I could spend the rest of my life going through old stuff like this. Anyone who has a chance to talk to their grandpa or elderly neighbor, spend some time with them and do it. I bet every part and piece on this farm has a story that Grandpa and Grandma has a story to tell about it. And I bet they knew exactly where everything was and was supposed to be. My neighbor recently passed at 92 and had a shop and barn similar to this and boy the stories he had. Once they are gone, they are gone, the people, their belongings and their stories so enjoy them now. Many thanks for your videos, I always enjoy them. keep them coming. Happy New Year.
It's a sad thing that family owned farms have been abandoned over the decades but without people like you finding them Silas, people outside your neck of the woods and other rural parts of the nation would never have known that they existed.
I'm a sketchy man. I go in sketchy places. Well said, Silas. That's why I watch. Love that you tell us what you see as you walk through the huge amount of stuff .
Your farm cleanups are the best keep showing us that old stuff Up north there isn’t any things like that left it’s so wet here on the coast that almost everything that old rotted away years ago
So much old farm stuff still existing from the past. You are a lucky man to be involved in such an operation of sorting all the good parts out that will be saved and bought by someone. It would be a thrill for me just to walk thru and check out all the old farm stuff that was used decades ago. Thanks for the video Silas and best wishes to you and yours.
I bet you find some nice treasure beyond what we saw. A quick glance reveals whats on the surface and I know from doing it myself that sometimes great things lay just beneath the surface! Cannot wait to see what you find!😁
1 time I found a big wash pot dug it out of old chicken coop. Only small part showing but it was complete no cracks. Have used it for party's makes lots of soup
Chevy pickup is a 1963. On the 1960-66 cab the 1960-63 A pillar slants ahead. The 64-66 A pillar slants back with the headlight frames being square, not round like the 1963. I would love to explore this farm. It takes a keen eye to know what the 90 year old machinery actually was. I grew up on a farm so enjoy seeing all the machinery too. Great video.
That’s amazing that the keys are still in the ignition of that old truck. I love to see those old farms and equipment just sitting there untouched. In my area everything would have been stolen, vandalized, or destroyed. So it’s good to see cool old things left as they were by the owners.
My Grandfather wore that same Wide-brimmed hard hat everyday on his Farm. 🚜 His was White and I never saw one like his/that style until Today!! Too Coool. THANKS SILAS!! He had also like this Farmer kept a Hardware Stores amount of inventory of necessary items, spare parts, fluids and Specialty Tools on hand at all times. This wasn't called "Hoarding" it was simply called "Prepared". 🔧😁
There's a TON (literally) of cool stuff at that farm. All those old pop cans like the Cherry Cola one are also worth a couple bucks if they are not heavily crushed. All the others you can just put in the scrap.
My Grandads farm house had a 2 seater as did most estate farms in Nottinghamshire England. I had to use it as a child till he had a inside bathroom fitted.
Some great finds at this farm!!!! That must have been a fine barn back in the day. Sad to see it falling down but farming has moved on and things become obsolete. I was waiting for something bad tempered with sharp teeth to come flying put of one of those draws you opened!!!
Hello Mr Silas from England. I would have enjoyed looking around the old farm with you. The Avenue of over grown trees was very beautiful. It will look even better in the Spring or Summer time. Bye for now. JR.
That was amazing Silas. Can't wait to see what you really find once the clean up begins. I always wonder about all that stuff and who used it. To see places like that abandoned it makes me wonder about the families that once farmed the place and where they went. If only the old basketball whoop could talk.
That’s a 60 to a 65, I have a 60 61 Apache 10 stepside right now, and I had a 61 Apache three-quarter ton, wrap a round bobbled bump lights in the hoods on both of them , loll nice thanks BigAl California.
Great video. Brings back many memories from when I was a kid back in the early 1950. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Gary fro West Virginia.
I had the opportunity of "touring" the farm the was originally built by my great-great-grandfather, then run by my great-grandfather, and my grandfather until WWII when he moved to Niagara Falls to work for the war effort. There wasn't anything of value in the barns, outbuildings, or house but, sitting on an old barrel in the "milk parlor", I felt a definite family almost as if I really belonged there. I'm not superstitious, nor do I believe in "spirits" but I felt like my ancestors were still there, and my world was at peace! I was in my late 60s at the time, so my roots ran very deep there.
Me and my siblings have already done that. My dad always used to say his barn clean up would be a gold mine. We did find some cool stuff. And a lot of junk that had just accumulated over the years Ode old guys that lived through the depression saved everything. We did find some old coins in my dad’s barn Is this your barn clean up? Who gets the money from the scrap?
Those yellow badge chevy hubcaps i could use those for my 1976 rv. Alot of nice finds there. Alot of money to be made there. Generators, nos parts. VERY NICE man!!!!!
