If it wasn't for Mr Goodpliers I'd be mowing my over grown lawn right about now. :::cracks beer::: Cheers 👍

[@672egalaxie6]

LOL!!!

[@brettjones4733]

You know your cars 👍 great video

[@Scalihoo]

The 71 GTO front end grows on you, well it did me. It's funny how when you get older some of the car designs you weren't into when young become more appealing

[@timhunt1482]

Now when I look at my old 67 LTD I get creeped out it's so big and weird

[@timhunt1482]

They used to make those front ends look mean y'all out there you have to love it

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

"I like this car" is the best quote ever!

[@stevehartz4615]

Great video well done.

[@timhunt1482]

My first car was a 73 Grand Prix 400 4 Barrel and a chirped 1in shifted to second

[@ernielaw]

That was the same engine which came standard in the Grand Am when it was introduced in 1973.

[@oliverw3646]

Thank you for sharing! My favorite vehicles were the Dodge armored truck, '67 Ford PU, '50 Ford 2-Door, 1908 Buick, 1966 Newport, 1963 Chrysler 300, and '85 Grand Marquis.

[@dankreoger611]

The comedian, Gabriel Iglesias (Fluffy) has a great collection of the Volkswagen micro busses.

[@grabasandwich]

Brent up here at Halfass Kustoms would probably love to get his hands on the really old stuff there. Hope he gets his shop rebuilt fairly quickly so he can get back to doing what he loves!

[@leedaniels7196]

You ALWAYS find the best auction sites!.💯👍

[@chrissawa27]

Dennis Collins should have hired you to do a prewalk through of vehicles. With your extensive knowledge of vehicles and your fan base probably would have helped his auction sales.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

He walked through several videos with Richard, and showed them on his channel, which has a far bigger reach than mine - however any promotion is good promotion, you never know who you'll catch that may be interested

[@chrissawa27]

​@@mr.goodpliers6988 just wanna say I really enjoy your channel. Thanks for what you do.

[@timhunt1482]

My grandfather had all Chryslers and I remember the sound of the starter was a hyper sound when it started. My dad's 63 Ford Galaxie seemed to start slow

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

That's a gear reduction design, and it's what most manufacturers use today. It has quite a mechanical advantage that makes it superior to a conventional design. Simple and effective

[@timhunt1482]

Looking out mean those front ends look

[@Elvis20101]

Thanks again, I appreciate your work 👍

[@2509498788]

I really like going to the auction with you.. I'm in love with the 67 f100. That model is my favorite. The old armored truck was way cool. Cheers from Vietnam

[@matthewpiper1421]

That army jeep was my favorite of all.

[@lusterwright2886]

Great video with the family keep up the great videos

[@davehotz7810]

Enjoyed seeing theGTOs made me realize how good shape my 68 GTO is l

[@timhunt1482]

This is just too much for me I love all these old cars and I appreciate you presenting them to us too bad that doesn't work for my ex-girlfriends

[@timhunt1482]

Wow some of these rigs seem to be real solid you won't see that here in Rusty salty Chicagoland

[@henryf.ky.3415]

Once again, awesome video. Where’s the rats? 😬

[@mediocremike5986]

Hope you picked up some bargains because surprisingly there were bargains to be had. Poor old Dennis looked a bit crestfallen when he did his debrief. You, Jo and Silas have seen much better in your neck of the woods but many of these went for scrap prices.

[@jefffrank4867]

I was so happy to see you at Dennis's sale! Keep up the good walk arounds and the results videos!

[@troywright7046]

Trans Am is a hot car

[@unclemarksdiyauto]

Bug eye cool! Camaro SS, Toyota 1 ton (never seen one like that!) lot as of neat stuff for sure as always. This sale had lots of stuff! Can’t wait to see what you bought!

[@ernielaw]

You covered quite a wide year range this time. everything from the 1908 Buick to the latest Jeep. I like that new Grand Wagoneer, and good to see it as a woody. Something not seen too often.

[@user-ng2rx4qc8o]

that armored car would be great for going shopping or picking the kids up at school these days....thats the one i want haha

[@heartoftexasbarnfindsandcl5193]

Good Video Bro. Was good to see you again

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Unforgettable day for sure!

[@richardmead9225]

`Dan Blocker used to load a horse into a rampside. Chevy helped sponsor Bonanza

[@urbanurchin5930]

There is a promotional video - here on KZbin - that features the cast of Bonanza and Bewitched, showing the new Chevy line-up for 1965 or '66.

