He Ran a Used Car Lot for DECADES, but stashed 8 special ones in a barn: Fuz's Nebraska Collection!

Mr. Goodpliers walks around a collection of 1920s to 60s cars in Nebraska! Check out these 8 special vehicles that "Fuz" Morris stashed away in a barn during the years he ran a used car lot! Watch the auction action, then stick around for the Recaps!

I'm not a huge fan of most 4 door's but for $8k that 56 chevy being so original is a sweet deal

[@freedomforever6718]

Good for the original family to hold on to the '56 Chevy.

When I was 17 I bought a near new 56 chevy belair in exactly the same colour . The only difference was mine was right hand drive. ❤❤❤❤ My family had a 32 Chevy also, a Confederate Coupe ,which today still only has 14,000 miles on it.

The Cadillac appears to be a '63 with a '64 grille or front clip. Straight rear bumper ends are the giveaway.

I was just going to post the same thing.

[@johncocktoasten9228]

Also the front turn signals and the painted metal bar along the front grill. I have never seen any documentation about a 63 1/2. Dont remember a strike between 63 - 64.

Most of them were pretty much given away. I thought the 56 Chevy would go way higher. The Cadillac had such a nice interior that would cost a fortune to replace if needed.

Seeing a collection of pre war year cars kinda points what age bracket of the owner. They were the collectable cars to have at one point. Now not so much.

My Uncle use to take me to school when I was in the 1st grade around 1965 in a black 60 Corvair like that one.

[@beatglauser9444]

I was kind of shocked seeing how incredibly low the Corvair sold for. I am restoring a 64 Monza 900 for years. I really got it dirt cheap but it seems an endless project. Seeing the ridiculously low value of those cars I know it was mistake starting this project. The 56 Chevy and the 51 Ford were great purchases as well.

[@att61y]

Wow that Corvair was a bargain!

[@ernielaw]

One of the cars which I liked

[@tturtle1659]

The Comet - as indicated by the column shifter - also has either a 4sp conversion or an aftermarket floor shifter for the original 3sp box. Could have also been a 260 originally, swapping for a 289 once the 260 popped it was a thing back then (my 64 had the conversion - not that I'm complaining!). Oh and yes they are closely related to the Mustang but there are some significant differences which can make getting parts a hassle (as me how I know)...

[@IEchuckie]

I think the 260 was gone by this time. The 289 came into use by 65.

[@donaldpiper9763]

@@IEchuckie- It’s a 64 the 260 was the base V8 in them same as Ford Falcon they went down the same assembly line in Kansas City. The 289 came in in 64 and a half as an option.

[@tturtle1659]

@@IEchuckie nope, as the poster before me stated, the 260 was base V8 in 64. I decoded my VIN and that's what my car had when it left the Ford/Mercury factory in LA! Mine also had the 3 on the tree but I converted into a 5sp although I removed the column shifter because it looked silly to me to have two shifters...

63 Cadillac with a 64 front clip.

[@ernielaw]

The best buys at the show were the 1960 Corvair and the 1951 Ford. I was surprised that the '56 Belair sold for less than the Comet or the Cadillac. I wonder if the buyer knew that the '63 Cadillac had the front end of a '64, that would take something away from its value.

[@daviddavis4444]

My Parents had the 56 Bel Air with the Power Pak I barely remember it early 60's we made many trips down just part of I-40 usually got off onto old Hwy 64 in Conway Ar to go to Dad's family every weekend. Green and White Dad and his brothers rebuilt the transmission once in their Shop they had together.

That Cadillac has a 63 rear and 64 front.

[@josephnason8770]

Correct.

[@ernielaw]

It was repaired with '64 parts.

[@martydavies7198]

A sentimental auction. Everyone held off bidding on the best two value for money cars because the family's were bidding. That would have annoyed some potential punters.

Still pretty cheap prices. 4 doors bring less, but when you look at what people are asking these days for absolute junk or Bondo 'restorations', these prices are outstanding.

[@williamdeegan7840]

The Cadillac conv. is a 64, not a 63, like the auctioneer said. 64 had the body colored piece in on the grill going across. 63 didn't.

[@josephnason8770]

Correct. And the 64 had tail light housings that came to a point unlike this caddy which are vertical.

[@ernielaw]

Here we have a 1963 Cadillac which has likely been repaired with 1964 parts on the front. One can tell from the rear that its a 1963, as '63 had different taillights and bumper.

[@johnleerichardson6220]

According to Bloomberg News the corvair would have been a good investment take care

[@ernielaw]

One lucky buyer!

