[@theappalachianchannel]

Watch this link for part 2 where I go back and work for a week on his farm . kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZCtlKOAmduGl5I

[@elijahbooe597]

This is my grandpa, Wayniee. The lessons he has taught me in those barns or on one of those tractors, I will forever be grateful for. One of the kindest and selfless individuals you will ever meet.

[@allenkranawetter9482]

Your grandfather look very wonderful

[@richardwarfordjr.5622]

I never had a grandpa but am one now life is good 😊 he's a special dude 😎

[@davypeugeot]

He is a great man, you are so lucky to have him. What a wonderful collection.

[@tonycaplinger1633]

You can tell that he’s a good honest man that’s worked hard and enjoyed life and all the things that he’s bought,I can tell you that you have a good grandfather that would probably give the shirt off his back to someone that needed it, Boy he gets along really good for his age,My daddy lived to be 95 and my mother until she passed six months after my father and she was 93,And I will be praying for him and your family and that he lives many more years so yall can enjoy him, And I bet he did teach you a lot of things growing up,Love and God bless you all

[@deanstevenson7517]

You are so lucky to have this man in your life. Make sure you spend as much time as you can to learn from his life experiences.

[@larrywarner9917]

A man of 63 today I so appreciate seeing and hearing the memories of this absolute gentleman. Thank you for letting us get a glimpse of a true American legend.

[@barryjames9812]

No telling how many hundreds of thousands of dollars are sitting on this farm. One of the best videos on KZbin. I am 63 & came from a family that had a lot of the same history seen in this vast equipment shown here. I smiled & had a few tears run down my cheeks remembering the Good Ol’ Days of yesteryear! What a Video!! Thanks a million for posting

[@rcerous6198]

my wards exactly

[@markkelley4762]

What an absolute treasure of a man. I'm only 57 but i grew up in the backwoods and sloughs and have had the pleasure of meeting people just like him. I have learned alot just by listening to these people talk, and alot of them love to talk to other people other than their family. I think it helps them somehow. Because you can truly never go forward in life if you you don't know how we got there in the first place. I learned more about the great depression from talking to some of the older generation than i could ever learn in a book. Point being if your grandparents are still alive or you know someone like waynie, take a little time out of your life to talk about theirs.

[@enigmaticnomadics]

It will never be quite the same around there, when Mr Wayniee passes on. I'm glad to see his grandson here in the comments. I hope it's in the tea leaves for these wonderful memories to stay in the family. God bless the days when a man could work on his own machines and knew how to do it. God bless life before the internet in a lot of ways. God bless this Gentleman.

[@rickreese5794]

Right On 😊

[@dalesmith112]

Thanks to the videographer for taking us along, but... mostly thanks to Mr. Wayne for sharing his collection with us and for the knowledge about it all. Very refreshing video about what appears to be a kindly old gentleman. 😊

[@GentryVintage]

This man is a true national treasure. I would love to spend just part of the day sitting on the back porch talking with him. Really enjoyed seeing his collection, thank you.

[@wildcycles1]

What a nice old fella. The way he was constantly looking out for you to not fall or bump your head really says alot about what a genuine and thoughtful character he is. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be interested in seeing more of him. I'd like to suggest that you do short videos with him every so often. His memory is incredible and I think it would be very interesting to get him to talk about the details of his childhood on the farm or even just to take the time to explain how some of his early equipment was used. It's not often that you get to walk a beautiful place like that with a person who has lived there as long as he has. Wonderful film!

[@allenkranawetter9482]

I live in Missouri I remember using an outhouse 😬😬

[@vlgrock8066]

Yes

[@bettiewatson2949]

What an amazing man he is! I’m 74 and I remember my grandparents had a lot of the same stuff.. thank you Wayne for taking me down memory lane 😍

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@vlgrock8066]

Thank you John Ward for making these kinds of videos where we can all go back in time and see wonderful folks who lived simply but were far richer then anyone today trying to scrabble out a life .

[@goleafsgo8496]

Spent all these years surrounding himself with things that make him feel good. Thank You for sharing Wayne an incredible collection.😊

[@JOECorsoNova]

Probably one of the most enjoyable hour and a half I ever spent on KZbin. What a great soul Wayniee is. Thanks for showcasing his beautiful collection.

[@mflanagan1076]

Miss my father. That's a beautiful thing about people like this man. When you grow up and get the hang out with people like that.

