This is a dream come true for any car enthusiast. An old warehouse with a massive collection of classic cars that haven't been touched in years! I was given permission and the key to start these cars and explore their amazing history. Here are some of the vintage car makes we look at and try to start. Porche, Mercedes-Benz G Wagon, Rolls Royce, Range Rover, Land Rover, 2JZ Toyota Supra, and old Plymouth and a military Willys!! I even found a G Wagon with the Mercedes mechanical fuel injection replaced with a Carburetor! This was a ton of fun as you'll see in the video so let me know if you'd like to see more as I couldn't fully inspect every abandoned car in there.
I bought a super rare Mercedes AMG wagon!

Old gas in these Porches is pure poison. Ask Mr. Wizard
Ironic because the Porsche shop in my city burned down when the techs were draining old gas out of a 911 and spilled the tank
When I was a kid, my uncle leased a barn to keep his horses. What he found was upstairs there was a collection of classic cars, apparently forgotten. These were cool and included Dusenbergs, Hudsons, Studebakers and a bunch of discontinued cars.
Any car guys dream
No one cares
@@michaelwilliams807 then doesn't that just make the comment section redundant?
When I moved into my house I found a abandoned 1994 nissan frontier in the garage it was very dusty and the key was in the ignition. It took a few tries with some starting fluid but it started up and I use it almost everyday now.
Cars even Museums would kill for to get it! ...the First 3 Brands are Ultra Rare now...incredible!
Oh man, as soon as you started trying to crank those 928's I hoped they wouldn't start based on unknown timing belt integrity. The second one (US Spec early car), wouldn't have had PTV issues (4.5L 16v), but the first (Euro 4.7L 16v) would have and obviously the S4 (5L 32v) as well. 928's hate to sit and it's probably the last car I would ever try to start without doing a legitimate timing belt/wp change on.
I can understand car collections but this is the worst way to do it. 😞
Rodney Betz these old cars that are impossible to find parts for, setting in the “barn” is about the only way they will be saved for the next 40-50 years.
Well that makes me feel better. Thanks for explaining.
Rodney Betz I have a friend that has a barn with 15 of these types of old cars, he tries to restore one a year, but one a year costs him about $20k. He owns a machine shop as part of his business, so he has all the parts he can’t find custom made. But realistically to keep them all in showroom quality would cost him upwards of $1M year, he would need 2 speciality mechanics and tons of gaskets and parts. Instead he keep all of them in close to running shape and spends a small amount making one good every year. I think he like the hobby too. While is well off, I don’t think $1M a year is in the budget. But $20-50k is for him
99% mechanical parts for the G Wagon are still available. The 280GE was built until like early 90s (as CKD kits for Indonesia maybe even longer) and they are still being used by for example volunteer firefighters or as backup/offroad ambulances.
Lukas Vass the G-wagon is the exception in that video, but the Porsche’s and Plymouth whatever, you’re not finding much for those on Rock Auto
Nice change of pace to all the virus news & content - thanks for doing what you do!
Thanks for watching!
@@LegitStreetCars I can fix that paint in the Supra without paint entire car
A 94 Toyota, Scotty Kilmer's drooling over that one.
Trying to run stored cars with decades-old fuel - not too bright.
Indeed. I am so disappointed by Alex, this is so unprofessionally done. Those cars deserve better.
So true !!!!
30 year old fuel starts no problem, two year old "fuel" ... fogetabouit
one could argue that the old porsche jetronic systems all needed to be taken apart and rebuilt anyways after sitting that long
He doesnt give a shit about them. It got views, did their jobs for him. Sucks but not everyone loves cars the same way.
This is Hoovies garage in the future.
its Hoovies Garage right NOW!
😂😂😂
I thought this was hoovies garage when I clicked on it
So did i
nah,at least half of them are with the Wizard
Poor cars under a terrible owner. These cars should be driven/exercised regularly.
Probably were till the owner died and relatives kept it in probate over a decade or something
i've seen much worse. these cars are dry and protected. does a car collector storing classic cars in a shitcago warehouse want to have cars that can be driven off into the night after a thug breaks in? i think not. good insurance keeping them inoperable
@@gregh7457 mouse and mildew give them character tho :p
Gum’d up fuel is very difficult to get past. I would also never rev a cold engine.
