[@BruisersBeaters]

I have the utmost respect for how you do business. You actually give a dang, and legiately try to sell stuff complete instead of just cutting it up. If it doesn't sell you still make your money from scrapping, cutting the noses off. You're educated on what you're looking at and buying, and thats amazing, I'm learning all kinds of things off you.

[@richellen6855]

I guess I must be one of those real fans. I always stay to the end. I also do NOT mind your 'rambling'. The reason you are a great KZbinr is that you are a real character with lots of energy and drive and good common sense and love to tell stories. You are a pleasure to watch, and all your true fans love to Ride-along-with-Silas! Plus, you make very satisfying, creative, and well put together videos. Of all the things you picked up on this auction, I am most drawn to the green enameled light shades. I have some of those and just really dig them.

[@pazzazz1]

I really enjoy these auction videos! Well done. Would sure love those flat green metal shades, dang!

[@lsnowy7758]

I'M A REAL FAN as I watch you ramble on till the end!

[@JohnShinn1960]

I'M A REAL FAN because he told me something I already knew long ago.

[@christophertaylor2464]

When he said he was ramble on and only a real fan was watching I started laughing I guess I am a real fan I like watching anything he does.

[@squablow]

Even $100 for that Schwinn tank bike is a bargain for the guy buying it from you. I much prefer to see this kind of stuff, with things being saved and resold, than seeing stuff get crushed. This was a good one.

[@daewooparts]

I love seeing stuff crushed, but also saved as well

[@jacksonfreeland2177]

Agreed, the auction and property clean outs are the best content Silas makes. Although I don't deal with auto stuff, I've been a treasure hunter/reseller for a while. Hell eBay helped me get through the first year of Covid when the restaurant I n as managed closed and I decided to say fuck restaurants after nearly 25 years. Wanted a skilled trade that I enjoy so started welding school at a community college. With all the Federal money going around, my state is basically paying me to go to school. Graduate this winter and it's looking like I may a connect to get an apprenticeship with the local Boilermakers union. Unfortunately, at this point my spare bedroom and home shop are about as crowded as Silas' salvage yard. Just mentioned to a friend the other day I wish I could hire someone to come list all my stuff on eBay because when I started school I didn't stop buying stuff to resell... Rambling like he was at the end of this video so I'll shut up. Keep finding your adventures Silas cause it's damn entertaining!

[@rt3box6tx74]

Crush plastic, save metal! =)

[@robertvannicolo4435]

Great video i to love auctions needed a door for my 96 f350 ended up buying 8 of them for 10 to 15 each at the last auction bought a 275 gal tote of magnesium chloride deicer for 50 it sells from distributor for 900 deals are out there keep it up

[@plainbrownwrapper9688]

Those Ford valve covers are for Ford Essex 3.1 V6 engine. They are for the british Fords (think of 70's Ford Capri)

[@Dave_9547]

I suspect the guys at Lucore Automotive in Ohio might be interested in those valve covers. They have been working on some Capri performance cars.

[@scottcochran384]

Silas.. please look up that wood top wicker picnic basket.. I sold one like it at Auction and got 100.00 for it.. People are crazy about the wooden top ones..

[@JohnShinn1960]

19:29 "Am I gonna be on KZbin again?" 😆 Yes.

[@johnm.5848]

For a vintage car that's clean and in really good shape, I thought the bidding on the white Cutlass would be insane but no sale. Overall Silas, you brought home a good haul.

[@martinc591]

Silas giving away all the secrets of the junk business 😂

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

People won’t put in the effort anyway 😆

[@williambeahm2574]

Those vintage hubcaps are awesome. You don't see a lot of hubcaps like that DeSoto one.

[@rt3box6tx74]

My parents drove DeSotos until they went obsolete, but I don't remember that hubcap.

[@williambeahm2574]

I'm trying to get someone I know sell me their 1954 DeSoto , It has a hemi under the hood. The only issue is a title. The owners are having trouble getting a replacement one. I want just to put in parades once I get it and get it running again.

[@rt3box6tx74]

@williambeahm2574 What year did they start putting that hemi in the DeSotos? I believe my parents had a 1951, a 1955, and I remember the 1959. It was coral color, 4-door hardtop and had tail light fins. I have pics of it. The "55 was a medium brown color. Those cars were built like a tank up until the 1959. It had an awful lot of glass compared to the earlier models.

