30+ CAR BARN FIND: 550 Acres in MINNESOTA

[@alejandrohenao7348]

A real treasure, I'm really glad that these cars have a second chance and are back on the road ... I hope they can show us the final result of their restoration

[@jrdervish]

Love the Imperial at 5:29 and the Volvo at 5:48. Oldsmobile at 7:00 was my family's car in 1954. the 4-door at 7:50! I never heard of Farmall! The Diamond T is a thing of beauty - look at that hood ornament! (22:00) I'm so glad people (@DennisCollins!) take the time - and have the expertise - to rescue and preserve this fantastic automotive history! Please go back for the Imperial!

[@jskavaloski]

When i see vids like this, its kinda sad.... somebody's dreams died with them. People often think and plan like they have 3 more lives to live....time runs out for everyone. My grandpa used to say we don't own anything, we're just borrowing it....someday it will be someone elses to care for or ignore...and we'll have no say in the matter. Some cool old cars for sure....lots of life stories tied to each one.

[@jasonsparshott7208]

That is soooo true !! Your Grandfather was a very wise man . We need to enjoy the little/ big things while we can and hopefully someone else will enjoy it as much as we did !!

[@paxhumana2015]

@jskavaloski, YAHWEH EL ELOHIM ultimately owns everything, and your grandfather was right...we cannot take it with us when we die, thus it is wise to not value material things too much in our lives, or else we will value things more than the Creator and those lost souls that we were called to save in our lives.

[@ianmangham4570]

@@paxhumana2015 It is not wise to worship the invisible man.

[@Willibrown1000]

For sure that one sports car classic today I recognised. Also that farm is close to St Cloud I think. Anyway the owner did drugs end of story.

[@fraidykat]

Just remember, those who dream big and collect large are the reason the next generation has the chance to dream even just a little bit. Otherwise, all of these cars would have been crushed a long, long time ago just like all the rest that used to be around. So go ahead, collect them all - and make sure the next round has that chance to dream. Caretakers are few and far between!!

Hi Dennis , please can I pass on a tip? At night turn the instrument illumination down as it will help your eyes see better in night driving conditions. The less light in the cabin when driving at night the better. Loving the content. Outstanding !

Collins, your level of vehicle knowledge just blows me away. The stuff you know, the details, is just amazing. Much enjoy your vids, keep it coming. Never will get tired of watching. Thanks, man.

[@harvyss136]

Hey Dennis, That Impala is a 66 not a 67. It isn't an SS obviously but it has the SS caps and SS dash trim! Very Unique. You know a lot more about cars then I'll ever know, but I know my Imps. I live here and am still trying to figure out what a "chigger" is. Ha Ha! And we don't walk in the weeds in rubber boots, unless we are hunting. But hey, they look good on you! Keep up the good work!

I've never seen Minnesota in such a beautifully dry weather, not to mention that gorgeous sunset glow. The secrets hidden in the unassuming barns of the world. This is exactly why its WHO you know & not so much WHAT you know that proves important. Making the world ever more complete...barn by barn. Call yourselves what you like...but, first & foremost...you guys are archivists of the automotive...pushing against decay with fervour.

[@philipmichel215]

Cool finds. I was most excited about the wreckers you passed on the way in. Don't cut the Diamond T frame, find a Holmes w35 wrecker and body to put on it .. way cool

[@anthonylucero7904]

I think Dennis is awesome…. His knowledge of cars is outstanding. I did catch an error though. I love cars as well. I’ve always been a big Chevy and GM car lover since I was a kid. The Chevy convertible they pulled out that barn is a 1966 Chevrolet Impala convertible not a 1967….

[@fastdadgarage-northsouthch4418]

Dennis always seems truly excited about all the cars. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@maxwell431]

I mean...he's making hundreds of thousands of dollars off of them....why wouldnt he be? duh

[@MrScottiedub]

Incredible! When I was a kid I always dreamt about the British sports cars.I almost had but tr3 for 750 bucks he sold it to somebody else my friend refused to sell it to me because he said it was a nightmare and it was going to ruin my life. The Austin-Healey to is just amazingand the diamond t truck was just the icing on the cake.I would actually like to start transporting stuff for a living and building something like that diamond tea just to tow trailers would be cool.

[@frankportigiano1910]

Is anyone else Impressed that Dennis goes to all these locations and personally checks out these cars because i know i am

[@deannederhoff]

No I'm not impressed at all.thats the kind of business he's in.he knows what to look for and is very thorough at what he does. He's different from Richard Rawlings.Dennis goes for more of these classic and rare cars ,and depending on what it is,will restore it or just clean it up and sell it.its fun to watch him work. Wish I had his money

[@dreamcars-nl]

Wow, all thoose cool cars standing right there

[@wotrulke5868]

As someone who is from the UK 🇬🇧 it amazes me how long and how many cars are just left in barns and just laying around rotting to bits 🤷🏼‍♂️, Great video 👍🏼

[@trigsretromotors]

Exactly what I thought, amazing!

[@jameseastwood4984]

They just have the space. It's a much, much lower population density in the US, despite have 5 times the number of people compared to us in the UK. There's just so many farms and so many buildings. Plus the post war marketing machine just pushed product out relentlessly. People with a bit of land park the old car up and never get round to selling or scrapping them. Some buy a newer model and just keep the old one for spares. Out in the country, people's yards are littered with cars and trucks gently rusting.

[@jasonmushersee]

at first i thought this was my xgf place but that farm is down the road. over the years local bi laws come along not more than 3 unregistered vehicles per property so either park inside or haul to salvage and salvage yards came under new environmental laws/insurance liability so they hauled them to scrap. back early 90's vintage muscle cars stacked 3 high at salvage yards. i know of many century farms like this 10 times more cars than this. one farmer i worked for there's banged up 69 chargers parked all over a cow pasture and beat up model t fords on top of rock piles. im restoring a 68 mustang now absolutely cannot find seats for it

[@ChrisDragotta]

People with money and land collect them, and then they die.

[@ronluckenbach9492]

Dennis, you always go for the ‘cream of the crop‘ You ain’t a super young Dude, but for your age, your knowledge of ALL vintage cars and trucks is broad and deep.. I know my vintage Brit / German sportscars well ...owned enough of them...but your overall vintage car acumen amazes me. looks like you have a well thought out trip every time you hit the road..and you aren’t afraid to spend money to make money. just subscribed.

[@nickchristenson5818]

Hey Dennis, I own a tow company in the neighboring town from this barn find. Without listing the old guys name, I’ve towed his vehicles home a few times. As a lifetime motorhead I knew just glancing at what he had and visiting with him he had an extensive collection. If you ever end up going back for the Volvo’s hit me up I’d love to help out! From time to time I’ll run across a customer that has a few vehicles they’ll show me they’ve held on to that may have your interest, after watching your videos I have a pretty good idea what you might be interested in. Pretty cool your passion for bringing these old classics back to life. Take care!

Love that oil bath air intake. Snaking around 3 sides of the engine. That car adjusts engine speed every time you shift. For a smoother shift. That swing arm rear end automatically levels the car when you load it up. And it should have a full set of bellypans. So it dont get hung up on any rocks when you go off road. Really! And check out the ash tray in the middle of the dash. Pull the whole thing straight up and out. Because it features a trap door that empties, no scrapes the tray clean every time you open the lid. I found some old hard candies that who knows how long they had been there. Then theres that big resistor sitting next to the battery.......great find and good luck!