And expensive. New pump, new injectors...
Worrying about a little extra wear and tear on revving these old sitting cars is nothing. He's only revving to keep them running as well..
Should have dropped the oil in them
@@m3dia95 actually no you want to run old oil for atleast 30minutes incase of sludge or sediment it gets mixed in and come out when you do change it
So, u didn't find them. U know the guy and he neglected them... And is giving u the key to one of them to start all of his old cars. Bravo
It is like being a kid in a toy store at Christmas time.
Loved it, loved it.
i can hear Tavarish coming with his trailer
Old fuel must be drained out before anything surely
Not when one wishes to "send it" ...
"Al Pine Na"
No man...it's "Al Peen Na"
I LOVE that second G wagon!!!
The early 928’s have 4.7 liter engines and the groovy interior is called “Pasha” very rare and in good shape
Fred Shanks
The really early ones had a 4.5 , then they went up to 4.7
@@Carrera-gp9od yes it is
@ Carrera 1972 ... Yep ... 4.5 liter (16 valve) V8 in the original 928 then 4.7 liter 16 valve V8 in the S2 followed by 5.0 liter (32 valve) V8 in the S4 / GT and finally a 5.4 liter (32 valve) V8 in the GTS.
The Automatic transitions are from Mercedes Benz 👍🏼
That’s right! I had an 89 GT with the 5.0 and it was an awesome car!
@ Fred Shanks ... that’s a cool 928 😎I had the pre GT super rare 1986 (1st year) 928 S4 Manual 👌🏼
This was done totally wrong. Old classic cars aren’t the strongest and trying to start them like that is totally wrong. On classics you need to change every fluid so it’s new. Check that everything is connected where it belongs and then start it. The way you guys were doing it isn’t the best, especially the porsches..
Makes you wonder if this is real...
Yep
Easy there on the cold revs...
Not his car ... what me worry?
@@earnestbunbury2103 maybe show some fucking respect to someone elses property?
Buy one of those Porsches, I promis to watch their videos every week on repeat!
Yeah, do not buy any old 928's, call me and I will buy it.
Or call me I'll buy em!
My dad's selling his 928 Porsche that's from the 90s he's asking £30k and he is trying to start it up. If your interested please text back.
It's only be sitting for a year in an underground parking lot. It's be as far as I'm aware restored to factor style though years of parts.
Unfortunately we do live in Britain so you might have to ship it, if you are not from or near Britain.
I have an 85S now so no interest in shipping one over, but if it is a 90's vehicle, that makes it a GT or GTS. Those are worth good money, but you have to make it run. You must make sure the fuel lines are in really good shape and that the timing belts have been changed. If the belt or fuel lines are defective, you will either bend the valves or set it on fire. Tell your father to be careful.
@@glmoore001 ok I have sent what you said. He is also going to sell his 2010 BMW M3 V8 and in the near future his P1800 Volvo.
I'd hand my 928 or 944 to anyone but him... my heart is bleeding watching this.
That Supra is GOLD, probably the most valuable car in the lot of them.
Definitely a gold find and most expensive. They fetch as much as a new Porsche almost
Actually, it's SILVER, not gold. LOL.
A Trail Duster was just a re-badged Dodge Ramcharger
Hello? Mancuso's Collision? I left my Rolls Royce for a paint job 10 years ago, are you done with it yet?
Mancuso: Yes, we are working hard on it, it won't be long now, no more than a year or 2 at the most. LOL!!!!
Just kidding, I was a body tech for around 15 years and a lot of shops I'v seen have a "Rolls Royce" sitting in the corner. LOL!!!! Great video Brother
the plymouth suv is honestly my favorite out of everything you started. The interior, the looks of the car, etc. The jeep from 1946 is a close second. I feel like you would have an amazing time in both those cars haha
Land Rover:
Steering wheel is on the right side.
Alex:
Steering wheel is on the wrong side.
It's on the ORIGINAL side! Ie. the correct side.
