Just think, One day these were new cars and people washed and waxed them every weekend. Now look at them. LOL With the cost of cars these days, I bet folks will start to take better care of there cars and make them last longer.
It's okay, looks like the doors, fenders and hood were stripped off. Those are pretty much the only valuable parts of those cars because people use them for spares on their racecars. Everything else looked like it was pretty much toast.
"When you hit a pot hole, thank your councilman!" (Bumper sticker on the Olds Cutlass Supreme--I had to freeze the video to read it)...although the Cutlass looked like it hit a tree...and to those crying about the Buick Roadhawk, who would have taken the time or paid the money to restore it in its pre-crushing state? Half of it was gone anyway

@@Carcrusher1998 Yes sir - and THAT has been going on all over the country for decades. Most salvage yards won't deal in stuff more than 10 years old, not enough sales volume.
People are idiots, that's all I can say. None of them have the money to even justify saving any of this junk. It's just all talk from their arm chairs.
1979-1980 Buick Skyhawk Road Hawk: The Rarest of (H-Body) Birds A new option was the "Road Hawk" package that included a Rallye ride and handling package consisting of larger front and rear stabilizer bars, larger tires, and special interior and exterior trim. There was also a "Skyhawk Designers' Accent Edition" that was primarily an exterior trim package available in bright yellow or red with black trim.

@@jaysmith179 It would unfortunately take a lot to change people's habits. Too many people trying to look "rich" by having a new car every few years and not having the desire to learn how to work on them. Unless we have another great depression, that's not going to change.
I happened to load UA-cam and saw the new video in recommendations.. don't get notified until several hours later after the upload. Also I find it funny that I can usually tell a car from the 90's..
You crush a tape stripe package version of a Malaise Era econobox that couldn't be given away new and that hardly anyone knew existed before seeing the title and Googling, which hasn't been on the road in 20 years, and suddenly you've lived long enough to see yourself become the villain. Baffling.
Nobody wanted that car back then, that's why they made the special package to try to move them. On the other hand we could have used the hood off that Escort for the Honda K swapped one were working on.
I remember my dad had to replace the taillight a couple of times from being broken I remember going to a junkyard & we were in luck my dad found the same Oldsmobile we had & it had the same taillights it had
To the guy filming. Just saying... Fire Department story. Many years ago we went to a salvage yard that crushes cars for a worker having a heart attack. He was nearby while a car was being crushed and suddenly dropped dead. On the way to the hospital we noticed a tiny pinprick size hole in the center of his chest. I'm Talking a DOT . No blood nothing, ZIP ! You could easly mistake it for a micro freckle. YEP ! You guessed it ! A tiny metal shard had lauched from the car that was being crushed and had ripped into his chest like a bullet , resulting in his heart being torn apart at the base of the Aorta ! Amazingly X-ray to see with the shard still in his chest. The Guy, never stood a chance ! And likely dead before he hit the ground. He was fairly young too maybe late 40s or early 50s.. Never know when the Grimm Reaper will pay you a visit ...
Buick also made a rare modified Buick Regal G body in 79 ,that had a 2 tone gray paint job with a 2 tone orange/red stripe between the colors ,blacked out chrome trim,grille & headlamp trim & taillights as well as a Buick hawk on each fender, I still got a pair of those hawks ,sold the 2 spare grilles years ago for good money too ,
Never. ever. thought i would see 1 again. in 83 moved back from a year in the big city. got a job. Needed a car. A friend sold used cars. Told him how much $ i had. (not much) he showed up in 79 skyhawk Roadhawk edition. Best he could do for what i could afford. Owned it for year and a half. Ugly. Hated it.Odd side panels. The spoiler blew off on the highway. Huge hawk logos every where.............ahhhhhhhhhh...those were the days
My first car in 95 was an 80 Spyder. It only had the Buick 3.8 & TH350 but I loved it. Wish I knew more back then cuz I could've squeezed a bit more power out of it when I yanked the engine to clean it up. I found concave lifters so I thought replacing them would help. I was young and stupid, so I only did the lifters. Duh.
Was my first car. A 1980. Bought it slightly used with 30,000 miles on it. I forget which motor but it was a six cylinder with 5 speed. Loved that car. Spent so much time waxing it that I scrubbed the paint off in a few places.

