A very interesting visit to this sanctuary where vehicles that have been withdrawn from circulation for years rest. Among all these beautiful sleeping American cars, two Swedish rarities deserve attention: at 4:05 a pretty 1972 SAAB SONETT III sports coupe which with its fiberglass body does not fear rust. at 6:01 another SAAB coupe, a 96 V4 model from the 1970s, which keeps company with the VOLKSWAGEN COMBI camper van.

hello and thank you for your appreciation.identifying forgotten cars is a very rewarding pastime.Last identification of a vehicle in your video and not the least: at 7:44 a very beautiful icon of English sports cars from the 1960s a SUNBEAM ALPINE which deserved to be saved...

​@@lamateur2004the Sunbeam brought back memories of a Sunbeam Tiger my Dad and I worked on, he bought it cheap , I was his daughter but he joked I was his boy cause I worked on cars with him and my Mom's girl cause I could cook and bake from scratch. I so enjoyed this old junkyard , Memories of Dad and me getting parts at junkyards that were in business many moons ago 😊

@@monsterglo Thank you for sharing with us the memory of your father's Sunbeam Tiger. As I have said ; succeeding in identifying an abandoned and forgotten car is already a satisfaction; but collecting testimonials from people who have owned, driven, maintained these vehicles from another era is even more rewarding!!

The fact that all these historic cars were simply left behind makes your heart bleed. Such a sad sight.
@JeffKopis
@JeffKopis 18 дней назад
But "historic" only becomes clear thru the lens of time. At the time they were abandoned, they were very common, and nothing special. The one that caught my eye was the '67 Galaxie 500 Fastback. There was also a 68 or 69 Dodge Coronet, but I couldnt see how many doors it had.
@JeffKopis
@JeffKopis 18 дней назад
I would also point out that the cars here are the LUCKY ones; decrepit or not, they still exist, whereas probably 70% of their contemporaries have long since been crushed, and made into Chevy Citations, Ford Tempos, and Chrysler minivans.

Jay thanks for the trip back in time for me , My Dad and I spent a lot of time getting parts off cars in junkyards that were in business 😊 I was his daughter but the only child they could have so he joked that I was his boy and mom's girl cause I could bake and cook from scratch. I always felt I had the best of both worlds that way ❤ I want a tip be careful when you're out there be careful of snakes there are copperheads and timber Rattlers around there cuz I grew up in PA

Imagine all those vehicles looking like they did when they rolled off the assembly line, parked side by side in a big open field, shining like a new penny. There were all brand new at one time, some of them were maybe even in the showroom of the dealership where they were sold. Some of those vehicles might have been the sale that made Bob, salesman of the month at Belvedere Ford! You just never know! Glad you went back and recorded that tour, thanks for sharing it with us!

Wow Jay! Seriously, probably my favorite video yet even with the abrupt ending😊. I could totally spend a whole day in that place. That police car is a real mystery. First off it’s probably the latest car you looked at. It’s an 80s Ford, Crown Victoria. Looks like it still has it complete police package including a radar unit and original radio/PA system. The weirdest thing is the name. It’s misspelled for PA. I couldn’t find a Pittsburg New Jersey but there is a Pittsburg New Hampshire. A town way up on the Canadian border. It has NJ plates though. Like I said a real mystery. Thanks for a great video. You are the best.

Actually people who love cars do that. If they hated these cars they would have all been sent to the crusher long ago. Someone used these to strip off parts to restore other cars. Now they themselves could be restored if someone had the skill and time to do so. I’d rather see them abandoned than crushed any day.

@ 2:3o ish mark, the Euro-VW Bug on top of the double decker bus! I'll buy that one please! It's a desirable aircooled VW that has semaphore turn signals on the door posts. I wonder how complete it is. Permission to purchase and hiring a front end loader would be a lofty goal to say the least. High and not resting in the soil is a big thing. Someone wanted this on to stay high and dry.

Bizarre. "The plot thickens," as they say. Just tried a websearch to see if there was a Pittsburg, New Jersey. Did a second one and included the "h" and got the result of either, "How long does it take to fly to Pittsburgh from New Jersey?" or without it either "Phillipsburg, New Jersey" or a generic, "We're sorry...no match..." ...Yet the car says neither of those are correct. Welcome to technology... 🤔🙄🙃