[@vlgrock8066]

Bless his heart . What a wonderful welcoming man . Thank you for sharing your precious treasured things with us here on you tube . So glad to see you don’t want to sell off any of your items that carry those home- heart felt memories of a wonderful time growing up and honoring your mom and dad by keeping all the stuff they saved ! Precious memories… how they linger

[@jonnysuperglide]

He is a good man you don’t find men like him any more a true American that loves his past his heritage and where he come from to the point he would protect it with his life Wayniee is a super man he reminds me of my pap the stories could never get old I would take them all in to keep his memories going on forever it’s so important to love your family it’s a forgotten thing in todays world

[@enigmaticnomadics]

Same. I can't help but feel that this Gentleman is a part of ALL of our family. (Not families)

[@rickreese5794]

He is America 💯👍😎

[@williamslyer318]

There are not enough wonderful words to describe the treasure on this property and this wonderful man has shared so much of his experience for 85 years. He is surely a blessing

[@Teressa690]

Mr. Wayniee sure is a delight. Thanks so much to you both for showing us his collection of a lifetime. Im sure he is glad he hung on to all of his worldly possessions. Such a rare and extraordinary collection. That is appreciation and care when you keep and value. Amazing video Mr. John, thank you and Mr. Wayniee. CC Tennessee. ❤

[@christiaanleblanc3387]

This gentleman is as sharp as a tack. Remembers when and how much he paid for everything. Devote Chevrolet fan. Really enjoyed watching this video. Thank you for sharing

[@theappalachianchannel]

Well said!

[@donaldklapproth8091]

Anyone who was lucky enough to be raised on a carm in the late 40's-60's this will bring back so many wonderful memories. Tractors, farm implements, his older cars, wagons, cigarette point of sale advertisements, etc, were amazing! Thanks for sharing! I remember as a new young salesman of copper, brass and aluminum mill products calling on RJ Renolds and there giving out either a free pack of cigarettes or package of pipe tobacco in 1966!

[@TridyMubsclassictvchannel]

As much as I love watching this because the ol' man looks almost a twin to my father who passed in 2019 ,I worry the wrong type of people will somehow figure out where he lives and then steal from him or harass him to sell his stuff. Still watching this warmed my heart.

[@stantilton2191]

Wow, sure was fun looking at his collection. He seems like a great guy. Thanks for sharing Waynie.

[@donaldwillis6487]

I really enjoyed this tour. It is nice to know there still individuals that enjoy their old stuff and telling people the stories that go with them.

[@jonlennon3348]

He is a man after my own heart.Thank you for sharing your goodies with us.

[@phillipanderson2607]

This person was a safe driver. Truly a very honest person too. Beautiful cars. He should write a book on his life. 😊

[@hillbillytalker8858]

John what a treat to see his treasures and hearing about his family history! He is precious! What some vintage items, we love seeing all the history from times past! Great video keep them coming! Thanks for sharing!

[@DarlenE1362]

How amazing to have lived on the same property for that many beautiful years.. Love everything about This video.. Soo many treasures and precious memories...❤

[@edwinheredia4305]

We just lucky that we have people like this. That knows the value of things. And save it for years and then become history.

[@WhiteManXRP]

This man and his property must be preserved, please, to whom ever this piece of property goes to, please preserve everything, Time capsules everywhere, Priceless..I cannot get over these cars, how is it there is no mice or even dust up there, incredible incredible

[@markanderson3095]

I was thinking the same thing. No dust

[@HeatherLedford-s3p]

Thank you so very much John for filming 🎥these awesome videos of people that have old valuable things and old collectibles and for people that have have restored old buildings and old homes. Also these amazing people still have old general stores. I mean the list goes on and it is so wonderful to see stuff like this. Brings back memories that we can look back on and to thank God for all he has done. May the good Lord always bless us and watch over us and keep us all safe and healthy where ever we go.

[@JammyCrackcorn]

Some of his Memorable Treasures to see…Being a musician, I liked that broken necked guitar in the bedroom..Would love to have it repaired!!

[@johnashep109]

It's sad that when people like him are gone ,their knowledge is gone except for videos like this

[@robertlane3513]

Thank you John and Thank you very much wayne i just loved looking at what all you have collected over the years. you are much like myself, i buy , collect and hate like blazes to get rid of any thing, and age wise we are much the same i will be 85 November coming, but i dont walk about quite as easy as you do, my legs got old on me, from jumping up and down from trucks most of my life, but we will hang in there as long as wqe can, and thank you both very kindly again. Bob from Halifax Nova Scotia Canada

[@ColeAviation]

WOW!!!! What a fantastic guy!!! Don’t find guy like him everyday that will let you come up and make videos of everything they have.

[@dogdue4588]

Piper J3. A real "trainer!"

[@jherndon2u]

What a treat to see all these treasures. My Grandma had lots of those things on her place. She had a smokehouse, an icehouse, a pump house and an outhouse. She had a cistern underground for water storage. Us young'ins made many memories playing at Grandma's. Thanks John for bringing my thoughts back to the "good ole days."

