Overgrown Maryland Junkyard Filled With Hot Rod Gold

On our way home from picking up the 1932 Ford parts in South Carolina, we remembered we had a lead on some parts in Southern Maryland. It was far enough south that it was tough for us to make the trip from home, but we would be driving extremely close by that it would be foolish not to stop. Thankfully the gentleman we were visiting was available for us to stop by and do some digging! We found all kinds of great parts hidden about the property, including a Cadillac Flathead with Edmunds finned heads!! With cars and parts scattered in every direction Matt and Mike spend the day digging!!

That graveyard reminds me of the junk yards I crawled through as a teen. Whatever came in was dropped in the nearest empty spot and left to the weeds.

@gkl5999 Жыл бұрын

My uncle owned a junk yard outside of Hampstead, MD. I played in that yard with my cousins for years, used a Studebaker golden hawk hood for a sled when there was snow on his hill. I built my first car there, a 49 Nash, that Studebaker engine (352) and trans, ford rear, the parts list was extensive. Wish he was alive today, he would be a millionaire out of all that old iron!

You walked by a really big chunk of money 💰💰💰. There is a bad that was somewhere between 10 and 14 ft long and it was a pickup truck bed on the truck yet. Now these have always had a small collectors market but they pay well for them.. now with people doing things with cabovers and trucks to tons and bigger, the beds fit!! I think it's at 15 minutes and 10 seconds. You just kind of paying over it as you walk past it is on your left hand side. If I wasn't a half a country away I would have let you know after I made the deal and picked it up and said thank you. So just FYI. There it is thank you for making the videos.
