The Horror: Monster-Truck Victims In The Junkayrd

To Z man , i know this but the only cars that should be crushed or ran over by a monster truck are cars that have been gutted so that people that restore cars can buy the parts. whats wrong with watching the body being crushed , after knowing that so many cars were saved. , i just dont like it when good cars are wrecked for “FUN” who agrees!

no no no no……….love old car………love car forever lor…

if your a car guy its sad to see any cars end up like that evan if they are pos lol its bad to see cars end up like that

Jen Dunnaway,

you are a bitch.

you are crying mad about 7 crushed pos cars.

WHO GIVES A HOOT

Auuuggg! They smashed cheech and chong’s “roach” coach. That’s gay!

Brayden sauve you are not thinking. It takes a lot of parts from the junkyard for your average person to restore a car. My brother and I have just finished off his mustang, and I believe we have 11 different car’s parts on the one stang. So are you saying we should purchase new parts from a manufacturer? If that was what everyone had to do, there would be very few restored cars on the road.

Sad to see the van pics for me… parts aren’t as available as before. But oh well. I trust the salvage yard picked vehicles that were already picked over. As a general rule when shopping in a salvage yard… if the vehicle has collision damage, the engine is usually good, otherwise a vehicle with a clean body likely had the engine die a miserable death. Maybe Jen, the publicity from the truck show brought new customers to the yard and more people are restoring their rides with these parts… SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BONEYARDS!

Are you serious? A bunch of junk cars that were set for the crusher being crushed – how is that a shame? Cost of the ticket is low because the junk yards provide the cars free and don’t have to pay to have the crushed. Subarus being saved? Yeah they are a quality car- LAMO. Now I have a reason not to return to this site. What next please don’t change flat tires, it’s bad for their souls! What a joke.

the only things taken from cars and vans is glass, batteries, gas tanks and fluids that prove hazardous or unsafe to both enviroment and/or person(s). motors for the most part need to stay in cars otherwise they with flatten and the show is a snooze.

Junk yards make me and any other car guy want to kill the owner i hate it when cars get wrecked or crushed!! BULL S***!! Remember dont crush em, restore em!!

It just makes me Imagine what It would be like if they let a Monster truck loose In A salvage Yard……….

Who would I call to set that up ………….Hrmmmmmm….

They keep the engines in the cars so they don’t flatten right away when the first truck hits them. It’s actually for the best if the cars hold up well during the show, since the trucks can get more air off of them that way.

As to the cost, the promoter usually gets the cars free, and the junkyard gets a plug during the show. Usually, those cars are headed for the crusher regardless so they’re really just getting a jump on the process…that, and it’s worth the diesel to transport them to the arena and back to get some cheap advertising in front of 40,000 folks.

poor subaru’s…no subaru should be killed off like that

I guess everything has a purpose? What does a monster truck show ticket cost? Seems like the cost for all that waste would be high.

wouldnt it be easier and saVE money if they took the engines out be4 placing them on a monster truck field?

your blog provides good info on cars.

Hehe that is pretty cool to see. I have always wondered what happened to these cars after the show. I’m surprised they still have their engines in-tact. I always thought the cars would be gutted before hand of the engines, interior etc to allow for a greater impact. Good post!
