I’m 50 years old. I’ve been a Chevy guy all my life, but I somehow have had a passion for Volkswagens since I was a kid! Type I, II, Squareback,Fastback, Karmann Ghia, 411, 412… Even Rabbits and Caddys!
Damnnnnnnnnnn. This brings me back. 🤘🤘
Thank you for sharing. I have owned 51 V-dubs. Modified every single one.. my first Dub I bought when I was 16. I am 55 now and still love em!!
Im almost 63 and my first car that i bought was in '79. It was a 1968 vw beetle convertible baja rig. Somebody had put a '72 1600cc engine in it when i bought it off of a pretty gal.
There used to be a massive VW junk yard in north west Arkansas. It had at one time 500+ VW's. All arranged by what they were .All the Bugs together and the Buses together and so on. It was called Way Out Salvage. I'm not sure if they are still in business or not .I traded off my old Bug years ago.
Aubreys in Orangeburg, SC has just as many if not more. Hundreds and hundreds vw busses, ghias, and beetles.
The closest thing to heaven on earth 😇❤️ 2 kinds of cars in the world VW and the rest 💯✅
Thank you for showing us those old bug's. Love those old VW vans.
Busses
Yup, that's what I was thinking and it came out van.
Sweet! What a goldmine for VW peeps who need parts! My very first car was a VW bug that needed fenders and other mechanical parts. At 16 years old, I sold my 4-H steer at auction and bought a 1974 bug for $400 (a long long time ago). My dad and I fixed it up together. My dad has passed; but I will always have these wonderful memories with him working on my lil' bug together.
Being this is in PA and everything in here looks rough $500 each is a cash grab before he gets $100 each in scrap metal. I haven’t seen one in the video that has all good panels. I can only imagine east coast under carriages
I had a VW Squareback that I used like a truck for hauling crap back and forth to college and later a Sirocco. Both great VWs. Another great auto expedition Parker.
The old guy knows some stuff but man he’s got a lot of stuff wrong haha
Exactly!
It would appear that most everything he collected was a waste of life’s precious time. Only a fool concerns himself with post ‘67 VWs of any kind.
His facts are slightly off on some things but wow what a collection, it’s a pity that most of them are hanging, but not a bad buy if someone needs a motor and box and some trim to finish a project. That red delux early bay with the steering wheels looked a decent one to choose.
Most of these are only good for some parts. Its such a shame the previous owner stored them so poorly, Pennsylvania winters are brutal on classics.
This old guy went around and bought all these cars then dragged 'em home just to watch 'em rot into the ground.
Insanity. I don't understand that at all
His money his choice. Most of us have/had good intentions just like he did.
@@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk😮
The guy is a hero, he saved them from the crusher! Regardless of the condition even if you bought 4 of the same you could most likely come out with a complete car for restoration. You can’t find 1 car in these conditions for less than $1500 these days!
You can't restore them all, but you can keep them from the crusher.
My aunt has the identical yard, she has 353 beetles and she loves them all, but has never denied a part to keep someone's vw running.
What an interesting video! Would love to see to Grateful Dead bus back on the road again!!
I have a old dead head bus.
Too bad they weren't stored on blocks rather than sitting on the ground. The rust would have been far less severe on those stored there
It is mind-blowing! Some sixty- seventy years ago, German plants ran 24/7 producing these VW'S to satisfy world demand, and now all these machines are lying on durt, which really offended Adolf Hitler. Think about all that much human labor and material, time spent to produce them. I am amazed by the junkyard owner's passion for collecting all these VW'S. I think he collected them throughout the United States. Thank you! Very Interesting video.
Hello, would like to know where this is at to come look, to buy
Dasher other than North America for rest of the world it was a Mark 1 passat, By chance for the 1st time in years at a VW meet someone was in a 412.
I remember wen i was a kid in the 80s there was a neon green bug in the woods at an apartment complex i lived at in sparrows point md. and u could see it from the parkinglot.
It was called isle of pines apartments.