Agent 47 this comment needs more love
Us RHD people prefer the term "correct hand drive"
No, no. If the steering wheel were on the left side it would be on the right side. Alex is correct. The steering wheel being on the right side is on the wrong side! LOL
@@user-mr9uy9gj5l at least you guys drive on the right side, where as we drive on the left (correct) side - LMAO. Pity we can no longer import LHD cars in South Africa.
i love that he has no false pride he says if he doesn’t know he just doesn’t know how to and that’s because he’s human and willing to expose that love this channel
bruh, AWESOMENESS! I know I'm a jerk, being an automotive expert like yourself, and dealing with someone else's car, you NEVER just crank. you need to crank then off, crank then off, crank then off to get the engine wet. I was cringing every time you cranked dry.
I agree. Years ago I worked with car dealers. Wholesalers would come to the Boneyard which was trade in cars. One dealer once a month would cook meals for them to come check out his inventory. I would watch those guys go down the line starting vehicles. As soon as they start pedal would go to the floor checking for loose rods loose, Parts in engine. It would drive me crazy.
Not only that but pulling all that old fuel through them is stupid. If they haven't been started in that long they should have been drained and cleaned.
I really want to hear the 928s run!
Good fun. Thanks for sharing, loved the adventure.
That red G wagon has the exact same motor that I had in my 79 280 SLC! That's 6 cylinder is an awesome motor!
...and the Land Rover starts right up 🤔
_All these 928s, I'm in Porsche heaven!_
I want one now!
Gene Ebeling I see only 2 in this video but have about 45 at my shop currently
Yeah, I always liked the shape and those lights.
@@martinlang9615 _Didn't realize that the 928 was made for 18 years! Obviously earlier models starting from '78 are the least expensive, with the 1995 model being the most pricey. Think I would chose something in the mid to late 80's in the 928S, but the later 928GTS models are sick!_
I love the room in the old engine bays, loved working on my 1970 ford galaxy
Thank you for keeping us entertained while Corona grounded. Many of us cannot work now and great content is very welcome now.
14:30 power recaro seats (possibly optional OEM)? that's gotta be rare af
Mercedes wouldn't build a car with different front seats they are aftermarket
lee2217 a quick “mercedes recaro” search says otherwise, especially from that era
@@lee2217 Righto. Recaro seats like in the video were wildly popular with tuners in the 1980s. Same with Pirelle P7 tyres, BBS gold alloy wheels, Blaupunkt stereo system with control panel on flexible rod, aftermarket aerodynamic kits, etc. Then, 1990s came, everything fizzled up.
@@MEDIUMhouseblend what I meant was they don't belong on that car, Mercedes wouldn't fit those seats in the front of a, car and have different material in the back
@@InTeCredo I do remember the 90s
And I can't think for any sane reason why you would put recaros that don't match the rear seats in a g wagon
Its a boy racer type thing that you would have seen in a Ford escort or a vauxhall corsa but not a mercedes
"This is a customer's car...so I can't play with it"
Proceeds to mess with the buttons and knobs and not put them back in their original position.
Could hear the interior crunching too. Kind of a wtf moment.
pissed me off so bad
The hairs are prickling on the back of my neck - that was BAD form to not put them back in to their original position, my own child wouldn't even do that!! 🤬
@@GarryMcGovern and he pushed the big red button that said "do not touch" omg! he started ww3
Tony P he said that he changed it all back
I reached your channel looking for some Mercedes stuff more than a year ago. Living in Europe, I was curious about turbodiesel mercs in the US. However, I love your non-merc videos as much. This warehouse looks pretty close to any car fan Disneyland to me :). Thank you!
You don't have shocks but at 6:38 you have a huge black spider insider top left trunk lid!
After Car Wizard's video, I'd definitely have a fire extinguisher too :)
RUN ...
That Pasha stick 928 is worth $$$!!!
Shannon S not really
What a great collection! Thanks for sharing!
I just got my self an 83 Porsche 944. The 944 is a 2.5 liter engine that is as if they chopped the 928 block in half. It has balancing shafts to level it out. It’s 3 thousand pounds with a 50/48 weight distribution having the transmission in the back. It’s slow as hell but fun to run through the gears.
