There is a niche on YouTube filled with videos of people exploring abandoned buildings. However, rarely does one come across an empty warehouse full of forgotten cars. In this clip, Ethan Minnie reveals his collection of decrepit Ford Mustangs, among other interesting vehicles.
As the title of the video suggests, this collection belongs to someone who won the lottery in the 1980s and then went bankrupt. Judging by the vehicles, this guy has a preference for Ford and Mercury but also has nothing against owning some GM products.
As soon as Minnie walked into the warehouse, she immediately found several cars. The first he saw was a seventh-generation Mercury Cougar from the early 1990s. Unfortunately, people have damaged some vehicles by breaking windows and painting them.
A 1980 Chevrolet Camaro is next to the Cougar. The owner’s manual is still in the glove box.
In front of the Camaro is a 1960s Ford Mustang Convertible. It was in worse condition than any vehicle in the building. Without a roof, water and debris could fall into the exposed interior.
The first generation Ford Falcon from the early 60s is in the back corner. All glass intact, and no signs of rust. Looks like the car could be cleaned well.
The next room is a Fox body Mustang fan’s dream, or perhaps a nightmare given the condition of the car. They’re all from before the 1987 model year refresh where the front end was smoother.
A couple of ’60s Mustangs are around the corner. Both were in rough shape and had lots of missing parts.
A Chevy Caprice wagon from the late ’80s occupies the center of the room.
There is still one more room to visit. An early-’80s Cadillac Seville clings to one wall, and other than a broken window, appears to be in good condition. The mid-’60s Ford Galaxie convertible had a rougher build. Fox body Mercury Capri and 60’s Mustang complete the collection.
Just because a building is abandoned doesn’t mean nobody owns it. The video gives no hint of anyone caring about this forgotten car.
