ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ต.ค. 2024
- In this episode i come across an abandoned wrecking yard / junk yard and rescue a HQ wagon and a classic old Ek Holden but thats definitely not all we find. call it a shed / barn find or what ever you like but there is classic survivor cars everywhere, from a XB Ford falcon coupe , Monaro , Torana , a Mopar Charger ,a couple of chevy 56 / 57 , valiants , Commodore HSV clubsport even a few old jdm datsun and mitsubshi cars and much more ever a few old toyota 4x4 . So do take a look it doesn't matter if your into perfect body and paint work , patina , rust or whatever theres a bit of everything in this one for everyone. We will have a few of the cars we bought in future episodes shortly and hopefully you'll see them running and driving back on the highway after years of being parked and left to rot. cheers for watching Backshed .
Ok so you could have 1 car you saw in the video , which is it?
OR you've owned 1 car you saw in the video, what was it ?
1st ever car was a rare HR Premier. 186S, extractors,, discs, 4 speed, LSD, console with tacho, metallic paint, black interior all from factory. I drove it until it fell to bits. Could try to make another.
I think I saw a couple of Mitsubishi scorpions. 😂😂😂😂
That Torana up in the shed that's a gem but couldn't afford that either ! Would love to dig through that yard before they go to the farm..
I'm a Holden guy but I think I'd like that XL/XM? Ute - it looks manageable as a project and I'd prob leave it as a six and go back to a bench seat ..
If I could have one of them, It would be the Datto 1200 ute. Why? Stupid rare. I'm a Holden boy. Fricken loved this. I want all of them!
HQ Holden I love them very fond memories
Cheers James🍺👍
Mick
Fu- - - - love hanging out watching you fix up these old girls.👍👍👍
Cheers mate thanks heaps🍺🍺👍
This is good stuff, I am in USA. I am a gear head, drive a 74 satellite, I rebuilt the 340 in it dynos 425. Then took out 727 auto a shoved in tremec 5 speed, 355 rear. This is a hoot to drive. Still got some work to do. I always liked the cars you guys had down there, never could understand the 4 door hot rodding, that 351 gt sure looks good.i had a torino gt factory Cleveland and 4 speed. Keep showing videos.
Thanks Steve and yeah the ol Gt goes just fine with her new engine Hahahha.
Cheers for watching and please do share the channel with your stateside buddies I’d appreciate that greatly mate
🍺🍺👍
Mate,I used to love rooting around those big wrecking yards as a kid,all wide eyed and saying "Wow!!" a lot,finding the diamonds amongst the stones.....
Kinda makes me sad now though,with Holden and Ford both gone and all those cars,no matter what make or model,have one thing in common- they were all loved by someone at some time.Great to see some of that coming back for a lucky few.
Being an 8 pot man,the HJ GTS would have drawn me like a seagull on a chip.
Hahah yep I hear ya mate I’m going to have another look at that GTS shortly
🍺🍺👍
Love your work mate! So good to see a quality Aussie channel for old cars!
Cheers Banjo

