To everyone reading this statement , Live your Life for the moment . DO NOT worry about tomorrow as it may never come . I used to collect stereo equipment for over 40 years , And now I am not able to walk . Enjoy every moment as though it is your last . Life is a great gift !

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Well said Ray. We are given one life and it's up to us not to squander it

[@coffeefish]

I'm almost 60, and so far 100% of my tomorrows have come. I get what you are trying to say, but it's not really the whole story.

[@TwoDollarGararge]

Yeah these videos help me mentally justify and visualize that I need to keep selling cars and other stuff I don't need so much crap.

[@truthboomertruthbomber5125]

I’m clearing out the mechanic / fabricator / machinist/gunsmith part of my life. I’m early 70s and having recurring health issues. Time to think about my heirs for the second time in my life. I’m definitely enjoying my new Nissan Z !

[@NwaboschJennifer]

@twodollarGararge it's really my pleasure being friends with you here 👋

[@Ron-io3vu]

Thanks for your dedication to doing these vids for us, and for showing the motorcycles.

[@bretbarnes2224]

Really appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. Im not able to travel and walk those distances any more. Thanks to you i can still enjoy seeing this stuff even tho it may not have much monetary value.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Thanks for stopping by the channel Bret! And thank you for your kind words

2:00 “That hit home.“ In 1995 a car magazine had a 55 Chevy on the cover with the caption “Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 55 Chevy!” That beautifully restored car looked brand new. It was at that point I realized these objects of our devotion and affection will outlive all of us.

[@karensavarese5684]

These old junkyards, man, everything sat outside for so long.,,,,, Your opening comments sound realistic. I am of the age,, seen many friends "collections" ending up with their heirs to deal with. Nothing good has come of those yet. Some of the collections were good, but, nobody thinks yer stuff is as good / cool as you do.,,,Love D

[@coffeefish]

Sell the collection when you still can. I know what kind of challenges that the death of a parent can bring. Put your affairs in order before it's too late.

You'll get to see that in the next video... a little different than usual... stay tuned for Part Two!

[@larryok8156]

At least all the stuff in your videos are auctioned off and the rest of the junk get scrapped. I hope the steel stays here since most of the old stuff was the good stuff. Safe travels...

[@dankreoger611]

My wife and I had 3 Celebrity's. 2 sedans and 1 wagon. Lot of miles on them. Kid proof.

[@mikesawyer4707]

In 1965, the Caprice was a option package. By the 1966 model year it became a model. They were very highly optioned mom and pop cars. My dad was a chevy guy. Just sharing.

[@itlodot]

“I definitely drove too far!😂😂😂😂 I know what that’s like!

Awesome. Thanks for the video.

Cool old vehicles.

[@topekasub]

I love your comments on the Dodge wagon!😂

[@squablow]

If these were all still in a working yard, I see some good parts I'd like to pull and buy. But not much that I'd want to drag home whole. The plum crazy 340 Demon was super cool to see, even if it's incredibly rough. I also would have loved a peek inside the aluminum camper that was on that squarebody, just to see what the inside looked like.

[@NM-eb5ej]

I had a collection of triumph, BSA motorcycles 35 years of collecting equaling to about 47 motorcycles, a 20 foot connex box with 60 or so motors and thousands and thousands of parts. Kept a 1959 tiger cub all original with 649 miles on it and the first Triumph I purchased ,1971 650 tiger I got that in 1982. Do miss the stuff at all!

[@liljoeii6091]

Hope you was able to find something to bring back home with you thank you for the video

[@topekasub]

The shaggy van was cool!

[@jeffsmith846]

I lived in Missouri for 30+ years. There are virtually no decent old cars. Half the people in the state live on gravel roads which slowly degrades the cars underneath as it builds up dirt and mud and holds moisture. , Nearly the entire state uses salt on the roads in the winter. The summers are hot and humid and destroy interiors. The Winters are bad and the extreme temps crack the dashes along with the summer heat.

[@NwaboschJennifer]

@jeffsmith846 it's really my pleasure being friends with you here 👋

[@randywineinger779]

Remember tomorrow is promised to nobody. Eat the donut, go to the swap meet, travel to that vacation spot. What does it really matter, enjoy this ride called life, you only have 1 ride ticket.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

[@coffeefish]

Good advice if the only goal in life is to live for you're own pleasure. It's not uncommon for people to live a life to the purpose of larger goals. Hedonism gets boring.

