save.
Thank you!
13:59 black four door I believe is dodge or AMC?
Its very unique.
I'm puzzled.
Update, should be a dodge Aspen, if they made a sedan. I recall earlier catching glimpse of the front fender, headlight enclosures, & grill.
Also, dodge used the bulky side markers with no chrome trìm.
Sedan vs coupe will sometimes have different taillights which is what has me lost here. Plus the rear window appears to bulge out some near tge top corners.
You're right that was an early fifties Nash. From the partial chrome badge on the trunk, it probably had a Hydramatic trans, sourced from GM. Junkyard has cars I haven't seen since childhood in the fifties and sixties.
I never realized the Nash had such a Cadillac looking ornament.
Very interesting Tony. I would like to see the interior of that Mercedes fintail and also if the 72 Fury coupe had the concealed headlight front.
I'll check the next time I get over there. Email me a screenshot of the Fury, please.
Can You keep Your eye open for a 1987 Ford Crown Victoria 4dr Rear Bumper during Your trips to places like this? I am in desperate need of one. Thanks.
Sure. I'd say I could find one of those around here.
First car is a 1949 or 50 Sunbeam Talbot, by Rootes Motors. Second one is indeed a Nash. The Mercury at 6:18 is a '61 Meteor 800, the only year a full size Meteor was sold in the US. It is not related to the Canadian Meteor. Very rare. I don't think the those Rally Novas had specific identifiers, it was just an option on a regular Nova. It was a poor man's SS. I'll bet it was a 3-on-the-floor, not 4.
That explains why the Nove is still sitting there, I reckon.
That first car is a Sunbeam Talbot from England.
Thank you! I believe there's one of those that runs around at the Old Car Festival at The Henry Ford in Dearborn, Michigan.
A Sunbeam Talbot 10, not to be confused, with a Sunbeam Talbot 90. Prince Charles could have driven a 10, but King Charles wouldn't be seen in a 10. 🤓😎
Well, it seems you have cleared that up! Thank you very much! 🤣
@@tonyscarcare5657 😃😃😁
1972 Rally Nova.
ST 72 = 1972
1 14 27 W= 1- Chevrolet Motor Division
14= Nova, V-8
27= 2 door sedan
W= Willow Run, MI. assembly plant
178450 BDY = Body by Fisher sequence # for tracking on assembly.
TR 751= Trim 751 = black vinyl bench or buckets (standard)
63 63 PNT= 63 Mohave gold, both lower and upper body color (no vinyl roof, that would be a letter)
02A = built 1st week of February
A52 = Bench seat
A 0190 (I don't have any information about)
The VIN is located on the driver's side dash, under the broken windshield. It is very important to have that to make sure the body tag on the firewall is correct. There were a lot of body tags miss stamped stating a V-8 , when in fact it had a 6 cyl. or 4 cyl. from the factory.
That Rally Nova is salvageable with a ton of work. They are coming up in value. 😎
My guess is that the A 0190 has something to do with the stripe and Rally Nova package 📦.
That's a lot of info! Thank you! I'd think someone would like to have that data and VIN tag to build another one.
@tonyscarcare5657 , truthfully this one can be restored; with a donation of the roof and support sections from another car. There's a ton of aftermarket sheetmetal available for it as well 😀
Of course there is.
Great video, Did you happen to notice if thatbwas a Plymouth Roadrunner in front of the passenger side of the javelin???😊😊😊
Well, I was pretty sure it was a Roadrunner or a Satellite. I should have taken a better look. I'll be back.
I was also curious about whether that 69 was a road chicken or satellite but he's kinda jumpy with his camera and doesn't show all the cars n stuff that are in one small or large group why not let folks know the location of these treasures so that interested buyers could go negotiate and look at them as thoroughly as they would like to other than that thanks for the stroll down memory lane keep up the work young man
Out of these 28-minute videos, people are only watching 6-9 minutes. I can't spend that much time because it just takes too much time. Plus, while I'm looking in the camera to make sure I'm on a certain thing and also making sure I don't trip over something, I miss some of the stuff. One tree or one vehicle can block my view. I promise I'm doing the best I can, and I will go back and cover some of these questions as long as people treat me nicely. It's not as easy as it looks. I will also tell everyone where this is at the end of the series of videos. And they do not want to be bombarded with phone calls. They've already said that if people are interested, they can come look themselves as they are very busy.
That blue Cadlac needs to be saved, where is this place located ?
The owners aren't ready for me to disclose the location just yet. There are some changes going on. I'll let you all know at the end of the series.
BTW it's King Charles now.
I believe that first car was a Renault from the early 60s.
Oh wow! I'd never guessed that.
its British
Looking forward to part three! If anyone was looking for Maverick / Comet parts you have found the place!
And Corvair! Oh, and 1960 Chevys!
Just wondering where your Salvage Yard is located? Website?
Thanks
They don't have a website, and they do not ship parts. I will disclose the location after all the videos are done. They do not want to be bombarded with phone calls. They'd rather people come look themselves.
Hi Tony, Do this cars have a owner or they are just sitting in this place rusting away? Is there some one at the place you can pay if you need something from this cars? It is fun to learn because you are telling me being Swedish what the cars are, I like that.
Yes, it is a business, and things are for sale. I have bought a lot of things out of this place. Thank you!
Part Deux! 😉
Yes, sir!
What state are they in? I don't wanna be specific? I'm just curious about what state
Illinois, Sir.
Thank you young man I appreciate it.
I get a kick out of knowing What state they're in
I'm disabled And I sit here on the map and figure out how far that state would be from my home.
If I was able to get out and hunt cars and again, I really appreciate it. Thank you Young man.
You're very welcome, Sir!
7: 38 U.S. VINs stay ( remsin ) with the car.
This is a very strictly enforced law.
To use this VIN legally, this car & only this car must be restored.
No if's & No but's.