@@backshed5295 was there any XA Ford looking for one if you can let me know at a good deal
Don’t remember an Xa just Xb/XC but very bad condition only really good for bits and rust cuts.
@@backshed5295 ok thank you
I am loving all these old classics. I have an HJ Premier station wagon 2 tone white roof Claret bodywork, Statesman Caprice front, 308 V8, Turbo 400, air cond, power steering, Electric windows, Lowered by Peter Brock dealer team in 1986. Engine was rebuilt by Larry Perkins racing in 2003, absolutely flies. Love your channel, keep up the good work.........
Cheers Noel , there’s heaps more coming mate🍺👍
Saveing our automotive history. Well done that man👍🇦🇺
Cheers mate
🍺🍺👍
@@backshed5295 no cheers to you mate love a Holden🍻🇦🇺
Oh my gosh I love Holdens especially V8’s beautiful classics
Cheers for watching Megan , stick around as there’s heaps coming including your Holden v8’s.
🍺👍
@@backshed5295 thank you for the reply I certainly will look forward to seeing the next video. I love Holden V8’s especially because my grandfather had one Kingswood and it was immaculate and I wished I got my hands on it because it was so special.
We have 2 Kingswoods coming up shortly Megan. 🍺👍
I love your videos 1980 I owned an Australian factory built 1975 Ford Fairmont XB 302,, beautiful car when I sold it Ford Metallic blue registered here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 1977,, I can still remember the NZ plate number HZ 5536,,
Watching your videos and seeing these old cars that I grew up with and drove makes me happy,,
Unfortunately I have too many vehicles all running warranted and registered,
Perhaps one day I may decide to let some of them go ,,, keep up the good work,,
I’m learning all the time of new things from you and your videos ,,,
Cheers mate
Yeah saving a bit of old stuff puts a smile on my face too Charles
🍺🍺👍
He certainly had a nice collection of vehicles
There certainly was some rare bits of gold in that yard
The yellow xd wagon unbelievable two scorpions a sigma and the 200 b
Too much to take in really
🍺👍
Did a lot of surf trips on gravel roads in the ol HQ wagon.
Good times.
🇦🇺👌
🍺👍
I love how people hang on to old cars until they are beyond salvageable.. Warms my heart no end.
Yeah I know some are past it but a lot of these yard were collected back when they were worth nothing , all the junk out there that is too far gone will go to repair cars that still have a chance of fixing.
Cheers for watching
🍺🍺👍
@@backshed5295
I bet if you go past in another year's time nothing will have changed.
A lot of those cars have been valuable for many years, yet there they rot.
Mate I know the type of places your saying but nah mate you may have skipped through the video and missed that all of the vehicles in the sheds and out the back are all moved to a farm now . The sheds were sold and new owners have moved in.
Cheers for watching mate and stick around there’s heaps coming
🍺🍺👍
@@backshed5295
I saw the cars in the shed, most of which were gathering dust. It doesn't detract from the fact that many, too many, people collect cars to "do up" and they refuse to let anyone else have the opportunity while they rust away to nothing.
Just my opinion.
Yep we have all met that guy Hahhaha in fact I put a post on my Fb about exactly that not that long ago
Backshedmick fb and instagram
Plenty of great cars in this one. Thanks for sharing 👍
Your most welcome Bin Chicken.
🍺👍
Loved it Mick,
I could wonder around wrecking yards for hours. Looking forward to more episodes.
Cheers mate
That one was ep18 , have you seen 19-20?
Dude, I have to say, it's the 1st time watching the channel and I have to THANK YOU heaps for doing your part and saving these old girls. It honestly made me feel so sad to see them in the condition they're in. Hopefully ya next find might be an old Valiant Charger (my favourite)
Cheers Roger
Thanks for watching mate
🍺🍺👍
Love it. What an awesome place and so much history and so much yet to be discovered when it’s all parted correctly. I can hear the excitement in your voice. Thanks for the chance to see it. I love what you do Mick. So much so, that I’m heading to your online store now. I’ve never done that… with any TH-cam channel. But again.. I love what you do. And you are my favourite TH-camr.
Cheers
Too kind Peter I really appreciate you saying mate
🍺👍
Same here! Couldn't have put it any better myself 👍
So good to see such places still exist, my first car, XK Falcon ($200) I had so much fun just going to a wrecker and grabbing Pursuit badges, various dashboards to 'upgrade' to an XL, springs hinges for the hood, even the chrome Falcons hood ornaments etc, all in plentiful supply and going for a few dollars. Such stories are common I imagine, but this reminded me of those times. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure Brett , yep I remember these type of cars you bought for next to nothing too mate . Big $$ these days and less around so I’m saving what I can bud.
🍺🍺👍
Dare I say it, I owned the AP5, VC, VE, VF, VG, VH, VJ, CL & CM Chrysler sedans, hardtops and Chargers in the first half of my life. Even the Morris 1100. I forget how many there were until I saw this vid. If l had a shed like this guy, l would probably still own them all. Only farmers and factories had big sheds back in the day.
Amen !
Cheers for watching Luke
🍺🍺👍
The EK has wider Blinkers than the FB. Like your show, and all the gear there. good stuff.
@@SimonManning-z5c cheers mate 🍺🍺👍
Glad you bought the Falcon ute. Looking forward to seeing a episode on that one.
Mate I’ll stop talkin and get into it hahahah

Great Show...Thanks for doing it
My pleasure mate I loved it
Cheers Shane

the EK brings back memories I'm 54 and the first car I remember my dad having was a dark blue white roof EK sedan hydramatic then traded for a HQ wagon column auto 202 kingwood in GOLD
Full episodes of the Ek and the wagon soon
🍺🍺👍
Broke my little heart seeing all those classics rotting away😩😩😩🙄
Mine too mate
🍺🍺👍
OMG a little Morris WTF that was the first car I ever owned. 1951 two door and had the indicators on the side just behind the doors. If anything, I would love to see that rescued and back on the road. I love my Valiants, I've owned both Holden and Fords but more into my Fords now. Love ya work mate, bring them all back to life.
I’ve asked the question about $ on the Morris ya never know what I’ll end up with.
🍺👍
Just discovered your show today.I'm in my mid 60's now and back in the day those HQ'S etc were just cheap second hand cars. I wish i had kept them all. I'd be rich!
Yep I hear ya , back when they were worth nothing !
Cheers for watching mate.
🍺👍
That was awesome what a gold mine find
Cheers Dwayne
And stick around mate there heaps coming
🍺🍺👍
Cool definitely looking forward to it 👍🏻
Had a '74 HQ, went from 253 Trimatic to 307 Powerglide to 307 Saginaw to 350 Saginaw to 350 Turbo 400. I remember '74 was the first year of the ADR regulations, the '74 HQ had amber front parking lights. Wish I still had it.
Hahah sounds familiar mate , more power! Haha
Cheers for watching mate
🍺🍺👍
This made me so happy, couldn't stop smiling. Hard to believe a time when these cars ruled the road.

