[@THROTTLEPOWER]

And a 4 speed, oh yea, that's a cool car!!!!! 👍🙂👍

[@natew8882]

At 20:08, did Joe have Mexican food for lunch?😂

[@dalesmith112]

Another typical Mr. Goodpliers recovery episode .... Tim films while Joe does all the work.. LOL 🤣. SMART 💡

[@williamdeegan7840]

Full caps on the AMC. It's a good looking car, deserves full caps.

[@WoodyFixit]

Nice! You got the Econoline! Love it.

[@OsbornTramain]

That AMbassador is extremely cool....the top of the line, SST and nicely equipped, sharpe looking hardtop

[@debbiebermudez5890]

Mr. B. Here ! From what Mr. Goodpliers has show case most of the vehicles in that yard would be great project cars 🚗 👀 with a little work ! LOL ! 🍺🍺🌭🌭

[@javierdenardo2607]

From the back, the Rambler looks like a 67 Fairlane. Nice save!

[@andreamills5852]

Dad had two of these Econoline's on for parts and one he drove . The one he drove was rustier than the Titanic . He carried a hammer with him to beat on the shift linkage when it got stuck which was frequent . So as a kid I learned some really cool choice curse words .

[@shaunclifton5281]

That is one Wild and very Cool AMC. Wow ! SST bench 4 speed, with AC, PB, PS 🏆

[@steveriley1995]

Definitely the dog dish hubcaps. 👌

[@robertbarkey3194]

Wow there's the tow truck you need to buy so you have easy access to all the vehicles and pull them out easier ,that's what I have I have a 72 Ford Holmes tow truck

[@billyhord4508]

Dog dish caps for sure. AMC would make a nice driver. Really like the 2 Fords.

[@shaunclifton5281]

That Sears service truck is too Cool.

[@johnelliott7375]

The AMC the way it is with the dog dish caps.

[@mattsgarage6670]

where do you list your vehicals? i love the little blue utility truck

[@ericesterby2895]

The AMC Ambassador is definitely a ‘68. I’m kind of a sucker for the dog-dish hubcap and trim ring look, with a narrow whitewall.

[@oliverpetroski4205]

The AMC car is a very good project. Would love to see it getting cleaned in a future video. As far as wheel caps on it🤔 both styles look cool they just need to be a matching set. As long as no ugly modern ventilator shaped wheel are on it, both of the stiles are cool. But if I had to choose one, if it was my car I would go with dog dish wheels caps, because they are sporty looking, yet still are classics.

[@urbanurchin5930]

....??? ..... styles ???

[@danielulz1640]

That Ambassador was a top of the line SST. Go with the full wheel covers. When you get it running, brace yourself for some surprising performance. That is a rare version of a rare car with a four speed and a split bench. Bucket seats were available and something like 98.6% of Ambassadors were automatics.

[@ernielaw]

When I read that he got a rare AMC I assumed it was the Marlin cause that's rarer yet. But that was not to be.!

[@robertharding4166]

DOG DISH IS THE LOOK. 👍

[@WoodyFixit]

I drove a Econoline for years. I Always heard you'll be the first one to the scene of the accident in the Econoline. Tons of fun to drive!

[@daviddamico4288]

The rambler has the same look as the ford fairlane , and four speed as well. Great choice on all that you got Tim ..

[@renchjeep]

Nice score on the Ambassador SST! I had a 68 4-door Ambo SST years ago, but it was a parts car for my 69 AMX 390 as it had no title. I didn't get much off of it that actually worked, don't even recall what I did get off of it. LOL. Long time ago....And I am partial to the dog dish hub caps on that ride.

[@rustyramblings5807]

I don’t know what you paid for them,but I think you really scored on the Ambassador and the Econoline pickup.The Ambassador must be a fairly rare car.I rode in one nearly 50 years ago,but it was a automatic.Very comfortable cars.And the seats that lay back ,probably a pretty popular feature at the drive in theatres

[@johnellis8480]

I'm glad you got the Econoline pickup, was hoping you would also get the Dodge A100. Back in the late 60's I worked for the local Dodge dealer while in high school, they had one for a parts runner. Fun vehicle to drive on icy roads!

[@shaunclifton5281]

I love A100s

[@johnm.5848]

The AMC looks better with the full wheel covers and it's my pick of the four that you bought Mr. GP.

[@ronaldwatterly7747]

I learned to drive a standard shift in my dad's 62 Econoline.

[@goneshootin61]

That amc is a rare find indeed .

[@patdesrosiers6423]

Rambler is an excellent score with lots of potential. I’m partial to the poverty caps. I also like the diesel square body and the Econoline truck. I saw a Chevy with similar add on utility boxes to the Sears truck at a swap meet last winter. My 73 C-30 has a full Stahl utility body

[@therealmotorcyclemichael]

That blue Chevy is very nicely optioned. A factory short box diesel has to be fairly rare.

