There’s nothing that makes me happier than getting to go on a field trip to Clayton’s! It’s almost like bird watching. I appreciate the play by play on the makes, models and years. . I always have my eye out for a late 40’s salesman sedan. Wish I could afford one. But thanks for the junkyard/museum tour.
'" We live in a part of the wold that this stuff is still sitting around ". Your innocuous little quip really struck me. Here in the states that is quickly becoming a thing of the past. You can not even keep a car in your driveway without a current plate on it. Local governments are now fining you for such a offend. In the rural areas, town government are making owners put cars in the garage or insisting they be removed. The number of junkyards have dwindled to a fraction of what they once were. Really love your video !!!!! Oh Canada, eh !
Thanks for the Junk yard tour. The first car I worked on with my Dad I was 8 yrs old and helped him gave him tools and parts on his 1950 oldsmobile with its Rocket 88 took my drivers test on my Moms 1965 Olds Jetstar and then when I was 17 got my Dads Austin A90 Atlantic running and driving that had been leaving a rust ring on his driveway for 10 years. So this is always fun for me to see the old cars . Thanks for sharing.
It’s not just the wind noise, but the CRUNCH CRUNCH of your boots on the Alberta tundra. Hey, that Acadia at around 17:00 looks like it has vintage New Jersey plates! They’re that “wheat” (pale yellowish) color with black characters. Even the XXX-999 format is correct. Are those old Alberta plates? Hey, Frankie is getting big! Hugs and treats to her and Stella! Keep up the great work and congrats on 20K subs.
Awesome thanks guys, what would I do without cold war motors channel. I could spend a day in that yard ! Oh well back to my 1/25 scale cold war motors !
I think I would build a house at Claytons just so I wouldn't have to drive so far to smell the rust of life . Congratulations on hitting a great accomplishments and I'm not quite sure why it's not two million .
Thank You ! , as I have not enjoyed walking a junk yard in over 25 years . there are some amazing cars in this lot . you Agents deserve two thumbs up . Cheers and a pointy to you . Ray in Pa U.S.A.
I had a '65 Dodge Monaco 2-door coupe with a 383/4 barrel/bucket seats/automatic/center console, this was back in the mid-70's.. It was silver with a black vinyl top and red interior. A fun car to drive and a "looker".
63 Plymouth with a wedge motor was an extremely hard car to run down back in the day - they didn't have to slow down that much for sharp curves & turns...these junkyard videos are great
Great to see a junkyard video with commentary by someone sho knows domestic and foriegn. Was waiting to hear what you guessed the Imp was and really thought the 1800 Landcrab would stump you. I am impressed sir.
STEL! (Special guest appearance by the Frankers) This one takes me back to a typical Saturday morning oh say 35 years ago, wandering around the local junkyards much the same way you did in this video. I could identify about all of the cars and I knew the yards as well as the owners. Back then, I was either after "pahts" to keep my junker daily driver together or finding something needed for a brothers' or friends' car. Typical answer to the common question of "what brings you all the way out here today?" "Pahts, man. I need paaahhhhts." :-) These days in this neck of the woods, the very few lots left with vintage iron are pretty much off limits, typically because the owner got in trouble with the tax man or some such so they can't sell to the public anymore. But if you know someone who knows someone, well....this IS Tennessee, after all. CONGRATS on the 20k subscribers and I'm very proud to know I was one of the early ones. I discovered you some years ago when recuperating from my 3rd bout with cancer and about going out my mind trying to keep myself "busy" in the wee hours when sleep didn't happen easily. This all may have started out as a lark for you but please do know there are many out here who appreciate all the effort. Onwards to 1MILLION! :-)
This is the best 50 minutes of my day, thank you for bringing us along again!! I know what you're thinking. But the video is only 25 minutes long! I watched it at half speed to prolong the enjoyment!
Someday in the future your grandkids will be doing this but it will be " check out that vintage 04 Dodge Stratus ! "Oh and over there is a classic 1996 Plymouth Voyager mini van !
I would love to restore that '58 Buick, all I would need is money skills, tools, time and not to live on another continent. I do have the liking it part covered though!
I'm surprised to see that Datsun wagon sitting there as popular as they are. I imagine someone might go after it upon seeing this video. Very interesting to see, thanks for the tour!
goes to show that all these old American..Canadian cars were built with good steel..to see that most of them are in pretty good shape..exterior wise..makes the point..and everybody..car lovers or not..love junk yards..it stirs the imagination..thanks again..