[@charleshaggard4341]

My Dad worked at a Chevy dealership from 49-69 and on "show day" in 1960 they had a Corvair just like this one and Chevrolet Motor Division furnished(I'm sure the dealer paid for it) a plexiglass rear engine hood where you could see the motor when it was shut. The man that was the dealer died in in his office in 1969 and when they were getting rid of everything, this clear plexiglass hood was found up in the ceiling and taken to the city dump with old fenders and tons of old, obsolete parts.

[@morgansword]

Money is money and you don't have a ton of it yet. I think I would of bought the 56 chevy at that price as its just clean enough to polish and flip for a easy ten or maybe fifteen G profit. I say this cause they will most likely do it as well. Sometimes Tim, your just too nice a guy. Not a bad thing and I would of liked to be known like that

[@IEchuckie]

[@jeffsmith846]

The 56 Chevy had some good looking paint and interior. Still a 4 door sedan not a 4 door hardtop. Also likely to need fuel tank and lines and gas pump replaced or cleaned. Brakes would need a complete going through. Would need tires and possibly exhaust. Simple under the hood but would likely need work from sitting for so long. Also salted road country so what condition is the frame? I have bought a half dozen cars that came from salt areas and also had been sitting. Although I did all of the work myself I can tell you that this 56 may not have been the flippers dream that some of you believe. Unless you plan on parking it in the garage not caring about driving it and just looking at it which is OK too.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It still had a long way to go from driving 100 feet in and out of the shed, to seeing the road. The mechanic had it on the lift, and inspected it - every inch of the underside of body and frame were rust free.

[@brianandrews7099]

Old cars at auction are a complete waste of time if your looking for a rock bottom bargain deal. People are too competitive and willing to overpay. The only real winner at an auction is the auction company.

[@409adamc9]

That 56 Chevy 4 door was a good deal even at $8000. That car will do nothing but go up in value and I believe they underpaid in todays market.

[@johncocktoasten9228]

Wait a minute! That Deville Convertible has a 64 front end but a 63 rear. What's going on here?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Whoa I missed that. Possibly the front clip was swapped? I thought it strange that the auctioneer called it a 63, but it makes sense. Thanks for pointing this out John!

[@TwoDollarGararge]

It was probably hit when it was just a cheap used car and down to the front end that happened to be at a junkyard

[@ernielaw]

That was something I didn't notice immediately. Hope the bidders were informed. Wonder if the auctioneer knew about it.

[@ianburit3705]

Hiya, that Corvair has lovers in Matts offroad recovery fames family, did he know the Corvair was for sale?

[@stuartkline1611]

Doesn't seem to have been highly advertised before the event, kinda unfortunate, Tim. The Comet could've brought 15 K, the Caddy, over 20 K in that condition...

[@ernielaw]

Somewhat less for the Caddy. See other comments about its front clip.

[@XGarage-nj2uf]

All cars went pretty cheap. Dealer flip specials.

[@josephnason8770]

That 64 caddy looks like it has 63 fins and a 63 rear bumper. Or its a 63 with a 64 front end. Or is it a 63 1/2? I am confused. I had a 63. 64 fins were shorter. Somebody help me!!!

[@ernielaw]

It is a '63 Caddy with a '64 front clip. I guess it must have been involved in a collision at some point.

[@scottysgarage4393]

The Cadillac has MAJOR issues. That's a 1964 doghouse stuck on a 1963 body. Not sure if the car is a '63 that had the nose knocked off at some point, or if it's a rebodied 64, but it's definitely Frankensteined. Hopefully the former because if it's titled as a '64 someone pretty much threw their money away.

[@ernielaw]

I was slow to notice that. Maybe the auctioneer wasn't aware of it either. I sure hope the buyer was informed before bidding!

[@davidnewelljr1944]

Nothing from nothing, but do you ever find any Essex , complete or parts ?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

This one was definitely worked over in the past - there's been at least couple coats added over the years, over crusty edges and lumpy panels. At best it's a beater. It sold for around $3k on the auction. The tan car brought $8k a year ago, which was a smoking deal. It had a pristine, fresh restoration. I'm not sure where it ended up. The market is pretty soft for these cars - you can get a really good one for a very reasonable buy-in. They are constantly coming to market, so you can be choosy. Decide what you want - an early car, later car, open body style, or closed. Your best bet will be to get on Facebook and join the Model T Classifieds page, and the Model T Cars and Parts for Sale page. You can probably find something real decent reasonably close to your area of the country for under $10k
