Excellent score at the auction. The Dodge Brothers is worth rebuilding.

[@gilnorton1]

Some great buys you got. I really want to thank you for taking us along. I can’t get around to experience it myself and it brings back fond memories of years past. I hope you make a great profit. Peace

[@stanleyjohnson2860]

when we going to meet your dad and receive junk wisdom?

[@LP-mz8rc]

Great video. There is a neat thing to do with old tires but helps to have a lot of them. They make strong driveways or roads. You have to dig and level out the ground. Line them up in single height rows and columns. Completely pack insides with dirt and then cover with dirt and gravel. No more worries about washed out driveways. Some people have also used this method for cabin and/or off grid foundations.😊

[@reneprovencher8395]

Neat buys Silas! I loved watching your kids hugging each other, it’s so nice to see. Yes, it looked like a very hot day. Enjoy your videos. I’m a machinery nut, love everything to do with machinery stuff! I saw the old car door handles, Lordy I was looking for some years ago. Put them on anything old!!!!

[@PRR5406]

The two children are treasures, Silas. You're a good Dad to involve them in your hobbies and work. Kids feel appreciated when you share your time and show them how important they are to you. Auction was fun to watch.

[@thomasroberts9752]

Your dad being able to spend the whole day with you and his grand children is more valuable than any of the stuff yall bought IMO

the 6 volt horn CAN be used on a 12 volt system if you simply wire a chrysler porcelain Ballast Resistor in the power line.. cuts it down to 7 volt

Great to see you’re taking your kids along with you to the auction, thanks for sharing, love your show

[@norwegianzound]

Americans are obsessed by family and stating the importance of family. Here in Ireland, it's a given that doesn't need to be restated. Not criticizing you (really, I don't mean to), I just wonder what the basis of it is?. High divorce rates splitting families both physically and geographically perhaps?

My daughter (she’s 8) loves to go to auctions with me. She usually finds some toy or something that catches her eye for us to bid on. It makes for quality time together.

That roof rack "might" even be a trunk mounted rack of a british sports car.

[@stevenfinley7932]

Or maybe a mid 1960's VW bug ...

[@willhorting5317]

Brings back memories! My late grandpa, my dad, and myself, all used to go to auctions like that. Usually when my dad went to them, he was going hoping to get a certain item that was on the sale bill. But my grandpa, and me, we went for the "entertainment value"... and to see if we could luck into some "great deals". Especially on small items. Both of us had the bad habit of buying a box of "junk" for $1 to $5 a box, sometimes not even knowing for certain if there was anything we could use.😂 Man, neither of the women I married, enjoyed going to the auctions. And they always wanted to know, "Why did you buy that junk?"😂 Unfortunately, due to my health, I haven't been to an auction in probably five years.🙁

[@willhorting5317]

@Fuch KZbin are you trying to be amusing?

[@willhorting5317]

@Fuch KZbin before I go any farther with an answer to your question....I need to ask you 2 questions of my own...#1) How old are you? And #2) Are you American? These are serious questions, and I would appreciate honest answers. Thank you.

[@willhorting5317]

@Fuch KZbin well, even though you have not answered my questions about how old you are; and whether you are from America...I am going to go ahead and answer YOUR questions.🤦‍♂️ And, based on your previous comments to me, I will assume that you are either an actual child; or the American English language is not the language that you normally speak; or you are simply trying to be a jerk. When I said "my late grandfather", I didn't mean that he was tardy, or behind schedule. In the way that I was using the word "late"...it is a way or form of saying that he has passed away. In other words, it means that he is dead. THAT is why I don't find your comments amusing.

[@roberthatfull3816]

I love auctions at my first ever auction i bought a car i was 9 It was a uk sale i remember it cost £65 lol i was hooked i used to go to the police auctions for bikes and motorcycles in my teens there was a lot of money to be made id buy a trailer load of stuff for bout £300 back then there great fun and have intresting stuff id love to go to a auction in america it looks awesome silas 🤘

[@allenballew6977]

Good eye on your bidding and buying. Thanks for sharing the kids with us they seem happy junk buying with dad , and very happy with cinnamon rolls and other treats. thanks for the videos and taking us along.

