- Mr. Goodpliers returns to the junkyard auction site to load antique cars and collector trucks to trailer them home! Some of these old vehicles didn't make it, so some footage shows the ones stacked on loads bound for the scrap yard.

Hi Tim, that was great and sad at the same time, I used too do this myself 40 years ago. I used to scramble to save 55,56 and 57 Chevys where ever I could find them. You are doing the right thing, those cars that your saving are gold, those people who don't understand are losing out. Those people who used to mock me years ago have said what smart guy I am in getting them when they were cheap. 👍👍👍👍👍❤🇺🇸
Kenny Sherrill, I to saved a 55 Nomad in 1974 and still have it today. Now that I'm retired, I'm building another from rust and making the parts I can't find. Do you know of many tri 5 parts still?
From your photo, Thank you for your service. I served as an Airdale in the Navy and worked on A7s way back and made the 1st med cruise on the Ike in 78-79. I still have a love of these cars. I guess it's a curse.
Best part was the man singing
Thanks to you and Joe for saving as much as you did! I expect you’ll be driving that ‘61 Chevy next week!😉
Wow!!! This is the dreamiest dreamland video to date!!!!
Staggering amount of old iron on that site. No time to properly sort through it.
I liked all of the pieces that you guys ended up buying. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏👏
..yep, I know about the "no time to properly sort through it" thing...lots of good parts lost that way...I participated in helping clean up a property owned by a deceased friend recently..it's all "hurry hurry hurry"..got to close on the property...we wound up scrapping a lot of good parts.. :(
Thanks for sharing, people don't have any idea what it like to restore an old vehicle ,it's precious when I drive em around town , most love em, even if yesterday in primer, keep up the great job , God bless yall real good.
Tim, it's pretty cool that you & Joe saved some of that vintage iron!! Hopefully some of the cars you bought will someday see the road!! Be safe, God Bless!!
Tim, another great one! Entertainment, singing, and gunshots all in one fine video. Thanks
That sounded like some kind of 30 round clip!
There is a real art to loading these cars/ trucks.
Looks like you guys saved some Future Hot Rods. 😎👍🇨🇦
always enjoy these vids.. thanks !
Thanks so much for your kind words vdub, and thanks for stopping by the channel!
Great Video! This Hobby and Scenes like what you captured in this video were once available to to the Average Car lover. They are becoming increasingly rare as time passes bye. The purchase and restoration of an old automobile is reaching staggering cost that have limited the Hobby to the Rich alone. I started buying my first old cars back in the late 1960's just as the " OLD JUNK YARD" days started winding down and everything going to the crusher. At least I got a taste of having fun on a " Shoe String Budget ". But Alas,, those days are gone now but fondly remembered indeed. I know that GENERATIONS ahead will still sit down enjoy this video saying " Can you believe Junk and Salvage Yards were once around like this one we are watching now".
gr8 to see a lot of these old cars being recycled, good job guys, keep the vids coming, we love it here in australia !!!
Been to one like that. Bought 8 cars. Spent three days shuttling them to the lot. 150 mile trip each time!
Without actually being there it is hard to grasp the huge volume of cars and parts that were there. There was probably a large number of body parts of rare cars amongst the mases now too far gone and/or incomplete to recognize and save. I would have liked to seen a drone view of this place and then a time lapsed photography of the area before the sale and gradual cleanout of the area. Thanks for the follow up video.
Beautiful!!
Awesome cars. I liked the guy singing the railroad song too.
GREAT VIDEO !!! THERE GOING HOME >> SOME OF THEM,,. PEACE...
That looked like a good time. Lots hidden gems
Good job Pliers.
Rambler convertible. Wow, can’t remember the last time I saw one of those. Lincoln coupe a find someone might appreciate. As for how bad a body can be, there are guys like Scott from Cold Warm Motors that can fabricate anything from nothing. The guy is amazing. He can’t be the only one that can do that. The Dodge truck must be a 25-27? Night video was fine! Thanks for posting it.
That skidsteer was worth it's weight in gold!
The trick is that the rubber tracks help to plant the weight of the machine and give it more contact with the ground. That gives it much more stability than a wheeled skid loader, which tends to tip if too much weight on the forks puts it off balance.