I'm seeing about a years worth of content here.
I would love to have that Duster
Really cool to see the "old" cars is being restored/make run again, this is the future... making something already build... to keep on running/going... and for the environment point of view.. very positive... Good video!
In aus we call them chrysler cherokki 4x4 they normally run a mopar 360cubic inch donk
Nice too see you get some of these cars running! This just popped up glad i watched it!
I'll take that plymouth trail duster please
Cool collection, very difficult to watch someone with clearly not much mechanical knowledge messing with them, found myself yelling at the screen more than once!
While that seems to be the consensus, i dont think any were actually harmed. They werent his to keep and he wasnt being paid so its a little much to expect him to do it right(oil change, fuel system drain and flush, etc)
I used to work at a body shop in NY and a co-worker that paint the cars he does a good job painting little spots he blended it so nice that you can't even tell that it was damaged and painted, that long scratch he'll painted it and didn't have to paint the whole car!!.he's really a good car painter.and make good money too!!.Shalom 🙏🙏🙏😊
OMG... thats ******** awesome.. love it!
The Range Rover is a 95 they only made the "soft dash" in the last year of production.
94 to 96
20:20 Range Rovers, old ones like P38s, OVERHEAT like crazy, and those SU carbs... Not exactly reliable.
3 Land Rovers appear on the video. The first one without the keys is a Discovery 1 from the early 90s, the second one that started is a Classic. The both share the same engine. This engine was used in the Buick on early 60s. Land Rover bought the project to install on the original Classic. On those two it’s the probably the 3.9 l version. They are tough engines. The ones that blow the head Gaskets are the last interaction of them the 4.6L. The third Land Rover, and the most valuable one, appears on the back. It’s a series/Defender. If it’s an American spec it has the same engine. If it’s an European spec, it’s probably diesel. No P38 in this video.
the 95 doesn’t use SU carbs, it’s an l-jet system lol.
SUs are the simplest carbs ever made and easy to tune if you have one brain cell. Ask anybody with a 240Z. Stromberg CDs look similar but are harder to tune when they’re worn out.
We pulled a Rover P5B Coupe out of a damp shed in Scotland ..rot box..totally shafted..its got SUs..without to much effort..it started..after sitting nrly 30 yrs
@@fotorabia If you know them well, I'm sure they are great. Look at Dulcich and the Quadrajet.
sir, you know nothing
Hmmm...don’t you usually do more than just jump start and spray hot sauce in the intake/carb? What about turn the crank by hand first to make sure it’s free and lubed, disconnect fuel supply and run off fresh fuel in gas can, etc???? Wouldn’t more cars actually start if you did this?
So far halfway through the video I’m cracking up that all the old Bosch K jet fuel systems are just too old and crusty doesn’t surprise me.
Mancuso's !!!!
9:21 whoever can guess what Ferrari it was should win a Carly adapter!
i wouldnt take a carly adapter if someone paid me lol
AlexK ...okay
@@AlexK-no2gs why?
WOW, that was close! When you mentioned the words "these cars" (reffering to the Range Rover) and "no problem" in one sentence, i could hear the space-time-continuum ripping apart. I think the not starting jeep was what got it back together...
Cool collection! That Plymouth is super cool, basically a rebadged RamCharger but it’s a rare find no doubt, most got thrashed by now.
“Land Rover know for not having any problems” lol come on you know your talking to car guys right lol did you really think the Jeep wouldn’t start come on
Sarcasm!
LegitStreetCars gotcha lol 😂
@@LegitStreetCars the early range rovers were actually very dependable
"Found" implies they were lost .
Friggen trail duster heck yea! Those were so cool, they had like a removable hardtop and could go into convertible mode like the broncos and jeeps.
I clicked away when the Carly commercial started. A true car enthusiasts would never treat cars that have been stored for a long period of time this way.
Imagine just finding a warehouse full of your favorite cars that has been abandoned and it's yours to keep
I will never understand stockpiling nice old cars and then letting them sit and decay.
I guess they're bought as investments
at 26:00 he starts explaining that the owner is slowly going through and restoring them.