An amazing place, so much treasure stuff. I was amazed looking at how well the chrome on so many of the cars is surviving and then the one front grille you need to source has a dose of the peelers. That is Murphys law at its best. How many acres does that yard cover.Its so large you need to be careful near the japanese cars as there may still be some japanese soldiers left who dont know that war is over yet .
Congrats on 20k, 25k soon coming! Found your channel a few months ago, and have gone back and watched all 169 some several times. I have the rust running thru the veins too, and have saved several 4 door and not so popular cars over the years. Thanks for all the enjoyment and keep up the great work. Thanks again for your time.
I love salvage yard hunt's. It was a treasure hunt every time I visited them in the 50's & 60's getting parts for my 100.00 beaters. If you think the pickings are fair today, back then you would have been in Heaven .
That was great!!! I musta said WOW about a hundred fuckin times. What a place to check out. I'd be snaggin that Stude pickup. Rare machine. Francie is getting big. I always like your videos, Hi vis and all. Good times and companionship. Love it.
Nice that you still have the ability to cruise around among this vintage tin. Around here, one of our former "First Ladies" thought all those old cars were "eyesores" so she had most of them removed. ;o( Made all this stuff much harder to find, much more rare, and much more expensive when you do find it. It's still laying around in private "stashes" and on farms and stuff. Barret Jackson and all the TV shows are making this stuff "the rich man's hobby". ;o( Glad you found those Chevy parts. That grille looked pretty straight !!
I had a 72 Mercury Montego GT at 8:07ish just like that 1 there,351 Cleveland engine and she was a screamer.thats a good looking car if it's repairable, with the twin hood scoops and shark gill accents behind the doors and before the back wheel openings.thanks for the tour and congratulations on finding 20k + nutters that think alike.
Oh wow! I haven’t’ seen one of those Mazda wagons (3:57) since I was a very young kid! ‘76-‘77 when I was in first grade, one of the mothers that drove our carpool had one, except hers was red. Haven’t thought about that car in *years*.
Hey Scott I owned one of those Datsun station wagons in the late 70's, early 80s for a month or two. My bud and I were 50/50 in a Torino with a misaligned valve guide, that was traded for the most fantastic 60 buick lesabre wagon mostly bondo and a dead cylinder. My bud needed something easier on gas so he got the datsun for $80 from a guy he worked with who bought cars to junk and occasionally got a runner, this lasted till the slave cylinder went out, so while the part was coming we learned how to drive clutchless, put it in first and crank and we're off, 2nd let off gas and pull it in, to stop downshift and turn the ignition off. To keep the buick himself he gave me the datsun with no rockers and a quart a week oil habit, a littleless burning with a little 90wt, but it flew and got scratch in 3 gears. I've always loved 4cylinder stick beaters poor mans sports car, at least the way I drive em
What a goldmine in that yard!! You're right about not seeing places like that around anymore. Whenever scrap prices goes up I cringe at the thought of uneducated ppl hauling away classics for a few dollars. Thanks for the tour you guys, it's nice to know there's someplace relatively close where the old stuff can still be found and happy 20k Scott!! Just remember us little folk when TH-cam mails you the gold button button award. 😆😆😆 The dogs look great, Fran is looking energized and ready to run. Thanks again for the great content and good times!!
Total respect for people who love weird old cars. Too Cool to Die ! Always the BEST channel -for any one's money and it doesn't surprise me that you now have 20,000 subscribers either. CONGRATULATIONS/you desrve them all. 10/10. Hi from UK = )
Wow! Great clip and salvage yard!I am kind of jealous!In Switzerland and probably all of central Europe those kind of salvage yards are gone forever.The classic cars crushed and gone.This makes me want to cry. Since I was a kid, those places had a magnetic attraction to me. Just to see these old cars of the past, rotten or not. For me this was much more interesting than any fair or show.The last one fighting to keep his car graveyard is a crazy friend of mine, he had to give up as he was forced by the stupid goverment to sell or crush his 700 cars (or what was left of them).On the other hand he would never sell things to any car owner for an acceptable price. At the end I got a front half of a car that I fixed up a little and put it in front of my house: An early Fifties Austin A 30.(The Wallace and Gromit car).People are laughing and are calling me nuts. But I don't care.It is nice to see that you can actually buy all those parts. Sometimes people are hording everything and cling to every litttle nut and bolt.Many of those vehicles reacall memories. The Renault Fuego is exactly the same model and color that my uncle used to have. He loved it so much that he even bought a spare car to keep it alive. I cut a complete rear quarter out of it and welded it on my uncles car. But of course the car is dead and gone now.You mentioned that you love 1959 Buicks: They are really beautiful. A Close friend of mine is buying and providing spare parts for the 59 Buicks.He built a storage and repair facility: I bet nearly half of the 59 Buicks in Europe got spare parts from there or are in storage there. Parked 59 Buicks in the place: 3 stations , 3 4doors one convertible and maybe some more cars and plenty of spare parts: Now there are also 2 1958 Buick Limited, (a convertible and a 4 door) and plenty of other classics from Mercedes 190SL to Thunderbirds, Lincoln, Barracuda and more.I hope I did not nerve you to much with my long post. But I loved your clip! As always.