[@lakemi4665]

Thanks for sharing young man

[@66skate]

The 66 Newport, 63 300 convertible and the 76 Cordoba are my favorites.

[@pinkladybikermamma3603]

NICE TO GET A BUYER'S SIDE OF COFFEE WALK GANG.

[@bevis226]

I've always wanted a little Chrysler A-body. 67-69 318 Barracuda would be my pick to hop up a bit and use as a weekend cruiser. An A Body with slapper bars and cherry bombs and a bit of cam chop is just super cool.

[@mmotodad]

A few of the vehicles were ones he purchased and were sort of the feature vehicle for his Friday Coffee Walk videos like the Dodge armored truck or the Toyota Dually. When he purchased them he expected to flip them easily or at least he really talked them up in the videos as if they would sell quickly. Some of the others were vehicles that came in a lot where he had to take the bad to get the good, that is especially true on the RVs. Around 100 of the cars were actually on the property where they were auctioned when he purchased or leased that property, those are probably the ones that were in the worst shape.

[@patdesrosiers6423]

When I moved to Denver in ‘78 I worked at a place called RV Specialties, where we built mini truck conversions like that Toyota with the crew cab and dually bed with fiberglass extra cabs and fenders. Flatbeds and occasional chassis mount campers. The dual rims were welded together and a guy would mount the tires by hand. The interior looks the same as on ours. The owner liked his nose candy and eventually lost his company. Would be interesting to see if it was like ours; I haven’t seen one here in at least 20 years

[@carlcarlson180]

I really want a 50 ford

[@liljoeii6091]

Thank you for the video

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Thanks for stopping by the channel Joe!

[@impalaman4546]

👍👍💯

[@marcbeebe]

The Dodge armoured truck is the most interesting thing there. I'd expect some high-bidding interest in that.

[@davidnelson6893]

That was cool

[@georgestone2083]

That 80's Toyota was call a club cab back in the day. Quite rare also.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍👍👍

[@debbiebermudez5890]

Mr. B. Here ! Nice to see vehicles that are not one step from ⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️ ! Now if the hobby and hobbits can promote new blood to save history ! 🛠️🧰⚒️🔧🪛 👍👍👍👍

[@timhunt1482]

I took a lot of cars to the junkyard, the V8 engines were running running but the body's gave out too much weight reduction

[@timhunt1482]

But I made sure they had their last glorian punched it 100 miles an hour to the junkyards

[@daleolson3506]

5 years from now that Jeep will be a rusting hulk waiting for parts. And will still owe the bank 35,000.

[@ernielaw]

You mean the Grand Wagoneer woody

[@ernielaw]

Or did you mean the army Jeep?

[@oakleaves8370]

Some of those cars sold at auction likely should've been put for online sale. Could've had that 73 Challenger or 68 Charger for a few months and likely got 5-10k more. Some absolute bargains.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Looking at this sale from "100 feet away" I'm not sure what held it back - there was a strong thunderstorm the day before, and it was scheduled on the same weekend as the Pate swap meet, both of which could have kept people away. However it was well advertised, and put on by Vanderbrink who is a dedicated collector car auctioneer, and there was online bidding, so more people did bid than just the bidders on site

[@pcox5333]

We got Falcon,s in Australia up to 2018

[@Markybug-Keira-Cody]

Cool armoured car ! That vw bus looked really bad, never a good sign when straps are holding a vehicle together…

[@carlcarlson180]

Really need pair of cowl lights for my 41 Dodge pu

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

I think all of ours are rusted off. They are tough to find. Joe has a couple 50 Fords that would make good projects. Email him at [e-mail]

[@brianhayes7618]

And he's got the cash to feed his passion

[@jessebaca2750]

We definitely don’t want any rain 🌧 because that equals rust 😂

[@user-ng2rx4qc8o]

like grains of sand through an hourglass,so go the cars through the crusher lol

[@urbanurchin5930]

......on the days of our lives......

[@user-jr7fw1mg4e]

toyota dually is great we never got those in australia i wonder where it will end up

[@79tazman]

I would love to own that Dodge Armour truck that thing is totally awesome and no one will have anything like it because that truck is a one of a kind. I hope whoever get's it does not destroy it and make it into something cool.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It was one of the rarest vehicles there - banks order them scrapped at the end of their service life, so finding one "in the wild" is almost unheard of

[@1964corvan]

i figured youd of done this auction. most cars went dirt cheap!!! good thing i live too far away or i would of bought a dozen!

