bucket seats in corvairs are the same as every other mid sized gm car just the seat tracks are different.
Great job
I can never find a farm auction this cool in my area.
Thanks for sharing these videos.
Thanks for stopping by the channel!
Although Willys was better known for its Jeep line they went back to passenger car production on the North American market from 1952 til 55. Their compact car was sold as the Willys Aero from 52 til 54 then the Bermuda replaced the Aero in 55. I recently found out these cars were sold in the export market until 1962. Its hard to say the exact year of the one shown but made prior to 1955 none the less. The Aero was not a big seller and very rare today.
Those jd combines were a 56-58 for the straight steering column and 59 to63-4 for the angled one
I like the old Willys!!
Merry Christmas Like your films, looking around these Auction junk yards. Many thx from Uk
You do a great job shooting these Auctions, I especially like the long ones, I have a thing for old grain trucks, I’m not sure why lol thanks for what you do!
When it comes to farm auctions, Mr. Badsocket definitely does the best job at documenting them! Check out the "Mortske Repair" channel. A few months ago, he did a video that included a late 40's Chevrolet grain truck. The truck was completely original, including the wood sides to the grain box, which was painted the same color as the truck. Both were that orange color GM used in the late 40's and early 50's. After sitting out on the North Dakota prarrie for God knows how many years, with nothing surrounding the truck but waving grass, the paint had oxidized into the most glorious "sunburned" patina! The problem with a "sunburned" patina like that is, the moment you take it to a wetter climate, the vehicle loses the patina. For so long as it stays put, the patina remains.
Those old horse trailers reminds me that Gerry, New York, Chautauqua County has had a sanctioned rodeo continually since that era. So you are right that rodeos weren't just in the west.Thank you for the great videos Mr Goodpliers.
Enjoyed the vid, wish I was there!
You guys have a nice collection of old two ton trucks
My late uncles where engineers for most of these . That’s a ACE! 😍
Reminds me of the farm auctions we went to when I was growing up. A little surprised the 1962 Chev grain hauler went for about $1,000 more than the 1973 Ford. Those were the common runners back when we farmed back in the 1980's.
I would snap up the 2 Corvairs $300 & 150 not bad. The Willys @ $875 higher than I thought it would go. Likes the car though. The antique carriage so cool and looked good on video and at $325 thought it was a deal. $200 for the 35ish Chev was a good deal. Should be able to make some money on it. Thanks for including the bidding! Who does not like a auction?
Theres a trick to closing a tightened up hood without buckling it above the springs...
The Corvair wasn't as unsuccessful as some like to think, considering it was made 1960-69 and close to 1.8 million were sold during the total run. Chevy had planned to end production in 67 for the introduction of the New Camaro. But after Ralph Nader targeted the Corvair as 1 chapter in his book "Unsafe at any Speed", it was decided to run it a few more years as to not let Ralph win. Overall still cool collector car that can be had at reasonable prices and have a cult following including a national club and many smaller chapters across the US. As for these cars the fellow that bought the blue one is fixing it on his UA-cam channel and the black one is being parted out by another guy.
I remember a guy having a. Corsair van as a kid
The other guy bought the black one his name is Joe and it's on the end of Tim's alias Mr Good pliers video. This one that is. The corvair must pre successful when it was being sold. But definitely runs hot and cold mostly cold in the collector's market. I can remember as a kid finding a spider corvair that this man needed for parts for his convertible. He was excited. As far as them being death traps. Well look how big the other stuff on the road was! And my opinion is that people were more tuned into bigger outlines of cars and just overlook them sometime. It's like the 59 Chevy crashing into a new car they did this test 20 years or so ago. They were smart. The 59 Chevy with the X frame is going to fold up the way they clipped it headlight headlight on front end crash. So like anything else they can make it look and turn out the way they want it without camera tricks even. As far as the corvair they rust so bad and not a large following. I'd have to think about it but there was like six of them the man offered me for $1,200 and that was total. That's only been 2 years ago and they're probably still sitting there. Where are they resetting they're probably no worse for wear and he had them up off the ground. Two of them were what you call late model body style. The other ones were early 60s body style. Two of them were currently running the third one had transmission out but the engine was reported to be a runner. They were complete. I did not buy them. I was there buying something else. Now that we're on the other side of covid and giving how scared that little town was maybe it might be easier to deal with folks. I'll never down they were in the Eastern half of Kansas. Glad to provide the information if interested.
I was at this auction super cool
At 17:12:00, that thing may had run stationary ag equipment or maybe, coupled to the PTO, to run an AC generator for arc welding or some kind of pump.
The JD combines had 2 versions. Round back and square back referring to the back where the straw would exit onto the ground. Round backs are early models. Square back would be 55,s, 105's of the mid sixties. Remember seeing then in the field as a kid. Al B.
