Going to the junkyard is always an adventure, you never know what you may find! I definitely struck gold once again with this junkyard score! Finding a Nissan 240sx s13 these days is hard enough, but to find yet another complete, stock, and manual abandoned S13 240sx hatch is insane!

I need that driver's window from that Chevy Monza
The White Wagon is a Pinto Wagon, 100% Real
Definitely should have grabbed the window switches and the trim from s13. The module too.
Ford Pinto wagon i think the blue interior car was
Ford Pinto wagon i think that blue interior car is
Honestly i think the junkyard videos are some of my fav and idk why, it's sad but also kinda cool to keep some of the cars alive in spirit through using their parts
its like watching someone go on a easter egg hunt but for for people who like cars.
X2
It reminds me of my youth. Uncle had a salvage yard. Crush days were some of my favorite. Now its kinda sad to see cars end up in places like this.
I love the junkyard runs, or wreckers as we call them here in Australia 😂 You guys are so lucky with the quality car selection you have in the self serve yards. Jdm classics like these very rarely make it to our self serve wrecking yards these days. People sell them for crazy figures, of wreck them and sell the parts for crazy money 😂🙃 Keep killing it dude, absolutely hooked on your channel since I discovered it a couple of weeks back!! They have been really helpful for one of my builds (Datsun 120y or b210 for you guys) I'm putting a ka24det in it, and the ka aren't so common here and we only got them in Nissan Navara's from 99-02. But SR'S & CA'S are so expensive here now and has been done so much so I decided to go with the ka for something different and I hear they are stronger and lighter than the sr! Love the skate clips to 🤘
i know why you like them
how that 240 was still able to stand on its wheels without caving in on itself amazes me
Literally what I was thinking
Non rusty roof perhaps 😂
For real, I'm honestly questioning how the rear subframe didn't fall out 😅
@@PrizzaMike by the looks of the powersteering reservoir that is a hicas car they have LSD diff!
@@kenpartytix it is indeed a hicas car! Peep the rear subframe shot!
The fact the interior light came on inside the mini cooper sitting in the junkyard is crazy
It’s crazy to think people are still finding abandoned or stock 240’s like this, you’d think they would all be found by now!
Right!
At 4:19, that appears to be a 1978? Ford Pinto Wagon, neat little wagon for sure. Also that Lincoln at the 23:00 mark, the trunk line was meant to mimic the older body styles in the 50s and 60s iirc where the spare tire was mounted externally on the rear bumper and covered with a paint matched plastic/fiberglass cover.
Yes, definitely a pinto wagon..unsure of the year. You're probably right on that as well
i thought it was a vega wagon at first
Yes, 77-78 Pinto
Its really interesting to see a typical American breakers yard. My local ones in the uk are usually organised by brand of vehicles but most of them are the same sort of vehicles usually spotted at scrap but you do find some gems but theyre usually long gone or a shell
and most UK breakers yard you can't walk around them like you used to
They’re like that out here in the us just not all of them.
i love Junkyard Videos
Hey Mike! So the "weird thing" you mentioned on the Neon about the windows, was pretty common in Europe, or at least that's what I remember. Power windows on all four doors was mostly an extra, and you had to pay for it if you wanted it. Most people actually didn't care, because on most cases no one was going to sit back there anyways.
Same with Australia (though tbf most of the cars we got were basically the same as EU models), wasn't *common* by any means but I've seen a fair few.
Feel like it was a common thing in EU on 80's-90's cars, read somewhere that some base models in USA had much better options than base models in EU
Can confirm Europe has this on quite recent cars even, we have an '08 Golf and that has power upfront and crank in the rear. Such a weird thing.
Even high end cars. I have a well equipped 325 TDS E36 that still has crank windows in the rear
@@kyliandc9276 I mean it's still not a luxury model, so it makes sense kinda, plus it's old
22:20 320 cdi is one of the best engines mercedes has ever made, bullet proof and really easy to make power on those. Really common here in finland, very "rare" in america to see one tuned atleast
I enjoy these junkyard trip videos and also the last video which you explain how you would go about wiring a KA24 from a 240SX into a 300ZX car (it was the first time I've seen anyone did a good explanation about this that was simple to comprehend). Thanks for the educational entertainment!!
4:20 That would be a Ford Pinto wagon
perfect way to start the weekend with a new mikey vid! incredible as always
Great vid as usual my man!! Love your vibe!
The one thing that used to really annoy me was the condition that others would leave vehicles in when stripping them in the yards. I used to leave everything in good order or even try to save the vehicles from further damage. I don't understand the mentality of other yard users that will ruin an item because they don't need it and prevent others that do need it from getting it.