Growing up we would go to farm and estate sales all the time. My dad being a farmer himself enjoyed the auctions and I loved tagging along. I learned how to dicker and negotiate from him. We would drive by old places and dad would say wistfully. "I wonder what's in there".
I seen a case of coke bottles on the shelf at about 19 minutes. That was really cool, I see a ton of collectables and i wish I could be there. Cool finds!
You should Find or Hire someone to do your ebay for you, You are finding a bunch of cool stuff that would sell. Love these old farm vids, its like a treasure hunt.
I remember being a kid in the 70s and we used to sneak around old buildings, one of them had nothing but grease and oil cans lining the walls, all along one shelf that went around the whole place. Cans of all shapes and sizes, some big, some small, I forget all the names but there must have been 4 of everything and it was all in good shape. This particular place was built from block and had a great roof on it, we would sneak in thru an old window and just hang out and drink pop and tell stories, a good spot to get out of the rain or crappy weather. Cannot imagine how many dollars worth of cans there were in there I hope somebody saved a few.
Morning Silas, back when I was a kid, I loved places like your Farm clean up(still do), but where we live now all those places are gone, I grew up in Oxford Michigan, which at the time was the gravel capital, there were gravel pits everywhere, they all had junk piles, I remember bringing stuff home on my bycycle, I still have some of the stuff I brought home. Silas, is that Pontiac hub cover for sale? If so, I would love to have it, this has to be one of your best "cool stuff" videos, every time I commented I had to stop the video, I didn't want to miss anything!!!..Be safe, God Bless!!!
We had a metal bed on a 2 ton truck with a grain bed and if you were hauling cattle you would pull a few bolts and part of the grain bed would swing out and up and be a cattle bed. It was red too and I should remember the name of the manufacturer.
Thats a twin to the hand drill hanging on the wall,it disapeared when Grandma moved,the movers kept it we think,What a time capsule,and adventure to just roameach building had its use back in the day around,
I love these treasure hunting videos, youre so lucky to have these places that have things like this, If I were there Id be there all day no internet for me!
Tons of scrap and truckloads of treasures - you got your work cut out on that one! Oh how I wish I could be hiding around the corner with some kinda furry little thing to rollout in front of you while you're peekin around the corner.....you know just something to get the day going! LOL Those cubbyhole cabinet/shelves in the buildings actually bring some money too.... if you can get them without a bunch of time involved. Thanks for sharing
If I lived near you I would definitely be begging to work for you just to experience everything you get involved in on a daily basis. Hell, I'd work for free (as long as lunch was included!) My only problem is I'd end up broke from wanting to buy and save the old cars and everything else in between. I spent my youth sneaking into the local junk yard and exploring all the old cars and this was years before I could even drive. My only fear was being spotted by the vicious old guard dog. God I ramble! Lol.
I don't know if you kept the truck or what but you know you could fix the bed by getting a bottle jack or a little floor jack with maybe a 4x4 little short piece of wood and Jack the sides of the bed back up and that would at least lift them up so they look a little more straight across I would say that things has possibilities for a rebuild? Love the videos my brother.
Silas I could not get rid of anything at this farm clean up , it’s all worth a ton , none of this is junk , none of it in my book, but of course I can’t get rid of anything lolol, I would need a bigger place to put all of these goody keeper stuff, loll thanks BigAl California. Praise grace Christ amen. Thanks BigAl.
My Gandma abd Grandpa had a "tin COMB CASE" just like that nailed on the wall over their only sink. Tthat sink had cold running water only piped from the cistern and drained out the back wall to a small ditch which run out aways from the house. The sink was all they had for drinking and washing dishes in a big white porcelain pan with a red rim filled with water heated on the stove. When Grandpa came in from the field or barn for dinner and supper he always washed his hands and arms up to elbows with Lava soap, took a comb out of the tin comb case, wet the comb and combed his hair, and put the comb back in it before coming to the table to eat. No indoor toilet and only a coal stove for heat I loved going there every day even though my parents had hot water, a toilet and gas heater. Those were the best days and memories of my life. I wish I had a tin comb case that like that you showed for old times sake. Glad to let you know what is is.
Hi Silas got something funny for you. You talked about a Skunk a few years back I was changing my starter in my 79 Chevy on the ground I reached back picked up one of the bolts to get the starter held up in place not that's open there reach back out the other bolt and got zapped by a skunk buy a skunk mind you I live back in the woods then woods done well order 3 showers later withere's later with the hose but I keep going to house and take a shower just wanted to share that Please keep videos coming love him
No, I’m not stealing or trespassing 😆
You selling any of the old steal equipment??

