The Junkyard Cars are minor characters in The Brave Little Toaster. They are a group of damaged cars who live in the junkyard of Ernie's Disposal.
Role in the film[]
When Toaster and the other appliances are sent to the junkyard, they watch in awe as several cars are loaded onto a large conveyor belt by the Giant Magnet and killed by Crusher. The cars being loaded onto the belt sing the song "Worthless", where they each tell their respective story of how they ended up in the junkyard.
The cars with individual solos in "Worthless" include a Blue Sedan, a Pink Convertible, a Red Corvette, an Old Race Car, a Yellow Limousine, a Hearse, a Yellow Station Wagon, and a Green Pickup Truck. Several other cars also have minor speaking roles/lines in the film.
