All across the country now people selling vehicles for waaaay too much money. 5 years ago I bought a 1970 C20 with receipt for a crate motor that only had 4300 miles on it, no rust, I drove it home and licensed it for 4 years before I decided to build it my way. Oh yeah I paid 1,000 dollars for it
I didn't know rust cost that much? Probably can find a rot free western car that runs for less than trying to restore what are really parts cars, like rust free glass. Gives a new meaning to a Rot Rod.
Thank you for the videos. I enjoy the swap but I enjoy the cars for sale more. How do you find out about all the swaps? I used to find them in the paper but I dont take it any more. I needs some parts for my project car. Thank you again
First thing before buying is look underneath....on a lift is best. Eyeball frame.. suspension, hoses, cables and the floor. So many cars have sat with flat tires on wet grass, snow, rain...eats the frame up with rhe floors ..maybe not restorable...
Looking at that 1940 Standard Coupe for $7500 is a steal! I bought my 40 Deluxe Coupe in Calif. in 2002, about the same condition and I paid $9000 for it. Spent eight years completely restoring it into a Resto-Mod w/Mustang II suspension and 351 W running gear.
@@THROTTLEPOWERThe wife and I went to car meets on weekends, but being ready to retire, I sold it to a friend who wanted to enter it in custom car shows. I was surprised when he won first place in the Resto-Mod class, at the Long Beach Concours De Elegance car show in 2012.
Appreciate the time you spend filming these ... most of these look like projects that ran out of time/money/ or enthusiasm ... I may be getting too old myself (kinda like those folks selling the cars) ... I am looking for a 1966 Dodge Monaco 500 (buckets) or non-500 (bench seat) 2-door hardtop with the 383-4V (Carter AFB) ... my Dad owned one ... Thank You Keith Chicago IL
A few at a decent price, but most are way overpriced. I'd be embarrassed to ask some of those prices! I was thinking of selling or trading my 47 Ford Deluxe project, but seeing these, I think I'll keep it! Mine is in way better shape and I didn't give near that much for it!! I haven't gone to the Duck Tail for a few years, looks like I haven't missed much.
I like to compare what it would cost to build one of these cars compared to what I can buy a 1998 to 2004 Corvette that needs nothing. Unless you enjoy sanding rust, there is no reason to buy these heaps at these prices.
as a restored 1927 Caddy Limo(not a rust bucket), it would be priceless, as a Rat rod it wouldn't be worth dirt. You would Destroy a piece of Automoble History? to me that's Sad. agree to disagree
Yes, sir, it is, and it's not a Fairlane, either. It's a Custom model, as is evident because of the lack of exterior window trim. Cool car, though. Great video, thanks for posting.
Seem to remember there was.... Sometimes I won't film something if kids or something/someone that shouldn't be in the back ground. Can't really remember why I didn't show it.
The area I tried growing up in there's was a guy named Bobby with an old Holmes Wrecker.Owned about a fourteen acre auto salvage farm house . Anyhow he would pull you out of almost any mess you drove into for Twenty dollars.Anytime any day or night, Anyhow we had this saying Call Bobby and the person would look at you in wonder 🤔🤠. And have pull your piece of junk to the House.❤
You ask most of them if they got pictures,,how the car looked before resto/mod and get mad,,just wanted to see if he Red Firebird looks mighty dandy now,,but who knows,,how,,before,,the 48/49 Ford F100 ,'Barn Find' great project,,that '75 Camaro nice too,,no Monte Carlo's (1970-77)
A couple decent deals but it's likely everyone left with what they brought except maybe Doc, if his 41 Ford looked as good in person as it does on video he had it priced to sell imo. Thanks for the vid I enjoyed watching.
Man ! Since these car shows ( Barrett Jackson, mecum, ect.... Come on TV, prices have went * crazy on cars, even on parts ! The little mans been rooted OUT ! .👎
@@THROTTLEPOWER I take it back; got wrong impression with all the hulks. As video progressed, there were quite a few good cars and trucks. The asking prices for the decent and good quality cars was sobering.
@carlcampbell6827 I understand.... Like any Swap Meet, some good stuff and some High price stuff.... There were a few good buys, and I also saw several get sold.
1978 Buick Lasabre...$6,700., those are junk...I wouldn't buy it for more than $500. to run it over the salty roads winter for a year or two. Ugly car.
@@THROTTLEPOWER Yes, the '41 Ford..docs car...for 22k, best value of the day. Those ''86 and '87 C10 and GMC trucks listed for $6,500 to $6,700. (are basically field trucks, cleaned up, barely runs and drives) those are $1,500. trucks all day here in Texas with less rust and rot too. I was amazed at how high those truck prices were. Some of those 10k trucks, at that auction, we can buy here for 3 to 4k with less rust. Not to be negative..it's just what i'm used to here in Texas. I drive a 1989 GMC sierra, no rust, total solid bed, runs great, great compression...all rebuilt, new parts everywhere, it's like a new truck with old paint....I can only sell that for $800. to $1,500. max...people offer me $600.
I've seen better in a junk yard the one thay got hear half the shit is missing and have fun trying to find parts for it because if you put after market parts that don't fit right looks like cheap crap your just wasting your time and money and don't tell people it's just like new can't be and won't be its just junk scrap metal 😂
Those "Square Body" Chevy Pickup's We're NOT Overpriced In My Area Of Central Pennsylvania. That Blue 1981 Was Very Fair Priced Indeed. Depending Upon If It Had A V-8 Engine And 4-Speed Granny Low First Gear Gear. I Own One Like It That I Bought In 1979, And Paid $6,200 For Mine BRAND NEW. With NO Computer Bull Sheet On It And Room Enough Under The Hood That I Could Crawl Inside Of It.
The ACTUAL 1961 FORD Black And White Police Car Displayed A Give-Away That You Missed. Having A Back Licence Plate On It Saying FIFE. Which Must Have Meant Barney Fife, Who Was The Jittery Deputy Sheriff, (Don Knotts), On The Early 1960's Comedy Andy Griffith Show. Obviously Must Have Been WAY BEFORE Your Time KIDDO...
Sad to see that the drug epidemic has hit the used junk market hard. That can be the only conclusion one could come to that individuals are pricing these trailer queens at these absurd prices. Or, comedy. Could be comedy. I did laugh at the prices that these goobers were asking. So, it’s either they’re either baked or have a good sense of humour.
THOSE OLD 30’S AND 40’S 2 DOOR COUPES ARE THE BEST. SO COOL, EVEN THE STOCK ONES. ONE OF MY FAVORITE IS THE 40 AND 41 WILLYS.
So true and the Willys is one of my favorites too!
That 1960 Oldsmobile with new interior is a good buy. Greetings from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍
It sure is Jeremy! 👍🙂
1927 Cadillac limo is a great find.i love it. Greetings from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍
It sure is! 🙂

