Even in 2023, vintage cars and trucks are still turning up. Thank you for showing us the vehicles.

[@Spiritofthewild-d9o]

there are MILLIONS of old cars and trucks all over the place....so many its rediculous...whatever you want there are probably tons of them in junkyards..i cant believe all these old cars havent been crushed yet and are still sitting around 40 years later

[@creatorwatch532]

Great drop! Thank you for covering alot of ground for us and sharing these old treasures.👊

[@brianoneil2769]

What an amazing collection of cars.

[@jimmiebrown5014]

That is a 1968 Ford galaxie I had one just like that just

[@andrewbillingsley9377]

That is a 1958 thunderbird at the beginning.

[@leeradford76]

I like th automobile scene of America

[@daleclontz5421]

That 1st Mustang was a '66, and not a '69. Looks like the body, and floors are in super great condition. Most early Mustang's, Falcon's, Fairlane's, Comet's, ect, usually rust out in the floors, due to the vent cowl rusting out over time. My '68 Torino has a rusted out vent cowl that's going to have to get repaired in the future. Wish I had the extra funds, I would definitely be interested in that '66 Mustang.

Glad to see you got the Merc. If I had cash and was there, you would not have won that car! Both are great buys.

[@DolloffAntiques]

I don't remember but you can go to the McPherson auction website outof rapid city, South Dakota and see the results I believe

[@tellysavalas2966]

@@DolloffAntiques i wish i could, but they dont seem to like my IP, lol. That Pontiac coupe rocks!

[@bobhoward6676]

40 years ago these would have been salvageable but now the cost to put one back on the road is more than you could re-sell it for once working. Although cool looking at first a closer look will reveal rusted floors, trunks, frames, seats and dashes, if any plus all door and body panels, frozen engines, if any. All broken glass, and on and on and on and more and more, ect. You can't run out and buy these things. Everything has to be hand made now.

[@CharlesAtwell-or7bm]

At current values they would still be worth fixing. Stuff out there don’t rust like here on the east coast.

[@Jerry-up8bk]

NOT A 61 FORD THUNDERBIRD! ,IT'S A 58 ,59 or 60 T-bird Altogether different body style!

You are correct. That's what I get for reading what they wrote on the windshield and trying to see what I am filming rather than actually looking at the car.. 😆

[@richardbates2367]

That 50 mercury with a bored flathead V8 and a 4spd,or a built fe 390 and like a 5spd for a overdrive gear would be a neat rat rod build..

[@daleclontz5421]

True that Richard. Another sweet engine would be a 5.0 Coyote, but they require a lot of setup, and extra time & money to get 'em to run properly. But, it would be nice to have around 400 horses, and get 25 mpg though.

[@gpl422sda]

Did that 58 wagon sell in the auction and what was he going to do with the ones that didn't sell?

[@DolloffAntiques]

The stuff in the auction sold but that was only 250 of the thousands of cars he has so you may want to check with him.

[@gpl422sda]

None there?

[@DolloffAntiques]

Not sure. They have thousands of cars.. I only went to the auction and filmed this video there.. That was a very small portion on the yard so I would try calling them if I were you.

[@Ron-io3vu]

Really enjoy your videos here from 🇬🇧, it’s amazing how many places still have these beauty’s.

[@brianandrews7099]

Just like the new and used car market, antique cars have been crazy stupid overpriced since the pandemic. Sounds like the owners of this yard want to try to cash in by auctioning the cars before the market nosedives. Again, just like new and used cars, antique car values (especially parts and project cars) cannot sustain these kinds of overvalues, especially with higher interest rates and the high costs of restoration work, supplies, and services.

[@bobhoward6676]

Property taxes and inflation plus lack of replacement parts and unskilled next generation youths uninterested in cars have forced 100's of salvage yards all over the US to liquidate as the land is more valuable than the inventory that stopped moving. The current business model of wait for ppl to come and buy what they need nolonger works as no one really needs these part for daily drivers. Time to auction it all for whatever the market will bare and sell or farm the land.

[@joegrabowski6011]

That is a shill if I have ever seen it not a thing Before saw was worth the money paid ill bet the crushed is in there for two weeks yours look good

[@Spiritofthewild-d9o]

i cant believe all these old cars havent been crushed yet 40 years later....imagine all the resources that could have been saved and all the environmental damage from mining new natural resources ,that could have been prevented if these vehicles were recycled...its always better to recycle and old car than buy a new one

[@CharlesAtwell-or7bm]

If they had been recycled back then their value would have been low. Now their parts are sometimes very valuable to those trying to restore a car. Also some of those wouldn’t have been worth restoring then but now due to rarity they are worth it. If every car was recycled just as soon as it was taken off the road you could probably cut the number of old cars still left for us to enjoy in half or less. There are plenty of valid arguments that say keeping an old car on the road reduces the need for mining raw materials to make new cars and that could reduce the carbon footprint. In reality it’s a trade off and I am glad a few people had the foresight to save these old relics for a new generation of car buffs!