[@dietersmythe9649]

That rust is a “Texas sunburn”

[@briann644]

This auction was done April 29.

[@michaelclark7037]

That Toyota is an after market job.

[@brentboswell1294]

Kinda. As I recall, it was done by someone like ASC, but Toyota USA sold them to dealers, and they had a full factory warranty.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

They were done for export only, so finding one is rare

[@ernielaw]

I recall seeing a brand new Toyota pick up with that custom made extended cab back in 1981. It was at a dealership in Vancouver BC., although the one shown here is from the 1970s. In the late 70s and early 80s Datsun was the only make to offer a compact truck with an extended cab which was built at their own factory.

[@pinkladybikermamma3603]

HEY, THEM OLD WAGONNERS ARE THE GO TO. THE NEW ONE HAS BAD ELECTRICALLY PROBLEMS. SAVING JEEP GRAND WAGONEERS

[@rogervillela8241]

I bought the 48 fleetline pick it up on Monday I should of bought the 40 Chevy convertible.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The '40 needed everything. There was a lot of metal work required to bring it back - would have been a true labor of love

[@carlgruver695]

Hope you got some goods

[@richroggio]

that old Dodge armored truck can be made into a nice camper vehicle.

[@kevinbarrett9615]

Willys M38 Jeep went pretty low, my favourite of the whole auction.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It was a bargain, definitely sold for under the cost to restore one

[@rhardi66]

How do I bid on these things

[@Pollock1961]

Grand Wagoneer, 112,000 dollars

[@chungadin]

Where is this?

[@Lovefladiving]

Who is the Yvette he mentions that will show what people are paying?

[@markhenderson7624]

See what they are asking for the 1961 Cadillac

[@delgray8523]

who is this Dennis guy ? Never heard of him before

[@ernielaw]

I hadn't heard of him either. but is he famous?

[@charleshaggard4341]

Why don't you open the hoods?

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

For sake of time, and respect - too many people bend the hoods or hinges when they force them. Most of these types have no idea what they're doing, and no interest in buying the vehicles anyway. If it's a car I'm actually considering buying, I'll check it out, but I lube the hinges and work them down to avoid ruining parts on a car I don't own

[@kennyrichard2971]

I wish all those cars could have been saved Honestly, can I tell you how bad I hate for metal recyclers Especially the metal recyclers that loves throwing salt into the wound that love crushing cars yeah you know who you are

[@pwilson920]

Hey Tim, what’s your eBay handle?

[@dentes1185]

68 Charger worth something

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

It was the highest selling car there, but still maybe a bit under market

[@drskull9]

wrong steering wheel in that 70 Camaro

[@joernone]

Rustbucket city.

[@terryeustice5399]

Don’t care much for Dennis Collin’s

[@wagonlife2778]

Yup he wants the show about him I think and the cars come 2nd,I don't watch him or Richard ass monkey either

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The experience I had with him wasn't what I expected - catch Part Two of this video and I'll run down what it was like

[@wagonlife2778]

@Mr. Goodpliers plus you just seem more of a humble and respectful person,we can tell through the lens. You show way more random odd ball cars and cool shit guys want to see that we can't necessarily go and see ourselves,without the peacocking,I been sub'd, thanks for all the good content Mr. GOOD

[@urbanurchin5930]

....if you can tolerate the "outstanding" comment all the time and the (usually) greasy spoon type places that the locals suggest that he eat at. sometimes his adventures are pretty good - but most of the time I don't watch. However, he usually knows a lot about particular vehicles.

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

No stem ...😂

[@richardmead9225]

Silas crushes better looking Camaros than those.

[@stevepike195]

There wasant even much wall art there.

[@pachuco1815]

some of these vehicles are too far gone and will be better to buy one restored than spend tons of time and money on most of these vehicles.

I have been subscribed for good while now.. Liked , commented and all that good stuff but I guess you have no time for your veiwers... You may have lost out on sales and a viewer... Can't even answer a Question from a viewer/former fan... Not Cool

[@stevedriver1476]

i hate stepside pickups........ the cost to paint a car and do rust repairs,, your better off buying a finished car for 35 grand.. there out there.

[@Simplelifetolive]

Mr.goodpliers tried to reach you but you didn't answer my email.