I agree a few years ago I sold my 72 monte for Peanuts,now there over pricing for triple the value it's worth.😮
Yes, prices have really gone up!
Yea, there are a few I wish I'd keep too Robert.
That’s because the dollar is worth less. Let’s go Brandon

Thank you!!!!!!
51:30 I'm looking at that red 1971-72 Buick Skylark. (In the background)
I think I remember that car!
Where I used to live in Indiana I used to go to the show a lot this is an awesome show
So true Dave!!!!!!!!

15:36 that car does look like happy days 😎👍
It does!!!!!!!!!!
Or Biff from Back to the Future
lol Love the sound of those Indiana crickets :) Buddy Holly would have enjoyed that.
I think so too, really ads to the vibe!
I’d be interested in the 40 ford, of the 63 Chevy panel truck, how often do you run across an a100 dodge coe pickup, or 40 dodge coupe?
So very true, you just don't see those to often.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
55 Buick is sweet!!! There’s a lot of sweet rides there! 55 Chevy too!
Yes it was!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job !!!
Thank you Bill, so glad you enjoyed.
Just seeing this Great video 👍

Glad you enjoy the videos Raymond. Most of them are on Facebook and/or they are the same time the following year. So I'll look for them then.
Some of these vehicles are to cool.

So glad you enjoy the vids!!!! Don't see many '66 Monaco's out there, that would be a GREAT car to have.