Actually there was the high round back, then the low round back, then the square back. There was a #42 pull type and 45 self propelled, then the 65 PT and 55 SP then the 96 PT and 95 SP. and then the 106 PT and 105 SP. We used 2 high 45's then a high 95 , then 2 low 95's then a square back 95. We went through a lot of gas in those years. We then got a 851 PT Massey pulled by a 1370 Case tractor. The guy selling fuel thought we had quit farming!
That 1935 Chevy one and one half ton is worth saving. They are fairly uncommon because of the depression and that wood framing has doomed so many to scrap. That one looks real original yet as well.
I agree! If anyone is interested, it is available. We have a 1932 also, in similar condition. Send Joe an email, rustranchkansas@gmail.com
At WDMM94. A 3 Stooges type truck for sure back in their prime With Curly doing his Antics..
Years B4 WW2 and The Japanese bombing Pearl Harbor.
I like the old yellow F6! Seeing it on the lot really makes me want to work on my old girl. Happy New Year 👍😁
Nice Rusty Ranch n all ur vehicles
Wishing you all a very Merry and Blessed Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎄
That Willy's is worth saving. Best motor on here
Ralph Nader described the Corvair ''UNSAFE AT ANY SPEED'' due to the suspension used.
That was the title of the book, Corvair was one chapter of it but he had criticism of the design of most American cars.
Good show by the best Pliers, Mr GoodPliers. The 35 is one cool piece of Chev history. The Corvair’s look solid. 😎👍🇨🇦
The corvair engine would bolt directly to a Beatle transmission a common practice until high performance parts were available for the vw
Adapters were sold/necessary.
Those trucks are built a lot better than the trucks today that’s for sure
..13:10..I was hoping that '62 Chevy medium duty was going to have a 348 or 409 in it, but a 292 is very nice!...I love 292's, and they are kind of hard to get these days...
That auctioneer always kills it
How about the flat fender jeep wagon 52:20?
An Auction on Christmas Day 2021. Who'd Thunk It! I would LOVE to Attend one of these kind of auctions! 1/02/2022....LETS GO BRANDON!
That Willys is really really rare. That’s a pre-Kaiser Willys. Whatever they were asking you should have grabbed it.
Sold for $875
In your opinion, was the 53 Chevy Dump body pricey at $4900? Do you remember what the old buggy brought? Thank you
The price for the carriage was $350 if I remember right. I believe the auction footage of it is in the video
Damn!! $4900 for the '54 Chevy!! I never expected it to go that high.
Sitting behind the same '54 3600, I see another pickup (can't tell what it was) that looks like it had a dog box on it... the kind greyhound hauling coyote hunters use. Do you recall what the truck was, or what it brought sir? (My family hunted coyotes that way from WW II through the mid 1970s. So I always notice any trucks that have those boxes on them.😎)
Mr. Goodpliers: When did they stop using wood paddles on combines like the one shown @ 17:42? Please advise. Thanks.
I can't really say. I didn't know enough about either of those to even narrate anything about them for the video
It's written law, every farm auction has to have at least one grey haired man with a pony tail period. Prove me wrong. Thanks for the video Pliers.
That styled g will definitely bring a good price
That Loader looks like the old Kentucky Harvester off the movie Gremlins lol! But I love that old and short John Deere tractor that was beside the loader that thing looks so cool I would buy that thing and fix it up new and drive it around on the weekends
I have to bet that you bought the triumph motorcycle... didn't see who got that willies car but it just begged for a small block clear and clean under the hood with nice exhaust... just that hint of talk, not loud. Cleaned up an polished out, was a sleeper of a deal as I built two of them. I thought the old chev one ton with a two speed might of still been mechanical brakes and that would be a 35 as 36 was first year hydraulic brakes... coming down the road it lost a majority of the mouse nest under the hood. I started with two of those "36" models, both ran and needed brakes, but I used them to haul firewood, and used the parking brake off the driveshaft. I hauled two or more cords every day on it to peoples houses. First year for the 216 engine. Before that was a 206 engine an it never made the grade as it blew up faster than you could put them in... factory crooked cranks in them. I did build a 33 chevy four cylinder flat head an found out that was a very limited engine, and they never made over four digits of them. I got mine running for my uncle who promised he would pay me. He was my first customer an first to not pay me. Years later pretended it never happened an he brought a nice 56 ford truck in to me for a tune up. I told him to par it outside as its first in the morning, I wanted to go over thoroughly and so he did. I had a worn out but still run good six cylinder engine sitting in a back room and swapped out his "Y" block 292 with factory four barrel t pot carb. I had his engine out an hidden from everyone an that six in the hole that night with nice quiet exhaust. He complained it was a bit quiet when he come and got it but never looked under the hood which I prayed he wouldn't. He got down the road a couple crooked miles where you could barely go any speed to open road to find no power. Just worthless an it was starting to smoke. He came back at a much higher speed than he left and I was standing there waiting. He first said, somethings wrong an I told him.... no, everything is just as it should be as you never payed me this time either. He looked me in the face hard as I wasn't fourteen any more. His head to one side he opens the hood and screamed "where is my engine?" and I quietly told him, right there in front of you. Oh he was mad an come stomping towards me. I never budged and he swung wild, I dodged and poked his beak a bit ... just enough to make it bleed. And before he swung again I told him "hospital this time" so he stepped back from the seventeen year old rock solid farm boy. He knew he was beat an would get a ass whopping. He told my dad an dad told his brother, you screwed the kid and the kid grew up. He kept that truck parked in his driveway for years an when I came home from the service, I offered him hardly anything for it. He sold it to me and I put its original engine back. You just don't know how bad I wish I could still move and make a living with my hands
What happened to the Chevy carry all at 56:20?
