YouTuber Junkcar Willy explores the backroads and junkyards of Ohio and West Virginia and surrounding areas hunting for antique automotive gems and honey holes of project an part vehicles.
He’d heard of a junkyard, still in operation, over the course of the past 30 years, but it seemed like no one really knew exactly where it was. During another stop on his seemingly endless hunt, Willy ran into old-timer named Phil who is no stranger to hot rodding. The conversation rolled around to the yard somewhere in the hill of WV, and Phil passed Garland Napier’s info along.
Willy rang Garland and while the call was short, the message was “Come On Over”! So Willy saddled up and drove from one back road to another and finally found it…
