I absolutely love it when someone takes a walk thru video of salvage/junk yards. I understand that some are too big to see all, but your time is much appreciated! I thought about doing this as well, and I figured an owner probably wouldn't want me there filming his/her stuff. I even thought of breaking up a walk-thru into separate videos of the yard was too big. Thank you very much for the video!!

Used to have a budy down in western Tenn. with a salvage yard, he'd sell whole cars, sell stripping rights to a car, all you could take off in a day (possibly two is he was feeling generous) but never pulled a part himself. Unfortunately he passed away about 20 years ago

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983]

[@drskull9]

@CAROLDDISCOVER-FINDER2525 he was in his late 80s when he passed, he had a good long life.

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983]

@@drskull9 it's seriously reminds me of a story of two guys talking read aloud in line at the McDonald's 20 years ago. One of them turned 86. Two boys probably about 15 years of age and they were good boys. One said to the other wow that is old. The man that just turned 86 could obviously hear well. He was talking loud so his friend could hear him. He told the young man yeah I used to think it was old too until I turned 85. That has stuck with me. But I'm glad your friend did have a longer life. But person still misses their friend when they pass away.

[@davidjones8680]

The old Peugeot wagon is the 404 model. My father purchased one brand new in 1970, and it was the car i learnt to drive on. He sold it in 1976 and Purchased a new 504 wagon. It was a good car but not as good as the previous 404. Many thanks for taking the time to do this video Silas, there is for sure some very interesting vehicles in that yard, including the british stuff too. Many thanks David in the UK.

What a iron gold mine! I could spend days there! Love to save some of those Corvairs, Rare 61 Oldsmobile limo, & Cadillac professional cars (especially the ambulances and flower cars). I spotted several vairy stripped Corvairs! We've got a guy coming up from Oregon to get the quarter panel off a '62 700 sedan! I spotted at least 3 Forward Control Corvair 95 (Corvan & 2 Greenbriers!) That red '61Corvair Greenbrier had a spot light on it (wonder if it was a fire dept rig, I've seen a few). What a great video! Glad you got some goodies!

[@smarthome2660]

My favorite thing I saw was the 1970 Galaxy 500. I had one with a 351 Windsor with dual exhaust and Sears Muzzlers. From the side it looks like a fast back but the rear glass is almost vertical like the Avalanche.

[@tommylord]

Are you talking about the yellow one @ 25:55 ? That's a 1969. I have a soft spot for the 69-70 Galaxys because one of my classmates had a '69 in high school and I took my driver's license test in a '70 wagon, which had a 390.

[@smarthome2660]

@@tommylord Yea, I think this was the one. It has been 40 years since I owned mine and I had never seen a 1969. I did own a 1969 Fairlane 500 fastback too. I also owned a 1969 Cobra with the 428 Cobra Jet. Who knew these cars would be so sought after these many years later. They sold dirt cheap back then. My 1968 Torino had a badass 390 in it.

Huge old car lot with a lot of hidden classic treasures. Thanks for the video.

[@Awsom47Merc]

My buddy had a Chevy Monza (like that Skylark) that was a factory V8 4spd. It actually had some balls . Sorry Silas, but we used to call those fake continental tire stampings on Valiant deck lids "Toilet Seats" ! 🤭. 59 Furys had them too. We used to call 71-73 Mustang Fastbacks "The Whale" cause they were so big, heavy and slow. Especially when compared to 64 1/2 - 66s. Those 58-60 window Dodge Suburbans were called "Town Wagons". They just raced a rustbucket 58 Studebaker President on Coldwar Motors Channel. A lot of Dodge School Buses were sold to Indian Reservation Schools. Those little Dodge vans were called the A100. I like the 53 Dodge "Leaping Ram" hood ornaments too. I put one on my 55 Dodge C3H truck which never came with one. That Imperial flower car is ultra rare. Someone should take that on as a project. Another good vid Silas. 👊😎👍

[@CraneofBoulogne]

Honda Civics were available for a few years with a CVCC engine; CVCC stood for Controlled Vortex Combustion Chamber, essentially a pre-combustion engine with a small intake valve in the precup with the sparkplug and of course the large combustion chamber was configured as normal but with no spark plug. There were two intake valves, one of which was normal and near the exhaust valve, but the other intake valve was relatively tiny and was of course in the top of the pre-cup near the spark plug. The idea being the richer mixture in the pre-cup would ignite the lean mixture in the main combustion chamber. The carburetor was configured with one small throat jetted richer and one jetted leaner; the thing worked well, got good fuel mileage while meeting the strict exhaust emission standards of the day. I remember those well because i worked on them often back when they were being sold.

[@kevinshowers6477]

Hi Silas The Plymouth Valiant with wheel on trunk from 59-61. There were some 1962 that had them. The 1957 Chevrolet they produced more Bel-airs than the 210. I am a Mopar man myself

Silas. The Aronde was made by Simca - a French company that Chrysler bought. The older, heavy bumper cars were not Packards but Lincolns circa 1948 👍

[@lisaforsythe5325]

I'm going to make a prediction.. hear me out .. I just had the brakes done on my Edge. It cost me $1,000 just for the back end, rotors calipers and brake pads. Parts are insanely expensive. I think that is because they do not want us gassers to be able to find parts because they want us to buy electric cars. Places like Browns are going to be Kings among men because they have parts. Even if you have to rebuild them they will be available. Because you won't be able to buy new parts.. this in the future is going to be a huge money maker. Mark my words

Used to be a small junkyard with only pre 1970 cars only in Fordsville Ky. It was named Brown's. When i was in my 20s i rode with my moms then husband took me there ans we walked around. He picked out three 1947-1950 chevrolets. He had already brought home a complete 1947 Fleetline two door car that we soaked the cyls for 2 months and messed around with the rest of the car, brakes and etc. then got the stovebolt to turn over after soaking in kroil. Once the starter turned thru the harness we pumped the oil out, set up the original ignition to fire, carb had already been gone thru. A replacement factory fuel pump and a new tank supplied the fuel. It started and ran. Got it to idle and we drove it down Ky-54 just like it was meant to be. That car had the vac canister that would shift the three on the tree "automatically" if the revs were up then the clutch pushed in at a certain rpm. Weirdest poor man auto ever. Anyway there was a total of 4 chevrolets pulled from that yard. He put 3 down in the bottom for "someday" but truth is those other 3 were too far gone. One was a 50 Chev hardtop 2 door. My love is Oldsmobiles and this Brown's yard had more than a few. The place is closed to the public now, but i think it still exists.

[@loisstinnett9066]

[@williamstamper442]

14:00 i believe its a 1954 Henry J. The hole cut out of the hood for a scoop of some kind kinda gave it away. Its not the 1950ish version Henry J people used for drag racing...i think its a 1954 but i could be wrong.

As we come into this new world of artificial intelligence, there is not going to be any room for reminiscing our past. We will be letting go of most everything about how we even live today.