They should allow us to go in and save those that are worth saving and not let them be destroyed or ruined by erosion and such, as well as save those cars that are worth saving from being sent to the crusher, some deserve another chance in life by fixing some of those parts that are broken and damage, maybe I watch too many Custom car shows, but that's me
4:00 As a person whose family has had multiple Mazda 626s, this just makes me so sad... Its in absolute mint condition, no rust or anything, that is so rare. And that blue interior???!! So beautiful. What an absolute waste of a great car. And i think those are very rare there in the states, considering that they are already pretty rare here, in europe. Most of them go to waste because of rust. If there is any way possible, then someone needs to save it from beeing scrapped. Its just in too great of shape to be scrapped.
Let’s go mike!! Almost to that 100k subs!! Keep up the good work love your vid’s man!
Bro i literally love all ur videos ur so humble and seem like a real cool dude. I like how u explain things very thourghly! Hope one day i run into u!😮
Mike is always getting the best and most relevant sponsors
love the videos bro can't wait to see you drifting
Hands down fav content, even watched the sponsored section and i always skip those, just shows how much effort mike puts into making actually entertaining content ♥️🫡
They always said the dodge neon windows were manual in the back because they only role down a quarter of the way anyway do to the child safety things. Plus obviously it was a way for dodge to save money on wiring. We currently have a 02 neon sxt 5 speed like that. It's at 281,000 miles right now and still getting us every where we need to go🤞. Its the highest milage ive personally seen on a vehicle myself. Another great junkyard video man👍
something so soothing about watching you just talk about cool rusty cars for 30 minutes
U pulled the engine😱😱😱🔥 U slick lil devil u… Always keep us looking forward to the next video💪🏾💪🏾
Absolutely love your videos. Me and my friend Jim always wait and msg each over as soon as there’s a new one. Much love from the uk!
love the videos keep the amazing work up Mike love it
@prizzamike you saved me fr I was in a dark place now when I feel alone I watch your videos and old videos on repeat ❤
Keep your head up homie! There's light at the end of the tunnel! Plus you neverknow what you'll find while in the tunnel 👀
@@PrizzaMike thank you so much this means the world much love bro❤️
always genuinely look forward to whatever you post, thank you 🫶
I've never been so offended by a "leaving my tools in a car no one is going to look at" lmaoooo. Mazda 3s are fun in the backroads and unsuspecting af, especially the 2.5l cars and the speed3s
I’ve owned a Mini and I know he barely glanced at the speedometer @3:26 and he called it a clock but it made me chuckle, love these junkyard videos keep up the great work
I knew it was a speedo haha, just thought it'd be funny to call it a clock 😅
I'd love to find an S13 in that shape to strip out and use some parts like the KA wheels and front suspension in my 1980 Datsun 510 seeing as those parts are a direct swap into my car
Got recommended one of your junkyard vids 2 weeks ago and have been hooked since! New sub earned.
Thanks for giving me a chance! 🤘🔥
Yep those top dash vents are the most brittle thing I've ever held one wrong move and snap...
Love this mans videos
Love the junkyard vids!
About the Neon power windows... in the early 2000's here in brazil it was common to have front power windows and rear crank windows, some said it was for safety concerns, regarding small children to have a hard time trying to open it, so it was safer, I dunno... Being a 90's children, I remember they sucked to open at that time xD
Love your junkyard videos 👍
love the videos brother been hear since 16k and that car with the roll windows i had a hyundai elanta an 09 same thing power in the front manual in the back was so weird
I have a Mercedes E320 wagon myself - 22:05 :D It is waay rustier (rust holes everywhere) but runs very nicely, used only on winter track And 22:36 front electric window regulator, rear crank is the same thing as my daily driver which is Audi A4 B7 Avant
That station wagon is a 74' Ford Pinto . She looks pretty good ! Love to have the 51' and 56' Buicks sedans !
great vid and as always… #roadto100k!!!🎉🎉❤❤
3:19 did you notice that mini still had battery in it?
@05:31, bro long as mounting tabs are good. that dash looks mint, surprisingly. even the damn defrost vent isnt peeling up and all baconned. bro, that dash is a keeper for sure!!!!
A cabriolet celica near next to the Z. Wow that's a rare sight actually. Nice vid!
I need those vents and also the little plastic screws/clips that hold the door skuff pad on.
Mike I bet the sponsor was absolutely thrilled with that bit you just did at the skatepark :D Gimme 2 of those!
Love these videos that spoiler on the corolla looks like a roof spoiler of a hatch
Let's get this guy to 100k!!!!
That Lincoln that you saw there with the big doors is the equivalent of the Lexus SC300 cannot be more true that is a 1993 to 1996 Lincoln Mark 8, they are beautiful cars and dream to own They Ride nice and have a lot of power the motor that was in these cars would later be put into the mustang cobras! They are RWD on airbags and usually get converted to coil springs when the airbag system fails likely why that cards in that yard but apart from that they were very solid and reliable, I drove mine 250,000 miles from 60k miles, sold it to a collector and am looking for another, a shame that one ended up there probably over something minor, mine was the same color!