Guys- as with everyone else here- we all have a sick attraction to rusty old relics and TOTALLY appreciate all the journeys you take us on. So much fun & Thank you. I tell ya- while I sit here in the cosmetic surgeons office waiting room for my wife to spend her money on what she likes- I dream of my 72 Fury wagon & a 70 Pontiac I've been eyeballing. The Pontiac was in a flood, needs a small patch job on part of the frame, engine was full of water but now runs and needs a tranny but my sickness keeps the glimmer in my eye that it will be mine soon :-) Looking forward to the t shirts & stickers.
Congrats on 20K, I just found your channel last week and I'm really enjoying it! I'm a huge fan of 40's and 50's cars, especially the orphan makes, forward looks, and 49-53 Buicks. Keep up the good work and you should really save that 58 Buick! It looks too nice to be in that yard! The 58 Dodge at the end too!
some of my favourite times when i were younger was traipsing through the junkyards looking for parts to my 122s volvo, my rambler 440 convertible ,67 firebird convertible ,68 mustang ,67 jeepster commando 1969 datsun510 ,1978 buick skylark i still have the volvo great car 860000 miles and still going strong
Scott, the Poncho at 10:03 is a 61 Strato Chief 2 door sedan. What is interesting is that the car was factory equipped with a V8 as denoted by the V badge on the heel of the front fender, pretty unusual on a base strato, like a Biscayne. Prolly a 283, but could have been a 280 horse 348 if the right box was ticked. Trans choices were powerglide or 3 on the tree.
I missed a good opportunity to meet you, out at Clayton's. Went to school with the ole coyote ( lol ). Well maybe a next time. I think that I'd get along with you and some of the agents. Refreshing to see you identify the year, make and model. Not many of us around with that particular skill set. I actually seen a few parts out there on my need list. As always a awesome video!! I look forward to work on the 51and those amazing French classics!
Great Vid! Car yards like this are nearly extinct in the Maritime Provinces.......good to see they still exist. Love the array of cars, I like them all....but the 50's Chrysler products really warm the cockles of my heart. How can you not admire the style and classy sounding names like Regent, Mayfair, Crusader..... Plaza, Belvedere, Savoy.......nothing raises eyebrows more than asking your parts counter guy if he has a ball joint for a 52 Cranbrook in stock. I love the Ford and Mercury cars as well, I have a 64 Montclair Breezeway right now. Really enjoy the vids and your appreciation for the long forgotten pedigrees. Looking forward to more and of course future editions of "my classic tire"! Thanks!
What an awesome place! I would get lost if I had a yard like that. I was bummed to not see any late 60's Oldsmobiles though. Of course, maybe I have the only 3 that are left, haha. Thanks for the video, Congrats on the 20K! I remember when it was 10K. . . Or 5K.
I haven't even finished the video, & I knew I had to like it...so many greats just waiting for someone to bring them back. I wouldn't mind having some of those Furys (Furies?) myself.
Overdubbing? I haven't been this disappointed since I found out the live album Alive! by Kiss was overdubbed. Keep up the good work, and keep the vids coming!
Absolutely love you channel I too like the different old cars We have 4 British Wolesely sedans and Lo e them Also have a 89 Mercedes Cheers from Australia
Love the fact you can rattle off all the makes model and year of those relics, what an awesome salvage yard, nothing like that here in New England well we have them but nothing worth picking
I really enjoy your videos man. Love these old cars, and I love watching you getting some of those babies running again. What I really, really love are the ones you do the body work and fabrication and painting em up nice. I get jealous of your bodywork skills because I've never been very good at it, or even very patient with it, but watching you do the great stuff you do is time well spent IMO. *Cheers to you, Stella, Francine, and the Agents.*
Your welcome sir, the girl's are awesome, i've been watching you guys right from the start, and always enjoy what you and the other agent's are up too, fantastic stuff!