[@ultraviolettp3446]

Thanks for taking us to the auction - I went to lots of auctions when I was a kid - my parents were into antiques and they'd buy things that needed refinishing and they used them to furnish our house. Love auctions! You are great, Silas. I just wish Mr Goodpliers had your voice. I try to watch his videos, but that voice.... oh well..

[@jjMcCartan9686]

Glad it's not just me that finds his voice a little trying lol.🤭

[@dombutler7685]

That Skittles Jeep would have made a good crushing video!!! You made some really good buys, especially on the Diamond T and the trucks that you got. Love the old Dodge, i'm after a 283 to rebuild, that one was a bargain, but also a boat anchor!

Cool stuff, those thunderbird hubcaps, my dad had a 1983 Grand Marquis wagon back in the 80s and had those hubcaps.

[@1tojo]

Most of the Suburbans from the 80s had 4 barrel Rochester carbs

[@garyruark9506]

Neat. The old Dodge has solid steel wheels. Bases on the age of it that was a desirable accessory. Most would have had wooden wheels.

Hi Gary I’m Maria from Minnesota. How are you doing. Looking for a new friend okay

good thing they called the scrap dealer, they through all the hubcaps into a shredder where they belong

[@garythomas4914]

love the auction video! brings back memories of when I used to go to them here north of Boston. nowadays auctions are pretty rare around here but they were great places to socialize and make connections with like minded folks. Silas, you would have liked an auction that took place at a factory down the street from me here in Beverly, MA. United Shoe Machinery Corp. was the world's largest maker of shoe-making machinery and in 1988 they auctioned off the contents of their 1.2 million sq foot facility, just enormous and packed with machines and parts from as far back as 1900! their factory was the world's largest reinforced concrete structure until the Hoover Dam was built.

[@deweygill1973]

Looks like a nice little haul you ended up with. Always liked listening to a good auctioneer’s chant. One of these guys was pretty good. But nobody will ever come close to “Speed” Riggs, the tobacco auctioneer Shifter might be for a Mustang

[@fredbalandran3182]

I collect old license plates thanks again for posting

[@williamsouthard9663]

I think that roof rack is off or not rambler scrambler station wagon

[@EfficientRVer]

Not sure what the roof rack was off of, but today I'd sell it to someone building out a van to live/travel in. It could double as a little deck space if floored, or double as a stealthy place to put a solar panel. And possibly all of the above if an expensive walk-on strength solar panel is used. The channels or extrusions on the bottom of it are ideal for mounting a solar panel to. Plus it's retro/cool, bordering on badass.

[@tomfournier4941]

I used to work for an auctioneer. What your Dad and the other scrapper did at that auction is called "Collusion". We used to throw people out of auctions if we caught them doing this. I guess all fair in business but it is an extremely frowned upon thing in the auction business. The property owner probably knew what happened and that's why he was so nasty.

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

It’s free market capitalism 😆 He had a chance to sell them for much more money but decided to gamble. Happens to the best of us.

[@tomfournier4941]

@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch Definitely it is. We did take Collusion at auctions very seriously though. You've got to bear in mind that the auctioneer is working on a percentage basis. It's true that when he takes a job he takes a chance that it won't be profitable. Collusion creates an uneven playing field though so is not taken lightly. As you rightly said though, it is a free market and I'll add that it's to be expected that people will do things like that. It does create hard feelings with auctioneers and can result in being banned from future auctions as well.

[@jamosgarage9006]

Great auction. Taking the kids along is the best. Teach them young.

Those kids got to see things they'll probably never see again. Great times.

[@dh190852]

I don't speak "Auctioneer" so I don't bother going to those.

