Towed Away: Nebraska Chevrolet collection gets a new home! Plus: What is that Mystery Fleetline??

Mr. Goodpliers returns to the Nebraska Chevrolet collection for loading day! Friends have come from far and wide with their trailers for the loading party! These collector cars get a lift, then take a ride away, towed to their new home! Many curious people will take a guess: What is that Mystery Fleetline??
This is Part Three of a three-part series. See my other videos for more from this spot!
For any inquiries, please get in touch with Zack at 402 469 5703

[@ericgaj6791]

i`m glad to see these cars going to a good home and being saved

[@philipingram1667]

I thinnkk the Fleetline was used as a farrier or branding unit - there likely was some fences to corral the cattle on the right side and the bumper was some kind of a support for the fence sections.. The right side was damaged by the animals pushing against it - just my guess.

[@DKing-jg7fl]

The plan to build a car from 1 part hit close to home. Found a 32 radiator shell in a barn I was hired to tear down ended up with a 5w coupe with only 2 repro parts ( deck lid and fuel tank ). Frame that had been made into a wagon ,body shell that had been used for erosion control etc. Took awhile every part on it has a story.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Awesome!!!

[@RustyIronProjectsRIP]

That's what its all about right there.

[@frozenbits48]

If everyone would have left at once, that would have been a very impressive convoy!! Glad you are rescuing all this stuff. Many cannot be completely restored, but there seems to be a lot of parts that can be restored and reused.

[@brianandlindafairchild1237]

Possibly join up with the Canadian Truck Bricade. 🚚 👍

[@hussamal-takriti8792]

I wish they saved all and back on the road ☺️☺️ thanks again

[@terryheida7032]

It must be fun to go to all these auctions and see these old cars and trucks and equipment and the story behind it all. Wish l had a job like that.

[@thomasambriz545]

Love your NEBRASKA RANCH CAR SHOW

[@tomblomquist8213]

i like that 1960 chevy. Glad these got saved.

[@nolandraper3504]

Reminds me of the Bullocks sale in Nebraska when I set all the cars for the auction.

[@MaxAC]

That custom build with the shelves inside cleaned out and made drivable with some steelies and grandpa grips on the rear would be a great conversation piece and local cruiser. Hope it finds a good home.

[@daffiehalley7723]

Glad to see the preservation.

[@rogerbarnes257]

Great seeing most of those cars saved

[@timhanson2080]

Nice crop of cars. Glad some will be saved.👍

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Crop is definitely the operative word... A field of vintage tin ripening in the sun!

[@norcaldigger348]

Nice series of videos. I hope some of those old beauties make it back on the road some day. I do think it's a shame that they scrap any of the old classics that still have donor parts.

[@thomasm.7058]

Amazing... "Load up party"...

[@ryand.8176]

That’s a lot of Chevys! The green one with the Poly was a sleeper for sure! Be fun to dig into that one and see if it was hopped up at all and get it back on the road again! 😁

[@arthuraucar3696]

What a shame! I see a lot of good parts cars getting crushed! Almost makes me cry!!!!

[@OLDTIME47]

man, that first junked 48 4dr has good bumper guards, bumpers, door handles, tail light medallion, inner dash parts and window frames, all kinds of good stuff

[@dowen1511]

Trunk lid was still usable on that 46 that went in the iron truck. Lol

[@alkennedy1124]

My favorite is , allll Of them ,I hope they find new adventures intbefe life , Zack is my hero, nice 👍 thanks, BigAl California.

[@Docmiller4425]

Great video of them being loaded up and hauled to your friend's place. He has an amazing bunch of cars and trucks from the looks of the video that you were able to share with us. It is good that he was able to get these and hopefully most of them will get purchased to be restored or put into restoration projects. My favorite is the Mystery Fleetline. It looks like a farrier may have had it. Perhaps the side was used to drop a hitching post into so he could tie the horses to it while he was shoeing the one that he was doing. The front could have been something for it too. Who knows for sure. It sure is a neat and interesting car the way it is set up. I appreciate that you shared these videos and it was great watching the series. Keep it up.