These cars bring me back to my teens. I once owned Four '53 buicks at the same time , a Special, a Super, a Century and a Riviera. Two were straight eights/ 6 volt and two were V8's with 12 volts, Two 2 door hard tops, one 2 door sedan, one 4dr Sedan. I loved them but between my brother and I we had 20 cars in the yard so one day my Mother got mad and made us sell off all but 2 cars each.
Hey thanks for the note! Always a treat to hear from others with the car sickness... I've had it my whole life too, and I remember being told by my dad "all of these cars are gone by Saturday or you're outta here!" haha cheers!
congrats on 20 k ..and some cool old sheet metal. and yes i think the dodge regent was one of the first vids of yours i ever seen .so best of luck and here's to another 20 k sub's ....
That is another car nobody restores is those Olds 88's. My neighbor had one when I was a kid. We used to call it the Tuna Boat. The only memory I have of the car is a blistering hot day near the 4rth of July circa 1974 or so the thing had ice cold AC on a trip to the local hardware store I rode along with my neighbor and his dad drove it like it was Cadillac.
I'd be right there with you guys if you weren't on the opposite side of the continent haha :) Congrats on 20k! We greatly appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to make these vids. Looking forward to the next!
I like the contrast of hard edged mechanical shapes that somehow work together with the soft organic shapes in a junkyard.
There’s nothing that makes me happier than getting to go on a field trip to Clayton’s! It’s almost like bird watching. I appreciate the play by play on the makes, models and years. . I always have my eye out for a late 40’s salesman sedan. Wish I could afford one. But thanks for the junkyard/museum tour.
When you go to a junkyard and can point out half a dozen cars you used to own you might have a problem! Good job guys, keep it up.
Always love looking through old car yards.
'" We live in a part of the wold that this stuff is still sitting around ". Your innocuous little quip really struck me. Here in the states that is quickly becoming a thing of the past. You can not even keep
a car in your driveway without a current plate on it. Local governments are now fining you for such a offend. In the rural areas, town government are making owners put cars in the garage or insisting they be removed. The number of junkyards have dwindled to a fraction of what they once were. Really love your video !!!!! Oh Canada, eh !
Always as ever, A good day at Clayton's. Thanks and Cheers to All. I like some of the comments. You deserve 25K.
Thanks for the Junk yard tour. The first car I worked on with my Dad I was 8 yrs old and helped him gave him tools and parts on his 1950 oldsmobile with its Rocket 88 took my drivers test on my Moms 1965 Olds Jetstar and then when I was 17 got my Dads Austin A90 Atlantic running and driving that had been leaving a rust ring on his driveway for 10 years. So this is always fun for me to see the old cars . Thanks for sharing.
It’s not just the wind noise, but the CRUNCH CRUNCH of your boots on the Alberta tundra. Hey, that Acadia at around 17:00 looks like it has vintage New Jersey plates! They’re that “wheat” (pale yellowish) color with black characters. Even the XXX-999 format is correct. Are those old Alberta plates?
Hey, Frankie is getting big! Hugs and treats to her and Stella! Keep up the great work and congrats on 20K subs.
It is so good to see these classics cars, that are still here! I was born to have at least 5 . Better than that one will do, oh yes.😀😀
It's always a good day when you cruise a real junkyard.
Awesome thanks guys, what would I do without cold war motors channel. I could spend a day in that yard !
Oh well back to my 1/25 scale cold war motors !
Another cool slice of automotive history in Alberta. Thanks again for preserving it.
I think I would build a house at Claytons just so I wouldn't have to drive so far to smell the rust of life . Congratulations on hitting a great accomplishments and I'm not quite sure why it's not two million .
Thank You ! , as I have not enjoyed walking a junk yard in over 25 years . there are some amazing cars in this lot . you Agents deserve two thumbs up . Cheers and a pointy to you . Ray in Pa U.S.A.
Hey Ray! Thanks, and thanks for checking it out! A fun day for sure... Cheers from me and the girls!
I had a '65 Dodge Monaco 2-door coupe with a 383/4 barrel/bucket seats/automatic/center console, this was back in the mid-70's.. It was silver with a black vinyl top and red interior. A fun car to drive and a "looker".
