When I look at these old cars. I think about all of the families that went on vacations. Just going to the grocery store. And all of the history behind these cars.
Some of those cars fixed up are worth a fortune today. I remember prowling round a junkyard in 1960 or there abouts when I was around 12. I found an old Marmon from the late 20’s. Not a wreck, could have been restored. Probably could have got it for a couple hundred bucks. Do you know what a Marmon is worth in 2021?

I like those old timey urban junkyards behind a picket fence between two brick buildings, makes me feel like I'm in a looney toons cartoon.
I love this video! A sight for soar eye !
Ahh the good 'ol days when you could go to the local neighborhood junkyard and find a cannon.
Wish I could find something like that today. What a gold mine it would be.
many of these places still exist man has to go into the back country and find them. I have found such places myself. Az. Co. Nev. N.M. Tex
wow.so much I'd love 2 have.if only each piece could tell it's story.
like the music
Great background toons
cool old photo's
Thanks!
Back when you could buy an old car cheap and fix it up. WOW
those pictures were probably a long time ago those cars are long gone
Boy this is the era of Moe,Larry,and Curley IF there ever was one! My Grandad Maynard as a very young man! Born april 13th. 1905----Dec.20th. 1985
la maldita guerra se lo llevo todo 😢
The saddest video I have ever watched....especially when they burn the interiors to get rid of the wood and seats.....
Some of these pictures are from the metal drives they had during ww2. My grandfather helped pick it up and load it on rail cars.
I wonder how many of those old junkyards are still around? And how many, if any of those old cars or trucks got saved??
Love relics
Me too!
Most of these probably ended up in the WWII scrap drive.
If I were rich I we have a coliseum of old cars.
Cars cool
Its funny how all the cars are on their side...probably to have access to mechanical stuff and no one was worried about saving body panels.

Where is this ?
Motor oil made from wolf's head! That's something else!
These cars all long gone and crushed, melted down made into new cars, probably a dozen times over
sad to see them sweet rides rotten away..
Greg Whited Yeah there were some nice rides in that junk yard.
So,not much has changed in 80 odd years
depressing

If only one could turn the clock back to those days, mind you I suppose a lot are the result of the 'depression'.
