    Dennis is the most passionate person in Texas for finding, saving and giving rare and desirable vehicles that would've have otherwise never been given a chance to be restored and put back on the road.
    Dennis Collins has the natural ability to bring this into reality and should be know as the "Great Preserver" ! 👌

      @richiemiami Рік тому +2

      he's a business man and only passionate about finding something that is worth more money than he will give so he can make a lucrative profit. passion is when you do it for free without the entanglement of money which only corrupts the subject.

      ​@richiemiami lol someone's mad bro a lot of these he doesn't make what you think on them yeah he makes a profit bro but that's a business but doesn't mean you're not passionate about something it's sad ppl like you think having money or making money ruins things it doesn't it enhances them. But die a bitter old man fine with me 😆 😂

    I always look forward to your content. It’s good seeing Kelsey back in the mix. Also an observation.
    Your interactions with Zach and Alex, especially Alex resemble a father/son vibe. I get the feeling they are more than mere employees. I really hope that’s genuine, because that’s a part of why your content is so positive, uplifting and entertaining.
    God bless, y’all. (Lived in middle Tennessee for 16 years, it rubbed off)

      I doubt it's a facade. For Dennis to maintain that level of genuine kindness from day 1 of his content would be a feat for the ages. I'm sure he has his upset moments but that's just being human.

      That's one of the things that stands out (pun) with these videos; the mutual respect between Denis and crew. I love the way Denis shares his experience and knowledge with the younger members of the team. I've been a weekly follower of the channel for a couple of years now and I'm not even a car or Jeep but rarely will I make it through the weekend without watching the latest episode of Coffee Walk.

    Rumbling thru some old videos & noticed you mentioned loving hush puppies on several occasions. FYI----back in the 1800"s the big Southern houses had kitchens made from stone & along with the fired ovens & open bbq pits which basically were not walled in and sat on the back side of the house. So naturally when cooking started the dogs smelled their way to the ovens/pits and were always under foot & barking for food. An easy way, instead of screaming "Hush Puppy" every minute, was to do this. Cheapest food was dough so they rolled up dough balls with some cracker crust, threw them in some hot oil, cooled them, and threw them on the floor to keep the dogs quiet.

    I got a little emotional seeing this car Dennis. In 1984 i was stationed in northern Italy, Aviano AB. I bought a 1978 Alpha Romeo GT, took it to a shop and the owner/mechanic was a Ferrari factory race mechanic. He had his parked in front of his little shop and to show me he knew his cars, he took me for a ride. Not really fast but i absolute dream to ride in, same year as yours. I left him my car car and got back a Hot Rod Italian car. I fell in love with Ferrari on that day. August, 1984

    17:00 That Bike is a 1995 Huffy Metaloid 383 XL and there were only 300 Produced. Trestle Bridge Frame. Very Very Rare!!! Dennis I Hope You Bought That Bike. This is only the 3rd one I have seen all Orignal. Of the other Two, One was Original and One was Restored. If I had to Rate This One and The Other One I seen about 20 Years ago. Using 1-10 Rating. Let's say the restored was 8/10 because it was restored and had little flaws here and there. The original one was 1/10 Had Deep Rust Issues. This one in your Video would 6-7/10 They Go From 200.00 being worst (missing front wheel ) to 1300.00 The One in this video I would say 700.00-900.00 Range!!

    TYVM for another excellent video & yes it's great seeing Kelsey again.
    Dennis, when it comes to BMX bikes, the "holy grail" IMHO would be a 1980-86 Diamondback frame, because back then they made frames ONLY & even more rare, keep your eyes peeled for Ashtabula forks.
    They're forged one piece & made in Ashtabula, Ohio (near Cleveland).
    I'd like to have another 1981 Schwinn Scrambler. Mine was cherry red, with black mag wheels, red snake belly tires & red anodized Shimano brakes & a red Shimano plastic racing seat & black Schwinn pads.
    Was the most fancy bicycle in town 40 years ago.

    Always good content watching You along with Kelsey, Alex & Zach...Love the food you guys eat to although I do note the use of Fork & Fingers instead of Knife & Fork something I've been taught to use from Chilld-hood..must be Dinning American style...Looking forward to your next Adventure...
