      I realize it needs a new fuel pump and some brake work . But what’s that amount to? Maybe $1,000 if you pay someone to do the work. Meanwhile she got a car worth about $20,000 for $9,500. She should be over the moon.

    You scored some really great stuff for very little money spent. Those are the most fun type of auctions. The old school " in person only" auctions , instead of the ones that open the bidding up to the internet. Always good deals to be had . congrats.

    Memories, you mentioned 2 cars I owned. My first car was the 49 chevy 2 door fastback with sunvisor and wheel skirts. 3rd car was Pontiac Ventura Sprint manual transmission, it had air shocks which came in handy when loading 3 sets of dive gear in the trunk or towing a boat.

Way back when, I was lucky to get my hands on a 1971 Ford dealer book, complete with the interior and exterior color chart book to go with it. Oh, and the books are great if you want to get your car nerd friends together and play a game of automotive trivial pursuit.

      I've got the set of them for a 1961 Chevrolet. It's been a decade since I sold my Impala, but it's still neat to look through. The '61 is a dream car of one of my friends in his 20's, and I am saving them to surprise him with once he eventually finds one. I had a set of 1975 Dodge that I just gave away as a graduation gift to a college student who drove a 1975 Coronet.
      The best set I had was a 1970 Dodge Charger. They sure were neat but when I looked up what they were worth I decided I didn't need to hold them very tight. They brought $1000 on eBay to a buyer in Australia

      @@mr.goodpliers6988 agreed, I guess it boils down to if you just see it as labor or you actually enjoy it. Being disabled with no decent income I would feel beyond privileged to work on a vehicle like that. If god ever blessed me with one.. I guess it’s just looked at differently by different folks. I do appreciate and like your content sir absolutely. 💯

    I think the 69-70 Chevelle is pretty much the same style of vehicle as the Marlin.

    I don't like the LS engines I'd rather have the old ones but around here everybody uses the LS and they won't sell you none of the old ones when they take them out they take them to the crusher

    Ridiculous how over-priced signs are. Thanks American Pickers.
