Just wanted to hug that sweet lady when she was talking about her husband and their memories. When an old person passes, a whole lifetime of knowledge and experience passes with them. Thanks for taking us along.

[@FordEra]

your welcome

[@jaredavery6569]

That’s a fine archive of classic fords! Hopefully the lot of them are salvaged & repurposed. Love it!

[@denniscasey986]

What a treasure trove.

[@superczech69]

It's neat to see places like that still exist. So much to take in.

[@FordEra]

Absolutely right

[@littlefarmer32]

It’s always cool when we get to roam the farmsteads with the trucks parked. I’m still looking for a vintage 66- 77 FORD Bronco

[@FordEra]

keep hunting

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Very cool, great vid.................. 👍👍👍

[@laurohinojosa2968]

65 short box I want one of them!! Cool of a cool truck.

[@frankm8533]

Thats definitely a cool old place

[@OfficialStumpMan]

That blue two tone was the exact same as my 77 350 camper special I had. Makes me miss that truck. I called it Hoss.

[@c7d3p]

Wow! Tons of nice slicks and she got the stories to go with them. Very cool visit.

[@FordEra]

Yes indeed!

[@danderson9881]

Alot of short boxes, very nice! Hopefully all that iron gets a good home and not just crushed.

[@edsel6818]

Wow the original owner of this yard had quite a bit older ford vehicles, nice, I'm looking for 58 Mercury's or 58 EDSELS, what a cool video you made, more please. 🇺🇲😉👍😁

Be sure to stay in touch with the family. You be more likely to hear when they decide to clean the place out.

[@FordEra]

Most definitely

[@ktaunton2769]

Y'all best not hold your breath waiting on that cleanout 😂 We're pretty attached to our junk!

[@Lampsonfabworks]

@@ktaunton2769 can’t say I wasn’t looking to see if I could find a way to contact and find a project to build. Happy to see the family loves the collection as much as the collector did! Hope my kids feel the same some day!

I really liked the truck with the 427 side oil in it

This is so amazing! Ain’t going lie, I cry a lil bring back old memories with my grandparent’s & uncle Henry! I know my uncle Henry is smiling in heaven right now! ❤️

[@offhandacoustic]

I have 4 acres I bought last year just waiting to have bullnoses everywhere. I would take every one of them in this video if I could. Gotta get my back healed (ruptured discs in my L3 and L4) and then its on. Thanks for sharing this man, best sub on youtube in awhile. Love these old Fords.

[@michaelwilbur4320]

I love bullnose ford's I bought a 1980 f100 back in 1980

[@offhandacoustic]

@@michaelwilbur4320 I have an 85 short bed that was my Dad's. It caught fire Christmas day in 96 so we put the cab off my Grandpa's 81 ranger on it and me and Grandpa rebuilt the motor. I drove my truck my senior year of highschool until the trans went out and it has sat for the past 20 years. It is sitting in pieces in my garage waiting for my back to heal. Four generations have turned wrenches on my truck.

[@danielfouardlibertarianono8017]

I have an 88 brick nose F250 4×4 7.3 IDI 5 speed 4:10 gears nasty 33×11.50 mud tires lifted 2" home made radius arm traction bars extended cab flatbed with 2 1/2" chrome stacks brown on tan w nearly perfect interior. The dual mass clutch went out in it around 5-6 years ago. I have a new flywheel clutch and pressure plate. I just have to get it installed. And I need a Dana Spicer rear-end bad. The junk Ford rear-end is a piece. The yolk slips on the pinion shaft and I had to shim the U joint. And the carrier bearing is effed in the A. Other than that stuff the truck is just awesome. I've dragged so much crap and vehicles through the mud. It's a beast. But it don't go much past 65-70 mph before the governor kicks in. But it bellers two fat columns of black smoke 40 feet in the air while racking your eardrums at 65. It still can't out pipe my old 4door with the 6.9 though. GOD bless you and may he bring healing to your back brother!

[@stephenpatterson4802]

Just what I was thinking, there is so many parts and vehicles I would love to have. What a cool place to live.

[@Torpedomtb]

Man nice walk through buddy.

