Finding Project Cars in a Junkyard
I can't believe how many rust free and straight project cars were found in this junkyard. A modern Porsche Roadster catches me off gauge, along with the Mazda RX8 with a 13b still in it.
Do you feel as tho the Ford Probe was an attempt to combat the market with the 240sx?
After coming across a mint BMW E36 sedan in the yard, I feel the need to own one now.. The Nissan Z Z31 is becoming a rarity. Unfortunately this junkyard had many 300zx to pull parts from.
I venture deeper into the yard and stumble across some very interesting itemS...

The beemer wheels look like BBS alloys.
You're funny dude
I got a 350z for 3500
It is hard to see all those cars just rotting away cas of one reason or another, always a good thing to keep in mind, although a little sad, "The junk adventures" could name the series after that if you haven't already, good luck with the build Mike
I agree man, always sad to see potential thrown away :/
Those cars once has a good owner taking care of them and one day it just landed on this landfill kinda makes me wanted to rescue all of them but we know we can't save alot of them though. It just sad too see those cars just rotten...
They were used abused and thrown out as all cheap cars are especially sports cars and if you've ever purchased a project car you very well know the hardest part of it is fixing the mess the last guy made
I can't wait I'm totally excited. Junk yards are usually a $2 classroom. I was told when I was young that a junkyard is a place to learn. It's kinda crazy to see other states that have tons of rust when cars here in Oregon get scrapped because they are unwanted projects.
the junkyard videos are always fun but I just wanted to say that it's great to see Franzy pop up in the vlogs again:) happy for you two!
As someone who currently works on trash trucks I love hearing your shock about how big parts on large trucks are. Probably coolest yard yet.
I agree! This yard was awesome! Just wait for part 2 tho!
@PrizzaMike can you give the name of the yard on the next video, I'd love to go to this one, seems pretty cool!
i’m scared to see what classic cars that have been left behind. you should definitely keep going to junkyards they’re very interesting to watch.
Your channel is really kicking off and I think its your attitude and chill style. I like that your not out trying to tear up the junkyard but if your ever looking for parts to sell the 1st gen D21 and WD21 parts are getting way expensive. Yes you should put that VG into your work truck
I understand dude. The fact that there's no music in your videos it's a whole different mood. Keep this shit up!!!
I like seeing you get excited about manual cars 😂
The two door Nissan Sentra looked just like my first car. Those were actually pretty good the ser trim came with sr20 good car definitely brought back some memories seeing one
1962 to 1952 with the truck and love to see you uploading and bringing us blessed content keep up the good work man wish for the best
That 300ZX with the digital dash reminds me of the one I used to own back in the 90s. Nice ride but it constantly needed work and I couldn't keep up with it. The digital tach was more like a bar graph that went horizontal, and it also indicated intake manifold vacuum. The higher the bars went vertically, the more the engine was being worked. It was neat, when it worked.
Always a great start to the day when mike posts first thing in the morning
I wish this video just continued on forever. It kept getting more and more interesting. Definitely made my day better ✌️
Quick lesson... The E36 that was black was a 318 you don't want it. It's 4 cyl. And it's easier to actually find the 6 cyl... The Mitsubishi diamante is actually a cool little family race car. They had a turbo version and they actually have decent HP stock n/a. Also you missed 3 2j's 😅 also the 4 motion vws typically came big brake.
We are just gonna ignore the fact that the GS has bullet holes on the side?? 😂
😅
It's called weight reduction people!
That car was a participant of 24 hour ghetto Lemans...
@@PrizzaMike hi
Thanks to putting the effort into this videos! It's always nice to see old stuff and I always learn something from your videos! Keep it up bro!!!
Thank you for the video, I'm still loving the junkyard adventures! So sad to see the Z31 though, that's my dream car 😭
A non runner especially an auto is cheap af there is three within 20 minutes of me they all look like given the amount of grime on them sitting for at least 20 years
As a second gen probe owner I can kinda see the resemblance of the 240 in it, especially with the wrap around rear windows. Personally I think it’s a good car by itself, fwd sucks but that puts it in the same class as the Integra and the prelude. Fun underrated car that is still really cheep to buy to this day.