[@vlgrock8066]

Amen to that ! It took me back also … to a gentler time when you got to see granny and grampaw and make memories

[@dispatch444]

THANK YOU! I finally came across someone’s comment without seeing “back in the day”. I wholeheartedly agree with you.

[@terrygifford813]

[@gordocarbo]

Agree, this man has just about seen it all from the early days of cars, all the wars progress and decline of America.

[@normasavitsky489]

Bringing back so many memories of my grandparents farm. Loved all of Wayne's collection.

[@dezrat]

Thank you both. Enjoyed my time seeing Mr Wayne's treasures.

[@tomasgilbert9491]

The folks who have been lucky enough to have called this man a friend for the last 80 years, are surely blessed.

[@terrygraham5901]

You got beautiful car My dad had 57 Chevy love old cars and country music

[@donaldstenico5266]

I'm at a loss for words. I could listen to that man and look at things for a month straight.

[@Wootangtw]

Man yeah… that guy is in good shape for almost 84 years old… he could walk all day and never slow down… he has a lot of stuff… it’s sad a lot of it is rotten from the weather… awesome video… thanks buddy…

[@dstorm7752]

I grew up on a farm and old farmers are always very interesting to talk to. Some of those old tractors, I coulld close my eyes and operate by muscle memory.

[@robertdknight]

What an adventure! That's a ton of history in one place. So cool. He's got a collection of stuff that you don't see anymore. Amazing. Enjoyable person with all of his stories and memories. I image he's got some wonderful stories of growing up farming and living in the country. He's a living treasure. Thanks for sharing, God bless

[@sandrabrown6326]

He has so many wonderful old items. I wish him the best. I know he must love going through his family home and remembering the past.

[@theappalachianchannel]

thanks for the comment, it was a lot of fun filming all his stuff.

[@deanstevenson7517]

[@parker1ray]

I learnt to drive in a 1967 SS Impala! I also drove a 1949 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup in those days!

[@kimberlybeasley657]

Oh I'd love to see his stuff! I love historical items especially from farming!

[@theappalachianchannel]

More to come!

[@kbVACArestatecarsnrvs]

My grandparents lived in NC 6 hrs away from us here in VA growing up, always fun to go for a visit and learn from the elders. Always had trucks and cars from those years in our family. I love Wayniee's 67' Chevys, especially the SS Vert. I had a '67 2 dr coupe Caprice and loved it. Now I'm 67! Wishing him many more years on his farm. He's a very rich man, much more than others with money.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Thanks for sharing!

[@mattskustomkreations]

This gent’s a treasure! 3:55. & Yes they did have 8-tracks in 1967. My ‘67 Mercury Cougar XR-7 came with a factory AM/8-Track Stereo. You could get them in Chevies too.

[@demnis]

HI Appalachian channel 👍 from the D MI 😎 hey thanks for sharing your time and video of a really cool Old tobacco farmer 🤩 and I enjoyed the tour of his property 🌞 and I was born & raised in the D Mi but I also was raised in Tennessee on my Grandfather's farm and we Harvest Tobacco 💪

[@markmoorhead1442]

What a cool guy and he remembers everything about his stuff. Pretty interesting !

[@theappalachianchannel]

It was a lot of fun filming all his stuff, and he remembers a lot of the purchase dates and prices he paid for them.

[@iriepoetryinmotion8342]

Yes he is very aware and knowledgeable

[@iriepoetryinmotion8342]

I'm sure he knows EXACTLY WHERE EVERYTHING IS

[@rita1259-y5c]

His collection is so NICE! Best I've seen!

[@davemoyer505]

He’s a man after my own heart. Could be a long lost brother of mine. Poor man’s a lot like me.😩 Love all the cool stuff. He who dies with the most stuff wins!👍😁🇺🇸❤️

[@margaretg.1740]

Praying for all in Tennessee who have endured all the storms this week. Thank you for all your wonderful videos. God Bless

[@thecurtray]

How very sweet of you

[@LindaScales-hr5br]

John Ward, youve got a great video here, its always good to see my old pal, Waynie. It looks like the years have treated him pretty good. Shout out to him, from the cleaning crew gang from old plant six and eight.🙏❤️🙂

[@redrebels24]

WOW!!!!! That bike is Awesome and looks in great shape

[@theappalachianchannel]

I think so too!

[@budgreen4563]

Wow...what a collection....thanks for the look!!

[@jamescutler8055]

I appreciate the video, but I appreciate that this is probably the most fun this gentlemen has had on his property in a long time more. I hope his family spends time with him and gets to learn what he knows.

