Like most people that have a Junkyard as a hobby, They waited 30 or 40 years to long to decide to sell. Now most way to far gone, lucky to get a few parts off each. I Bet there are 6 - 8 cars as whole that could be Restored, and if Done Right...Thats more money than the Car is worth. He needs to Re-think the Value of rough Parts Cars. Good luck!

Unfortunately, there is nothing but scrap there now. I would drive by places like this 40 years ago looking for parts, but the answer I usually got was "I'm going to do something with them one day". Sad part is, most of those cars are still sitting there completely rusted away. Good intentions, but no real plan to do anything with them. Thanks for the video

Yep, back before the internet, this is just how you fixed older cars. But now ... if I need an axle housing or a door, I check online. No snakes, no ticks, no tetanus, no dodgy propping up of rusty hulks ... and the detail parts like gauges and bezels are either reproduced or can be delivered to your doorstep from parts cars that haven't been rained into for 40 years. A beautiful place but not much left for those of us who do this kind of thing.

Unbelievable. His Dad in not selling anything for 40 years, and then him thinking the cars his father ruined are worth Hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sometimes I believe people holding onto cars are what kept them from being crushed long ago, but most of these cars are almost just as bad off now than if they had been crushed 40 years ago. It's truly sad to see this. He said he would give 6 months to get them all gone, well, think about the time and money it will take just to remove them from the property. It would take multiple months, working 40 hours a week, just to get them all gone. Have to cut down trees, have a rollback, oh, and the new owner would have to have their own place to put them all. Its just not going to happen. What I see happening, is if they truly want them all gone, he will have to give the cars away to a scrap yard if they can justify that the scrap value is higher than the amount of time and effort it will take to clear the property. What a sad headache and nightmare this man's father left his family to have to deal with. I knew a gentleman who had a huge outdoor collection of vehicles in PA, 300-400 cars, but he at least had a huge public auction and sold off everything that his family didnt want to keep before he passed away.

Back in the 70's junk yards were where you always went for parts when the parts stores said they could get the part in a week or so, because you needed the car for your job. The junk yard always had the part. There was always a car like yours there and most of them still had parts on them. They were a life saver.

Just the time posting stuff, I lived 500 miles from this place, time to get there go through stuff throw out junk etc. It was a monumental task for 1 guy. I could'nt get anyone to help me. Anyways i had plenty of prospects contact me. The house is in the most northern part of Michigan's upper peninsula. People would whine about how far it was from them blah blah. Anyways my dads dying wish to me was to clear out as much as I can for me. My sisters could care less how much I got. I have a '24 enclosed car trailer. I made 2 trips getting the things I wanted filling that trailer front to back floor to ceiling and it still looked like I didn't make a dent. Anyways I lost my ass selling things a few cars my dad had he spent many thousands of dollars went for just a few thousand a piece. The money we used for expenses we were trying to get things buttoned up because taxes are extremely expensive there. Covid was eveyones excuse for people to rip me off.

After 15 years past I got a call from the 69 and I ran to it. It was totally rotted out. The old gentleman said I can see the pain in your eyes son. What’s ya thinking. I just said it like it was , sir you waited so long that it’s gone and I seen it when it was still running. I could have done something with it. He agreed and gave it to me.

You would spend more money on those rust buckets than what they are worth. A million dollars? I was wondering how much he'd pay me to haul them off. Thanks fur the video.

The sad music made watching these old cars even harder. All or nothing means that they will probably keep them. That’s a tall task.

Those cars are junk. Nothing left on them. So sad all these old people hoarded all these old cars to rot.

True what was the sense in hoarding them just to sit and rust/rot away like that? All they are now are heaps of junk with a capital J

The other thing people are mentioning, in addition to it all being rusted and too far gone...it's been picked over for decades as a junkyard. So almost every car is missing 25% of it. Makes what little value might be there be almost zero. Sad. Agree that it would have been cool to see it in the 70's.

Hate to say it but its a mobile crusher job. By the time you've paid the crew to sort it all out you may come away $ 300 a car on average and only because them dinosaurs are so heavy .

I want to know how he came up with that price tag? I dont think all these cars plus the property would be anywhere near $1,000,000.
