One of my hometown junkyards that I havent been back to in about 7-8 years or so. Couple of cool volkswagens but nothing I quite needed. The oem wheel selection though was pretty impressive!

[@daverobinson3816]

Sir, I applaud you. I’ve been saying since owning a golf mk5 R32, stop not having a v6 in your vee-hicles. Nothing like the sound, feel of a v6 . 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

[@Eric_B5S4]

Love the channel . Saw Miley and the Savoia in Adams video. They still are looking good . Can’t wait till there back home with u . Keep killing it . 🤍🤘🔥🥰

[@tomelus777]

Hey Christian, I like your movies a lot, I'm a VW fan too. It's a pity you don't live in Germany anymore, there was a nice junkyard there and there was always something interesting. Greetings from Poland.

[@AndreasLarsson95]

Ooh i love junkyards.

Love a good junkyard tour!

[@kevinruger8819]

@ 17:53 those oem Jeep wheels that look like a bunch of circles cut into it 🤤 and the when u pointed out the Cadillac wheels a few seconds later there was another delicious set of Jeep wheels that actually say Jeep on em 😂

[@piasprojects]

I tell you what searching through junkyards in the heat is not for the faint of heart. Florida is great but it’s still toasty in October!!

[@jaysrt21]

Those Jettas are clean

[@guslima340]

I miss FL junkyard! Great video Man. Keep them coming!

[@victoryepik1950]

All those cool cars in the video sure deserve to be restore and a new owners that will take car of those cars and the parts that u showed are very nice great video!

[@colinmurray572]

Love the video

[@ivanorozco9244]

That gray beetle you saw with the 1.8t downpipe is a turbo s, that has a 6 speed trans and that shift knob is special edition to the turbo s, you should go back and snag it

[@indycollie6424]

This should be pinned

[@ivanorozco9244]

Whoever reads this and grabs that knob and trans is lucky

[@indycollie6424]

@@ivanorozco9244 I'd love the entire swap for my mk3, 1.8t as well

[@RickGTI2019]

Welcome back to Florida. That junkyard is very much like the yards I used in NY many years ago. I think the yards in Germany were better and more organized, with more of what your into ! Don’t let the heat get to you, it’s all mental 😅! Thanks again, RickGTI….. 🌴

[@LuigiNathan]

Car content aside, can we get update on Christian please. It's little confusing as to why your suddenly in Florida like nothing happened. Just genuinely concerned if everything is okay.

[@andrewcannaert2179]

I back this, no need to spill everything right now. However we care about you Christian ♥️

[@Mk3Smith]

Honestly not sure when or if I’ll do an update. But I will say I’m doing alright and I’m living in Florida now.

[@indycollie6424]

@@Mk3Smith I mean this with all respect. It's obvious what is going on, the details are not our business. I remember when you went through all the crap with the shop that messed up your rebuild, you never put them on blast or nothing. You stayed classy. I respect you for you for that. These people asking could learn from your example and show some class. You do you, and stay blessed

[@guitarking4734]

I have a feeling that I know what happened...

[@rcflyer2000]

Great to see you visiting a Junkyard in Central Florida 😎 I am looking forward to seeing a Mk2 in your next video.

Hey christian the beetle is indeed stock with that body kit

[@boostaddict_]

There are still VR6s outside the Passat and Atlas, but not in North America. China gets the DDKA lol. 2.5l turbo VR6, so cool.

[@michellehavik2023]

brown honda is a civic... THE peak of honda little cars of the 80 of this model.. here over in holland they also drove around. now this days? they are all gone..

[@Mk4.Donnnn]

I suggest headed cfpp in Orlando I went there recently and there is a 2.8 24v vr6 with the o2m transmission

[@Mk3Smith]

Guess what I was today lol saw that and the 3.2 Touareg. It also poured and everything was flooded 😅

[@Mk4.Donnnn]

@@Mk3Smith yep that’s Florida for you one day sunny and bright then the other just dark and gloomy also you should head to ace cafe for euro night to see the cool things that pop up!

[@mikehowell6874]

Hey Christian that Beetle you were looking at is known as the beetle s it had a 180 awp in it

[@Crazy_Alex_7667]

1:40 i was saying like when they eventually come to the last gen gti/jetta they should put a huge vr6t or something in it

[@golfplatz123]

I can't understand why VW no longer has a VR6 in its range. 🙄People would buy it and celebrate.🤷‍♂️ It's very unusual to see you in a junkyard again. 😁 There's a lot of cool stuff there.👍👍😉

[@vwnut1995]

Vw uses the vr6 3.6 in the Atlas

[@golfplatz123]

@@vwnut1995 Yes, I know, but in Europe VW has not installed VR6 engines for a long time. We only get 3 and 4 cylinders here

[@vwvento5]

Probably because the engine is dated and thirsty.

they should get the vr6 back out there great engine, it had so much more to give 😃

14:19 I need two of those bbs rc's

[@Mk3Smith]

I can go back and get photos of them for ya haha not exactly sure what they were

[@WiresFanDrew]

YEAAAAAH…….!

[@otho03]

here for the VR rant.

[@otho03]

i'll add, they make a factory turbo VR in the chinese market.

[@adamfletcher2120]

Did you ever convert vw windows from crank to electric?

[@workingmanaudio2754]

Emissions and fuel economy target have to be met by car manufacturers. Governments are cracking down. That’s why the VR6 is being phased out.

[@Mk3Smith]

It’s not really being phased out though since they’re still making brand new ones in the atlas so they aren’t thaaat concerned lol

[@workingmanaudio2754]

@@Mk3Smith They are. That will change soon. Slowly they have been removing them. Not only in NA, but world wide.

[@orlandosantiago6398]

Yep; the VR6 is certainly not helping VW’s “CAFE” standards which is the average fuel economy for the brand as a whole. Im pretty sure the 3.6 is going away with the next Gen Atlas. Its very outdated by todays standards too.

i feel same way in the junkyard. always looking at everything to see what i can make work.