What a way to start the morning! Mike posting a video with z31's in the thumbnail!
Thanks for the tour! I love seeing the old cars!
Love the junk yard videos.. can't wait to see the rear quarter go on the 240.. Will be paint video before you know it👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
seeing these videos makes me want to go the scrapyard s and see how many cars i can save , i love your videos they really keep me occupied and my mind off things
Alot of my local junk yards are closed down now a days, these videos I really love!
The chrome rx8 wheels are pretty rare and valuable I’d recommend picking them up
These cars need to be preserved they don't make these anymore. That's just history left to rot away. I hope no Chryslers were there. They deserve to be repaired and treated with love.
Dangit, now I wanna go to the junkyard again. I'm so excited for the classic section!!
I knew that was a tanning bed before you climbed in the truck, i have used so many in my life 🤣🤣
8:39 I’m perfectly fine with that! You’ve inspired me to go junkyard hunting!
feels like we are firends even tho idky ur vids help with motivation alot thanks mike glad i found ur youtube
Love the junk yard content 👌
Love watching your vids man, stay safe out there.
There's a z31 around where I live, and you really have me wanting to go see if I could get it. It would definitely be a fixer-upper, but I would like to save it before it ends up in a junkyard. Amazing video as always crazy to see how far everything has come. Always looking forward to the next one 🤙🤙🤙
Dude i love the gages on the 300zx’s so much, as well as the cluster, like you said
Random ATX PC power supply chilling in the seat 9:35 lmao
Love the content bro 👌 love these junkyard vids 😎
In the mid 1990s my brother in law was about 19 and had an excel he bought new. I was about 14-15 and drove many place and many times in that excel. It ran like a dream and was getting around 40+ mpg to the gallon.
love these junkyard videos❤❤
Watching this makes me want to do my own build !
I love going there this is one of the best yards I go to
Damn I'm watching this in my 4th gen Camaro, I need some of that stuff lol
Another good junkyard vid. Cool to see your lady taggin along in some capacity lol. Definitely looks like more fun then the solo missions.
I miss my Z! Had one in highschool, but it became a never ending money pit and regrettably I sold it. Years later now that I have a good career, I want another.
I used to own a 98 5 series like the two you found in this yard. Mine was a manual as well idk how rare it would be considered but it was a cool car. I had a auto del sol as well with almost 400,000 miles, at least the shell did, motor still ran perfect, transmission was good too. Miss that one a lot.
those bbs on the green bmw 740il ...😍😍 perfect spec for e36
I used to go to that junk yard with my dad before I moved a few county’s over. It’s crazy to see how much it hasn’t changed in 10 years lmao definitely next time your in Murfreesboro or Tennessee It’d be cool to meet you!
What's the name of the yard?
I can't believe someone scrapped a perfectly good looking 740il, these go for like 10 grand where I live
The diamanté was built just down the road from me here in Adelaide australia they are called a Magna here :) thanks for sharing all the cars with us :)
good yard to walk through , thanks for sharing :D that was a lot of mustangs and f bodies , lot of good parts scattered around . im curious to know if that was a sc300 or 400 and if it was a manual ? can keep a eye out for 2 door rav4s and nerf bars for a crv too ? :D
20:47 Those are the kind of trucks my Grandpa would tell stories of swapping engines in a couple hours
Junk yard videos are the vibe
YOOOO those T1 volkswagen Touaregs are absolute beasts, especially with the V8. They have a phenomenal 4wd and abs system, Ive off roaded the heck out of mine!!
I never knew they came with so many goodies! Haha
There are usually no less than like 10 Mustangs at one of the yards I go to up here in Michigan. Early Ford Probes were on the same platform as the Mazda MX-6.
As a mustang guy myself, its hard to see all those mustangs there, primairally the SN95s (1994-1998 is old, 1999-2004 is new edge). I'd love to have i believe's #21's mag rims, like the rims off of the bullitt car
Agreed bro, just too many crowds sindrome, jokes aside it is truly a pain to see all those mustangs there
Thanks for the awesome walk around.
