    Impressed with your knowledge on these classic cars! Junkyards are great for buying spare parts on the cheap if you know what to look for

    All the youtube rebuilders I have watched all started at the junk yards.. love to see this.

    This was pretty interesting but its sad to see so many classics in rough shape. Cars had more character back then than compared to the ones today. I miss having so many coupe options, all the new cars today for the most part are four doors. Nice break from the weekly update videos, thanks for doing this!

    Keep doing the junk yard videos. I was trolling junkyards for parts and kicks in NoDak and West Germany before you were born, so a '72 T-bird, AMC Eagle, Audi 5000, and a 1974 Mercury CAPRI are just old friends to me.

  • @AndreasFjord

    Although sad to see some of them being at a junkyard, it was still a quite interesting video 😊

  • @francofata181
    @francofata181 Před rokem +6

    Very cool, junk yard exploration is very interesting. By the way, the car you thought was a Mercury Comet is actually a Mercury Capri. In the late 70s early eighties, the Capri would become a rebadged fox body Mustang.

  • @SailorVenus90
    @SailorVenus90 Před rokem +3

    Good walk down memory lane with some of these vehicles. Crazy to think vehicles I used to see on the road as a child are here in the junk yard but then again, 25 years will do that to a car. Please do another video similar to this.

    It's hard to understate how futuristic and different the Oldsmobile Aurora was compared to its peers. It looked nothing like it's siblings and it had the Aurora 4.0 engine that GM was using in racing at the time.

    You should do marsh auto salvage in dawson, pa next. It’s such a big yard that they have specific import car sections (vw, honda, lexus, etc just to name a few). They even have a lawn mower pick and pull as well lol
    Best foreign auto salvage in aliquippa, pa is also another good one

  • @im_an_alvani
    @im_an_alvani Před rokem +1

    Xterra coming back would be a hit, but knowing Nissan they'd probably make it a unibody CUV. I always really enjoy these non-review videos!

    • @sebastianbarajas754
      @sebastianbarajas754 Před rokem

      If it comes back, I hope it’s not unibody, it needs to compete with the 4Runner and should share the same platform with the Frontier

    Nice video Matt keep these coming, I think that Cavalier owner was inspired by Porsche to paint his bumpers that color lol that Impala SS actually had a 5.3 Vortec V8 but was unfortunately still FWD 😢

  • @twotrackjack2260
    @twotrackjack2260 Před rokem

    So many car models you showed that I've interacted with over the years.. reminds me how old I am 😅. I've always been a sucker for the later Thunderbirds (95-97) and their upscale twin the Lincoln Continental mk8. Was like a bigger Mustang with a 'more functional' backseat 😏

    • @MattMaranMotoring
      @MattMaranMotoring  Před rokem

      Yeah, shame they didn't bring them back, I think a bigger Mustang still would have a chance at decent sales success.

  • @simpleyummy797
    @simpleyummy797 Před rokem

    Great video! I also suggest filming Copart walkarounds you get a large variety of cars to look at and it’s never ending content because cars come and go all the time. Also the cars at copart are in much better condition(not pristine however). I suggest watching a few minutes of autoauctionrebuild on CZcams to give you inspiration

    • @MattMaranMotoring
      @MattMaranMotoring  Před rokem +1

      I'll check it out, thanks! This U-Pull & Pay says they turn over cars every few weeks to keep it fresh too, so I could probably make this a monthly thing and still see totally new stuff each time.

    The original Honda Passport is actually not a Honda at all but rather a Mitsubishi. Interestingly, it was only available in the U.S. market. Junk yard crawls are very educational, hope you enjoyed it, Great video!

    • @MattMaranMotoring
      @MattMaranMotoring  Před rokem +3

      Yeah, the good old days of badge engineering. I believe it was also the Isuzu Rodeo.

    • @francofata181

      Yes, my apologies, it was the Isuzu not Mitsubishi. Great memory Matt 👍

    I hated seeing that 72 T-Bird - maybe someone will save it. I also didn't like seeing the red Cherokee in the line up for crushing. Of course, being a PA car, it may be shot underneath. Not many of the cars that you featured had that much rust on them.

    I imagine most of those good condition low millage cars are there because they were owned by an old person who passed away. Non of their family wanted their car so it ended up there. Too many people these days think anything that isn't a modern crossover is just outdated junk😒

    • @MattMaranMotoring
      @MattMaranMotoring  Před rokem +1

      Yeah it's a shame that people don't try to sell some of this stuff. Thankfully this U-Pull & Pay is gonna start selling cars soon. That way if something comes in that's too nice to be junked, it'll get a second chance at life.