Nothing like a Junkyard crawl to lift the spirits on a grey day! CWM comes through again! Thanks!!
Love it, thanks for the tour :D There's nothing I love more than scoping out junked classic cars, searching for abandoned treasure.
63 Plymouth with a wedge motor was an extremely hard car to run down back in the day - they didn't have to slow down that much for sharp curves & turns...these junkyard videos are great
Great to see a junkyard video with commentary by someone sho knows domestic and foriegn. Was waiting to hear what you guessed the Imp was and really thought the 1800 Landcrab would stump you. I am impressed sir.

This is the best 50 minutes of my day, thank you for bringing us along again!!
I know what you're thinking. But the video is only 25 minutes long!
I watched it at half speed to prolong the enjoyment!
Pha Q Dude! You could’ve watched it *twice* at regular speed to prolong the enjoyment!! C’mon, man! ;-)
Someday in the future your grandkids will be doing this but it will be " check out that vintage 04 Dodge Stratus ! "Oh and over there is a classic 1996 Plymouth Voyager mini van !
Junk Yard Dogs, thanks, roaming the rust brings back so many memories, a very nice escape to the past. Congrats on the big 20K.
Between Clayton's and your place I do believe I would be in heaven
look forward to your videos! you and your buddys remind me of when I was young and how we would work on cars
I’m amazed by their knowledge of classic autos.
Good video. I love walking around old junk yards too. Congratulations on the 20 thousand subs.
Thanks for the tour of the yard.. Looked like a perfect day for a walk.
You are so right. So lucky to live where these museums of mechanical history still exist. That 53 Meteor caught my eye naturally.
I would love to restore that '58 Buick, all I would need is money skills, tools, time and not to live on another continent. I do have the liking it part covered though!
A little piece of Car Heaven, there. Nice tour! Thank you. Congrats, CWM!
I'm surprised to see that Datsun wagon sitting there as popular as they are. I imagine someone might go after it upon seeing this video. Very interesting to see, thanks for the tour!
Scott, your channel deserves WAY more than 20K subscribers
goes to show that all these old American..Canadian cars were built with good steel..to see that most of them are in pretty good shape..exterior wise..makes the point..and everybody..car lovers or not..love junk yards..it stirs the imagination..thanks again..
Heartfelt thanks for all you do. What fun! Brings back good memories. Can't wait to rock a hat or hoodie when they come up for sale.
Waaaaay better than my last trip to the junkyard. It was hot as hell, found yellow jackets instead of the parts I was looking for.
An amazing place, so much treasure stuff. I was amazed looking at how well the chrome on so many of the cars is surviving and then the one front grille you need to source has a dose of the peelers. That is Murphys law at its best. How many acres does that yard cover.Its so large you need to be careful near the japanese cars as there may still be some japanese soldiers left who dont know that war is over yet .
Wow, you guys scored some real gems at Clayton's! Imagine the "My Classic Tire" episode you could do at that place, eh?
Noting like good old junkyard to make a man Happy!!! Lot's of nice stuff.
Love these graveyard videos! Please post more!!
Nice parts! As a Renault Fuego owner i was excited to see one on your channel.
Congrats on 20k, 25k soon coming! Found your channel a few months ago, and have gone back and watched all 169 some several times. I have the rust running thru the veins too, and have saved several 4 door and not so popular cars over the years. Thanks for all the enjoyment and keep up the great work. Thanks again for your time.
47.5K Should be 500K.
I could not have left without the '63 Plymouth 2dr. and the Studebaker Pickup.
I love salvage yard hunt's. It was a treasure hunt every time I visited them in the 50's & 60's getting parts for my 100.00 beaters. If you think the pickings are fair today, back then you would have been in Heaven .

love these Clayton's tours.Strike that, love all your vids...
It always breaks my heart to walk through a cool junkyard like this. I want to fix all of them. A man won't live long enough.....
I had a 72 Mercury Montego GT at 8:07ish just like that 1 there,351 Cleveland engine and she was a screamer.thats a good looking car if it's repairable, with the twin hood scoops and shark gill accents behind the doors and before the back wheel openings.thanks for the tour and congratulations on finding 20k + nutters that think alike.
Great video, congrats on the 20K, here s to 20K more
Fantastic, Hillman Imp And Austin 1800 Landcrab made me feel right at home.

