These cars have been sitting there a long time. 20 yrs ago, I bet a lot of these cars could have been saved. Sadly, nothing there is worth saving unless its a big block car or Shelby and they still have the ownership (title) to go with it. Still, its an amazing place, and I would love to take a walk through there like you guys did. And I too am amazed at the quantity of fastbacks. Those should have never been left there to rot.
Thank you so much for sharing this video! I can't even believe a place like this still exists. It is very inspiring and heartbreaking all at the same time.
Mustang Ranch lol. A buddy near me is gonna freak when I share this. He's built 2 fastbacks and is hooked (good profit!). He tells me that Ford rarely made > about 50k each year starting in 64 through 70 even when they were making 400k or 500k Mustangs each year. A few years they made less. So many in one place is mind blowing.
This yard you're in has alot of 60's era musclecars that are worth lots of $$$ even without motors in them. These guys are literally sitting on a gold mine ! Wow ! ! !
If you look close you will see it is all sheetmetal and pop rivets trying to make it look like a Shelby. I spent many hours in Baxter's when I was building Shelbys and he keeps all the real Shelbys and Shelby parts under lock and key
So awesome you really went out on a limb getting video of those old mustangs, really wish we had a junk yard like this here in Taiwan, but nope, I'm outa luck till I return to US next year. 😐
Hey Tim, you still got that wicked fast 66' Fairlane GT with the 427? Man you gave me and two others a ride in that beast. This was the Penn Avenue days in the late 1970's I remembered you raced a 70' Silver Chevelle SS with the 454 LS6 motor, you left him in the dust inhaling burnt rubber from those big slicks. Dude you have always been a talented and gifted mechanic and engineer, I was and am in awe of your skills. Peace!
Very cool relics for sure but nearly everything is very well picked over after several decades: most parts are gone, most are laying on the ground, interiors exposed to weather, damaged bodies. Everything you see is what is left overs. The only things of real value I've seen as a pick-in-pull is some 65-66 fastback rear glass and some fastback trunk lids and maybe even some fastback bodies. Those fastback bodies are still there because they are to far gone where it matters (floor pans, firewalls, cowls, frame rails etc). Don't get me wrong, they are all restorable if you want to throw crazy amounts of money at them but it's got to make financial sense. Being that this place is in the rustbelt, you can guarantee everything would be considered to far gone for most restorers. Let me know what you are seeing and I'll see about pulling it and sending it to you.
Like a walk down memory lane when I was a kid, and these cars were only a few years old or just off the trailer at the dealership! Sad that many of these Gen 1s are salvageable only as bits & pieces, but you really don't see a whole lot of boneyards with this many from then ... It's mostly IIs, Foxbodys, and the later ones...
Cant believe it's only 40 minutes away and you've never been there before ? considering what you do id be in every local scrap yard looking for parts for my projects/builds
I live in Wisconsin. Keep in mind when watching this video that in Wisconsin they use road salt. So it's highly likely that these cars also have a ton of rust caused by salt. It's what killed off 99.99% of the classic Mustangs that were once very plentiful on the roads of Wisconsin. Looks like it's about 5 hours from me.
Omg!!!fastback heaven. Everyone of those should be pulled out of there. I can't even find a fastback in junkyards here in north iowa. I think I might have to roadtrip
@@resurrectionauto5714 I own a 65 mustang convertible and it is sad that these cars are so expensive that a regular guy can no longer afford to restore and enjoy these classic cars. Instead they would rather have them waste away in a field.
Did you find out if they sell completes? I'd like to pick a few up. Looks like they'd be difficult to get them out of there unless they have a method of getting them onto a flatbed trailer

Great video, at 15:07 thunderbird tail lights? , take a look at the vin our your next trip there, cant be a Shelby- no way
I’d have to go check vin like you said, but I’m pretty sure it’s at Shelby

All the comments on them not being any good, Pole barn Garage could get most of them running
Thanks for the video, we were going to head to Cooley's for fastback M2 parts but now going to Baxsters!
Oh yeah! Baxter has the Mustang heaven!! Let me know how it is. Havent been out there since last year. Want to go back out and do another video!
What treasures lie around here. Wuau!

No it wasn’t descywhere
I was thinking it would be cool to make a ford mustang fastback like an El Camino
Even though allot of them are gone…. Checking some vins there might be quite a few rare ones that someone would build.
That’s Absolutely incredible Wow! 👍👀👍… Thanks😎
Were is this ppace 😊
are u going to buy one from there and restore it?
It's their fault for bot selling whole. Parting out is the issue.
how much would a whole car cost ? or do they sell whole cars ?
Not sure. Never got a price out of them
Where this located , thanks

Is that a real shelby?
Yes

When I was there, they said they do. Best to contact them and arrange something. Their contact info is in the description
Did they mention maybe the average price a whole car would sell for $$$$
Negative. I assume it would depend on the car/parts wanted. I never got a price on anything from them. Baxters in Shell Lake WI
You are only interested in making money on your youtube channel.SAD
Link to their contact is in the description as always. Thanks for watching
