I always enjoy it when two of my favorite u-tubers meet. That being Silas and Mr. Good Pliers. I get the feeling that they really respect each other even though Silas is a scrapper and Mr. Good Pliers hates to see any vehicle scrapped.
Those little pieces in the 53 Ford taillight lenses are call CAT'S EYES when you step on the brake pedal, they light up like cat's eyes. They go way back in the 40's/50's I know because I am 85 years old.
Mr., thank you for taking the time and showing us all this stuff that most of us has never seen before. Really interesting. Your UA-cam channel is very interesting. I like to see all the old stuff there. I grew up as a kid with.
Silas, Your small plastic cars are from the late 50s and early 60s. They are MPC cars of the world. They came in large bags at Woolworths for 98 cents. They did do well on Ebay.
I be a kid in a candyshop at that swap meet ,so many cool vintage stuffs unlike the modern junk & cheap imported junk near my place, the prices are good too,i am glad that you find unique items & make a little profit on them too
Silas, That was really fun to watch! I used to go to swap meets every weekend to buy vacuum tube electronics stuff. I enjoyed it a great deal and mad many friends. Now that I can no longer walk I really miss going. That’s why this video was especially meaningful to me. Peace my friend, DrRick
Thank you for a big trip down memory lane with my dad much needed. Every time we went shopping i would always get mad cause to me it was all junk but to him it was gold. Oh and i always had to take it all to the truck lol i sure do miss him thanks again
Swap Meets are always sooooo Interesting as You never Know what Gem You can pick up ! You got some very Good "Smalls" and some for a great Bargain - well done Silas ! Bucket of Yard Sticks - Peddle Car and all those Cool Emblems and much More ! Toy Trucks and Cars as well ! Enjoyed the Video very much and many Cheers from Australia !
👍👌👏 Silas strikes again! Congratulations 🎉 for all these great purchases. Some pieces were sold quite cheap. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and especially health to all involved people
Wow I have that crane myself I'm here in Canada I bought it as I was a young boy I'm almost 60 now p and I still have it that one is so cool I'm glad you bought it!
Great video! I love going to places like that. I can take ages going round and will end up with loads of things I don't need! Like you say remembering where you left stuff is a pain after you have been there for hours!😊
The little plastic car's remind me of the pediatricians office when I was a kid, after being seen the doctor would let you pick out a toy from what he called the toy drawer. Thanks for the memories.
You should make a point to come to the Hershey antique car show/ swap meet. It’s amazing what you’ll find there. It’s usually the first week of October. It’s huge. Advertising, cars, parts. Everything you could think off. My buddies dad always sells a few cars there.
I’m with you, you do the humping, buying, etc. When you sell? That’s feeding your family. I NEVER TRY TO CUT A PERSONS PRICES BY BEING NASTY? Nope I will pay a fair price, I figure that you found it, you’re not trying to burn anyone. I’ve stopped buying and selling, too old. I’ve seen some of these cars you sell for rebuilding, when I was building I would have bought a half dozen of yours at your prices. I loved getting a body straight, brakes, running gear nice. Sell without engine, wiring and trannies. It helped guys that wanted a straight body. I made money, they had a chance to build their sweet rides. 😊Silas, we would have been great buds! I love recycling yards!!!!!!! I love shoe box fords, coupes etc. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love watching your videos and I can't tell you how much I admire you asking the price and most always you just pay this helps both you and the customer I admire this I also think you are well known at these auctions people are really nice to you, I am still waiting for you to use a pull behind wagon to put your stuff in you leave so much you might forget to gather your things anyway have a good one Sylas keep on doing you brother, 😅
Hey Silas that manure spreader has a cool guarantee decal on the side, it's a guarantee that the sides will never rot out in the lifetime of the spreader. LoL we run 3 of them and I don't know what they made the sides out of for steel but everything else has been rebuilt but the sides are finally getting wore and thin in spots and going to be a winter project to reskin them. But anyways another home run video and I hope your father is doing better. Keep up the good work.
I think you made some really good buys! As long as I can double my money or more it’s all good. Sometimes I make bad buys but I just view them as learning opportunities and as long as I can make enough to get my money back and pay for my time and labor then I’m OK with that. 😂 If I have too I will bundle them with something else or other things to promote their sale.
Good day Silas! I'd say you did right well myself! Although I can be a bit more of a haggler. However if something is priced reasonable to start, I won't. I get offended, when I have things already priced at 50% of their worth, and people try to offer half of that. Don't insult me! I price things to sell, I want a sale, but I'm not giving stuff away! You always seem a pretty fair man.
A month late but still relevant. Sure like your buying style. If it's a good deal you don't haggle, all you say is, I can do that. And there's a lot to be said for common courtesy. Yes indeed, I do like your style
Did you point out that 56 Chevy 2-door hardtop and he was going to crush it? Is about a third of the way through your video $20 for all those emblems you bought early on, it took more in labor to take that off 📴 of the vehicles
Thanks Silas for taking us to the swap meet. It's fun to see what's being sold (and bought). Have you found a Mopar sign yet, one you like? Thanks for the nice video. I appreciate it.
Gday Silas, Silas, we don’t seem to have those markets where we live so I’m so envious. In the beginning of your video I saw two blue rocker cover's , some people are turning them into desk and wall lights. That’s something I would like to try. Anyway great video. From Down Under.
"video camera" Haha, that is called a "motion picture camera" or a "home movie camera." Didn't start called them videos until we started using videotape.
I ended up with a collection of ice picks... they were in a lot I bought at an auction. I felt like Lizzy Borden's cousin Ice pick Ida when I found them. Lol I only have a few yard sticks, my favorite is a John Deer cane
Silas there was a small white motorcycle gas tank at the 20 minute mark if you can find that again it looks like a Honda Z50 tank let me know if you can find it next time I am interested!!
Did I make some good buys or did I mess up?
What is junk to one person may be very valuable to another. I think you have done well. You bought some nice stuff. 😎👍
I think you did good.
I also think you should get a booth at the swap meet so you can get all the good stuff first. Do it at least once.
As they say, only buy stuff you like.
This video you did that.
I think that you did fine 👍
Do you have any door latches for the a 67 mustang?
I appreciate you not beating up the vendors over price! Let them make a few bucks and make some friends. I respect you for that!

