i've spent over 4 hours wandering around one yard just looking. plenty of wrecked cars to see up close for as long as you want. there's a lot of tech schools will use junkyard cars for paint and body work training, so wild things will pop up in the middle of the yard that just deserve a closer look. or there's plenty of questionable customizations that people do to cars that end up there as well.

and not so much these cars, but older domestic vehicles had a ton of trim variants, sometimes very random one's-- if you start looking, there's some wild factory iterations worth looking through as well.