🍺🍺👍
valiant 60s 70s pick ups were the work horses in south africa and Rhodesia. few barracudas were around .1970s TRAX car factory made jeeps 4x2 and used valiant engines gear boxes front suspension and rear axles imported new from oz .

Mate you are a deadset legend love your work mate me and my 17 year old watch every episode you have keep up the great work mate 👍 cheers 🍻
Cheers Grant thanks for saying
🍺🍺👍
My childhood to my youth was in that place from the late 50’s to the early 80’s. I remember when the roads were full of those cars and one day, like everyone else you realise they are all gone. Oh hindsight!
I wouldn’t know where or how to start to restore them, so jealous of your skills. Enjoyed the video, thanks to you and others that save them. Brings me joy to see one of the old big 3 on the road. Was even happy to see the Sigma, another important part of Australian manufacturing history.
Cheers mate and yeah I do love seeing them on the road too
🍺🍺👍
Man that brings back memories for me seeing the Q wagon! My dad had a 73 HQ wagon silver in colour and the ol 253 under the hood with the magnum wheels on it! They were the days of classic not plastic! Thanks for the video Mick
Your welcome George
Sometimes the best bit about cars is the memories!
🍺🍺👍
Sounds like the best holiday ever. Love that you buy any make of car. If you love them it doesn’t matter what they are. Can’t wait for the next vids. 👍🤘
100% mate ! I love cool things that run , don’t care who made them.
Cheers for coming back mate 🍺🍺👍
@@backshed5295 I never miss a vid. Bloody cool stuff you do. Can’t believe you haven’t hit 100k subscribers yet. People need to share your vids. Keep them coming. 👍🤘
We haven’t been going long mate it’s growing . That’s only episode 18 👍👍🍺
Feel free to share the videos on you favourite pages mate . It all helps
Just found this channel and I'ma about to binge it 🤣 pity this wrecker closed up shop. I spotted a red GT4 in the video that I wouldn't mind having a closer look at.
🍺🍺👍
I remember that Ford XC Xb in the days unregistered 500 how I wish I kept them. I just got looking at your channel didn't get TH-cam alert anyway brother love stuff. Bring the Cortana
Cheers Trent
🍺🍺👍
My overall comment has to be (to use current terms with all the modern day Knobs) OMFG! Way too much to choose from, they all need to be saved/salvaged. Really enjoyed this, thank you.
Your more than welcome mate I loved it.
🍺🍺👍
Holy crap... that EK. I would nab that EK in a heartbeat!
🍺🍺👍
chaa nice the holdens pitty its not here in New Zealand thank you for that enjoyed the touring roun 👍👍👍
Cheers for watching mate