If you ever want to get into American luxury boats/ muscle, the 1993-1998 Lincoln MKVIII is the way to go, they are excellent cars and come with 280hp from the factory, 4 speed autos that you can manual swap with a trans from a mustang, plus 22+mpg on the high way, they are efficient V8's
Yep it was a mk3 vw cabrio
bro I love these videos
Cool vid new sub from the uk gonna work my way through your vids
Love the salvage yard videos
I usually disagree with most cars being put in in these junkyards but that 240sx was actually unrepairable with very very little usable parts. Wow
that mini got hit pretty hard the whole back window was a little shifted it looked and the door was tweaked. Love your videos btw as I love doing some automotive archaeology as well!
when u got in the mini cooper the dome loght went on, car still getting power. it probably still runs lol
That Ole 90s lincoln mark are amazing cars 🤌🏼 I would know I have a 98 lincoln mk 8 which I am restoring! Black paint, black interior love it ❤
I've got an 89 240 in the UK, I could do with a centre tail light with the 240 logo and window switches on driver side
Maybe you can get the spray can "rhino liner" and put on a few coats on the back side of the dash vents to (hopefully) strengthen them.
The white wagon with a blue interior is a Pinto wagon... that is hella clean for being up north btw
24:02 just get a pair of rain boots specifically for the junk yard trips
4:20 i have one of these wagons i got it from my grandad but mine is a Pontiac Sunbird Sport. not running right now but im working on it
The white wagon at the beginning with the blue interior looks like a chevy vegga wagon. Fun little cars that you can build into race cars
Lets gooo for 100k 🎉
That poor hatch 😫😫 Edit: i love the little surprises you’ve been doing in the outros 😂 SECOND KA ACQUIRED 🙌🏻
4:38 thats a 78 Ford Pinto wagon! super rare!
When I was in the Army 10 years ago, there was a Z32 shell way out on white sands missile range in New Mexico. I was big into those cars then so it was bizarre to see one out there. It was in the middle of nowhere
oh btw if its abs its probably a hicas rear with a rare diff cover that holds more fluid and cools better. Id definitely grab that motor set from it, ka trans sell decent and the drivetrain is probably the second to last savalable part left.
At 4:35 thats a Ford Pinto Wagon, they were famous for blowing up if you get rear ended because the gas tank was in the rear of the car.
My 2000 Opel Omega C also has automatic windows in the front and crank in the back
4:37 Thats a ford pinto wagon/estate
Mini cooper is made by bmw so ive heard a cpl yrs back. Front power and rear crank nvr seen that b4😅.
U do the best and more interesting then allot of other yt ppl and u do best posting for me at 2:32AM
I saw a stock af soft top 240sx parked outside of Hardee's where I live. And it was MINT. I'm from Troy MO a small hick town, you never see S chassis's it was a treat lol
i love these videos sm
4:39 is a chevy vega station wagon
You did an excellent job with that ad👍
Thanks homie 🙏
That's actually smart that the Fiero's headlights move with the hood, I'm assuming its so if anything did go wrong and the hood was off by a little it wouldn't clip the headlight and bend the hood.
I cry man ..
Best ad break I've watched in a while.
🙏🤘
Mike that white wagon is a pinto wagon 👍🏼😊🤙🏽
Junk yard vids are just awesome, I loved goin to them when I had to get parts for my mx73, jeep, Tahoe and 240. Btw I didn’t know usin 240’s came with hicas rears. Was that an option on shark noses, I had a pig nose coupe and both the stock and r32gts-t rears I had on it had no hicas
love junkyard videos
The mini Cooper still have the battery in it the dome light was on I reckon it would have started up
I have a Mini Cooper S and love it. Surprised the blue car was junked for so little damage. The S is a four cylinder turbo and it will fly. That was not a clock. That is speedometer.
4:19 that was a ford pinto wagon
I like that mazda 626 seats 💺
4:14 that was my first car, same colour and everything
You killed th ad mike!
That 240sx looks like it was stored at the bottom of a lake for a few years. Wouldn't risk using a flood car harness.
My first car was a 240. Third car was an 84 300zx. God i miss the 300zx. Nothing better than the feeling on the rear end dropping down when you put it in drive. My 240 looked almost new however it never ran unfortunately. I bought it as a teen from a guy who had the motor rebuilt before going on a road trip. It died about 50 miles into the trip. I spent so much time making it look good sitting in it listening to the tunes but with a single mom no male influence and knowing nothing about cars at the time it just sat there looking "pretty". I wish i could have just got it running good once to see how it drove.
7:10 YOOOO I DID NOT SEE THAT COMIN
Love the “junk” yard vids :);)
Looking at how that car is rusting from the bottom up, it either sat outside during winters, or it was flooded, which is the reason im mostly inclined to believe looking at how new the oil looks, probably someone tried to mess with it
That's amazing
Sports pac, power pac 240.... Nice.
Grab the vlsd and rack and pinon, hicas models had faster turn ratios
That’s a Chevy Vega wagon, pretty sick! Super popular for drag racing
The white wagon was a Ford Pinto. Excellent car for a V8 swap.
That White station wagon is a Ford pinto the car famous for exploding when rear ended