[@fyou5986]

Great video. Thanks.

[@garycousino4016]

Wow! that Nash has gotta be worth some bucks

[@davidmaggard514]

The lite green 54 2 door was my fav out of about all of them then the mopar swap was kool thanks for no wall hangers.great.video as always.😮👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@SJS-wq5wg]

15:12 "Chromy go-fast look" 🤣 49 4-door Fleetline Deluxe is on my bucket list (dark blue)

[@markransom08]

On what the fleet line was used for: I think this was a traveling salesman's car. My Dad had the back of his Fairlane set up in a similar manner. We used to say he kept it in the Dewey Decimal System 😂😂🎉

[@fredlysgaard4699]

Thank you for the videos of the old cars i have collected old grain trucks over the years i still would like to find a 1956 dodge C3 2 ton truck with a poly engine

[@2509498788]

Every one of these cars had a life in the history once upon a Time.. now they will scattered all over the USA. Perhaps starting another life somewhere else?? Such and interesting Legacy.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Wish these old relics could talk, imagine all the great stories!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Oh wow, very cool!!!!!!!! 👍👍

[@John-jl3ky]

That’s very cool, sometimes here in Central Indiana I’ll drive by what used to be a farm or somebody still living there but there’s trucks and cars and tractors all over the place that aren’t used any more, kind of like a living junkyard that they own, sometimes I feel like stopping and just want to look around but I don’t think they would like that very much. Great video!

[@unclemarksdiyauto]

A nice part II to the other video. Just amazing how many cars he had.

[@1tojo]

I saw them crush several cars and it broke my heart I have a 37 2Dr Sedan and I remember how hard it was to find a good right front fender 35 years ago

[@d.pierce.6820]

That's a strong little forklift!

[@danterry6328]

This was great, especially after seeing the vid of the cars getting crushed. Didn’t see a lot of Tri Five and newer. Mostly post war to 54. Glad they were saved. Thanks for showing this. Had to watch it twice.

[@daviddamico4288]

That car looked like it had some kind of a rack on it something like you would see on a pickup truck to carry a ladder… I had a uncle that had a car like the one you got cool looking … great video Tim thanks for sharing ….

[@JCT442]

If I didn't know better I'd think those cars grew out of the Nebraska corn fields...

[@johnnyhernandez7561]

Wow what a great find of great American vintage cars, i wish i could own some land in the woods and find some of these great classic cars and make them my very own😃😃

[@terrencegiordan2775]

That is amazing these places you find with all those classic cars another great video they do not have nothing that I know of in vero beach fl glad to see they have a new home what happened to the guy that owned them.

[@markhoffman9674]

Awesome collection of Chevrolet vehicles! I never would think that many would be together in 1 place in this day and age! Thanks for filming it! I can't believe they put 80-85 Cadillac Seville in iron box! Looked like a pretty nice car! My father had a 81 de elegant model with 6.0L V8 4,6,8 fuel injection! You don't see many on the road anymore! 2dr s-10 blazer didn't look bad either! Glad you got some good parts to resell on eBay! Take care.

[@sandyhansen]

This was an awesome series of videos! Thank you so much 😊

[@alkennedy1124]

Well not all of them got tires on em, none are getting crushed ,right, thanks BigAl California.

[@ViaAvione]

I'm screaming!! I want one!

These are available. I have included Zack's contact in the video description box

[@ronlynch7744]

The Nebraska Chevy Farm…. Good one. The Dog is saying “ Just the crust Mr Goodpliers, just the crust….. please”. Thank you for the Crust. Man, that’s Tons of American Steel to move. That car might have been the Local Sheriffs unmarked Police Car with a Push Bumper. 😎👍🇨🇦

[@markbehr88]

Great series of videos. Shame about the hunchback Seville though.

Good vid Pliers!!