Friday night, fridge full of beers and a fresh Backshed Vid!?
Christmas came early this year
Welcome back polarbear
🍺🍺👍
Great vid! Nice to see old cars still out there. The one that caught my eye was the silver mink HK Prem in the corner of the shed. I’ve got a soft spot for the EK too. 👍
Me too mate haha
Stick around the Ek is up soon
Cheers 🍺👍
Cool very entertaining
Cheers mate🍺🍺👍
I like the look of the rolla
Me too
🍺🍺👍
Watching your video brought back lots of memories, cause I did own quite a few of them during 70's and 80's.Thank You
Ya most welcome mate and thanks for watching
Cheers 🍺🍺👍
Wow what an amazing find, how did do much of Australian history and millions of dollars of it all end up on a farm, he must of been collecting it for year and years, it was like a funeral when you were walking through them all with the music 😂😂, I had to keep going back and looking at them because I couldn’t believe my eyes, and your spot on there was parts on every car like you said even the trims, great video I’ll show my mate he will lose his mind seeing all these cars, liked & subbed cheers mate
Yeah mate I hope the music in that bit reflected how I felt , sad as crap but in a way hopeful because they aren’t going to get crushed or anything.
🍺🍺👍
Our family had a HQ, 202 in a burnished copper type of colour. We used it for everything, but what makes me wince now is that we used to back the boat into the saltwater. Hosed it out when we got home, but you never really get it all. Car is long gone, replaced with a short wheel based patrol, but I doubt its still around. Would have dissolved by now.
Hahaha yep probably mate.
🍺🍺👍
Bloody beauty, mate! It's fantastic that you tripped over that place before it all disappeared like so many of them have. I saw an Austin A50 and a Mitsubishi Sapporo - both of which I've owned before and loved them for different reasons and you just don't see many on the road or in junkyards even any more. A few old Commys that are just starting to become sought after too - again, most of which I have owned over the years, so great for nostalgia. Like you, I'm like a pig in mud when walking around similar yards because I see models I've owned or always wanted to own and every car is a potential project until I start looking at them with my second self's practical eye and built-in calculator.
That green EK - mate, what a find! She's another beaut, that one. Looks to be mostly maintenance (hydraulics and other items you'd usually go through on a rebuild anyway under the bonnet) and interior trim that needs the hard yards and that HQ wagon is a diamond in the rough, but strong bones by the looks - another great score.
Over here in Kiwiland, all the yards with old stuff have gone except the more rural or famous ones like Horopito Motors (of Smash Palace fame) and in the main cities there's nothing except modern yards that won't sell you a whole car because they make too much off selling the individual pieces. There was a late model Triumph 2500S and a 79 Mini that appeared recently in one - both in good enough nick to be put back on the road with little work - that got stripped bare and eventually crushed. Now THAT'S a total waste.....although I suppose the parts went to help restore others or keep them on the road, so maybe not so much total as just a waste of good classics. To find old metal like Holden, Ford or Chrysler, you got to go out of the main centres though and it's mostly people who have collected or hoarded them over the years that have them in private "collections" in rural yards and so only word of mouth (sometimes by talking to locals) that you hear about them actually being there.
Glad you showed us though and will look forward to seeing them come good as you get the time to bring 'em back. On the weather - yeah, loving this summer of warm rain. All it does is make the grass grow longer and the humidity hit in the high 90s. Just what you need for working outside with a welder, eh..... All the best.
100% mate they are still out there .
Yep looking forward to some warm weather.
Cheers mate
🍺🍺👍
The Mitsubishis' parked back to back? Known as the Sigma Scorpion in Australia. A reminder of how so many of 1980's cars, which are not that long ago, have vanished from the roads.
Loved this episode Mick, I hope to see another video of the remaining cars at the farm one day!
Yep I’ll keep you posted mate
🍺🍺👍
Thanks Mick, very enjoyable mate. Can't believe the EK, you did well!
Cheers Matt
🍺🍺👍
It does not matter if it is here in the States, or where you are in Australia, if you are a car guy, its fun to go through a wrecking yard to see what treasures they hold. In one of the scenes you caught was a 1962 Ford Galaxie convert. Wowsers! I love '62, '63, and '64 Galaxies. It looks like you have picked up some good cars to work with. Maybe you and your family need to go on holiday more often! Great work on the videos. Keep them coming.
Thanks Kim I appreciate ya saying mate
🍺👍
There are a lot of hidden gems in these country towns. Looking forward to the new episodes. Any date in mind?
New video on Sunday this week mate . Then we get serious and start on some of the wrecking yard cars . I’m pumped Hahha
🍺🍺👍
Great find Mick. I've owned 16 HQ's over the years. Used to pay $100 for a complete running wagon just to get a diff... Very jealous of your find...🍻🍻
I hear ya mate back when they were worth nothing hahah
🍺🍺👍
Omg what a gold field you found, wish i stumbled across it before it got moved. I would love to have gotten my hands on any of these old classics to throw my boredom and lot of spare time into getting back on the road. Just found your channel today and glad i did, your doing justice to these relics. Look forward to watching all your previous vids and upcoming ones.
