Curiosity Inc in canada, also channel name did a video of a man who has a channel with his wife. They have one of the nicest collections of 58 chevy impalas. One is just like the american graffiti car Ron Howard drove in the movie.... he has also got a lot of great iron, old pickups and cars plus some hundred year era rigs.... like the all metal dodges from mid thirties. I know for a fact that if you see it or them, as his last video being a tour of this yard would put you hustling up for a look or buying many of them. I can only figure it was a glory hole of nice rigs in this area. My commission would be a honorable mention in your videos. I myself am seventy three and know cars and trucks well, have commented on this channel before.