[@FordEra]

Glad you enjoyed

[@glenncrockett4451]

Wish we had Junkyards like this around here, my 86 F150 would be easy to finish on the cheap, doors, fenders and just about everything else I would need is in that yard.

[@FordEra]

me too this one is about 10 hours from home for me

[@offhandacoustic]

Find a yard and take a trip one day. Even if you drive 5 hours each way, you'll save so much versus buying piece by piece new or used online. I'm planning on making my 4 acres a little bullnose yard. Have a junkyard less then a mile from my place, but I hurt my back last year and haven't been able to do anything. I have an 81shortbed I drove in highschool 20+ years ago sitting in pieces in my garage.

[@lariat8653]

Nice to see some more Bullnose fans out there. I’ve owned and garaged a 86 short bed for 22 years now. My son is restoring his grandparents 80 short bed and hoping to finish it before the end of the summer.

[@offhandacoustic]

@@lariat8653 That is awesome. These old bullnoses are becoming more and more popular. My sons all want bullnoses too. My Dad bought mine in 93, cab caught fire Christmas day in 96 so we put the cab off my Grandpa's 81 xlt lariat ranger on it. Dad gave me the truck in 99 and me and Grandpa rebuilt the motor and I drove it my senior year. It's been sitting since 2002 and was taken apart by my little brother. Me and my three sons are putting it back together. 4 generations have turned wrenches on that ole bullnose. Cool to see you and your your family loving these trucks too.

[@lariat8653]

@@offhandacoustic cool story and nice to see it’s been a family project for generations. Mine is a 86 XLT Lariat and my father in law gave his 80 F100 Custom Cab to my son just before he passed. He had owned it since the 80’s. My son bought a 84 for a parts truck the guy he got it from thought it was about to give up but he tinkered with it and rebuilt the carb and now it’s a great patina truck. He’s been restoring the 80 for 4 years now and is putting it back original.

[@sixtyfiveford]

Those license plate steps were originally made out of cast aluminum and only found on custom conversion vans of the late 80's-90's. I have a few I have scavenged over the years. Not easy to come by.

[@martinkpierce]

You guys are awesome. the combine has a two row corn picker on it if you wanted to know. Keep them coming

[@ktaunton2769]

It's very interesting to see my whole life through the eyes of someone else. The Junkyard is just our home. It was my childhood and now my children's and our everyday life. My Daddy's Legacy and one day, ours. You took the mundane and showcased it to be extraordinary. I absolutely LOVE this and I can tell you without a doubt that my Daddy ‐ aka Your Friend Henry - would've have been pure tickled with this video. I can just hear him telling everyone that stopped by to go check it out. He would've been so proud that someone else saw the same beauty he saw in his junk. Thank you for this. My family, and our Junkyard family will treasure it always! Come back and see us anytime.. and maybe buy a thing or two 😉 On another note.. there aren't any of our regulars that didn't hear the story of the crazy fool that climbed and got the tag down 😂😂 He told it often and laughed hard every time 😂😂

[@FordEra]

It was my absolute pleasure.

[@richardbates2367]

If got to say the green bullnose Ford dually missing the rear fenders would be a neat super duty fx4 4x4 power stroke 5spd swapped mid truck and trailer pullers for hauling your junk with lol

Thanks but we call them bumpside trucks. that is a fact of life

[@morgansword]

Was that my property.... only a rich rich man like Trump or something..... I would start at the very back carefully emptying all trash but miscellaneous parts would go in proper places, cut every tree an bush down and start organizing it in years and types. Power wash everything as well and get most of the rats and such out of them. All the trees big enough would be milled for truck a n car barns.... open beam so sunshine didn't hit down so hard on it or snow get on them. I really liked the open sides of some of those vans and might just carry on with the theme of it. Parts would get sorted out an some of the stuff so doubled up would be sold like good stainless thats so hard to find. Keep prices really low an sell as much as possible unless I found it going to wrecking yard.. then they would be banned permanently. I would drive a lot of it to exercise it and get kinks out. I would make testimonies to this mans credits as well. Everything would have a price within reason unless I took person fancy then it would be held a while.

[@fordpot4694]

Easier said then done. I have like 30 trucks. 15 runners and 15 for parts. I work on them all the time after work and weekends. And I still have stuff not organized.
