The Decaying Dodge Chargers in This Car Graveyard Desperately Seek Rescuing

In this video, you will either see the ultimate muscle car haven or the epitome of car junkyard hell. Located in Oregon, Illinois, Mopar City specializes in Chrysler corporation vehicles, with a particular focus on those from the 1960s and ’70s.

If you’re looking for Dodge Chargers, there’s probably no better place to find them than here. However, don’t expect them to be in pristine condition. Most of these Chargers are afflicted with rust and are lacking their engines, with grass sprouting where the powerplant used to be.

The car graveyard is roughly organized by make and model. The Chargers are in one section, while Challengers and Plymouth Barracudas can be found in another.

All of these cars are up for sale, as the owner is eager to offload the entire collection. But the sad reality is that only a handful of them appear salvageable, and even then, extensive restoration work would be necessary. However, for those in search of project car body panels, there may be some viable options. Also, certain parts like bumpers, trim, and lights are still usable. Unfortunately, some of the vehicles have deteriorated to the point where there are hardly any components left.

This car graveyard serves as a reminder that nothing lasts forever. These vehicles were once purchased and cherished by individuals who saw something extraordinary in them. Yet, over time, they ended up at Mopar City, decaying day after day.

The video concludes with a drone providing an aerial view of Mopar City, offering a sense of the vast number of cars present and the different sections where they are located.

In the next video of this series, viewers will get a glimpse inside the various buildings on the site, which are filled with parts, particularly for Chargers, Challengers, and Barracudas.

Meanwhile, Dodge is gearing up to revive the look of its second-generation Charger from the 1968 to 1970 model years. Rumor has it that the new Charger will come equipped with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine and may even be available as an electric vehicle.
