  • Tom drives his trusty 1939 Ford Woodie into the Rocky Mountains, with a stop in Leadville, Colo., where he discovers two dusty Porsches and a long-neglected Karmann Ghia. Later, while descending the mountains ahead of a wicked snowstorm, Tom spots a collection of classics off the highway.

      1987 I bought a 74 Dart from a coworker for $200.00. I didn't tell my wife for 2 weeks, hid it down the block for a few weeks, TLDR; it got towed for parking tickets and I am divoced.

    I like the wooden ramps that race car was parked on; Great idea! That '61 Imperial is a super find. I knew a guy in NJ who bought a mint black one from one of my neighbors families after she passed. I would cut thru her yard on my bike and always stop to look at the car in the garage because it was so long they couldn't close the door; and it was so beautiful. Buddy was an old Chrysler collector and when he took the cover off the '61 Imperial I told him where he got it and he said i was right. That was when i was 35? 21 years ago now and i bet he still has it!

    Love the mini,when growing up i managed to get a worked 1340cc with the sidedraft ida carb coming thru the firewall in front of my gearstick,it was off the hook nuts, ran and drove every single day for the 4 odd years i owned it before selling it to a bro who payed me way more than it was worth, fun days and nights and memories in that awesome little beast, what a phat little ride she was 👌

    I was in the Canadian Rockies recently (visiting from Australia) and on some back roads, felt like I was making my own episode of Mr Hagerty's show (which I love). I came across some amazing old cars going back to the 20s, but most were from the 60s/70s... amazing stuff, wish I could rescue them all. Love the show by the way.

    Great finds. I would lose sleep if I had to chose between keeping my Cooper MKII and an E-type but in the end I think he made the right choice. Personally I would have kept both. And down the road , that 61 Imperial coup, come on! Why is that car not sold, restored or resto modded! If only I live in the US!

    It´s fantastic to see all those and to listen to the "stories" behind, but in somehow it saddens me at the same time...this wonderful cars (the Porsche at the beginning) will never be back on street and this is of course, what they were made for...(best regards from Germany...while I am keeping driving your great cars guys (´65 Ford Mustang and ´63 Corvette C2)).

    I moved to Colorado in 1999 i was only there for 2 years but the first year i was there I worked as a mover. A lot of people out there just have too much money and just move from one mountain to another. But this one guy I couldn't tell you where cause I was still new to the area but seems like it was somewhere near the front range just outside of Denver. This guy had a building on his new property he had already had his cars moved before we moved his household stuff but he had about 30 or 40 of those old Porsche's and a 53 jaguar and a couple of old triumphs. I only got a glimpse of the collection. But a lot of people out there have stuff like that.

    at 10:58 that is actually a 61 Chrysler 4door hardtop and that other one is a 62 Imperial. Big give away between the 60 and 61 chrysler is the taillights.
