My kind of place! You'd be surprised what old vehicles are just left to rot away! I love the junkyards!

[@joethanks3745]

Thanks Jason for helping save all you could from the crusher

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks Joe!

I miss the reason way it's all going , why is it all going!!??

Love it, Absolutely love watching it all get crushed. Need more video's like this.

[@lucyxchan6808]

I am not very sure, but from the position of the lock it could be the backhatch of an Datsun 240Z...

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Oh yeah!

[@marshmower]

That would supply Cuba another 100 years...

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

True...lol

[@letsgobrandon1300]

Think of all the rafts they could build and float here to the U.S.A.

[@alittlebitofanything6345]

Oh also at 13:16 those are 4 door doors they are stubby in length seen enough to recognize that....the door at 11:50 that says 50s free on the right side of the screen it looks like a two door 55-56 postdoor as its 6-7 inches longer

[@johnelliott7375]

Should have started a year before the man planned on closing but everything is not able to be planned but it is what it is.

[@tims72demon]

Good job grabbing those parts. Sad about the rest of them. Waiting for the next video !!

[@johnelliott7375]

Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@PaganWizard]

4:57 I love that old 2 door station wagon. I sure do wish I wasn't 1500 miles away. ☹ 11:37 That Edsel hood would also be coming home with me. Loving old American Iron as much as I do, I don't think I'm going to be able to watch your video of all those cars and parts getting crushed and turned into soup cans. The heavy hands of the politicians who forced this long time family business, to go out of business, should be in handcuffs.

[@Glenn_123]

Thank you so much for sharing this Jason.... It is a SAD time but appreciate you taking the time to walk through it!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thank You!

[@brianhayes7618]

Should make for a nice retirement nest egg for the current owner. Plus he still owns the land which he can sell it is a sad ending but be happy for the owner as he can retire and enjoy the fruits of his labor over a long career

[@greenmirror5555]

even picking for fasteners and bracket bolts is a good move. Thanks for all the vids!

[@Kevscancave]

Man ya gotta love a great junkyard… hate to see it go!

[@Classic-Shack]

Great video, such a shame about the amount of parts going to be getting crushed.

[@bryancooper2699]

Where are all the car collectors with projects in their garage?? Guys step up before it’s all gone.

[@FedUpCanuck]

Another great scrap yard meets the crusher in the sky. It's had a good run and you just can't save every piece. The shells left have been well picked over. Scrap prices are high time to let go

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Trrue...

[@lonniekiser3612]

Geeee Man a lot of good parts still there , it's really a sad thing to see them getting crushed and it's happening all over, my uncle crushed about 800 this spring crazy stuff.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

[@hamonrye7415]

Theres another yard just like this somewhere in Colorado that was has also shut down (Due to a huge re-development and building of homes/apartments in the area) Place had old 40's school buses, trucks, anything old. No word if theyll be trying to sell off the inventory or if the land developers but everything outright....

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

[@alexeatonexploresamerica5511]

Gosh this makes me so sad I'm in tears over this I really wish I could have gone over there to buy some of that stuff

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

😞

[@66skate]

Someone should grab all of the loose doors, fenders, hoods and decklids etc. There's a gold mine there.

[@alittlebitofanything6345]

The reality is the generations of people or at least the majority are dying off who lived and had these cars and experienced the years they were popular and appreciated to restore them.The demand for these parts isnt there anymore to be profitable and just plain not desirable in most cases. Many of these parts and cars in that yard werent ever in too much demand even in their heyday but were still saved at the time for possible resale for wrecks of that day and they were dirt cheap to get.This scenario with old junkyards is acting out all over as time flies buy and waves its sad reality hand & not too mention the rust factor making some parts there destined for the crusher. I personally scrapped two cars a few years back when steel was high I think at 16 cents a pound here in the North East. So I got $1100 for two junk cars which isnt bad. Cars were worth more in scrap then its resale value or parts.This yard will do good in scrap metal for sure when they are crushed what ever the steel price is currently I would imagine. Dont know what steel is now maybe 8-9cents/lb as it fluctuates.This trend is happening all over the country. Im glad to see some of it is being saved .....Good video enjoyed it thanks for posting ! Sorry for the long over explained comment ,HA!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks! I appreciate the information. It's an end of a era...

Man I sure would have liked to have been there I would have looked for more muscle cars but I think there's money to be made and all those old parts

[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

Cut some fronts hang them on the wall they look super sweet

[@stevensilver1014]

wow so sad to see them go

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

😞

[@marshmower]

I bet that hatch went to a rotsun. But a lack of rust makes me wonder. Glad to hear that some was used. Wish it was in a less restrictive area. The area could be by order only and not open to foot traffic. But that would require more hired hands so that's the thing. Wish it was in Alabama or distributed among newer rural junkyards. Junk is treasure.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Your right about that hatch!

[@curtg7396]

Yeah looks like a 70’s 240 or 280z hatch,I’d definitely grab it if I were there.

[@howardkoster4026]

21:05 Grills, Left= Studebaker, right= 1960 Ford Galaxy..... 30:33 Blue trunk lid = '55 Plymouth? The two rear windows with part of body attached, blue = '53/'54 Chevy? The other = 50's Caddy???

Awesome! Thanks!

Is there any parts left on that 82-92 Firebird? if so you should get em,They getting hard to find parts for..

You can't get that Lincoln stuff especially that year. Also what looked like a 79 Monte that's 1 year only stuff. The tail lights are crazy expensive.

[@morgansword]

If this country needed metal and glass to keep our country safe, that would be one thing. Every scrap metal yard has scrap melting into the soil and not doing anyone any good. We don't even make anything anymore so why sell it to someone who will kill us? Our people are fat and lazy. Frost on a seat cover.... its a sick day for sure

[@ABANDONEDCARREVIVALS]

21:40, 65 cadillac yes, i have the same one in my shed:P

[@novaracer2000]

Those belair doors look like 4 dr fronts to me. The blue fender by the chevelle fender and hood looked like a 68-69 gto or lemans fender.

[@matthrivnak6572]

Saw a 53 Ford in there

[@libertysgarage8411]

My poor stomach is in knots knowing so much old iron is getting crushed. If only I were closer, I would have definitely saved some parts from there.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

😞

[@FedUpCanuck]

Look at what's left just well picked over shells many many parts have been saved and put back on the road. Look at the bright side scrap prices are very high his business will go out with alot of cash instead of rusted inventory

[@russelleckert8940]

Million dollars of glass , pull all unbroken restoration gold

[@tresfingeros]

So sad, rusted or not. when you need that part and it's not repoped it won't be available 😪 The Aries was made by Dodge from 1981 to 89, came in 2 dr,4dr and wagon Equipped with 4 cyl.

[@52BuickBoi]

Alot of this valuable stuff shouldn't have been crushed that's too bad they should sell this stuff to like antique collectors or restoration shops for parts and restoration projects

[@brianhayes7618]

Ever watch Adventures made from scratch? Silas is the guys name and he and his dad have a salvage business in Kansas and he does a lot of crusher videos pretty cool to watch check him out. Try and get there next week and video some of the crushing your subscribers will enjoy it.

[@howardkoster4026]

11:31= Opel GT, for some reason I remember it was part of Buick, but I don't remember why.. 14:13= '60ish Imperial??? You're really testing my old brain box now. The '56 Chevy doors, I THINK are 4dr ones. Studebaker- Lark...

Limited new parts for older vehicles in the United States. Now everybody is into destroying used parts that could be salvaged and reused. Just what we need, or don't need. I'm just saying in a few years we're not going to be able to keep even the older vehicles that are worth it running.