Awesome video love the flea market and of course the junk yard ! Good combo video ! A++++++. Always look forward to your next adventure 👍

25:40 Looks like a picture tube/ lens from a rear projection TV. There were three in each set: one blue, one green and one red. (1980)
The tail light lenses with the jewels in them are Blue Dots. Popular in the 50's and 60's. At a distance makes the light look purple.
Lots of good stuff! My favorite is the Amish Buggy sign.
Had fun hanging out with you silas excellent guest aperince by Mr pliers cheers 🥂 😊
Thumbs up, great adventure for a Monday, miss doing swap meets and flea marketing
I be a kid in a candyshop at that swap meet ,so many cool vintage stuffs unlike the modern junk & cheap imported junk near my place, the prices are good too,i am glad that you find unique items & make a little profit on them too
I love it when Silas takes us all along to swap meets. There's just so much cool stuff I've never seen before 🙂👍
Wow! Even with the dollar exchange, everything you bought would be more than double the price here in central Canada. Great prices!!
Thanks again for a wonderful video. I'm watching at 12:30-1:30am.
Silas,
That was really fun to watch! I used to go to swap meets every weekend to buy vacuum tube electronics stuff. I enjoyed it a great deal and mad many friends.
Now that I can no longer walk I really miss going. That’s why this video was especially meaningful to me.