[@NickFortier]

Silas, i used to be a wheeler dealer as a kid too. Im a carpenter now, now i hustle my skills. People call me now, much easier:)

[@mikeleach4201]

As I said when you were just starting on KZbin, you are a natural born Teacher. Thank you so very much.

[@lelandritchie9989]

i like the sign u are keeping.i really like watching u in action go getem.

[@michaelschuenemann3505]

[@Awsom47Merc]

* Heathkit Tube Checker. That brought back memories. Heathkit products were kits you had to assemble yourself. Solder all the transistors to the board along with everything else. My dad made a few kits when I was a kid in the 60s. A stereo, and intercom system, and a ham radio. 👊😎👍

[@robertmoss9468]

I always watch your videos until the end as the advice you give is priceless Silas 👍🏻

[@iamelcapitan]

That husky nozzle usually runs over $100 new thru a dealer. It’s awesome that you sold those valve covers quick for full price.

[@raymondcollyear4773]

You remind me of myself, I go to auctions not going to buy anything are not much and end up buying more then I planned. Great video

[@aliceevans3357]

I always laugh when Silas says he's not going to buy much, we know how that's going to go! 😉😄

[@tomrowe7534]

The valve covers could be from a Mercury Capri, the European version from the 70’s

[@bulletsonofagun7413]

Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us.I have much envy of your life choice. 100% must watch !

[@garysimonson9593]

It's easy to get caught up in the bidding at an auction. You're good at keeping your bids in perspective.

[@JeanMorisset-ii7hs]

That picnic basket was nice.

[@gilnorton1]

What a great video. Enjoyed even the rambling, just like a regular conversation. Favorite items were the yard sticks. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Peace

[@Chr.U.Cas2216]

Dear Mr. Silas. 👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! Great purchases. Congratulations 🎉 I really liked a lot of those items. Thanks a lot for bringing me with you. Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.

[@timothylong68]

Already subscribed but love auction videos. And your not rambling, explaining the process. Enjoyed your video, thank you

[@lugnutt66]

You're a smart guy, put together a work shop. Grab a cooler off of one of those refer trailers and stay cool. Or hook it to your garage. Take the wife on a picnic🙂 Awesome haul. Lots of good stuff. I wish I had time for that😎

[@josephmelson7591]

Fav item's of mine you bought was the picnic basket,the van ,and the little toy horse trailer..

[@grumpybear5305]

Large picnic baskets are hard to find offer it for 15 plus shipping..probly go fast.

[@cfar6256]

I love all the auctioneers different styles! Brings back so many great memories of my youth, growing up in KS and attending these auctions every summer with my great grandparents. Thanks for sharing! Are you not doing your jack-o'-lanterns anymore ? Such a cool idea!

[@dwaynefowler7093]

i like the way you put mine& not mine and the prices thank you for doing that

[@claytondewey3367]

Great auction video. Fun seeing what was available. The hubcaps are my favorite. 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@scottyparker2534]

Silas I live at Georgia and I really love your videos. I'll watch them every time I can catch one, I love your honesty and you never change you're always the same. It would be a pleasure to meet you sometime. And I really do appreciate your video sir, I would really love to have that Cutless A fine car, God bless you and your family, I know it's tedious but keep up the good videos really enjoy.

[@jimchevy4134]

All the hubcaps are Kool thanks for sharing with us and letting us know about your experience with eBay

[@kevinrylance7861]

In the middle 80's me and my brothers helped Dad flip house's, apartment, ect... We would find all kinds of good stuff and Trash Once a month go to the flea market and make Bank $$$ Like you said you have to keep it Rolling 👍

[@boogerhooks]

Looks like you got $300 for the valve covers. That's not too shabby

[@thepilothouse1]

Another great auction video! Favorite item was the Raleigh bike. Did one similarly about 30 yrs ago-bought it for $10 and sold it for $250 after putting new tires on it and cleaning it up. Keep the yard videos comig-we don't see stuff as nice as you find here in upstate NY. Was hoping you'd get the first F600, but glad you didn't get the Chevy!

