Thanks for watching! I've got another junkyard video to upload while we were in Modoc, Indiana. It might be a week or two though before I can post it, I've got 1966 ford f250 video that needs finished!
A very cool video. Those vehicles sure do bring back some long ago memories. We just found your channel yesterday, we love it and are now subscribed. Just looking at the vehicles is a great way to bring back some memories. First found you with the Suburban video. We just bought one, 1999 and owned one years ago, 1988. Thanks for the memories, looking forward to seeing more like this one too.
Thank you so much for subscribing and watching along! I really appreciate ya! Hopefully you will enjoy all our future videos. More small projects, more junkyard trips, car shows and more! We're planning a documentary style video covering some small local classic car shops and lots lots more! Stay tuned!!!!
Thanks for the tour of the junkyard. That 59 Chevy Hood puregold hard to find. Too bad it's missing its trim. There's a salvage yard over and Southeastern Ohio and the Packard lover. Down in Virginia as well another one. You can find your location easily by going aways back on junk car Willie TH-cam channel. Thanks again for the lift around the salvage yard. As I used to tell mr. Good fliers it's fun to look at them and I don't have to get out climb over them.
@@route40rust 👍 hey I recommended your channel to a couple of other people. You know a lot of us like seeing salvage yards or junkyard and when somebody gives out the name location phone number man that's fantastic. Thank you for the reply.
That's a common fallacy that the 350 diesel block is a convert gasoline block but it is not here it is built and designed to have the same displacement. First generation is completely junk. The second generation diesel was decent but it had its own problems. They third-generation buy time we got that far it was pretty good engine but the reputation for auto diesels in the United States they wrecked it. I'm only speaking of the 350 cubic inch displacement from my experience with them back in the 80s. I personally would love to find a 98 regency brougham burgundy specially with the second or third generation diesel in it. I did the conversions. The big problem was they 200 metric transmission. You put 400 turbo behind it and improve the vacuum pump that's that's where the distributor sat in a gas engine, it brought the gas mileage from fording MPG down to about 28 MPG for full size Delta 88 Royale. But it was a great combination. And I still have that 350 diesel I took out of that car because I was young and stupid and listen to too many people to convince me to do so. But after that I worked with the diesel engine and the shortcomings. by the end of the run is primarily that Oldsmobile had ruined the American public and the American public did not know how to drive these diesel cars. People say the same thing about the 6.2 diesel. I had them in my motor pool when I was in the Army. And I still own one and have it on the farm. If any of that helps.
Cool I am near Portland Indiana lol, and I have owned 3 big 4dr 78-80 gm cars a 77 and a 79 Oldsmobile Delta 88 royale and a delta 88 brougham and a 78 Oldsmobile 98 regency 4dr leather interior tilt steering 350 olds motor
You are very knowledgeable about the pieces that you are looking at.
Oh man, I appreciate that and thank you, thank you, thank you for watching!
Very cool!!!!!!!!!!
Same as a 390 almost. Yes sir a FE!😊
Man, i wish we still had some cool old yards like that down here in Evansville. Nothing but 90s and newer stuff in yards around here.

Man there's a lot of H-Body Chevy's there! My first car in 95 was a 1980 Monza Spyder. It was slow but I loved it.
Obviously I don't know my 70's and 80's Chevrolets, but those Vegas grew on me - did they ever offer them with a SBC?

Packard upholstery? Ok..you funny gye!😅
😂
You missed a k5 blazer across from the 67 Ford 7up truck. Another of its parts will fit your surburban.
I think we're headed back up there soon, I double check that truck, good eye and thanks for pointing it out!
Those Olds diesels were just Olds 350s converted. They were very problematic and often got swapped out for gas engines.
That'd explain it! Thanks!!!!

One off a blazer should work
Cool I am near Portland Indiana lol, and I have owned 3 big 4dr 78-80 gm cars a 77 and a 79 Oldsmobile Delta 88 royale and a delta 88 brougham and a 78 Oldsmobile 98 regency 4dr leather interior tilt steering 350 olds motor
The BROUGHAM!!!!!!
I like to have a 98 brougham regency round 1981. Back in the day I am 1980 Olds 88 Royale 2 door
That is one neglected junkyard!
Yea, they prioritize their towing services but there are tons of good parts here - I've probably bought more here than any junkyard I've ever been to
I would like to have the whole truck!
The 7up truck or the brown/green patina one with the three welded bumpers?
Do you think that he would have a good 4R70W , a C4, and a Turbo Hydramatic 400? I would gladly give you my business.
I'll definitely write that down and next time I'm there I can ask!
did you never come to pennsylvaina yet
I haven't, should I make it a priority?
