Knew a doctor that was single most his life and bought a lot of nice cars. He told me the first brand new car he bought was a 1958 Impala and was his favorite of all the cars he owned.

57 Silver Hawk in that condition requiring brake work.and replacement fuel pump, that's a heck of a deal... someone's very lucky

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The lady who bought it was over the moon for it. That's a very respectable survivor, acquired for a fraction of the cost of taking a junkyard car and giving it rust repair, new paint, interior, and a driveline rebuild

That Studebaker was the best buy at that sale. Love the live auctions, we don't see much of them out my way.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The lady who bought it was over the moon to get it

[@robertparker3172]

I realize it needs a new fuel pump and some brake work . But what’s that amount to? Maybe $1,000 if you pay someone to do the work. Meanwhile she got a car worth about $20,000 for $9,500. She should be over the moon.

The yellow service sign, somebody wanted that one really bad.

NO 2 guys wanted it pretty bad. Good to see the old guard out in Kansas (I'm guessing)

great day at the auction nice to see the parts move to be used again

[@valricogarcia]

You scored some really great stuff for very little money spent. Those are the most fun type of auctions. The old school " in person only" auctions , instead of the ones that open the bidding up to the internet. Always good deals to be had . congrats.

On line auctions suck can I still say that ? Love in person nothing better cheers mr pliers excellent 😊

[@squablow]

Best auction video in quite a while, this was a really good one. I would have been temped to take on that '58 Belair for that price. Lots of cool stuff at this one, and some real bargains.

Memories, you mentioned 2 cars I owned. My first car was the 49 chevy 2 door fastback with sunvisor and wheel skirts. 3rd car was Pontiac Ventura Sprint manual transmission, it had air shocks which came in handy when loading 3 sets of dive gear in the trunk or towing a boat.

With 4 door classic your entire family can enjoy. The two door you'd have to sell it after the wife gives birth to your child. But even if you go out with friends, nobody wants to go to the back seat on two doors classic. Very few are exceptions of the case...

[@dyer2cycle]

No Tucker engines I presume?..🙃..wow, I can't get over how cheap any of that stuff sold for..you'd never find most of that stuff around here, and if you did, they'd be asking a mint!..examples, those engines were dirt cheap,and that 58 Bel Air would be a $4-6K car, even with the rust....

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The '58 will go to Texas. He'll do okay on it. I'd expect it might bring somewhere in the $3k to $4k range down there

[@Dave_9547]

I think the 69-70 Chevelle is pretty much the same style of vehicle as the Marlin.

[@dyer2cycle]

Seems '56 and '58 Chevys share a SEVERE propensity for the fenders to rust completely away around the headlights for some reason..seems to affect 55's also but less so, and 57's MUCH less so....I also see that problem to varying degrees on 60's and 61's....

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The '56 and '58 had an aftermarket Schott patch panel cap available within a short time after they were new. A couple trips down a salty road with no car wash after would quickly do them in.

[@user-rt8ik1ow4i]

Please brother, contact KSR in Florida, he is building a Oldsmobile drag car,and bet he would buy those Aluminum. Osmobil engines i'm not affiliated with him in any way but he would want him by guarantee it

[@stevieraycharles1799]

I always liked 67 Marlin better. But I also thought first gen Marlin would respond well to a mild roof chop. Set the windshield back. Romney insisted that an adult should be able to sit in the back seat with a hat on. That roof should've tapered sooner.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Fascinating info Thanks Stevie!

You know your stuff, But - I sure think You missed the boat on that 58 Chevy, 2dr post cars sell, plus it's a 58 Chevy

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

The guy who bid on it let me have the Marlins for cheap, so I let him have the Chevrolet for cheap. It was definitely a rustier car than it appeared, but someone will build it. I already had an even load for the spots on trailers that we brought, so it made since not to make a second trip back for loadout, especially considering the distance

[@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC]

I agree with you on the dealer books, Tim. They're a great resource for a restorer or just an auto history nut (like I am). Way back when, I was lucky to get my hands on a 1971 Ford dealer book, complete with the interior and exterior color chart book to go with it. Oh, and the books are great if you want to get your car nerd friends together and play a game of automotive trivial pursuit.

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

I've got the set of them for a 1961 Chevrolet. It's been a decade since I sold my Impala, but it's still neat to look through. The '61 is a dream car of one of my friends in his 20's, and I am saving them to surprise him with once he eventually finds one. I had a set of 1975 Dodge that I just gave away as a graduation gift to a college student who drove a 1975 Coronet. The best set I had was a 1970 Dodge Charger. They sure were neat but when I looked up what they were worth I decided I didn't need to hold them very tight. They brought $1000 on eBay to a buyer in Australia

I know my way around a brake, shear, bead roller, shrinker/stretcher, and Mig pretty well, and I agree anything can be saved if you want it bad enough and are willing to put in the time. However there are some vehicles that just don't have enough market value in the collector world to justify the labor involved

[@mrgreezy1]

@@mr.goodpliers6988 agreed, I guess it boils down to if you just see it as labor or you actually enjoy it. Being disabled with no decent income I would feel beyond privileged to work on a vehicle like that. If god ever blessed me with one.. I guess it’s just looked at differently by different folks.
