Always remember, the vast majority of these were headed to the shredder if not for me. Better something is saved than nothing. I’m just one man and hundreds of these old cars and trucks get shredded every week that you never get to see.

i agree. i love the old cars and trucks, but realistically, nobody is restoring any 1 ton+ trucks, and they are lousey street rods. so cutting the nose off for wall art keeps at least a small part of history out of the crusher.

Very funny disclaimer! I’m not a car person but even I cringe at some of these. I love the history. I never made a very good Steampunk because it was too upsetting to see what they do to an antique watch… I still have a beautiful non-functioning pocket watch (that I found for $10) in my jewelry box because I was too scared to trade it to someone at a convention for fear that they’d gut it and make earrings and pins from the gears. But you can keep a pocket watch around. Not so easy with a bunch of Chevys.

@AdventuresMadeFromScratch Жыл бұрын

I’ve got some cool 100+ year old pocket watches as well! Maybe I’ll make a video about those on my 2nd channel. One is .800 silver dated from the middle of the Civil War. It’s not for sale at any price. I also have a gilded bronze clock tower with a watch face that was displayed in the White House in the late 1800s.

Great job. I have zero problem with keeping things flowing through the yard/business rather than waiting forever for a buyer who may not even exist, much less find you and deal with the shipping costs. Also, things don't get more rare and valuable by saving every last one of them, so you're doing collectors/restorers a favor in that way.

@SGTMacBC Жыл бұрын

Yea, that was rough to watch. But, you can't save them all. You do a pretty good job on picking and choosing what to save back. One thing that is big in my area.

Some people hoard many vehicles and say they will fix them up. They never do and won't sell any. They just leave them in a swamp for 30 years until they are good for nothing.

Man, it is so sad to see all the noses in parts get cut off the trucks and even a lot of good parts scrapped. But I frequently think about when watching these videos that with how many of these old trucks are out there, there are not enough people that have the capability and desire to restore them and use them. With how many are getting scrapped everyday I can only imagine the thousand still sitting on farms. At least part of these trucks is still getting looked at and appreciated in the form of decoration. If anything I think you for taking the time to save as much as you can. Most of these trucks will never be restored anyway. At least now certain parts can be preserved.