Customers say “can you pull this?” “can you save this for me?” And they never show up and what are you supposed to do now? It’s just gonna sit until someone buys it. But that someone could be in 1-5 years. Depends on the part, and how long it’s been in the yard.
@@Jerms995 Yes, that's how running a business works, you have inventory, you advertise it somewhere, and people buy it. odds are nobody knew this car was there to pick any pieces from it.
@@fryloc359 most likely what happened. This guy up the street from me had a 78 firebird on a trailer ever since I was a kid. It never moved and every 5 or 6 years I'd ask him if he wanted to sell it and he'd get pissed off and tell me he was going to restore it. After almost 20 years, he died and his wife had all that stuff hauled away.
This what happens when your grandpa gets lazy and they properly dont store it right they leave it set outside to let it rust and everything such a shame ngl
The ol Road Hawk didn’t want to go..
Fought you the whole way!
RIP 1981/1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme! 😓😿😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

@@jaysmith179 nope, I work at salvage yard in Orlando and we're already crushing cars less than 10 years old all the time

I would have saved that interior atleast sad that the Buick was so far gone. Would have awesome to see on the road today
Press F for the Cutlass. Love G-body cars

2:55 Looks like someone forgot to empty out the washer piss
Incredible rarity. Never knew its existence. Only better than “The Squeeze “ would of been running that Hawk in a Derby!
The Buick Road Hawk had a TOYCEN motors sticker on it. I remember that Dealership in Bloomer, Wisc. What part of Wisconsin is this salvage yard in?
Buick Road hawk , WOW,that is rare ,I never knew they made it
Yeap! Very rare on a Buick version,is a Chevrolet Monza platform
First time I seen lawn furniture and bedsprings get crushed in there.
You have to love it when you see MOPARs going away. Junk when new and still junk in the yard. No Dodge in my garage ever!

My parents use to have a 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 2 door & the taillights had airplanes on them
*Rockets
@@matthewbowen5841 oh that's what it was they looked like airplanes
I remember my dad had to replace the taillight a couple of times from being broken I remember going to a junkyard & we were in luck my dad found the same Oldsmobile we had & it had the same taillights it had
I learned to drive with my mom's '90 Plymouth Sundance. My previous car was a 2004 Dodge Neon and it was a lemon.
Loved the 85 cutlass
Them Escort taillights are selling for $ 40.00 bucks each on Ebay.
What is the "sold" price ?
Probably a neat Buick when new
To the guy filming.
Just saying...

so satisfying to see the glass go flying
Very sad on that Skyhawk the road hop packages extremely rare . I had one 🥺😣

Nothing crushes quite as nice as a EZ Crusher

Loved that car. Spent so much time waxing it that I scrubbed the paint off in a few places.
That Roadhawk was pretty soggy ! Was a goner to rot & decay
I used to have an 86 Cutlass
It seems like you spend most of your day doing this; how do you choose which stacks to upload?
Gold...red..gold...red..
I like this channel , no picking , no talking , just crush baby crush .
can you do a video tour of the yard ?
Had a crush on the '85 cutlass when I was a teen could not afford it on a McDonalds wage
My neighbor had the Monza Spyder that I used to detail for him in the early 80's. It was a fun car to drive.
Hell yeah brother

What was that thing in the trunk of the cutlass
I like how some cars just disappear
Hey you got to do what you got to do. You're there to make money. You're not a museum. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
They just don’t want to go in this time!
Sad Moment 7:37 :( They should have sold it as in Autoparts The Shadow 😪😪
Can't understand why they'd crush something with such unobtanium parts on it. Who runs this yard?
I agree. I see so many with rare parts still on them.
Cause when's the last time someone wanted parts for one. Just because something is rare doesn't mean there's a demand for the parts
Because, the parts aren't being sought after and you can't keep all of these cars. At some point they gotta go.

@@Jerms995 Yes, that's how running a business works, you have inventory, you advertise it somewhere, and people buy it. odds are nobody knew this car was there to pick any pieces from it.
The Neon and Shadow deserved it through.
This is probably a junkyard you can walk around and hunt for parts or buy the whole car. Those cars clearly sat there for years without any interest.
Maybe some old fart collected those cars and they say for decades before his widow decided to clean up the property.

Damn how many obsolete pre 85 cars are still left? Get rid of them all.
But you inside one when it goes.
Great job 👍

Good video... 😎👍💪
As always a great video. Thanks aswell for the expenation. Interesting information 😊