[@dyer2cycle]

Not really rare from that era..that was before the big 3/4 ton diesel pickup boom that started with the Cummins Dodge...most of the ones I remember seeing from the late 70's and 80's were 1/2 ton shortbed, and automatic. Those 350 diesels, and even the 6.2 that replaced it was anemic in performance, hard to start in cold weather, stinky, and rattley..only diehard diesel guys bought them new, and they had very poor resale on the used market. Many were later converted to gas...

[@mikeabresch3827]

You pick good cars this time love the Ford van pick up

[@jeffclark2725]

Great adventure, thanks for bringing us along,,the property cleaning jobs are always great 👍

[@leograppin8962]

My first truck was a baby blue 69 Ford I loved it

[@brandaneakright6082]

That ambassador is a really cool find, especially being a 4 speed car . I’d run the dog dishes on it, gives it that sleeper look.

[@dombutler7685]

You got some good cars and please buy Joe a new pair of pants - he's earned them!! Dog dish ones

[@patmayer7222]

Land o' lakes,wi.....here !......more fun stuff..😮😮....tnx.

[@scottkarjala]

Good thing we caught Joe on an underwear day!

[@joycemusgrave161]

Pops here. Full wheel covers.

[@Gerk8]

That Ambassador is soooo cool! Possibly your best score yet! Can we see a will it run?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It would be a tough one - I don't think the engine is free

[@jontaylor1652]

Full wheel covers for me, great looking car.

[@realmaindrianpace]

I've always been a big fan of that series of Rebel/Ambassador, just really good looking cars made before AMC got weird. And a loaded 4 speed? Just minty.

[@brettjones5041]

full covers nice pick up choices sirs.

[@theresters1]

EXCELLENT CHOICES AND VLOG!

[@nealsidor1323]

That Ambassador is great. It was their top of the line and the two door hardtop was marketed as a perfomance machine with "V8 power & 4 on the floor..." Full wheel covers are probably correct but I prefer the poverty caps...

[@pinkladybikermamma3603]

MAN, YOU PICKED YOURSELF SOME GOOD ONES

[@michaelfraser5723]

Econ o line, slowly turning into premium line

[@robertbarkey3194]

You guys need to find all the unilug rims that you can and keep them around that's what I do😅

[@jamesthompson8008]

Definitely dog dishes on the Ambassador, & I'm thinking that's fairly rare for a manual in one of those! 72 F100 service truck needs to be saved, NOT parted, IS to solid of a truck for that. Good score on the C10 shorty!

[@carlroberts7830]

you owe that man a new pair of pants

[@novagasser]

Mr. G first let me apologize for posting this observation but in my defense Iam an eastcoaster and to see all that rust free sheet metal still alive and well absolutely blows my mind. around here salvage yards no longer exist but when they did everything had rotted to the ground years ago. as for this contriversial comment, after seeing all and i mean so many cool projects , i dont get only scoring a few old trucks and a bug. sorry i know iam stepping on the feelings of bug lovers and old truck guys but wow there were so many other possibilities. you do get a huge thumbs up for saving that AMC Rebel. so cool its a 4 speed. hope we see what you do with it. i really thought you would save that nice black four door 63 pontiac and that two door cyclone. cant remember it it was a 66 or a 67. as a musclecar guy i hope somebody saved that 65 GTO and the rare talledega. anyway despite our difference in car choices, i love your videos. keep them coming. best wishes to you and your pop. stay safe

[@XGarage-nj2uf]

Three nice looking project trucks. AMC is awesome!

[@brianandlindafairchild1237]

AMC has a 67goat front end and 67 Ford Fairlane rear end.

[@robj2704]

Years ago, I saw an Ambassador in my town sitting in the middle of the highway with a front wheel laid askew as the ball joint had separated.

[@glenbo2464]

Love the AMC ! Looks similar to a 67 Fairlane from the back. My Moms friend had a 72 4 door Ambassador , red with black top. I took it once at about 14 when my mom had borrowed it and tried to show off to a friend but scared us trying to do a burnout ! LOL

[@jimchevy4134]

That ford f100 utility truck would be kool

[@williamelkins1613]

My 70 AMX still had the splined axles. Never broke one even highly modified.

[@robertnauss4815]

Nice score ..AMC is my favorite

[@BOZOSMITH-xw3ms]

That tree rub on the door is a deal breaker

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

...or just a part of the story of the history of this car's life.

[@derekperkins8158]

well i see that you are the first one that gets to drive it even when they don't run..lol

[@fredbalandran3182]

That’s great you guys Saving those old cars be safe out there

[@johndunning1590]

Dog dish hub caps with raised white letter tires

[@andreamills5852]

You can't go wrong with dog dish.

[@Oelwannski]

Again the "eternal Beetle".

[@nojunkwork5735]

I have a few Ramblers and AMC cars in my collection. That Ambassador is a very nice find. I hope you post the restoration on your channel. I had an Econoline van once. Sitting over the front end like that it took me a couple of days before I learned how not to run over people's toes standing on the curb with the back wheels when turning a corner. With the rip in your pants, we are all glad you didn't go commando that day! LOL.

[@fredbalandran3182]

Thanks for the video be safe out there

[@liljoeii6091]

Thank you for the video

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Thanks for stopping by the channel Joe!