This is a beautiful thing! Thanks for saving them
The car's that you have kept are old beautiful girls and I wish I had enough money to get some of them.
Keep the good work up👍🏆
Joe is on a buying spree... good for him.
He didn't show all that I bought. I bought 17 actually.
@@josephs44 Thats great ! Buy more !
great load up mates. you guys know how to pack em.
I remember driving a '61 chevy around as a young guy. Of course, it was only 10 years old. Sold it for $100.
Great story. Assuming the car wasn't really old and you weren't 10 last year. Neither was I haha. $100 is a lot more money back then. But I get it. I can remember my dad saying take the wrenches. Out at the farm that meant that he's going to park another older car out back. He wanted to be sure we got the battery out of it. Even then his little sad because the old cars had history with us and odd. We took care of those old cars and then it was time to simply drive down back and replace them. Wouldn't it be fun to be eight years old again?
@@chuckcarguy2651 Yeah, driving a '65 Dart (35k miles on it) when I was 18 and 19 (back in 1971-72). Also had a '49 International p/u all in like new shape in about 1973, as well as a '68 Rambler Ambassador. Yeah, childhood was GREAT back then!
I watched the cars being loaded for one of two destinations. It was great to see the Corvair, the Thunderbird and the two 51 Ford Vickys leave for new homes and not a crusher.
Love the two '51 Vics at 44:00 PLUS a great rendition of "Old 97". Wish we were neighbors. (BTW, there's a '51 Ford Fordor, complete with a flat six (yes, a six) at my fave boneyard here in Waterloo, Iowa. Guy wants 800.00 for it.)
That cab on the school bus is SWEET! Saved I hope ?!?!
It was from a World War II Dodge command car. Super neat piece, but there just wasn't enough there to justify doing something with. It had been cut in half, the floor was rusted out, and when it was pulled off the frame, they twisted it out of square. We were three hours from home, and the scrap guys were moving blazing fast, so we had to really prioritize what we took and what we left.
Lotta stuff
Love it🖖😊👉😉👈✌️👍
It was packed... tons of tonnage
Kool cars and a great vid mate 🤘
This is a joke of course lol. But when the ol timer went to singing, someone in the background didn't like it and was trying to shoot whoever was singing lmbo !!!! Perfect timing for that to happen lol. Awesome video of all the rusty goodies
22:42 joe the skeptic ha ha legendary
Wish you would come to Seiling Oklahoma sometime soon I've got several still in pretty good shape..Ronnie Hanson..everyone knows me here
I also have a 52 Ford Victoria 2 door hardtop. It's restored and it's fun to drive when it runs. It has a Ford small block in it:-)
thanks for the video!
Thank you for stopping by the channel Mie!
Neat auctoin, I wanna get time to go see the guy in the snap on racing coats place, they say its the motherload hoard, And he lives closebye im pretty sure.
Thanks for taking us along! Did you ever get the hood opened on that Morris Minor?
It's fine, on is on. Fairly certain someone was regretting that remark when they found out that they didn't have enough tongue weight.
Lots of bumpers = Lots of tongue weight
History!!!
I think u scored on that ss Malibu original convertible may be some day we well c that one on the road again with. all that rusty gold u bought as well as some of the other's great veido !!!!!
Oh wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
28:05 that silver convertible looks cool
Guys = When your wife thinks you have too much rusty gold just show her this yard full.... 😆
And for the less 'friskey' we have Stamp Collecting*.
45:45 Pontiac Torpedo has cool lines to it. Just recently been noticing cool styling of late 40's GM's
Boy, would I like to see that '47 Pontiac Torpedo restored! It looks as if its the "Sedan Coupe" model [dumb name], but I can't tell if its the Deluxe, or the Custom accessory package. Did you notice if it has the in-line 6, or the V-8? It's possible it might be a Steamliner, but I think its a Torpedo. Either way, that has got to one of the coolest cars to ever grace the American road! I think you are correct, that it is too far gone to restore, but a lot of '47 Torpedos are still on the road. It will make a great parts car for somebody!
It had an Olds motor in it for some reason.
Wow! I'd hate to be behind any of those loads on the freeway. I'm sure things were falling off. Enjoy
..my luck, those DOT Enforcement guys would be giving me the blue lights...write up for unsafe load...