Unbelieve place, wow love those VW
What A Pair of Guys a Wealth of Knocklege my Uncle had a Dark blue Notchback
You could possibly make an entire working car out of parts from this scrapyard.
like the fast back. Karman Ghia and siroccos
That place is very cool.
Dang, So much cool stuff. Goldmine!!👍
Mostly post 1967 junk.
Damn. Look at all that RUST
All the post ‘67 rust.🤣😂
I loved the video, i wish that salvage yard was closer (533 miles) i still have a 68 karmann ghia & had 10 or so bugs.
I'm a bit older than Larry, the first car I ever rode in was brand new '64 bug that I came home from the maternity ward in. It was eventually replaced by a '74 Super Beatle convertible (Ravena Green) that I took my driver's test in. My first car was a '74 Dasher that looked just like the yellow one (mine was red, they were based on the Audi Fox). Next was a '80 Scirocco S, that grey one looked like it had the S stripes. After that I had a '84.5 Wolfsberg Edition Scirocco that I owned until '99. Since then there have been a few more modern VWs but those weren't special like the older cars.
I'm crying. Hoarder letting them rot. 😢
that is really Sad, Seeing all of those Volkswagen Bugs, Buses, Karmann Ghia's being left to rot.
I would love to have a restored Volkswagon Beatle .
In the UK we had a multi coloured Golf & polo called the Harlequin , not a single panel was the same colour , think it was the Mk4 Golf and the Polo possibly Mk4 polo as well, thank god not many bought them they looked crap.
I'd buy that green with graphics right now!!!! IF I had money and was closer to it!!
Local car means cinders and salt every winter since 1970's
Love seeing. The old Volks home hoping to come up with some quick cash I’ll be heading on over from Northern Jersey
I was there today. Lot of it is already gone. Call before you travel.
Looked like my back yard- before the divorce 😢
Dont believe everything u hear,glass covered headlamps ended in 66.
Awesome video, thanks 😊
I grew up in the '70s with VWs, so I like the air cooled and water cooled versions. I'd love to get a Mk. 1 Rabbit GTI or pickup. or even a type 3 Squareback.
Wow, it's a good job I'm in a different country 😂
Thanks larry
The split window bus started production in 1950
El paraiso me gustaria visitar ese lugar 😊
In Europe Beetles with Rosystyle were only standard on the 1500 GT & 1600GT.
I had a '71 Beetle with the pop out rear windows, no rust or corrosion and in great interior/exterior condition. One of the worst mistakes I ever made was selling it for $500.
Yes that is big wow Peace out
Hi wondering if you still have the slide roof available? How much ?
A Yinzer I see.
Wish I was fairly rich and could visit this place. I would try to buy every last Volkswagen bug, engine hood door all the parts to them and all the rest of the Volkswagen cars no matter the condition and start my own Volkswagen restoration business until I offloaded everything, except for one car of my choosing that I would keep for myself, I would also have a big warehouse with an upper storage for all the parts and go through every engine rebuild every engine and try to get every car back on the road and restored I would also buy that kitchen stove inside that falling down mobile home trailer
Do they all have titles ? I could use a couple parts and pieces. I have a 71. Is this in Pennsylvania?
Goldmine 🤩
🤣😂It’s mostly post-1967 garbage that needs to be scrapped out.
Man that was so cool
The Volkswagon Beetle is the only car the most famous in the movie Herbie The Love Bug.With the 53 number.
I found me a treasure wow.
Oh my God, I'm actually thinking about starting a business in Mexico. Buying up old beatles and restoring them
Money pits
@@socaljarhead7670 they're actually relatively cheap to do full restorations on and then once going fairly cheap and easy to keep going.
Harelquinn golf is the multicoloured ones.
omg, top speed in 70;s bug was 80 mph
I was there. Pretty much all of them are rotten to shit.
I agree I was there today. Nickel dime parts are still getting hard to find though.
@@bartsimpson6767Absolutely. I bought an 86 Jetta diesel 5 speed four door. It was smashed on the passenger side and the body is rotten to shit. I brought the engine around and there are all sorts of goodies still there on the inside like trim pieces, door cards etc. If this guy had the patience to part stuff out he'd make 3X the money. It still breaks my heart to see them all in such sad shape.