[@dyer2cycle]

That tool body bed, along with that liftgate, would have been a helluva load for that 1/2 ton pickup, even before you loaded anything into the bed...that type setup is far better suited to long bed 3/4 ton and 1 ton pickups. I can't imagine why anyone would have ordered that stuff on a half ton...

[@larrybailey43]

I like that AMC !

[@danmadison5087]

The bugwagon looks like a good score. It doesn't look like it belongs there at all.

[@johnelliott7375]

AMC looks like a lot like a Ford Galaxy or a Galaxy 500, I have seen a few LTD coupes look similar to that

[@darrenbrisson4336]

I also had the army 1 1/2 ton square body version had that hydrolic brake booster

[@NastyCustoms5150]

Nice econoline!

[@CommercialVehicle]

Very cool AMC 👍👍

[@ThomasSmith-fz6wq]

You guys happened to know where a guy could find a factory four wheel drive 1964 through 66 Chevrolet truck or gmc that needs restoration? Not too expensive! Something like around 2500 to 5000 that has the original engine and running gear!

[@dyer2cycle]

Good luck finding that these days, especially a 4x4 from that era at anywhere near that price...

[@WildBillFlysRC]

There used to be a place called Mill Supply that had a lot of sheet metal panels. I have owned 2 econoline trucks, a 1963 and a 61 five window, a twin to the one you guys picked 👍🍻🌵

[@rogerhadley2763]

you made some great choices

[@dyer2cycle]

There are woods in Kansas? I thought Kansas was all wide open flat, or rolling grassland/farmland that tornadoes loved to dance around in every spring...

[@jonrajsl291]

TONS OF COUNTRY WOODS IN KANSAS.....

[@darrylowens9298]

I enjoy your videos but do you ever fix up any of these vehicles ? I’d like to see something running and driving. Do you just immediately resale these things ?

[@larrybailey43]

Nice AMC

[@brobrown6553]

joe's da man an doggy all day

[@sallybrokaw6124]

Joe Tim would rather it be you crawling on the ground so he doesn't get into the poison ivy😅. AL B.

[@robertbarkey3194]

That's a 5 Window n that's worth some money huh

[@thethriftbandit]

Looks like your bro is always doing all the work.😂👌

[@daveseddon5227]

I was just thinking to myself that there are usually problems with brakes and clutches but steering always seems to work! 🤣

[@patdesrosiers6423]

Unless someone boosted the steering box

[@daveseddon5227]

@@patdesrosiers6423 Very true! It did amuse me - in an ironic kinda way!

[@paulrhodes8111]

Full wheel covers for the AMC, would give it more of a finished/ classy look. Just my 2 cents worth. Love the Rambler, great looking hardtop.

[@brucekimpton4725]

Dog dish hubcaps for me

[@larrybailey43]

Thought I saw a Studebaker pickup on ur way out with the Ford . Ya better grab um up for they getten popular !

[@delgray8523]

Some rare ones. What is the motor in the Ambassador ?

[@michaelclark7037]

Sears more than likely ordered those Service Trucks as a Cab & Chassis then added the Box Locally.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

I was out at a guy's place once, and found a literal mountain of stepside rear fenders - took me a few years to put two and two together, but they were takeoffs from new trucks fitted with utility bed sides

[@darrenbrisson4336]

My uncle chuck had a van version we called it the grey mare 3 on the tree 6 banger was easy to drive though i almost bought the picknup version in dunrobin ontario canada for 500 with new quarters coming with it but it was a project put on a scout 4x4 frame id a bought it if it wasntvon the frame wanted to do a little red wagon build

[@clintwill8715]

Highly optioned truck, especially with a clock

[@davidcornish9235]

I'm not a ford guy, but what did the Talladega sell for? I do know that car is cool and rare! The C10 short bed is a very good score!

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The long answer is, it was a big buy-in LOL - owner bought the whole package, land and cars. The short answer is, he's keeping it to restore in his body shop

[@SuperNedk]

Is that your brother doing all the hard work? ;)

[@rodneyupton4101]

I have a 83 diesel original paint redone the whole underside long box with shell matching only 882 k on it runs like a top

[@johnpola6810]

What happened to that NASH with the twin carbs, a rare car.

[@wadefarr9596]

Would be tough to film, because would want to help hold other side of a bolt orhand tools or ???

[@mmotodad]

full wheel hubcaps

[@KarlBuechman]

I agree. you are spoiled.Unless you have a agreement with Joe as to his rewards,you are really going to miss him one day.Actually,i have seen some days where you missed him.Be good to people.They are part of your future,you just do not know it yet.+

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Im a mopar man but have owned some cool g.m products as well as ford scrap i stay far away from them now i had a 2000 chevy extreme with standard very rare as most came automatic could smoke the tires up the street and squak second gear dverytime should've kept it

[@lrlforfun]

MGP: A guy drops of a 60 Le Sabre saedan at my place. Dead of course. And yes, by the way.......NO STEERING BOX !!! haha