[@n_y_o_o_m]

wow I've never seen a hatchback caddy like that

[@dowen1511]

That's an old style 303ci poly block v8 maybe a 277ci that car was built back in the early 50s I sure hope it gets restored as is as a street hot rod of the 50s. Not really fast per say. But I bet it could hold its own around town back then . lol. May even been built a shine runner who knows .

[@jamesthompson8008]

@ D Owen - Agree, that one really should either be cleaned up n preserved or redone in its current iteration.

[@tommylitz4543]

[@wileecoyote5749]

Each of those cars can easily fetch $683K as they sit.

[@crazyloco8057]

Interested in the 46s and 42 possible a couple others

[@michaelguinn5736]

Morning Tim, watching your video, can't help but wonder how long it took that fella to drag each car to his farm, it was sad to see those 1.5 trucks cut in half for the cab...the Chevrolet with the Chrysler drive train was pretty cool..the guy doing the loading did his best not to damage the purchased vehicles anymore than he had to...glad to see most went to good homes..Tim, what was the coolest or rarest car there? Be safe!! God Bless!!

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

In my opinion the Mystery Fleetline was the most unique. These were all fairly high production vehicles with the exception of the 1942s which were only built for half of the model year before factories switched over to defense production.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

One guy had bought them all. The individuals with trucks and trailers were just helping him move them

[@dombutler7685]

Thanks Tim, really good bunch of videos!

I'm not really a fan of Chevrolet. But those Arrow sedans were really cool cars. The Styling they had was just awesome. I also did like that early fifties Pontiac. Since I collect Pontiacs. Enjoy your videos. You definitely know what you're talking about which makes it very enjoyable . Keep up the good work. A loyal viewer.

I GOTTA SAY... I WAS REALLY PISSED TO SEE THOSE CARS GET CRUSHED!! ESPECIALLY THE OLD ONES!! SCRAP GUYS THAT CRUSH OLD IRON ARE DISGRACEFUL!! NO NEED FOR THAT! ....BUT, I ENJOYED SEEING WHAT GOT SAVED!

[@Anders.W.]

I guess that Chevrolet was used for working in the woods and bringing home lumber hanging on the side of the car ? Maybe also used for hunting ?

[@arnoldozamorano8618]

The star of the show was the black dog! The cars...not so much. You've seen one rusty heap, you've seen them all. Most of them look like good candidates for teardown and parts recycling for the better vehicles out there on the road.

[@jeffreysproul9110]

I believe that was the main reason for buying these cars. Hard to find decent body parts for cars of these vintages. At least these cars will live on as donors through other cars so they are not wasted.

[@peterselten500]

The black an green cars on the trailer together an id guess a plumber or roofer an we had the episode of american pickers with you in it last week here in oz at last

[@snake_eyes_garage]

That's good to see. My parents first date was in a '48 Chevy. Great to see. I was conceived much later - I suppose if that was my time I would have been more of a Chevy guy. ha ha ha

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The old man was very centered around 1940s to 1954 cars, with the one exception being 1956's. There were around 20 more 1956 Chevy's which were sold before these remaining ones were sold.

That fleetline is cool. Strikes me as a old governmet fleet car. Maybe department of ag.

[@charliehill995]

This is subjest to better knowledge but here goes: In 1942 Chevrolet mad some Fleetlines. It had to do with the trim on the front fenders and rear fender skirts. Some with the slooped rear were called Aerosedans. That lasted until 1949.when the Aerosedan name was scraped and all the slopped rears were called Fleetlines instead of Aerosedans.. Please excuse my spelling but that about it, I believe.

The Chevy is a farrier’s vehicle ( horse shoeing ). Those are lead rope ties on the side and dents from uncooperative horses. Their might be an old rodeo rider that would love that historic vehicle. Farriers never have to advertise, every horse person knows who the local ones are.

Would have loved to have all those old license plates off the cars destined for scrap.

Its a shame that they crushed and scrapped those newer Cadillac's, those are just now becoming collectable, and parts will be scarce as so many are not being kept in salvage but are being turned into new paper clips. Where is Chad from Nobody's Auto when you need him?