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

It’s all about making things seem fast paced when they actually aren’t, that way people are more likely to get into a frenzy and pay more than they normally would. Sometimes it works, but not at this auction. I got some crazy good deals

[@darrellsaunders4267]

That roof rack might be on late 50 to early 60 Rambler station wagon.

[@grabasandwich]

I miss when my kids were that small. Enjoy it while it lasts! EDIT: 8:24 !!!! @busgreasemonkey might like that one! Edit 2: did you bother running the casting # off that small block? Slight chance it could've been a rare one.

Overall we enjoyed the Day with You and Your Kids had some Great Food and looked happy ! Great Video and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!

[@Mr_Everyman]

That gin pole truck was designed to flip the pole back over the cab by the load of it, so you can still use the flatbed and then load and unload with the pole when needed

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

We tried that, but it stops pointing almost straight in the air 😆

[@chrizmomarlin5818]

I believe it's not a roof rack, it belongs on a 70s triumph trunk luggage rack.

[@williamdeegan7840]

Great stuff that you bought. The Dodge Brothers is really cool. That's a perfect car for yard art. Could be restored. Early DB cars aren't very common. Hope it does get restored.

[@rpf691]

Silas, I think that luggage rack was an option on GM,Ford, Mopar for the trunk lid .

[@johnje4285]

I love that vintage Dodge Bros car. It would be wonderful to have a complete nuts and bolts restoration

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

It’s going to have a crazy future actually. More details will be out on that later in the year

[@marcpavlik8776]

@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch That's good to hear Silas, I got a lump in my throat when you mentioned crushing party or whatever. If it were up to my decision I'd splatter a gallon of cheap oil base paint on it, toss a couple hoods over the top, list it and until it sells use it for yard art. That's a classic, too bad I'm poor. By the way I'm a Ford man and a 327 Chevy man not Dodge, but wow, these oldies are awesome.

i’m not sure if you know this or not on the Chevy 283 i know you bought it for the Carburetor but the Old Chris Craft Powerboats used 283s marinized with Chris Craft bolt on Parts basically to basically turn them into Raw Water Cooled motors the 283s had a Forged Crank and that was what made them good for Marine Use because they could handle the extra Tourque put on them spinning a Propeller in the Water i restored a 1964 Chris Craft CabinCruiser in the early 90s and i needed a replacement motor at that time the 283 engines were getting difficult to find although through my LocalChevy guys i found one a guy had used to Restore a olImpala and sadly the car got totaled in a Collission right after the Restoration the guy actually was a Auto Mechanic and he pulled the motor thinking he would have another use for it in the future in reality it just got in his way so he wound up letting it go to me fairly cheap as when i found him i had Cash in my Pocket as far as i’m aware that Engine is still in my old boat i mention this because it might be a Market you weren’t aware of that group of people self included doesn’t mind spending Stupid Money on things we need to keep things Period Correct or As close to Factory as we can i know you mentioned it was Locked up but chances are a guy using it in a boat plans on going through it anyway i did the same with mine with the Help of my then Local Chevy Machine Shop guy i was lucky enough to be freinds with two local Brothers and Mechanics that restored Bel Airs and first GenerationCamaros plus raced them with their Garage name on them that was in a WashingtonD.C. Suburb and the Chevy guys were pretty tight they all knew one another ,used the same Local Shops and kept tabs on the Motors that were at one time in their Ownership i was a Woodworker myself played Around in Cars and Power boats and Ironically two of my Coworkers had owned a Locall very successfull Corvette Speed Shop and those guys got dibs on on most of the Wrecked Cars that Insurance Companies Totalled and those guys would pull the motors and warehouse them and sold them off cheapn as is i actually know wher two of those Motors made it into peoples Work Trucks one of which was a Old Grumman Box Truck my Company one time Owned as our Deleviry truck we blew the original SmallBlock and bought a old Corvette motor for a few hundred dollars at that time it was the cheapest route for us to get our Truck back on the Road
