The update on the vehicles is cool, but what really impressed me was the fact the Dennis took the time to mention an employee retiring- and to take him to lunch of his choosing. .. You don't find bosses like the these days. Mr. Collins, you are a class act at it's finest.

I am fairly new to your channel, I have never seen the shop or anything going on, I have only seen you go to pick up the cars you find, I believe the first one I watched was when you got the cop car Javelin, it just great to see the work being done on such a high end scale, the attention to detail is just incredible, I also love that you are an original condition nut, they are only original one time, survivors are extreamly rare. I was born in the muscle car era, I am 60 years old, I had a low mileage 70 road runner when I was 20, I bought from a guy down the street, the first thing we did was pull the carb, yank off the intake, we put a purple Mopar cam, Edelbrock intake and a 750 Edelbrock carb on the 383, we through all the original parts out, never thought they would be worth a thing, nobody did, I bought a set of Cragars, the stock ralleys went to the junk yard, it was an original air grabber car, young and dumb go figure, I love that you are bringing everything you can find back to life, love the channel, from S.E. Michigan, where a lot of them were made.

Alex is the MAN! Dennis Ive gotta say as someone who spent most of my life in dealerships in Australia (over 10 years, been on my own for 15) that how you treat your people is OUTSTANDING. Nearly every DP I ever had to deal with, either as an Employee or Sub Contractor couldnt care less about anything or anyone but themselves. Thats why I LOVE your videos so much. You love what you do, youre great at it, and you treat everyone regardless of who they are the same. If only all Dealership owners and/or managers had your mindset... Big Love from Australia!

My dad an uncle bought a white 1988 ford f150 from a auction in Russell springs Kentucky back in 2001. He paid 900$ for it an it had a 428 cobra jet. Needless to say he sold that engine back in 01 for way more than they bought the truck for. The frame had been cut off right under the grill an it had a 1 ton rear end an sat about 3.5 feet off the ground at the rear bumper. We always thought some1 used it to do truck pulls. I remember riding down hwy 88 in green county doing about 60mph an he stompped it an shifted into 3rd an she got sideways an start roasting the tires. Thats the day i became a gear head at 11 years old. Thank god my father raised me proper!!!