When you say to your mum you want a 240sx and she says: We have a 240sx at home ~Ford Probe
💀😭
The focus you saw was an svt as far as i could see, so yes the manifold on it was for a turbo, the turbo was already snatched
Always good content 🤘🏽
Can't wait to watch this after I finish my homework :) love your videos
As a 3rd gen firebird owner thank you
love these junkyard videos
finally some z31s in a prizza mike video
Both The sc gs were sad too see I’ve also never seen that Mitsubishi before but what made me even more sad was too see those z31s just sitting there but atleast they have each other 😂 great video can’t wait for PT2 🤟🏻
Black Porshe convertible was awesome! You walked past a white Geo Metro convertible. I wanted one badly in the 1990s.
Need more boost! I’ve actually never seen lawnmowers or bikes at junkyards here. That’s kinda cool.
@10:00 Yep had one. 1991 same year as your looking at. Black manual 4 banger 2 door with tan interior. Ignition wire burned in two. Mechanic looked it over thought it was a faulty wire and replaced it. 3 days later car burned to the ground. Got so hot the there was a small pool of aluminum underneath it when they towed it away. The white crown vic @11:24, that's typically caused by sap. it's been sitting in a wooded area and sap has collected on it, and dried with dirt.
another 6 am banger
It's been a long time since I went on a treasure hunt in a yard. This was fun!
Lots of cool cars in that yard
damn those z31s, sad to see a car im obsessed with just sitting there like that :(
Fav series Fr fr
Worked on the z31s in 1987. Brockbank of Altrincham.
Never seen your channel before. Saw the headliner, instant subscribe
I live to see junkyard vids from mike 🤣
I would kill to have a old yota truck with a frame as clean as that
The Mitsubishi diamante was manufactured in Australia and exported to the US, it was a fantastic car to drive well balanced, excellent fuel economy. In Australia it was also available in a station wagon.
Z31s are the most underrated Z’s . Love those cars
The last time I saw a Hyundai Excel on the road driving was in the late 90s. The hatch was ultra rare, and the sedans were more common.
love this guy.....
Firebird/camaro taillights are another thing you need to look at- they run between 80-120 PER
Always love see junkyards , Always Great cars die ,sad . Thanks for the vídeo
that GS fender wasn't just dented, it had BULLET HOLES bro
For real lol Even on the windshield 😬👀
@@PrizzaMike also- it would be dope for you to get an e36. love your vids man.
That dodge Dakota was a camper pretty neat truck .great video
so many cars with potential !
And the cliff hanger 🙄🤣🤣
If you look at the seats in the rx8 the centers of the headrest area have engine rotor shaped cutouts There's actually alot of them all over the car
loving these vids... im up in canada so feel ya on the surprise of no rust lol, i wish i could find a parts car for my 88 Chrysler LeBaron hardtop coupe! been hunting for a motor
If you haven’t already go up to Minnesota. Go to French lake it’s a little place out in the middle of no where but the junk yard is massive
First video of the day liked before loaded everytime let's goooooo
This was a awesome video💯💯💯
I recently acquired a 1991 Ford Probe from my Grandma…I can’t wait to restore it to its Proper 240 roots!!!…lol

Breaks my heart when I see a golf MK4 in the yard☹️
I really like Vedio II like this bro can keep going
That 83’ Mazda B2000 pickup is a great find, plus the canopy on that must be super rare to find
My buddy has one with rotary and rx3 grill (his second identical build of a truck like that), I have 2 of the canopies lol
That focus that you said was straight out of 2000 is a 2001 Saleen focus which came stock 5 speed with a 2.0 i4 turbo
That 6-wheel Dakota was an RV at one point. Be super cool to put a truck bed on it!
I love watching your videos and i got 5 pieces of merch of yours Love from Switzerland 🇨🇭🔰
Much love 🙌🖤
I'm restoring a z31 300zx turbo like those. Such a shame to see those 2 there. Really rare now
Z31s are cool cars! Underrated, but I love mine! I have the turbo model, they are fun!
Man your yards have all good cars I can’t find a 2012 fit sport in the yards for the life of me around stl and I see fits in the background every video you post