[@danielmorgan4899]

The '63 GMC truck with Sassatelli distributing on its door is from my hometown in Illinois . How it ended up in Missouri is interesting.

[@GlenSeymour]

That brush mower at the end could be used for a horror movie!

[@hippielogger1090]

That gas tank and seat on the Honda might have value as it didn't sit outside and fade away, like all other old Japanese bikes.

[@stevebeck57]

I’ve always said that, the rest of my family have no interest in my stuff. I can tell you what I have and why I saved it. When I’m gone somebody can get a number from the auctioneer and move it to a new home.🤷🏼‍♂️♥️👍🏼

[@Freedomquest08]

Pretty sure the '73 Honda at 49:00 is a 250 Elsinore. Many years ago I had one that looked like this one. Compared to newer dirt bikes that old Honda was like riding a bull.

[@raymondcollyear4773]

My little brother had one of those back in the mid 70's. We both learned to ride a Yamdog 65 . Then mom and dad bought him the Honda. He rode the dog sh*t out of that bike. The little 65 rode the dog curd out of me😂.

[@bobdoingbobthings]

That 340 Demon may have belonged to my dad, once upon a time. He had one the same color when I was a little kid in the 1970s. We lived in Poplar Bluff, Missouri back then. There couldn't have been many of those cars. What are the odds there were 2 of them, the same color in the same state?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Rare car, and a neat one... can you imagine if it had been put away in a shed instead of left to die in a field... but they were just old cars back then, regardless of whether they were rare high performance vehicles or just run of the mill.

[@richardmead9225]

Parts aren't used, they're seasoned...an auctioneer told me.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

They have experience

[@Steverinomeister]

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It was billed that way on the sale flyer. Nice to see that they did give one shot for people to bid for parts one last time. In most cases these old yards are wiped clean without a second thought

[@michaelclark7037]

Great Video as always but you should have snagged the Karmann Ghia in the back row.

[@rodneybalog4605]

By the time you get 50 there will be nothing left I'd say next 5 years everything will be gone or soon my friend

[@bobfrancis2573]

GM had a 500 cfm 2GC that they used on 455`s.

[@jamesthompson8008]

@bobfrancis2573 That's what I was thinking too. I seem to remember seeing those in entry level Bonnevilles/Catalina in junkyards years ago.

[@leebongirno9670]

Missed out on a 66 caprice wagon like that color and all was a 396 with a 3 speed on the column. No rust either. But no running gear. Alas long gone. Did get 66 biscayne wagon 283 3 speed factory ac luggage rack tinted glass and no other options original paint.

[@larrywinemiller794]

those trunk racks on celebrities were sold at dealer auctions with a bunch of other add ons you could put on your auction cars when you bought lease and rental cars to doll them up to sell. Back in the late seventies and eighties some of the dealer auctions in mo. had wholesalers who would sell dozens of lease and rental cars dolled up to sell easier. Even their were cars with miles rolled off by crooked dealers.

[@James-r8y4o]

I knew that was a 73 Honda 😂

That ‘62 LeSabre in the woods is probably junk, but it’s more interesting (to me, at least) than almost all the crap that was brought out to sell.

Did you get a sale price for the Studebaker? What was the exact location for the sale? Any way to know who got the Baker?

My Dad passed away at 82. If you don't sell off the collection when you're alive, it becomes a huge problem for the family left behind. A massive waste of time and money for the heirs.

[@AlteredCarbons]

i'd be all over that rampage. funny enough. remember that cutlass that went for a lot of money from the last video. i found so many of them on copart in way better condition than that one for like 1k, plus 2k shipping to where im at on the east coast so prob hella cheaper if your in the mid west.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

I looked on Facebook Marketplace last week out of curiosity and there were TONS of Cutlass coupes within 200 miles of Wichita Kansas for $3k to $5k. Probably almost two dozen of them, many drivable or close to it

Hi, why were their pin hole in the dodge demon. I understand it’s been out in the elements.