46:09 I'm gettin' weak in the knees at that old Pontiac; my God what a solid car. (I gotta take a break LOL.) I think I know where there's a pre-'49 Pontiac also.
Very sad. Glad you got what you could. That Dodge Bros. Truck looks like a 24-26 era. Love the disc wheels.. Thanks for saving that Fat Fendered Pontiac. Even though it got kissed hard in the right rear. What state was this in ? If this were Pennsylvania, there'd be nothing to haul away. Lotta rusty cars in Pa. Awesome video so far.
Thanks for stopping by the channel William! This was in Iola Kansas
I've been all over Allen County, and don't recall seeing this.
And then seventy two years after this day or my age, you have went to the great tool house in the sky and someone is cleaning up the rust ranch.... hopefully only half of what you hauled in might be there as the rest was fixed and still in someones garage. The worst thing that can happen as I did see happen was a large ranch with very large collection of cars that were from fairly new to some were forty years at that time and place.... It was nineteen fifty one and they wanted steel for the korean war so all was loaded for maybe a nickel on the dollar spent to get. Overnight that man felt broke and a month later committed suicide. He was my uncle. Our government of by the people sure didn't have any heart that day... I was a little guy missing my uncle and just didn't know what was going on
Thanks
Thank you for stopping by the channel, Tim!
You think some of those you bought may survive and been restored?
I know where 3 yards are here in my city. One yard been closed for 35 years another is barely known the third is the best of all with it's 12 aircraft hangers full
The rambler convertible would be a rare car now wouldn't it? and at 35:32 those lights in the chevy look like aircraft landing lights. I had some on a Plymouth Fury years ago with a huge relay.
RE STORE ABLE from one store to another....
Hello Mr goodpliers again a question all these cars are for to buy parts or are some of them to restore?Or depends on the buyers. You know I ask a loth in my small island in the Caribbean you don't have these goodies. Maybe a yard with few cars nothing fancy.Thats why I am so enthusiastic. 👌👌👍👍👍👍
Wow! Thanks for stopping by the channel, Ewald! We do a little of both, it just depends on the car. The rougher ones get parted out, the better ones go complete for restoration projects. I can imagine on an island there is not a huge need for cars and trucks, so they don't pile up in huge numbers once they are finished with their useful life.
ok so to clarify, the ones stacked are going to the yard, the ones not stacked are not?
Correct
@@mr.goodpliers6988 ah thats good, the impalas arent being scrapped yet haha
If this is how you handle cars that you're "bringing home", I'll be sure to never sell you or point you to any antiques I know for sale. " I bought this cool ." --> *stacks another car on top of it*.
haha
This footage was a mix of my loads and the scrap guys' loads. Mine was the single car trailer pulled by the white Escalade, stacked gently and respectfully
Always the ones with the American flag profile pic, getting all offended by something they're not paying attention to, and not understanding,
How much was the skid steer driver getting per car to load?
Are windshield's and rear glass still available for these cars?
many yankee spiders heading with yankee rustin' hulk steel to chinese blast furnaces
durn metal mites just about consumed the whole place ..
I could use the grille out of that Buick right at the end.
Or buy my '40 Roadmaster coupe and save it.
Old boys🇺🇸
Hello Tim….do these cars that you purchased come with a title?
I need that 62 for parts 😉
Check out the next video, I will walk around the two door HT and a four door. They are currently available as I write this
All the Model T fenders in that pile at 00:32
How many bumpers did you end up with?
Next video will show a rundown of the parts. I'm guessing around 150 bumpers or so
44:04 - 45:00 You're Golden!!!
That Ford wagon is a 54. At 2:09.
I love vids like this! Wish we could save 'em all, but we do the best we can. What part of the world are you in? Kansas? Nebraska? Looks like the rust worms aren't as well fed as here in Iowa.
Thanks for stopping by the channel! We are in south central Kansas
@@mr.goodpliers6988 what part? I'm in Wichita.
When do the restorations start? Or, are you just collecting?
didnt you see joe's response and inverted comma hand signs?
Do you guys have the Glass lens for a 1939 Dodge Sedan n NOT the square style but the tear drop style
Do you just part these cars out,or are some fixable?
It all depends what they are, the condition, and what the market is for them. Really rough or incomplete ones go for parts. I like to see them go on to people who will fix them if possible. And it keeps them moving out faster if the whole vehicle leaves, rather than just a few pieces...
