Great find on the axle. Good gears for a tall tire. That little dart and the cj5 were in real good shape as far as I could tell. Thanks for taking us along, can't wait to see what the axle goes in.
It was very cool tagging along at the swap meet. $2,000 for that Chevy mud trucks seem like a deal. It looks like you picked up a few acres thing items at a good price 👍 thanks for dragging us along 👍✌️🇺🇲
Been pretty much a month since I put out a vid. Got myself juggling so many things that I can not get anything accomplished enough to make a finished video it seems
Swap meets are always cool. People empty out sheds and garages to put them on display. Prices are 😑 most of the time, but you can definitely find good deals on rebuildable parts
Damnned if I know why I love swap meets so much. Maybe it is a childhood connection. When I was growing up in Las Vegas, the family would always go to the swap meet at the local drive in theater almost every Sunday. It was not automotive, but just general yard sale kind of stuff.
I knew it was for something like that but am bewildered at the high price for it. Not like it is from a rare musclecar with high demand for restoration parts. Would be great for a rat rod-ish build, but not at that price
Those Predator carbs are great for drag racing my Dad had ran them for years very responsive and snappy flows great hard to find gaskets but not hard to make them 😅
23:45... Guy needs to put those heads on eBay. If they are genuine Boss 351 castings, out here in California they're worth three times that price, but settin 'em out on a table at a Chevy swap in Wisconsin isn't gonna move them.
Even though most swap meets are heavier on chevy stuff, this one seemed extra light on ford stuff. I was looking for a 302 duraspark distributor and a performer 460 intake- only found one distributor but couldnt come to an agreement on price and never saw any aftermarket 460 intakes whatsoever.
That general kind of stying is what I would like for my Ronchero project. Cant seem to come across the right combination of style, bolt pattern, width, diameter, backspacing and most importantly, price.
To me, there are certain elements that should be retained to be able to still call it a mower/tractor. No bike or ATV engines, no suspension, rear wheel drive only. I am not dictating how others build their own junk, but more of a "keeping the spirit of the concept" kind of thing. That being said, I missed out on a dirt cheap 4x4 ATV a couple of weeks ago that I wanted to use the 4x4 components from to build a 4x4 mower/tractor
I went and I saw a ton of over priced junk that has been there for years and most of it was ruined from water damage over all the years, this show is not what it used to be
Thanks for taking us along with you to the swap meet👍lots of interesting stuff.
Thanks for watching

I am thinking about converting the axle to 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern, weld the diff and adding disk brakes.
I smell "rock-crawler"!
Looked like a great day out, few treasures, hope you all enjoyed the day,thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Alwaus enjoy a day at the swap meet!

The truck was rough, but I think a good muddin truck should be kind of rough and tumble.
Great to see you back! Makes any day a great one!

Your excitement for the swap meet has me excited for the swap meet.

Love a good Swap Meet!!!!!!!!!!!
You and me both, brother!!
@@misfittoys8883 👍👍
Great video thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
Cars and cameras built a 85+ HP mower that did over 100+mph. Then they just built one using a 450 cc motorcycle engine that absolutely rips!
To be honest, they did not build a mower. They built a go cart with a mower hood and grille hung on it.
@@misfittoys8883 ok
Not diminishing what they built. It is definitely cool. But, yeah, it is a go kart with mower sheetmetal
I almost thought the black and red beadlocks were the ones I ran on my Comanche for a little bit when I first put it together.
That p1800 for that price is a steal! Especially as an estate. Buy it and sell it to someone in Sweden. Worth at least the double.
21:20... THAT is for a Ford T-950. Super Duty Tractor truck from 61 to 66
I knew it was for something like that but am bewildered at the high price for it. Not like it is from a rare musclecar with high demand for restoration parts. Would be great for a rat rod-ish build, but not at that price
That John Deere mower would make one hell of a cool mud mower with one of the little 3/4cyl diesels out of their bigger mowers and geared for torque
Those Predator carbs are great for drag racing my Dad had ran them for years very responsive and snappy flows great hard to find gaskets but not hard to make them 😅
Used to run one when I was mud racing years ago. Still have it stashed away in cabinet
Swap meet season Is staring over here to 😍
Where would that be?
@@misfittoys8883 Australia mate swap meets happen here during the cooler months
I would have guessed Australia by your username/title
That little jeep. There's a guy actually making a ,1000 mile road trip in on through Moab. I think his channel is called. J&C adventures.
I saw that one but couldnt really get very interested

The Kindig Carb nightmare I use to live.
Add a idle circuit they said,
Drill out the nozzle holes on the fuel flapper they said.
😄👍👍👍👏👏👏cool
Thanks
500 for the wheels and tires at the beginning really wasn’t a bad deal. I’ll have to watch the rest and see what you come up with…

Hey you could always make the crippler 4wd and put like a 500+cc engine in it and then off-road it.👌

Bite my Wisconsin ares 😂😂😂

All swap meets have declined over the last 20 years or so. I can think of at least three that I used to attend that do not even exist anymore