[@rickreese5794]

Ol Wayne is sharp, He’s aware of everthang 😊 God Bless and protect this American 😊

[@rickreese5794]

Walkin down memory lane 😊

[@joecable39nc]

thanks for taking time to share these videos

[@goodvibes-87]

He is in really good shape for his age! He picked up that bike like it was a feather. Sharp mind and a good soul.

[@timcooper7845]

Man this is so cool. You and this man are showing me things that I grew up on. Thanks for the good memories.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@augustrush7538]

Over 80 years,( All them storms.). I admire the man!

[@rayrayadkins6178]

I really enjoyed watching everything on this. Take me back a couple of years in my time.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad to hear it!

[@bluenetmarketing]

@@theappalachianchannel You've all missed something! The young people of today no longer give a damn about the past, its antiques, or its old cars. Haven't you heard that the only things the little snots care about today is their cell phones (digital pacifiers), electric cars (powered by coal), and climate change (a commie hoax)? WAKE UP!!!

[@MarkWYoung-ky4uc]

Mr. Wayniee has quite the collection. I liked the 49 Chevrolet pickup most of all. He reminds me of someone the American Pickers once visited. They said he didn't need money, he needed stuff. I've seen him around Priddy's Store before. He seems like a nice fellow.

[@garyfriedrick9941]

Thank you so much for sharing this gentleman's tales and treasure.

[@dirttrackfanphotos]

Thank you Wayne for letting us see your collections. I really love your vehicles. Your 55 chevy is my favorite. Thank you John for the video. I saw it was an hour and a half long and I thought I would watch a little bit of it. I was entertained the next hour and a half.

[@shawnmeyer2788]

I love this. All the cars and the tour inside the house. This could have been a five hour video. So much to see. Thanks for the tour.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@milmil6594]

Pretty cool when an elderly gentleman like him can tell the history of America in the goods he has collected..Stuff he may never use but just be amused by holding them in his hand..Reminds me of my grandpa who had pretty much two of everything..If there came a time he needed something and he couldn't find it he would just go and buy another..He would ask me to help him now and then do simple jobs..They would turn into all day adventures as it wasn't about fixing anything.. it was more about spending time with someone who will listen and learn..That's what he was trying to fix..patience

[@dispatch444]

100 % correct. The sad thing is with these younger generations shun their elders and rarely listen to anything they have to say, or flat could care less to even spend time with them.

[@conradmorin1891]

I hope that this nice gentleman donates a lot of his antiques to a museem, so that future generations can appreciate his treasure of centuries ago. Thank You for sharing him and his treasures with us.

[@RamblinAround]

Man, that '55 is a beauty! That rear engine mower at 1:22:40....those are bad about flipping over on people, like he said. I was riding my bike one afternoon and when I rounded the corner, I saw one of those mowers flipped over on top of an elderly lady with smoke billowing out of it. I ran over and lifted it off of her and helped her to her picnic table. She was pretty shaken up, but luckily she was ok for the most part. She had run into a small tree and the mower just kept going forward, climbing the tree until it flipped. It was nice of Wayniee to show you around. Great video!

[@hughclark4220]

Great ! Thank you for taking the time to share all that stuff with us , and thanks to Wayne for letting you , he is a fit 84 year old . I live in the north of Scotland , It reminded me of visiting my great grandmother and family , as I loved going through their old stuff .

[@redrebels24]

The impala convertible would look AWESOME back on the road! Very cool

[@theappalachianchannel]

I think so too!

[@vermontking9060]

I have been watching your videos for a while now and you have some fine content. I enjoy learning about Appalachian way of life.The people seem to be down to earth and must be pleasure to hold a conversation with. Thank you

Thanks for watching!

[@the7tongardengnome]

Thanks for this amazing video. So much history, memories. Just makes ya wonder what's gonna become of all that stuff. Be sad to see it all go. Hope he has someone to take care of him later and his place.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@realnikonlover6207]

Individuals like this are just that, hearty individuals. He is still light on his feet and quick of wit. You hope that his days will be continued but his journey at the end will be pain free. Bless this man.

[@LuckysMotorcycles]

I guarantee that an old farmer like this can predict the weather better than any government weather bureau.

[@richardwagers7546]

I be m

[@rickreese5794]

Absolutely Right 😊

[@kendexter]

it was back in the days but now the weather shifts oddly and faster. the native sami here in Northern Norway could tell the weather and many farmers as well but now a lot of the old weather signs don`t always add up nowadays

[@djx-tec4580]

The government is controlling most of the weather im thinking😮😂👍

[@terrybeyer4239]

Most enjoyable video I've seen. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

[@vlgrock8066]