I guess it's kinda off topic but does anyone know a good site to stream newly released movies online?
@Ethan Adriel Try Flixzone. Just google for it :)
@Jedidiah Douglas yup, I have been watching on FlixZone for years myself =)
@Jedidiah Douglas Thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!
@Ethan Adriel Happy to help :)
Congrats on 20k subs. Scott. Doesn't seem long ago it was only 10k subs. You certainly are doing something right. Enjoyed the video.
Fantastic video as usual . Wish there were scrap yards like that here in Cornwall.....
Recent subscriber, love the 50/60's stuff with the mix of European quirkiness.....
I love those Japanese classics, sign me up for that colt. Those Mercedes were super cool

Parked 59 Buicks in the place: 3 stations , 3 4doors one convertible and maybe some more cars and plenty of spare parts: Now there are also 2 1958 Buick Limited, (a convertible and a 4 door) and plenty of other classics from Mercedes 190SL to Thunderbirds, Lincoln, Barracuda and more.I hope I did not nerve you to much with my long post. But I loved your clip! As always.
Where do I send all my money? (just kidding). Loved the junkyard tour. Keep at it boys.
Not many places you can hear " WOW a Renault Fuego" it may be the first time a hear that :)
Guys- as with everyone else here- we all have a sick attraction to rusty old relics and TOTALLY appreciate all the journeys you take us on. So much fun & Thank you.
I tell ya- while I sit here in the cosmetic surgeons office waiting room for my wife to spend her money on what she likes- I dream of my 72 Fury wagon & a 70 Pontiac I've been eyeballing.
The Pontiac was in a flood, needs a small patch job on part of the frame, engine was full of water but now runs and needs a tranny but my sickness keeps the glimmer in my eye that it will be mine soon :-)
Looking forward to the t shirts & stickers.
Hey thanks, and thanks for checking it out! Yeah, I'm almost ready with the shirts and such...Cheers from me and the girls!
Woah! Thats alot to take in.
Glad you saved these from the scrap yard.
I am from Las Vegas Nevada. Rarely snows here.
Where is this at?
Congrats on 20K, I just found your channel last week and I'm really enjoying it! I'm a huge fan of 40's and 50's cars, especially the orphan makes, forward looks, and 49-53 Buicks. Keep up the good work and you should really save that 58 Buick! It looks too nice to be in that yard! The 58 Dodge at the end too!
By the way.. Congrats for 20,000 plus subscribers!!
Some great stuff in there. If you had infinite time, patience, skill, space, and maybe money you could really have something.
some of my favourite times when i were younger was traipsing through the junkyards looking for parts to my 122s volvo, my rambler 440 convertible ,67 firebird convertible ,68 mustang ,67 jeepster commando 1969 datsun510 ,1978 buick skylark i still have the volvo great car 860000 miles and still going strong
Scott, the Poncho at 10:03 is a 61 Strato Chief 2 door sedan. What is interesting is that the car was factory equipped with a V8 as denoted by the V badge on the heel of the front fender, pretty unusual on a base strato, like a Biscayne. Prolly a 283, but could have been a 280 horse 348 if the right box was ticked. Trans choices were powerglide or 3 on the tree.
I missed a good opportunity to meet you, out at Clayton's. Went to school with the ole coyote ( lol ).
Well maybe a next time. I think that I'd get along with you and some of the agents.
Refreshing to see you identify the year, make and model. Not many of us around with that particular skill set.
I actually seen a few parts out there on my need list.
As always a awesome video!! I look forward to work on the 51and those amazing French classics!
Hey thanks for the note! You knew Clayton? Cool... Cheers from me and the girls!
Great Vid! Car yards like this are nearly extinct in the Maritime Provinces.......good to see they still exist. Love the array of cars, I like them all....but the 50's Chrysler products really warm the cockles of my heart. How can you not admire the style and classy sounding names like Regent, Mayfair, Crusader..... Plaza, Belvedere, Savoy.......nothing raises eyebrows more than asking your parts counter guy if he has a ball joint for a 52 Cranbrook in stock.
I love the Ford and Mercury cars as well, I have a 64 Montclair Breezeway right now.
Really enjoy the vids and your appreciation for the long forgotten pedigrees. Looking forward to more and of course future editions of "my classic tire"! Thanks!
Hey thanks, and thanks for checking it out! Enjoy that sweet Montclair...Cheers from me and the girls!