If you want these types of cars you go to Europe and Australia,
@@Crosshatch1212 They're all over. Running and driving ones aren't too expensive. You can get one that needs some work but it's in decent shape body wise for $1500 USD. $500 USD gets you one that you could restore or just make it solid and drive it.
Not that I’m interested, but just curious, did he have titles for any of those?
My dream as Beetle fans ? to live there of course !! many thanks for sharing this paradise included Rolls wagen ! lol ! anyway for each car 8 / 10 000 dollars of restoration cost is needed, and no vintages as Oval or the graal : Split windows model....Anyway it's stay a paradise, sadly more and more rare on this earth..... take care Bro : )
It costs more the 10000 dollars to restore such cars or bussen. Here in Europe we are not allowed to do such restaurations anymore, or at least in Belgium, due to the low emmisions standards. I did it the past. Believe me, you will find a lot of rot beneath the paint and especially on the bottom. If you want to do it properly, all must be renewed. And drain your wallet
Did you get a beetle for free?
I had a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle it got stolen in Brooklyn I wonder if it ended up there
I’m a vw guy makes me sad to see them rotting away but good to know he’s selling, does he have a 2 litre kombi motor for sale
looking for type 3 parts
does he ship ? where is this ?
chrome 4 lug rims , pancake 1500 , shift knob , front and rear fenders , pedal assembly , brake reservoir with cap , Etc.
The Karmin this looked interesting. any dashs ? perhaps bus or early bug ? guess I need to measure. I think Austin is wider inside.
Man. When you said.... Larry... I don't know where I'm going.... I thought, no lie! You said you wanted to walk down the front of the bus line and then immediately walked out into the field. Meh.
They should not dump these valuable cars in such a place in such a manner.After all they also served a generation of people..They should all be restored and put in an Automobile museum and also give it to automobile collectors,Industrial training Institutes, scale model collectors who can use them as showpiece for study and so on.An automobile heritage conservation trust has to be started.If the automobile has completely decayed and has reached the fag end of it's lifespan and cannot be restored(somewhat similar to a person who has reached the fifth and final terminal stage of Cancer.),then it has to be broken down and given up for recycling.
Fluffy would be in heaven!
Where is this place im interested in buying some
Mountain Top, PA
Any 412's or 411's ? Any Type 3 Karmann Ghias , or Type 3 Fast backs ?
If only the vehicles can talk and tell the story’s
Donde es eso en que estado de el mundo 🌎 quiero saber para ir a comprar uno de esos para poder restaurar soy de puerto rico boricua quiero saber donde es en que estado se encuentra el junker
How much for all the dubs left?
WHAT ABOUT TITLES?
Beauti queens. I would organise, sleep and happily live there if I could.
I need this location please please please 🙏
No floor boards left.....they should have all gone to a warehouse....kept out of the rain and mud! Sad end to all these VW Beetles.
The floor pans are pretty easily replaced on Beetles at least.
I apologize for criticism but you left several doors open when you walked away from the beetles. You should try to close them back, I'm sorry again.
Great video... but some of the "facts" your host is providing are super wrong! Top speed, special editions etc
How rare are the aluminum vent covers for the engine hood
how do you contact this gentleman for parts? i could use some parts for my 1974 beetle!!

It’s in the video.. and in the description
@@backyardbarnfinds

Where is the location
Where is there one in Virginia?
a lot of late model stuff in poor shape, most of that junk will get scrapped Id imagine, there is an early mk1 scirocco at 50:25
Un crimen en toda regla
Older types are the cute ones. Those after 1970 are just repulsive. There are differences between them.
After ‘67 they are vile junk. All VWs.
grey 1 is scirocco.
It's callled Harlekyn the versions with different colours, he's wrong many times....
Where is this?
When the host of unique video about old VW cars says "I really don't know much about Volkswagens." I ask, well then why did you even sign up for this gig? Wouldn't there be oh, 10 thousand people more qualified to be the host?
You can’t tell that I went there to learn? Did you even watch the video?
Where are they located?
Mountain Top, PA
