Thanks for the background on your car dealership retailer experience. Lowballers are the worst, especially the ones that want grill you with questions on a cheap vehicle and then further chisel you on the price. That's got to be just insulting. Hope your current gig is working out way better. Love your channel and I hope it's loving you back too.

Maybe you did try, but the ignition cylinder on the silver F150 COULD possibly be worn out to a point where it may be able to start by just twisting on it. Common problem in that era Ford.

There was a BMW 440i that could be fun if it's not wrecked! That inline 6 puts out 320hp/330lb-ft of torque in a relatively light car. I just saw a glimpse of the tail end while you were panning past that S10 near the end of the video, just a few spots away from the Civic.

Dodge 100% offered a Shelby version of the P-Body Dodge Shadow. It was called the Shelby CSX. The Charger was an earlier L-body car. Then of course there’s the Shelby Omni which was basically a 5 door Charger.

I don't know about the Grand Marquis, but Ford did make for a few years a Crown Victoria LX Sport. The sport had better wheels with bucket seats and a floor shift. They are difficult to find, and they are usually not real cheap. As for the 80's Mopar's don't forget the Plymouth Laser, and the Dodge Daytona turbo z. If you really want a good find, try to locate a Dodge Stealth RT.

Your dislike of retail car dealership is understandable. As a business owner, and woman who likes to buy and sell, it goes against my grain to repeatedly sell cars for a loss. Have you considered making arrangements with a retail dealership, to buy your cars when you are finished with them. They would still be buying them at wholesale, but neither of you would have to pay auctions fees on the sell/trade. There has to be a way to at least break even or make a small profit on most of the vehicles without you being a retail dealer.

Ok Randy you answered my question about why you don’t have a retail dealer license. Around the early 2000’s sold a Plymouth Colt and F150 within a month. Both delayed doing the title and one got a parking ticket I had to pay or lose my drivers license. F150 buyer moved to California and also got a parking ticket that thankfully I didn’t have to pay but I got several letters.

G'afternoon Randy 🤠 . If you want a weird quirky cool and fast little Dodge car from the 80s that'll eat that little Shelby K car. Find an 85' - 87ish Daytona turbo Z. They have the same 2.2L Maserati 4 cylinder the Chrysler TC by Maserati had w/ a 12LB Turbo. I had one and for what it was that lil' sumbitch was fast and fun. If you find one the first thing you want to do is change the map sensor & add an air-to-air intercooler and you'll have a fun little rocket ship that'll get looks and compliments everywhere. Idk if they were faulty from the factory or what but the map sensors would eventually puke and die and it would cause the turbos to start glowing red hot and it would catch the fuel return systems on fire and that's no bueno. If you find one before it burns up and you put a nice aftermarket map sensor and an intercooler on it your styling bro 🙃

IT WAS A NICE CAR FOR THE SHORT TIME I OWNED IT I remember it came in black red and a silver blue I think and then in 1986 I believe it came out with the intercooled and I always wanted one of them so try to get you one with the intercooler there a little types of nice car I do have a picture oh yeah I remember it had Goodyear eagle VR tires on them when they first came out those tires were the shit.