That is so cool , the neat barn and the building with the concrete walls!! I like the Chevy hubcaps.
I'm starting to clear out old vacant property as a side gig, and I absolutely love it. The history you find and save is the best part of doing it.
That’s amazing that the keys are still in the ignition of that old truck. I love to see those old farms and equipment just sitting there untouched. In my area everything would have been stolen, vandalized, or destroyed. So it’s good to see cool old things left as they were by the owners.

Cool video! Hard to belive at one time all this junk was brand new, manufactured somewhere in the USA .thanks for posting.
You sir are a wealth of knowledge about what can be repurposed, sold and scrapped and what a service you provide.
My Grandads farm house had a 2 seater as did most estate farms in Nottinghamshire England. I had to use it as a child till he had a inside bathroom fitted.
I like the farm scrap clean up videos always cool to see what you find! Looking forward to seeing more action on this clean up! 💯😃👍
What an adventure!
I love all your cleanup farm videos. Thanks for all the extra time you put in on all the details. We are patiently waiting for our next adventure.
Some great finds at this farm!!!!
That must have been a fine barn back in the day. Sad to see it falling down but farming has moved on and things become obsolete.
I was waiting for something bad tempered with sharp teeth to come flying put of one of those draws you opened!!!
Wow!! Some great items there. That was a self sufficient farm back in the day. It's a shame it couldn't have been kept up through the years.
Good parts truck. 1963 GMC factory 4spd . Cool
A guy up here paints those cultivater wheels like a sunflower for yard art. We have always kept our barn roof fixed up. Sure was a nice non windy day.
This is a great find! I love all this old farm stuff! Such a treasure trove of stuff to look at! Thank you for sharing your knowledge as well!
Great Day To Be Out and Enjoy The Walk around and Etc.☕️🔨🔦👏🤔💪
Really a nice ole barn, what a find! Thanks for posting.
Hello Mr Silas from England. I would have enjoyed looking around the old farm with you. The Avenue of over grown trees was very beautiful. It will look even better in the Spring or Summer time. Bye for now. JR.
Another cool adventure. So enjoying just walking back in time. Thanks for sharing your videos. Peace
Thanks for the tour
Of the old farms
I'm thinking Silas may be a hoarder disguising himself as a scrapper.😁
That was amazing Silas. Can't wait to see what you really find once the clean up begins. I always wonder about all that stuff and who used it. To see places like that abandoned it makes me wonder about the families that once farmed the place and where they went. If only the old basketball whoop could talk.