Wow, I was the first one to watch this gem! Many cars I fell in love with as a kid. Vauxhall and Volvo looked very similar at one point....
That 53 Meteor grill would be awesome in the custom 50 Chevy you are building.
What an awesome place! I would get lost if I had a yard like that. I was bummed to not see any late 60's Oldsmobiles though. Of course, maybe I have the only 3 that are left, haha. Thanks for the video, Congrats on the 20K! I remember when it was 10K. . . Or 5K.
I haven't even finished the video, & I knew I had to like it...so many greats just waiting for someone to bring them back. I wouldn't mind having some of those Furys (Furies?) myself.
Cool tour. Thank You for taking us along
Jim
Agent 3620
Your car knowledge is incredible
Some lovely old stuff there mate... well done on the 20K subscribers!! Best to all in Alberta Cheers
Congrats on the 20K subs!! Love your channel, and the way you make your automotive resurrections look effortless. Greetings from Everett WA, USA.
Hey thanks, and thanks for checking it out! Always nice to hear from anyone else who likes this kind of thing... Cheers from me and the girls!
Great videos, love the old cars!
The dogs are the best!
Overdubbing? I haven't been this disappointed since I found out the live album Alive! by Kiss was overdubbed. Keep up the good work, and keep the vids coming!
Great vid! Congrats on the 20K! Enjoying the ride.
Absolutely love you channel
I too like the different old cars
We have 4 British Wolesely sedans and Lo e them
Also have a 89 Mercedes
Cheers from Australia
Love the fact you can rattle off all the makes model and year of those relics, what an awesome salvage yard, nothing like that here in New England well we have them but nothing worth picking
I was hoping for 20 cold starts like you did for 10! That was one of my favorite videos. This one is pretty good too, though ;)
This is from 2 years in the future, You now have 42k subs. :D
You should snatch that back window of that Barracuda, those things are hard to find!
Every forgotten Pontiac takes a little piece of my heart
I really enjoy your videos man. Love these old cars, and I love watching you getting some of those babies running again. What I really, really love are the ones you do the body work and fabrication and painting em up nice. I get jealous of your bodywork skills because I've never been very good at it, or even very patient with it, but watching you do the great stuff you do is time well spent IMO. *Cheers to you, Stella, Francine, and the Agents.*
Excellent video ! Thanks !
Man what a great place!! A car lovers heaven!
Congratulations on the 20 k subs! Think you need to bring the late fifties rambler back home!
Looking forward to the tshirt sand stickers mate
Hello from England Scott, love your video's, always interesting and down to earth content, keep up the good work!
Hey thanks, and thanks for checking it out! Always a treat to hear from anyone else who likes this kind of thing... Cheers from me and the girls!
Your welcome sir, the girl's are awesome, i've been watching you guys right from the start, and always enjoy what you and the other agent's are up too, fantastic stuff!
Need to do a Will it run Roadkill style from Clayton's lol buy something, make it run, drive it home👍
These cars bring me back to my teens. I once owned Four '53 buicks at the same time , a Special, a Super, a Century and a Riviera. Two were straight eights/ 6 volt and two were V8's with 12 volts, Two 2 door hard tops, one 2 door sedan, one 4dr Sedan. I loved them but between my brother and I we had 20 cars in the yard so one day my Mother got mad and made us sell off all but 2 cars each.
Hey thanks for the note! Always a treat to hear from others with the car sickness... I've had it my whole life too, and I remember being told by my dad "all of these cars are gone by Saturday or you're outta here!" haha cheers!
Hi from 🇬🇧. Congrats on 20k subs. Loving your work guys great videos 😁👍👊
congrats on 20 k ..and some cool old sheet metal. and yes i think the dodge regent was one of the first vids of yours i ever seen .so best of luck and here's to another 20 k sub's ....
Hey thanks for the note! Cheers from me and the girls!
That is another car nobody restores is those Olds 88's. My neighbor had one when I was a kid. We used to call it the Tuna Boat. The only memory I have of the car is a blistering hot day near the 4rth of July circa 1974 or so the thing had ice cold AC on a trip to the local hardware store I rode along with my neighbor and his dad drove it like it was Cadillac.
Those 70 furys were awesome with the 440s.
I'd be right there with you guys if you weren't on the opposite side of the continent haha :) Congrats on 20k! We greatly appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to make these vids. Looking forward to the next!
Congratulations on 20k. Love what you are doing
