Mopars in Mississippi: (Video) Cuda, Challenger, Road Runner, GTX, Charger among huge hoard

B5 Blue Charger with a luggage rack is complete but rusting among hundreds of cars in the backwoods of Mississippi.

Graveyard of Mopars. Bubba, a collector of hundreds of cars from the 1930s-1970s, invited Junkyard Life on a tour of his place in Mississippi. We jumped at the chance because we wanted to see if he did indeed have 600 cars. Yes, he does! And we were also amazed to find dozens of Mopar muscle cars. 
  Bubba owns some of the finest, restored cars you will ever see – all covered and protected from the elements, but we were more interested in the field of dreams behind his garage. We wanted to see the rusty junk. Let’s go!


Plymouth Barracudas, GTXs, and Road Runners. Dodge Chargers, Challengers, and Coronets. All with their fair share of patina. Toss in a few vintage Jeep CJs, a Travco and this was a fantastic trip. We trudged through and over briars, and barb wire to gander at the hundreds of would-be dream cars and trucks.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure

Some may think Bubba is plum crazy for leaving these cars outside but he has been collecting them for many years. Bubba bought them when they were dirt cheap and/or on their way to the crusher after being wrecked. This man knows his cars and has saved many from certain demise. 
  Bubba has no intentions of selling what he has worked hard collecting, so don’t ask

We thank him for keeping our junkyard dreams alive! More from our adventure to follow soon.