Thanks for the video. I appreciated the hell out of it.
Great buys
I remember getting that playart tow truck for Christmas when I was a kid.....it was a part of a set of 9 or 10.
Very awesome finds. Wish I had somewhere to put some of the stuff you have but I think my wife would throuw away LOL Keep up the good work
Can confirm. Had a '93 Ford with a ball joint failure. Learned my lesson about ignoring squeaky noises.
Hey There Mr Silas Of Adventures Made From Scratch
Enjoy your videos. Thanks for taking me along.
Prices seem good. Love the Chevy tailgate!
Back in the 70's, those yellow caution signs used to be on K-96 and Yoder Road.
Excellent Siilus ! That Caution slow vehicles sign, should really be gifted to The Amish Community 🙂
Wow I have that crane myself I'm here in Canada I bought it as I was a young boy I'm almost 60 now p and I still have it that one is so cool I'm glad you bought it!
Lots of good stuff 👏
Great video buddy, nice change of things. Your southern Indiana fan. 😊
5:50,i sold 2 of those old Plymouth hubcaps for more than you paid for the set plus the 2 cool Dodge ones ,went to a movie prop car 🎬
I've never seen anybody pay asking price like you do! All those prices are negotiable
29 sec ago, open and let the fun began. Thanks again about your vids.
Great video!
I love going to places like that. I can take ages going round and will end up with loads of things I don't need!

If you're not careful you're gonna be famous pretty soon Silas - 125,000 people watching your channel!, that's incredible, great work!
Americana!!
Cool video thanks 😊
Silas really enjoyed this video I would have loved to get in there and pick through some of that stuff, real good video🎉 Thank you sir o🎉🎉
Who can live without a bucket of yardsticks!
Gotta know how you measure up.
I think you made some really good buys! As long as I can double my money or more it’s all good. Sometimes I make bad buys but I just view them as learning opportunities and as long as I can make enough to get my money back and pay for my time and labor then I’m OK with that. 😂 If I have too I will bundle them with something else or other things to promote their sale.

13:31 pretty sure the grille is from a 1932 Hudson 8 Coupe
30:20 ,i probably stick that on my SpeedQueen washing machine 😁
I think you needed a little red wagon to put all your haul in to drag it around 👍👍🇦🇺
Taking Silas to a swap meet is a greater thing than taking a girl to Tiffany's 😂
That is my kinda sale love it keeps us smiling
You made good buys
U are doing good on everything
Cool stuff you can barter for beans when shtf!
👍🤠
Great job on another great video
Lo ve that orange cyclone car buddy
A month late but still relevant. Sure like your buying style. If it's a good deal you don't haggle, all you say is, I can do that. And there's a lot to be said for common courtesy. Yes indeed, I do like your style
Nice Matchbox crane truck. They were made between 1965 and 1969.
That place is better than any swap meat.I've ever been and I go twice a year
Did you point out that 56 Chevy 2-door hardtop and he was going to crush it? Is about a third of the way through your video $20 for all those emblems you bought early on, it took more in labor to take that off 📴 of the vehicles
very enjoyable video Silas 👍

I know a friend who uses old manure spreaders for raised gardens
Cool bean
Yes Sir!!!
My dad’s 69 is that teal color and all original just like the tailgate you bought.
Silas you should have a stall and take some of the weird and wonderful hub caps etc
I think you made some great deals
Thank you I will be paying attention. I know in one of your videos you threw out some numbers on cabs and wall art , thank you for the response.
Hellow buddy so,try I'm late good luck
"video camera" Haha, that is called a "motion picture camera" or a "home movie camera." Didn't start called them videos until we started using videotape.

those little jewels are called blue dots and were illegal at least here in Illinois
The 53 tail lights pretty cool my wife has one and a 54
Speed queen was located in Ripon Wisconsin
Great video. I wonder if there are any dealerships on any of those yardstick.
Silas there was a small white motorcycle gas tank at the 20 minute mark if you can find that again it looks like a Honda Z50 tank let me know if you can find it next time I am interested!!
LoL I was at a swap meet myself this weekend.
An automobile called Speed Queen.
👍😆
The Coca-Cola bow tie, as you called it, is called a fish tail sign because of the ends looking like a fish tail.
Bonus AMFS again!
I didn’t see your big grill did you forget ?
As people start to know you. Do you feel they drive the price on things up ?
"Pssst, here comes money bags"
No, they actually lower their prices. They know I’m not there to negotiate or waste time. That’s worth a lot to people by itself.
It would be great if all customers bought like you. The customers I see want everything for 1/4-1/2 the price
The box of toy cars would be cool key chains
Fab Rats might need that jeep speedometer
