- I was in Florida for the Daytona 300 and 500 but while I was in town I stopped in to visit National Parts Depot which is home to the owner's collection of over 200 cars, trucks, as well as parts and memorabilia. Sorry that this video is so long, but I could spend weeks filming each car and still not show you everything.

What a collection of cars! It is awesome! The cars appear to be in show quality shape!
Thank you to National Parts Depot for preserving the history of American iron.
It is an amazing collection, if this video blows up I’ll go back and shoot a video on each car in the collection
Thank you so much for uploading this! My heart was filled with joy admiring all these classics!
Thank you for watching, new video series is dropping on Monday!
I flew over from the U.K. last November, to have a look around the collection - and was so pleased that he had an Oldsmobile 442 (my favourite American muscle car).
They have so many amazing cars
That's an amazing collection! Wow!
Viewing that mustang selection I was on sensory overload - couldn’t pick just one fav - I had 6-7 of ‘em❤️
Yeah it is an amazing collection
Damn! I really have to go there! Heard a lot of great things about the collection! Greetings from Miami!
It’s amazing
william clay ford 's blue lincoln was painted the color of the detroit lions,which he owned!!!!
Millions and millions of dollars there!!!!!! Incredible!!!!!
Strictly a Ford man. My 69 Mach 1 was the same as your red one, only it was blue. The 1976 Ford Station Wagon was a perfect family car that any housewife would want. My 79 full size Bronco I had for 20 years. The car I probably didn't need was the 1972 Lincoln Continental, but it was the most beautiful of Ford's luxury vehicles.
Awesome bunch of cars
Yup !
Incredible cars. Thanks for video
Thanks for watching!
WRONG at 21:42 The Cyclone did have a turbo charged 4.3 buy it didnt come from buick. The Buick Grand Nationals had Buick 3.8 Turbo charged V6. The 4.3 is a Chevy Small Block with 2 cylinders cut off...
Yeah, I caught that after the fact, but after recording for over an hour and talking about 200+ cars sometimes it's easy to mix stuff up.
Cyclone was developed by gale banks also. He original was supposed to do the 1/2 ton 454 ss but they built that without him so they asked him to come up with a fast s10.
Correction on the 1973 Gran Torino Sport it is not the starsky and hutch style. That show didn't come out till 3 years after that current body style. Stop misrepresenting them
Nothing was “misrepresented” this video was shot on the spur of the moment when I got the opportunity to shoot the collection. I make more than a few mistakes trying to run through 200 cars on the fly… it happens.
Very nice collection!!!!! I would take home the Black Boss 429!
That is a great choice!
I've got to see this place.
look better than new
Some of them are pretty much new, just 50 years old lol
Actually the mustang was originally made in the early Epocene Epoch around 56 million years ago
Great video, really fantastic!!! Awesome and impressive... Thanks a lot!! Since then l have a little problem.... I cannot find a quiet sleep!... Never more.... Greetings from Austria /Europe 🤣😁🔝🇦🇹👍
Stefan Mayr glad you liked it.
22:03 pretty sure that's an early 80s Camaro, not a Pontiac.
Basically the same car, but sometimes when you are going through 200+ cars and talking for over 30 minutes you make a mistake.
Oh cool, wasn't hating, very interesting video☺
@@johnnyutah6056 No prob, I caught myself on a few things like the Syclone was built by the same team as the Grand National but used a different block than the Grand National.
Can't believe the guy skipped pass the 1967 impala!!!
Only so much time, if his video blows up I will go back and do in-depth videos on each car.
Nice look at the collection. Oddly the only 2 cars that i have seen so far with a "cookie sheet" catch tray is under mostly cars of the era where cars were just mass produced and are junky.! Just goes to show you even in pristine condition these cars were marginal at best!
Daniel Scott most of them had a tray under them just in case. The only one with a major leak was the Saleen Truck.
Re the 1959 "50 Millionth Ford" - the 352 is NOT a Y-block, the 352 is an FE engine.
Yeah I caught myself on that one too, but when talking about over 200 cars in a limited amount of time on the fly, anyone would make a mistake of two. I didn’t plan on shooting this video it just was an opportunity that popped up so I took it.
I would choose the 1969 BOSS 429 Mustang.
Yeah that black Boss 429 would be so cool to have.
thank you!
Of course
More candy than you should eat at one time. 👍👍
Way too much!
I’ve never heard a “car guy” misidentify so many cars and overlook so many important ones.
