Million Dollar Junkyard full of classic cars for sale in Alabama! This small town family junkyard closed in 1979 in north Alabama. Hundreds of classic cars from the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s were collected by the Brooks family as a hobby/family junkyard. Initially, the junkyard was a joint venture by two brothers. The family has decided to sell off the cars. It was not an easy decision. For years they were unable to call the recycler to scrap out the place because the cars have too many memories. The day they never thought would come is here. All the cars and trucks, muscle cars, rare wagons, and convertibles must go!

DETAILS: CARS ONLY, NOT LAND
If you decide to buy or make an offer, there is one catch. The $1M buys just the cars. You will have six months to move them out. After six months a rental fee will be charged to the buyer if all cars not removed. Also, seller says that you may not run a business out of the property. Using the property as a car lot to sell off the vintage vehicles is not an option.
Buy them all, move them and do what you want. The seller knows it will be an involved process. Trees will have to be cut down to avoid damaging the cars during removal. Final negotiations will be worked out with Frank who is featured in the video. Send me an email with your contact info.

Great video, Jody! I had a blast watching this. Frank's enthusiasm is nice, and his offer is fair, including the 6 month time frame and then potentially charging someone rent. As a lifelong junkyard car enthusiast, I always want cars to find good homes, but I fear that possibly the state of the cars with the trees growing through and around them might make them too far gone as complete cars. The frames of many of these are likely past any salvage. Parting them out takes more time and agonizes the difficult nature of selling them to begin with, but over the course of a few years' span, perhaps that would be the best route. I love Studebakers, but for example, on another car enthusiast side that I read, recently a 1966 Studebaker in excellent shape, which is ultra rare (last year of production), only went for $1500 at an auction. If there would be more big dollar cars (ie: Mopars, muscle cars, etc), it would entice someone to buy it as a long and make it worthwhile to take as a package deal to remove all the cars. Many of these were also clearly of the basic transportation variety (four doors, six cylinder, etc), which makes it difficult to sell as a package.