[@dancerjim]

You bought something unexpected? There’s a news flash!

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

😆 I guess that could be the title of every auction video that I go to.

[@ronaldhope8939]

Great content. You never know what your going to post and that is why I keep watching your videos. Outstanding job.

[@charleshaggard4341]

At 21:55 I had a 77 Olds Cutlass but was a different color I bought new. Notice those pillow seats. Great video.

[@mandymoo7406]

FAVOURITE THING? that racing bike,it looks the same as the one i had in 1975 and i left it with my brother,never to be seen again,it was all ali and you could easily lift it with one hand

[@jeffclark2725]

Really enjoy these farm auctions, they overwelm me 5 minutes into them,thumbs up great video

[@JeanMorisset-ii7hs]

Thanks for the advice 😊

[@scrapnjunk81]

My favourite item was that koler engine for $2.50. I love auction and I scrap to make money. I have a KZbin channel as well. Great video

[@sphillips6357]

I really enjoy these well-done video auctions, thank you. Because I can no longer drive due to physical injury, I don't get to many such auctions or yard sales. Many years ago what got me started was a major auction in Southern Calif. Hundreds of cars, trucks and pallets of equipment. The few trucks I researched went for more than I could buy them for through the newspaper. But what caught my attention was the sale of big, dirty Mack city trash trucks. Almost a dozen were offered and only one person was buying everyone at $1500 each. Later I asked him what does he want with a bunch of big trash trucks. He said he cleans them up and converts them into big construction-site type dump trucks and sells them for 25k to $50k each.

[@randysinger2673]

Love the Auction Video's, Hope you do more and Thank you

[@peterunderdown4374]

Always enjoy the rambling,the proof is in the pudding.

[@thepropmachines1042]

just saw ur video yesterday for the first time ,subscribed ,and watched ur vids for 4 hours since yesterday, i absolutely am loving what you do. simple and care free whatever happens .happens.

[@modoc852]

My favorite thing you bought at the auction was your lunch! 😊

[@paul36uk]

Fantastic result, you always find the best sales, so interesting

[@darrellsaunders4267]

Everytime Silas says he's not gonna buy much....

[@aliceevans3357]

Gosh I love auctions! There was a time when I had money I went to them. The auctioneers knew me and knew I was good for it. Sometimes auctioneers will take one person's bid over another. They also have an idea what's good or not. If the items weren't good they wouldn't take my bid. I bought a lot of great stuff dirt cheap, those were the days. Sure brings back memories. Man I wouldn't have given 85 bucks for that paddle boat, lol It's surprising what prices are at auctions for stuff. Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe and GOD bless

[@phillipdickinson8557]

Great buys Salis enjoyed the auction lot of neat stuff

[@urbanurchin5930]

OUCH !! Those wooden yardsticks are what my Mom used to whip my brothers and me with when we were little kids. Until she broke one on my brother.....then we started to get the belt ! ......yes, the "good old days"......

[@JohnShinn1960]

Nice loot! Stayin tuned Silas! 🤠👍

[@samthompson1080]

When my grandparents were alive. I loved going to the auction in Kansas.

[@bobtucker8875]

Great 👍 content 😌. Thanks for sharing.

[@TruckFan542]

Very nice content. Those valve covers are sweet pieces.

[@bumpside6772]

thanks for your adventure

[@stuartfletcher2378]

Well Silas you did good at the auction , the things you baught will surely bring you a good profit . I love auctions , but its more fun watching other people spend than doing it myself . Thank you for the video , till next time , take care and be well . Start in Canada ..

[@donaldmiller9648]

I had a 1976 Buick Regal Sport with T-Tops and similar exterior and interior to that Cutlass....brought back good memories of that period. Lots stuff at that auction.

[@ismaelcruz3315]

Thank you, I enjoy this, I suck when it comes to selling stuff. But I am willing to give it a try. God bless!

[@fartsackjack7081]

GREAT SCORE SILAS .....love it

[@davidnorth3411]

Good one , I think the light shades, those will be around 500 years .

[@brucejohnson1712]

I would love to do what you do in these videos. I see so many things that I cringe at the low price they go for. Unfortunately I would keep most of it. And that is why I am happy watching your videos form my chair. I love your videos keep them coming.

