We visited the world's largest junkyard - Turner's Auto Wrecking in Fresno, California. We only had 3 hours to tour over 100 acres of classic car heaven. We can't wait to go back!
See parts that you need? Call up Turner's and they will get you sorted! Jerry has been in business for over 65 years and is a wealth of knowledge.

When you were raise with a Father who was always yelling and cursing as well as making you no more than a piece of crap he could bully around, It is extremely hard to loosen up with that type of people. I had Employee's way back in the 60's who are still my friends. My whole family was murdered by a person who treated his family and treated his family the same way but I put up with him because of his six children. It cost me my 30 year old wife and two daughters 12 and 13. Now how loose do you want me to be?

the yellow car in the tree was a ford pinto, the one car you thought was a converted 4 wheel drive was an original late 60s caddy eldo front wheel drive only thanks so much for the tour

I wasn't sure if it was the ford pinto or the mercury bobcat...

Young lady has great taste. '57 Roadmaster rear windows ARE trick. A few minutes later she's astride a '53 John Deere model 60. Good looking and great taste in iron, she's a keeper all right. If she dabbed a little diesel behind each ear, I'd follow her anywhere. Thanks for the tour, who doesnt love a good wrecking yard? Best regards from Indiana.

I remember a hugh junkyard I visited in nj in 1978. The cars from the 50s were plentiful and still had decent paint and chrome,while the cars of the 30s and 40s were the ones that were rusty and picked clean. Time marches on!

That's not an AWD conversion! It's a Cadillac Eldorado, which were all front wheel drive (FWD). The 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado was GM'S first FWD car, followed by it's cousin the 1967 Cad Eldorado. Dang some of those Corvairs looked very solid! Would love to see this place!! The Chev Corvairs, Cadillacs and ambulances are exciting! Was good to see some of the cars are truly about as parted-out as they could be! Thanks for sharing the video on this jewel!

That old Dodge work wagon is awesome and well equipped for snagging the parts that you need! Hopefully it doesn't disappear if the poor guy passes away, I hope that they have family to carry on the business! I'm going to say that we used to have a few 100+ acres of salvage yards and I will say that we had at least two dozen in the Western Pennsylvania area and we are now down to one and he is 73 and wants to hang it up because no one wants to work for the man. Shame that they are disappearing at a alarming rate in the east coast or should I say the North Eastern states.
