I'm a michigander I love going through the junkyards I'm 58 years old I was 16 when I worked at a junkyard work there for 2 years now I go and just wander love looking at all the old cars wish I could have been with you guys keep up the great content
Thank you! Definitely a fun adventure hope to do more of these! Fortunately this gentleman is a real close friend of mine too! Lots of good stuff to see! Thanks for tuning in!
New guy here. I'm 43 in Toledo Ohio and I recognize everything going on in this video, the cars the place, Telegraph road, everything, Alot of familiarities going on here. Maybe because I spent alot of time on Michigan. 🤷🏽♂️ idk!! 😂 cheers bros
Going to have to check that place out, I know right where it is, exit 202 on 75. Have three Mark llls, might be some usable parts on that one. And they were available with 8 track players.
Funny. I was at Swain's yard up in Bellaire last Friday taking photos and came across one of those Volvo 1800s like that. I didn't know what it was at first either. There are a lot of real old trucks up there at that yard! Plus a lot of OLD tractors too. I would build a car hauler out of that International. That cab looks to be in nice shape. Just drop it on a 1 ton chassis. The Camaro with the big Z28 on the spoiler would be a 1974. I would love to get in there and shoot some photos!
"Jake and the Fat man" comes to mind with the Lincoln. An old TV program from the 70's & 80's save the Lincoln esp. being the two door version.that type of Lincoln was the star of that show for me.
A buddy of mine crashed his 71 Pinto at Forest Lake in 1976. It was a hopped up beater with a 6 pt cage, 4 speed, aftermarket wheels and tires. We were flying thru the fire trails and hit a tree. Front end damage was extensive and I think we left the cool Pinto at this junkyard. I remember it was near Alger and right off the freeway. Used to have a large semi trailer that someone sprayed painted "PARTY ZOON" on the side of it. We cracked up at the spelling. We are from the Detroit area and went back the next summer to see if the Pinto was still there. Nope. The crusher was there and no sign of the Pinto. ☹
The Plymouth wagon your friend was standing on is probably a 66-67 Satellite. It was the same as the Dodge Coronet of the same vintage except for the front sheet metal. My parents had a 67 Coronet wagon with the same rear glass crank handle.
I didnt know where that was I was hoping for a Michigan set of directions lol like "over by grand Rapids detroit flint " or my favorite Michigan directions "it's up north" lol
It's a mid '50s Buick with a straight 8 and a power glide. Mid '60s Plymouth Fury Wagon. '76 Gran Torino. The plane looks like a late '50s early '60s Moony.
Nice walk though guys . What side of the hand is this yard on ? Looking for short square body k10 roller , and elcamino body . if ya get what I’m thinking .
I think the best is the IH and the Buick as for the Monty I had a 1970 with factory 4 speed and a 1972 Grand Prix they were great cars when I was young
@@Bendinwrenches24 when I was young in the sixties you could walk through any salvage yard looking for parts the one had a cobra that kept catching fire so they crushed it but they were the good old days

The car in the air at 3 min mark I believe is a Chevy Vega.
Thanks! We were wondering she's pretty rough!
@@Bendinwrenches24 Not just any Vega, a Cosworth Vega.

At 12:17, Looks like a 67 Ford Fairlane. That's a Ford crest on the steering wheel center.
Right on thanks! That one had us stumped. Thanks for watching.
@Bendinwrenches24 you're welcome, fun video!
Yep a 67 because the steering wheel. All 67 ford products used that style of wheel.
Going to have to check that place out, I know right where it is, exit 202 on 75. Have three Mark llls, might be some usable parts on that one. And they were available with 8 track players.
Great place! Worth a visit!
Drive right past the place never knew it was there 😊
The actual chrome trim on the 70’s and earlier cars was neat to see. Style.
Agreed 💯! Could only imagine growing up in that era!
Drive by that place almost every weekend on the way up to the cottage never realized it was such a treasure
There are definitely some hidden gems not seen from the highway!

The Plymouth wagon your friend was standing on is probably a 66-67 Satellite. It was the same as the Dodge Coronet of the same vintage except for the front sheet metal. My parents had a 67 Coronet wagon with the same rear glass crank handle.
Very cool thanks for the info we were stumped on that one! I was surprised the window actually worked after all these years!
Nice tour of Wolvie's yard, Brian! I need to get back up there some time. Looking forward to that International rat ride project.
You should! Thanks dude!

Right on! Thanks for the help!
All Cobras were five speed and had a different intake manifold. That's an automatic '94-'95 GT convertible with Cobra snakes and a '96-'98 Cobra hood.
Good to know! I'll let my buddy know! For parts sake.

Your GRANDPA was born in 48?! If you got grey in your beard, you must not be too much younger than me (turned 45 yesterday) and my dad was born in 53.

I have been to that yard a few times just 30 to 40 minutes from my home.
Heck yeah we love those guys!
TransAm is a 79, the only year they used the olds 403. Grand Prix is a 65. The Buick looks like a 53, has a straight 8 and dynaflow automatic
Right on thanks! Appreciate ya tuning in!
Your first car ID question was a Vega, and the second you thought was a dodge is a 68 Ford Fairlane.
Thanks we we're wondering! Don't see many of those around!
I have a friend who to this day gets upset when he thinks about the sandstone colored Fiero he sold in 2008.
Right on! We're putting one together for a friend currently! There definitely unique!
That Buick sure looks identical to the 54 we had in our junkyard and it had a V8 it was the small nailhead a 322 or something like that
Also had the Dyna flow semi automatic transmission
Also 403 Olds in the TA and they were good swaps for the g body cutlasses with a little know how
The Plymouth made a suburban and a trail duster back then
Makes sense! A buddy of mine has a 84 Cutlass with a 403 swap!
Gran torino elite
Right on! Thanks for tuning in!
