Old Car City in White, Georgia has been dubbed the world’s largest known old car junkyard, which is quite impressive for this roadside hidden gem.
What’s been declared a “photographer’s paradise” smack dab in the middle of a forested landscape, guests can meander the area enjoying classic cars that have been taken over by the surrounding natural area.
The land was once used for a general store, and then a car dealership that sold used car parts. The Lewis family who owned the land eventually accumulated more and more cars, which eventually began to rust and decay.
While most of the vehicles are from the 20th century, there are plenty of classic cars from the 50s through the 80s that offer up one of the most unique automotive history lessons.
Come explore over 4,000 American-made cars, trucks, vans, and even a few school buses as they decay in one of the most fascinating museums in the south.