[@lenmorgan1755]

I love your auction videos! I would have bought that Hodaka cycle in the beginning! My brother and I used to buy tons of stuff at auctions and fix and flip.

[@MrWoodfiddler]

Silas - one of my favorites was that picnic basket! Then the Ford V8 hubcap. The real fun is seeing the stuff, and you buying it! lol Chuck in NE Kansas

[@dennisjones1642]

Hi from here in the D Michigan hey the motor city 😊 thanks for your time and video of the Auction I saw some interesting things 😊

[@josephmelson7591]

Awesome awesome score on the van as well ..

[@stevepops4450]

I checked through all the comments re the stylised L hubcap you wanted info on. I saw LaSalle 3 times and a Lincoln. Both wrong. Its a Lafayette (Nash/Kelvinator Co). I have a skin the same that had a rotten steel inner. Cheers. You and Mr Goodpliers nail it on Auction coverage. Great state Kansas

[@johnkranz4004]

Nice Buying Silas

[@dave-uf8ir]

Good score on smalls u go silas cheers 🥂 😊

[@johnboydTx]

The L hubcap is unusual and great styling 😉. Polish it and hang it on the wall 👍 ... Fine Art ... ✌️🤠

[@josephacerra5987]

Thanks for sharing 💯

[@Alpentripp1]

Keep on rambling!! Like it!

[@darrellsaunders4267]

2:15....that basket is what is used to pick up golf balls at a driving range.

[@rickijimenez2386]

That basket the wicker looking one that opens on each side looks like the one to witch put Toto in on the Wizard of Oz ! It be cool on the back of an old bicycle !

[@Justanoldwoman9748]

I always watch til the end cause you are very knowledgeable about stuff 😊

[@htahana3461]

This was awesome love these sought of auctions ,you did alright on that van thats for sure.

[@anvil49]

Would have loved to see how much the Anvils went for. Great vid as usual Silas!!

[@rt3box6tx74]

=) It pains me to see anvils at auction. After my dad passed his was lifted from his wide open barn. His initials were on top. I can never stop looking at the top of every anvil. Somebody ground off his initials and sold it along with his janky old 1950 welder.

[@rescueinoldraggedy7407]

i enjoy auctions , i like the old hub caps , see you on the next one my friend , be safe

[@benroosa2328]

Appreciate the advice I've been thinking about selling on eBay for a while

[@GwynnOak1]

That old Austin was a total steal! Amazing the regional differences in auctions. Another great video! My fave? That engine for $2.50, pure moneymaker.

[@AdventuresMadeFromScratch]

It took me over a month to get $60 for it so not as good as I expected to be honest.

[@josephmelson7591]

Awesome awesome video here we use real nice picnic baskets like that to transport old English chickens to shows and to take are pigeons out to exercise them that's eysey 10-20$ bill here.

[@davidbarnsley8486]

So much stuff 😮

[@user-zb8oj3cc6o]

Love the video pal . I liked the (wheel trims ( english name for hub caps ) from different models of cars my dad collected there for years . Had 100 of them .. very interesting finds . . Keep up the good work.

[@farmerk14]

The best part “am I gonna be on KZbin again”. 🤣🤣🤣

[@EllaWalls-ij6cq]

Auctions are fun that picnic basket with the hub caps ….believe it or not is very hard to find in that good of a condition….$30-$40..

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Very cool one thanks 👍👍👍😊

[@hussamal-takriti8792]

I, like the VAN most 😊

[@getonlygotonly]

magnetos are crazy money when you need one. a j4 or i4 is like $400 for a rebuild and brinkman has lots of new parts available but they aint cheap either

[@douglasmodelgaragesvideo]

Good advice

[@micksoa.k.885]

That $2.50 motor is a great score...

[@mackmcmillan9905]

I guess I'm a real fan, then! Sweet.

[@jamespn]

The van for $500 was a good buy, too bad you didn’t score the cutlass supreme.

[@charlesstarlin6354]

Awesome always cool stuff always thanks 😎

[@nealterry5]

Love the auction videos.

[@mikeembrey9176]

Great video 👍🏻🇺🇸

[@carlgruver695]