Cheers Chris , mate if ya bored and have spare time tell me what model ya want to work with I’ll grab 1 for ya next time I’m there I can’t save them all by myself hahaha.🍺🍺👍
@Backshed your a legend mate, I would love to get a hold of a eh wagon or eh sedan. It would be awesome
There was a few EH ‘s out there but some were pretty bad . 🍺🍺👍
@Backshed o could imagine theh were, it's a shame they weren't saved before they got so bad. I would be happy with any good old Holden that's not to rough and could be used as my daily driver, you got a bargain with your hq wagon from what I seen you paid for it, well if you do ever find a good one please let me know mate,, keep up the great work with all your posts and builds 👍🍺🚘
Made it to the end! Yeah loved every second, so many sweet cars in there! was naming the models & varients along the way. Cheers for a great video!
So many ! I watched the footage as I was putting it together and was still seeing stuff I missed . Just too much to take in.
I should have been writing a list
🍺🍺👍
I used to own a 72 hq wagon wasn’t fast but I loved that car
Easy to fall in love with a HQ mate 👍👍🍺
Agreed Mick, in the Falcon Ute chuck a 302 Windsor, C4 and you probably have a spare 9 inch from one of your F Trucks. Then have some fun with it..
You never know what might come of it mate.
🍺🍺👍
I'm mostly a Holden guy. HZ 308Ute for 22 years til I sold it in error back in 09. VE SS Redine utes since then.
Love the old 60s Falcon ute you chose in your video. A beautiful thing. That'll be a great restoration.
Cheers mate
🍺🍺👍
I love old Australian cars. The style and body lines are beautiful. I really enjoy all your videos. I find myself learning about your countries automobile history. My favorite is the XB but you big block Holden is very cool. Never thought I would like a four door car but I’m leaning. Thanks for sharing. Big fan
No mate thank you .👍👍🍺🍺
I wish I'd known about this place sooner, my parents live in the town and I live an hour up the road. Apparently he's closing up at Christmas time.
I'd love to get hold of one of those Valiants.
🍺🍺👍
Best vid you’ve done yet mate❤ and I try not to miss an episode as they’re all rippers. As a few others have said it’s great to get a look around from inside the fence, and so much coolness in one place. Keep doing what you’re doing mate it’s fantastic, and even the sneaky trailer Reno was sweet. Cheers and merry Xmas
Thanks mate I appreciate it , and yeah I threw in the sneaky trailer Reno so you could jump up an grab another beer without missing any cars Hahhaha
🍺🍺👍
Hiya Mick wot a great find his
Cheers Shane
🍺🍺👍
Awesome, love to see some old Val’s there. I need another one I think 😊
Hahah
We could do a 318 or 360ci swap in your Ute ! Hahah
🍺🍺👍
Really good to see that you're putting some of these old classics back on the road, good luck mate 👍
Cheers John
🍺🍺👍
Ej wagon looks like it had the remnants of a flashing kit sold by the dealers back in the day. Pretty pricey nowadays! Great video mate!
Cheers mate I’ll look at the chrome next time I’m there , there really was too much to take in .
🍺🍺👍
Loved this ep. Would have loved to see more of the LX Torana V8 hatch (used to own one) and the GTS Monaro (wish I did own one). Lots of lovely metal and memories. Thanks for your great work, love the channel.
Thanks Murray I appreciate it mate
🍺🍺👍
My Dad would have got excited if he saw that Humber. Can't wait to see what you do with the EK though.
Cheers mate
Thanks for watching
🍺👍
Found the new binge channel! Awesome to see there is still some saveable cars out there in our country, the old shed finds.
Cheers for watching Oliver
🍺🍺👍
Geez hearing that 202 starter motor and (briefly) engine brought back so many memories. Seems like yesterday I used to set my timing by ear😁. Cannot believe you don't have hundreds of thousands of subscribers.
Hopefully 1 day mate but we are only pretty new to all this and it’s growing. 🍺🍺👍
That EK has a correct front grill and bumper.
All that is missing is the bonnet bar (that will be the cast aluminium/chromed version that has a sharp point with emblem not the blunt all chrome one).
I have owned many EK's right up to 2 years ago and am looking forward to seeing your build on this one.
Cheers, Scotty.
Yeah mate I’ve been told in the comments I got my front’s around the wrong way Hahhaha I’ve got too many to be an expert on any 1 model. Ek won’t be far away mate so stick around.
Cheers for watching
🍺🍺👍
Very interesting. Love the XL ute. I have a green wagon.
I had a sedan as a paddock bashed when I was about 13-14 I’ve always love the dash on them so yeah I’m pretty glad to grab that one.
@@backshed5295 me too. Mine was a blue manual XL wagon. Paddock basher. Wish I still had it.

It was mate I reckon you could walk around all day and still miss stuff

I like the yellow Chrysler with the mags on it. They were a good car. Good transmissions diffs and motors. Sad to see all the old cars deteriorating in the yard. He could make this a museum, I'd love to walk around that yard. New owners though, I hope they don't trash them.
🍺🍺👍
Some cool clean shells there wish I was closer
Me too Hahahha it’s a fair drive for me each time I go

Now that's my idea of a holiday and my kind of amusement park. No idea how you managed to narrow your selection down I'd still be there trying to decide I reckon. Love the channel and hanging to see the build vides
