While in St. George, Utah, Tom Cotter learns of a junkyard with hundreds of solid old cars, where the owner never sold anything and never allowed anyone inside. In classic Barn Find Hunter fashion, Tom makes a few phone calls and sweet-talks his way into Blake’s Auto Salvage. It is indeed a veritable fortress of forgotten cars. Many are only good for parts, but among them Tom finds an R-code Torino, a vintage White 706 tour bus from Yellowstone, and a low-mile Lincoln Continental Mk III.

That's one rare Nash. I'm an owner of a 1957 Nash Ambassador, there are only a handful of them that have survived. Nice to see that it's definitely restorable. It would have had an AMC 327 V8 originally. AMC's first V8 engine.

OsbornTramain You are wrong AMC's first V8 engine was manufactured in 1956 and was a 250. American Motors' first V8 in-house engine, the 250, was used in AMC automobiles from 1956 through 1961 and made its debut in the Nash Ambassador and Hudson Hornet "Specials" of 1956. Just thought I would help you keep the history going.

Red is right about certain people say they want their stuff but never come back for it. Just like storage units and stuff left behind. I work in the dealership parts world. When you order a part special order, it's pre-pay because if we didn't require pre-pay we'd be loaded-up with special order parts. The crazy thing is the amount of pre-paid parts people don't ever come back for. Expensive stuff too. People are weird.

People change their mind or can't stay focused on a project or idea. I have 3 projects. Just in one day while thinking and planning and working on one car plans changed. You start a project you find out how much it cost or it turns out it was not an easy fix so things change. Also sometimes you make a deal sleep on it and the next day you don't want it. The wife and I went car shopping and the first car we looked at I knew we would buy it but the wife had to look at other cars. She realized the first car was in excellent condition but it had been sitting in a garage for ten years I told her I will get it running. So all of us change our minds after thinking and something else better gets in the way or we are too dumb to make a decision.

Doesn't matter, you still would not have really seen anything anyway. The main charater is Tom Cotter and all you see is him bullshiting about a lot of bullshit and not really looking at the cars. I like the show and I like him, but not the content. You don't really get to see the cars and best ones there are the ones he doesn't really know anything about and won't be shown that much if he doesn't bullshit about it.

The gaskets, distributor cap, points cam, camshaft, crankshaft, harmonic balancer, carb, and block and manifold castings are about the only 4 cylinder specific parts in the engine. Every thing else can be had by ordering parts for either a 304 or 392 International V8. That's how I rebuilt the 196 that was in my '71 Scout....

I congratulate you on your persistence, Mr. Cotter! 30 years ago, I bought a '77 Cordoba - & people told me "Ahhh, you'll never get that running!" But in about 3 months time, those same people were asking for rides. Keep doing what you're doing - it works! If I had the money, time, & space, I'd buy 5-10 of those vehicles & somehow put them back on the road. Maybe they wouldn't be "Concours" but then again I wouldn't be building trailer queens.

Every car person eventually meets someone like Red....glad he found "spokesman" to handle things. Most old guys like that end up just sitting on this stuff until they die, and then it all gets scrapped.

The scout engine is a 172-1/2 . It uses half the components from a 345 International V-8 Engine. The cylinder head will fit either side of the V-8 engine or vice-versa, pistons and rods can be swapped. the four can use a V-8 distributor cap. the valve cover will fit a eight or the eight can yield two valve covers for the 4. The concept was ahead of it's time.

Not quite. The engine in all Scout 80's of those years (61-65) was an IH 152, which was half of the IH 304 V8. IH never did field a slant 4 which was half of the 345, it did however make a 4-196 which was half of a V392. The 196 replaced the 152 as the standard engine soon after introduction of the Scout 800 in 1966, although the 152 lingered as an option for several more years.

if you compare a yellow stone tour bus to the one on this episode they're are differences....The back is flat and not round..The amount of windows/front window, it seems like this a shorter version of the tour bus used at yellowstone.

When I was in high school,many junkyards were full of good stuff(1976).You could just explore and pull your own parts.They were cheap and plentiful,more wrecks with hot rods.I found a big ditch full of corvettes,c3, in Va.,pulled all the rotors,etc.Told one of my friends and they got a whole IRS rearend out of there. I end up stripping and crushing a 69 ram air IV GTO, still crying.