They're stored indoors, everything decays with age. These cars are lucky
Mike Keiser yes, I heard that as well, but parking cars for decades and not keeping them in running order with the intent that one day they will be restored is silly. They will degrade to where restoration will become cost prohibitive.
Arizona Plates on the Trail Duster, Used to work at a Arizona Chrysler Plymouth dealership in the mid 80's and remember them. I-m
Kent Bergsma would freak out if he saw the haphazard method of trying to start those old G-wagens... But was still quite entertaining. The one time I tried to start a car that had been stored for just two years (E39 5 series) it started on its own but was super smokey and with a terrible rough idle. Was still fun nonetheless!
do you think that putting some new fuel in the tank would somehow get rid of all the old crap fuel in the fuel line from the pump to the engine?
Dan Hard No. tanks need to be drained and the fuel lines flushed. The old gas turns to varnish.
Who else clicked for the Supra? Damn shame that thing needs let loose
Thanks Alex for this awesome video! I know you were like a kid in a candy store!🐟
Great video. Thanks
That Supra worth 100K
The white Land Rover Defender on the back, probably worth more.
What is wrong with this owner? I'm in Chicago, let me help...
And now I'm off to look for a Dodge/Plymouth Ramcharger. Thanks Alex!
Love your channel. Cheers from Toronto
I'd go for that Plymouth Trailduster. The ARE pretty rare. They were the twin brother to the Dodge Ramcharger, with a few more amenities. Most of them came with a 360 V8, AC, power brakes, power steering, 4WD, etc. That one sounds pretty healthy for having 'sititis'. 😉
I'm drooling over that supra. So jelly.
That trail duster is awesome. Looks to be in excellent original condition.
Great video, lovely to see old cars
Really loving the Plymouth she is a beast
Yes! Now we're talking cars again! Firebreathing, gasoline guzzling - very very very good cars! :)
Dang, that's awesome collection of cars. I've got a couple of friends with one or two old cars but my neighbor has the biggest collection I've heard of, though it's in Chicago and thats a two hour drive from where we live, plus he's not in the greatest of health.
Great one Alex! Great job!
LOVED THE TOUR ALEX👍🤓🇺🇸
The Plymouth Trailduster was my favorite. My father has told me about them before. They are very rare and can be expensive to purchase.
Well, THIS is the content i've been waiting for!
The saddest part is 2007 was 13 years ago! Love the paint on the bronco. Ever use a manual choke bro? no just use starting fluid lol
Bring cars back to life!!! I'm jealous!!!
The 2.8l M110 motor inside the G-wagon was in some cars used with carburetor e.g. 280S W116/W123/W126
Cool! Plymouth Trail Duster. Almost as cool as the Jeep
The first red W460 is a Gelandewagen 280GE (not a G-wagon 😜 ) with the M110 2,8 litre 6 cylinder, used in many MBs in the 70s and 80s. In the SWB it was the fastest G at the time. The Recaro seats were actually a option, very expensive. The blue buttons are air inflatable lumbar support. Yes, I had them in my LWB 86 280GE, in leather. *luxury* 😁
I love my Carly. I have 2013 X5 diesel and have reset the CEL so many times I’ve lost track. An absolute must. Turned off the legal disclaimer, turned off the seat belt chimes, turned on close the back hatch with the inside button and the key fob.
I don't know why this is so entertaining
You always should connect the power jump wire before the ground. I taught that for 4 years in the US Air Force '72 ~ 76.
Absolutely true but its really only a problem if the battery has a cracked case or other fault that would allow fumes to escape. I dont know the exact figure but think theres less than 100 incidents a year in the US where batteries explode due to improper jump starts. The way I do a jump is pos good car, pos bad car, neg bad car, neg good car. The bad car use the frame etc for neg. This leaves the last connection far away from the bad battery.
26:45 That Supra roars!
Amazing!
Like the video, hope you do more of these types of videos in future.
old G460 have a M110.990 engine, the first was on k-jetronic, the second one was on M110.922 and its on carburator. k-jetronic as you know is mechanical injection with fuel distributor
those old g wagons are pretty cool. not a fan of the new ones but those old ones look pretty tough. that plymouth trailduster is amazing.