Such a sweet find. I miss exploring old farm houses when I was a kid.
Great video. Brings back many memories from when I was a kid back in the early 1950. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Gary fro West Virginia.

What cool finds I really like the big barns .
Hey Silas
Did you ever think that somebody in 30 or 40 years will be going through your stuff doing a Farm clean up?
Me and my siblings have already done that. My dad always used to say his barn clean up would be a gold mine. We did find some cool stuff. And a lot of junk that had just accumulated over the years
Ode old guys that lived through the depression saved everything. We did find some old coins in my dad’s barn
Is this your barn clean up? Who gets the money from the scrap?
Great stuff, like a kid in a candy shoppe.
That is a really interesting treasure hunt!! Thanks Silas, I bet you find other cool things here!
Good stuff everywhere!
The wall-mount / bench-mount drills in the workshop -- I'd love to have those for Scout camp and teaching old craftsman skills to our youth!
you ain't kidding there are plenty of unseen treasures on that farm. I'll be watching for the following videos
I find these tours very interesting, Thank you.
Very cool treasure hunt video. That old red pickup is sweet!
When my grandpa was a kid he had a 3 seater out house and now he has the seat hanging up in his shop
The light fixture is very cool.
That boys banana bike reminds me of when I was a young teen
Wow, I'm drooling, wish I could partake of your tour! Lol
Those yellow badge chevy hubcaps i could use those for my 1976 rv. Alot of nice finds there. Alot of money to be made there. Generators, nos parts. VERY NICE man!!!!!
That was a real interesting video that was a look into a long forgotten farm and a way of life thanks for taking us along with you
Cool finds, can't wait for the clean out.
Growing up we would go to farm and estate sales all the time. My dad being a farmer himself enjoyed the auctions and I loved tagging along. I learned how to dicker and negotiate from him. We would drive by old places and dad would say wistfully. "I wonder what's in there".
Serious vintage vibes! Love it. You have a real good eye
Man oh man! That's treasure beyond treasure. I'm definitely envious. Thanks for sharing the finds.
I seen a case of coke bottles on the shelf at about 19 minutes. That was really cool, I see a ton of collectables and i wish I could be there. Cool finds!
Thank you for this beautiful tour. Some amazing stuff.
Really enjoying these farm clean up videos
awesome finds you found a gold mine of antiques an musium pieces what a find
You should Find or Hire someone to do your ebay for you, You are finding a bunch of cool stuff that would sell. Love these old farm vids, its like a treasure hunt.
I would love to do that, but I’ve been looking for a couple years now.
Hell yeah I enjoyed your tour that was awesome brother .Thankyou 👍
Barn dances in this old barn would have been so 😎
Cool!

All that lovely corrugated aluminum roofing and siding.

Thoroughly enjoyed

Great videos. Love these farm clean ups. Been to a couple and the more you go back the more you find. 👍
That large stone you kicked might be a surface plate used by machinists and would be worth picking up if you can .
I think or I was thinking it was an unused tombstone
Manic Mechanic is right that is a machinist block ! 👍
So cool, 🤟👍
ATTENTION CARRHART. Please sponsor Silas, send him and his Crew a bunch of Work Gear and they will make you PROUD. THANK YOU!! 🚜
The old fridge would make an idea smoker. I would have a blast looking threw that stuff. Take care
Cool.
This is going to be a good cleanup of this farm. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍
Gold mine ! Lol wish i was there
I love these treasure hunting videos, youre so lucky to have these places that have things like this, If I were there Id be there all day no internet for me!

What a great old barn. Sad to see it go
Amazing 😮

You get to some cool places 😎
Happy new year from down under
Great find on the starters and generators at the current scrap price of 50 cents a pound they add up quick.
Again a fun one to watch out i like your video's and love to watch them your make some good content keep up the good work
