45 minutes outside Atlanta, a man has collected over 4,000 classic cars. I don’t know how I feel about this. On one hand it has taken a good part of his life to amass, and there’s no doubt some of them would of been scrapped if it wasn’t for him. On the other hand they are just sitting outside deteriorating. Nothing and I mean NOTHING is for sale. Not even a hubcap. Ladies and Gentlemen allow me to introduce “Old Car City”

They are still being scrapped only in a slower way. People who would rather see a car disintegrate in to a pile of red dust than sell are not collectors they’re hoarders.

No sound here, but he might have just temporarily saved them from the scrapyard. When the owner goes to the big hoarder haven in the sky, most of these are off to the crusher. Wasteful, silly.

If I remember correctly, this place was a junkyard, but the owner eventually decided that it was more profitable to let people tour the area than scrap what was there.

It’s all 40s -50s stuff. most if not all would be junk anyway by now.

now late 60s early 70s stuff pisses me off.

Where are all the guys who are presumably collecting 80s and 90s cars now?

They are out there. You can find a lot of minty 80's and 90's cars in SoCal.

I saved the Cougar from that fate. Not from a collector/hoarder, but if the guy hadn’t sold it to me, he was going to store it in a field at a friend’s house because his HOA was given him crap about too many cars.