It was an impromptu video I didn’t plan on shooting plus there was an entire other room of cars. If you think you can get everything right in one take with over 200 cars have at it. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Great co;;ection I would take the Boss 429
Could have bought a green 69 Shelby Mustang when I worked there in the 90's. Unrestored good paint. Only 6k.
That is crazy
5:06 Why you skip past this black Buick like it is a turd ?
Couldn’t fit every car into the video it would be hours long.
were the boss 302 mustang
They had one they were restoring, but it wasn't in the collection at the time.
THAT IS WOW!!! ARE THEY FOR SALE
No they are part of a collection
Dude
You always skip right over the Oldsmobiles. What’s with You &
Oldsmobiles????????
There are even more cars that you never even saw, I only had limited time and was shooting on the fly. Of this video really blows up. I’ll go back to NPD and spend a week filming a video on each of the cars!
I know what you mean Dave. He spent plenty of time on the Ford products though!
@@Osceola36dd get this video to 100,000 views and I’ll go back and do a video on every car.
Awesome collection of Mustangs! But I couln't help noticing that there was not even one example of the '74-'78 "Mustangs"... most of which were basically glorified Pintos. Speaking of Pintos, not one of those either. Although they easily made up for the lack of Pintos with waaay too many Lincolns...
There were not any Mustang IIs in the main collection, I believe there is a Cobra II in the back.
@@TheGentlemanRacer Is that Cobra visible in the video? Idk, I didn't go back & watch it again.
@@robertbisson9499 No like 50% of what there is to see at this collection didn't make the video.
@@TheGentlemanRacer That's right, he did say that around the start of the video. Like "the brothers collection", they have so many cars that they can't display anywhere near all of them in one building. It's sad, I think probably 90% of the Mustang 2s were crushed during the 80s & 90s, (after innovative hot rodders removed the steering & front suspension parts for other projects lol.) Which is likely the reason we rarely see any today... unless it's a "collectible" like the V8 Cobra versions.
Now this vid was great beg to end!! Well done
Thank you!
Are the cars for sale
No it is a private collection
The Best Only NPD !!
They are a great company
In Memory Ian Stuart and Stigger !!
How can you visit?
Ali Juman the whole collection isn’t open to the public but they always have 4-5 cars in their public showroom.
@@TheGentlemanRacer OK thanks for the info
None of them, they are fords! Over all, its a great collection!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
How much for the Buick grand national I'm interested in buying the car
Not for sale
I guess that's why I can't find a GOOD used car anymore, folks buyin' 'em up!!
There are lots of cars still out there
Any of them for sale?
nope
May the ghosts of the original owners haunt them FOREVER.
Why?
The cars you started with are not Lincoln Continentals. Seriously if you're gonna come off like Mr Car Guy. Know your stuff.
Next!
Yes I know they are just “Continentals” but I hadn’t planned on filming this video so jumping in and talking about hundreds of cars on the fly anyone would make some minor mistakes. I am a car guy but I will admit I can misspeak from time to time when rolling without any prep or script on the fly.
It's easy to see your brand bias. FORD!
Ok...
If they'd only say to me pick 3 to take home .
Yeah we can all dream
Get you some of that!
What car would you like to see more on?
i lost count on many i owned, of these cars, over the years.
Really that is cool, which one was your favorite?
@@TheGentlemanRacer 68 torino gt 69 mark3. 73 cutlass man that one screamed.
93 black cobra
Yeah that car is amazing
Boss 429 for please and thank you
Yeah that car is amazing
I take the Cadillac
I am working on getting back to NPD to do a feature video on each car.
How about collecting fewer cars so you can lower the price of your parts!!
Yeah one has nothing to do with the other…. They also use the collection to verify reproduction parts are correct and fit….
Dump the unnecessary selfies and the music and resubmit it.
Ok Jet
@@TheGentlemanRacer I have to agree with Jet. All the extra noise and selfies are nothing but a distraction. It could have been a fantastic video.
@@anthonynelson9136 ok…. 😎
too many Lincolns.
Never too many Lincoln’s
It's a great assemblage of beautiful cars, although this particular video is more interested in Fords, since he can't seem to pass one by... as we all only get a quick glimpse of some awesome GM muscle
The collection is 90% Ford’s
now I know why car parts are so overpriced
hahaha he's been buying them for like 40 years.
they need to part all these cars out for parts......these cars are over priced and over rated.....these cars bring big money but in the big picture ....are they worth it....not at all....just old cars..
What 😂
Your comment is insane 🤡