Was that last one he loaded a 1940 Buick Sedan n if yes how much for the turn signal light assembly on the fenders both complete sides chrome n all
you going to restore them ?
where was auction and how much for each car
The auction was in Iola Kansas. The previous "Huge Junkyard Auction" video shows the bid prices for the vehicles
Why don't you have winches on your trailers?
We do. If there is equipment and help there, it saves time just to load them that way
I thought someone bought the '65 Malibu SS...¿¡
*"Damn Shame"!*
What are you going to do with all of those neglected and rusted out vehicles? Are any of them going to be put back on the road?
🙂👍👏
👏👏👏👏👏👊🏻👍🙂
What's the "rust ranch"?
The Rust Ranch is Joe's storage lot of old cars for parts and projects, located just outside of Wichita Kansas. If you want to see what is there, put "Rust Ranch Mr. Goodpliers" in the UA-cam search box and it will pull them up. I have done at least three or four videos there so far. The lineup there changes frequently as some leave and new ones are added. I need to do a current video there to catch up the new arrivals. Joe's contact email is rustranchkansas@gmail.com
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🚘🚗
Agreed with most pics, but could not see one thing worth saving on that Tempest
It's a true GTO with 242 VIN. Desirable muscle car. I'm very tempted to rebuild it. I've had a 68 Charger, 69 Camaro, 70 GTO, and 69 Mustang in this condition. Sold them all to restorers.
I'm seriously contemplating rebuilding this car.
@@mr.goodpliers6988 good luck. Just buy a restored one. To make that a GTO again would take about 100 grand. Keep your dreams real
That '58 Chevy went to the crusher?
Yes it did. It was rusty and missing a lot of the key parts to rebuild it, but still a two door post - not easy to find!
The junkyard nearby does save the older vehicles in rows out back. The Chevy is sitting out there, saved for now. Might be several years that it will sit there
@@mr.goodpliers6988 Ray's or 54 Rebuilders?
director of ops, mister good pliers : 40:32
francis 'chevy' coppola
Do yall run up on car tags/license plates
I have a lot of them. You can send me an email at mrgoodpliers1985@gmail.com for details
@@mr.goodpliers6988 I emailed you
Dude, you can't possibly be selling all these cars as fast as you're buying them. How much room do you have left? When are you gonna run out of money? When will the buying spree end?
at least should have removed the parts such as trim..
which reminds me. if u see a sport hardtop belair, i need an interior chrome piece that goes above the windshield.
I pulled tons (literally) of parts from the scrap guys' cars. Next video will show that stuff. The 56 and 57 Chevy's were pretty shot. Not really just a huge amount on either car worth saving, so I prioritized some of the others with the short time I had. Next video will show the parts haul!
@@mr.goodpliers6988 cool!
maybe some of the panoramic rear window stuff is rare, I'll ask a couple friends what parts they're missing sometime, and maybe you could help us, just if u happen to see parts :)
INeed 63 impala parts?
sad to see them go to scrap, regardless
👍👍👍🙂🤝😎🇺🇸🇺🇸

This means the hoarder wasn't too nasty & sick minded of a person.
If that wasn't the case then the family sends the cars off to the crusher and auction off the land as quickly as they can, not because they're trying to make money but leave that chapter of their life behind them. It's like when Forrest Gump paid for a bulldozer to flatten Jenny's childhood house which belonged to her abusive father.
The really sick hoarders tend to rather see the cars turn into piles of iron dust than to allow somebody who actually wants to do so restore the cars. They see themselves as failure.
Next generations won't miss the toxic hoarders, they started out with nothing and ended up with nothing.
This one was more of a parts business. The owner just decided to retire and move, so this was the method he chose to liquidate
poor old ford
..yep..this looks like another "hurry, hurry, hurry-get rid of everything-and-clean-it -up-so-we-can-sell-the-property" event facilitated by the heirs after the owner has passed away..see it all the time..sadly, this property will probably be developed into a "house farm" with a gate, circular road, and cheaply made(but expensively priced) identical houses spaced approximately 5-10 feet apart...
thats a great idea hauling away tons of worthless rusted junk garbage so it can rot away in some other place
