World's oldest and largest classic car junkyard is 34-acre compound in Georgia

The world’s oldest and largest classic car junkyard, Old Car City, resides in Georgia, United States, on a huge 34-acre site.

Located in the North Georgia forest, this remarkable location was shown off on YouTube by Dolloff Antiques Garage, and it’s full of a huge array of rusty, classic American cars.

There are more than 4,000 vehicles at this site, which is actually described as an open-air museum, such is the vastness of its location.

In fact, the junkyard is so large that it can take several hours to walk through it all.

The world’s oldest and largest junkyard

A sign at the location just before arriving simply states that it’s ‘The world’s oldest junkyard.’

This is Old Car City, an open-air museum that sits on 34 acres of forest land, hiding many American classic cars.

The open-air museum is home to 4,000 scrapped vehicles, some of which date back as far as the 1930s.

Nature has taken hold, and there is even a full nature trail that takes hours to walk.

Admission is $30 per person, and it’s not an easy location to navigate.

There are at least six miles of nature trails at Old Car City, and everything from muscle cars to Ford pickup trucks is stored there for you to view.

The YouTuber who visited even found a stunning Lincoln Mark V parked under the trees.

The yard has been around since the 1930s

Rewinding, the story of this junkyard began in 1931, when the Lewis family opened a general store.

Eventually, after World War II, they switched to being a salvage business, with the store becoming a yard.

Some decades were more fruitful than others, with around 40 cars standing at times during the 1970s.

Nowadays, the classic car collection is vast.

Current owner Dean ‘Mayor’ Lewis decided to turn the junkyard into a museum as business started to drop.

More and more cars were added to the collection until it had grown into what we see today.

Lewis even had to buy more land just to store the vast collection of cars.

Some on the internet are not sure if it’s a great idea, given how many of the junkers could be restored.

But others found it fascinating, and visiting Old Car City is certainly an experience you would never forget.