Thanks for stopping by the channel, Gregory. Thanks for your interest in the vehicles. The Jeep and Carryall are both Joe's. Both are still available last I was aware. Send him an email, rustranchkansas@gmail.com
Have you ever had to deal with a "gold box" ignition on an older truck? We have a 1978 IH 1800 Loadstar and that box kept it out of the farm fields one fall. Finally had to do away with the gold box completely and swap to another system
First electronic ingintion Ihc used, started in 75, palm where u sit
Out of curiosity, what did the fancy buggy bring?
Looks like joe purchased the chewiest stuff of the lot... Merry Christmas!
Damn 900 for the JD Model D ? I would of paid more for that thing I like that tractor it's cool it's like a late 30's early 40's I'm guessing but I would use that around my place to take the kids on hay wagon rides and to tow stuff around after I paint it up nice and make it look good
It was quite an old restoration. I'm not sure if it might have even been stuck from sitting. There are so many of those old tractors in our area, they just don't seem to bring much.
Good day What model was JD with loader on? Never heard. Thanks
I thought they announced it in the video. Does 4400 ring a bell?
@@mr.goodpliers6988 Boy that was reasonable if it run. Thanks
4020, 1970 -1972
Willy's was the American VW, with a four-cylinder flathead except for the Aero Eagle hardtop which had a flat 6.
I'm redoing 64 corvair turbo car they was cars before there time
Sorry I see the auction was going no as you were filming. Thanks
Mr goodpliers there's some old chevys show quality in South Dakota on hi bid 1940coupe and others
A lack of reliability is what soured my uncles initial excitement after about a year...
His was a brand new '62 coupe.
Thought that bodystyle was a way better version of the Karman Giha...
Dash board would also stop the horse manure that the horse would realse as travelling from come jg back into carriage.
Horse's butt is higher than ground stones coming up
Looks like a Henry j
Ol' boy almost got took down by that engine crank handel.
Ralph Nader never had a driver's license and only commuted via public trans
Did the guy with the Triumph 650 motorcycle state a price?
55 triumph 650 I'd buy it.
9:55 so true !
Do you guys sell any of those vehicles if you do I'd like to know how much
Thanks for stopping by the channel Keith!
This video is current enough that most of what you see there is available at this time. Send Joe an email, rustranchkansas@gmail.com
Merry Christmas. Good picks.
When is the auction. Thanks
I never do auctions. I find deals everywhere for Free.
What make and year is the foreign car sitting next to the Corvairs?
Not a foreign car, It's a Willys Aero made prior to 1955 but no older than 1952.
The Texas guys, (RESTORED) have a Willys car like that one.
The John Deere D was a bargain in my opinion
Did you grab your "new" sunglasses? ;-)
The Corvair never grabbed a hold thanks to Ralph "the Communist lover" Nader's book" Unsafe At Any Speed".
And Chevy being too cheap to add an anti roll bar.
👍👌👏 Some really nice and interesting vehicles in this video. Thanks a lot for explaining, recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all involved people.
Post Scriptum: Nothing more ridiculous for European ears to hear, than this typical (and totally unnecessary) behaviour and singsong speaking from the North American auctioners.
What do you do with all that junk?
The Nova was a piece of junk compared to a Fitch Corvair and the collectibility reflects that.
Do hate those Porky Pig style auctioneers, just say the numbers and cut out all the stuttering bull 🙂
the stuff you buy,do you make any money on it or you just a collector?its seems like you buy a lot of crappy cars,and 4 doors and old stuff that nobody else wants at the auction and what do you do with it?plans?seems like all lot of money for what you pay!!
Every old Corvair should be made electric...
I'm trying to watch this but you're putting me to sleep
