You strike me as a really decent guy. When things go south like that, everything happens for a reason, and things seem to turn around for the better. Sure hope so! How about you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and keep making your videos. I'm hooked. I'll keep watching
I respect that you give the old trucks / cars and Parts a chance to be used again, Even though it can be a pain to do. Most guys in the scrap business only see the value in what it weighs and is made of, they just scrap it. They don't care what it is.
In sweden we call that 64 chevy a good project😂 because we love the patina and the rusty shit just fix them street legal and start driving around town and drinking beer🍻
Too bad about your auction but you live and learn. You know more than you did yesterday so you’ll do it right in the Spring. You always seem to have a real good optimistic view of things which helps when you are in business. Us grumpy old farts stay grumpy because we don’t do anything but complain about everything under the sun including shat that doesn’t matter. Stay well Silas!😮
I need the wall hanger for a 58 Viking 60 and then I need the driver side window post and door hanger all the way to the step rail give me a price on it
Kind of late to your channel and I have been watching a lot of them lately. One thing that strikes me as I look at all those 1950 to 1960-ish farm trucks. One day they are going to be just a memory, they will all be gone and you will realize it is the end of an era.
Gotta love the winter, knuckle busting, bolt breaking, wet, and shivering. It's great to see you, Silas. I am heading over to your other channel to see what's new over there. Your house destruction last time was Amazing, how are you ever going to top that video I will never know. Thanks for posting. It's great to escape for a little while in your world.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart for saving the 63 and 64 Impalas and also the 60s Chevy truck cabs and also the 50s trucks. Wish I were closer I come by for a look for sure. Happy New Year.
Hey Silas. I say that like I know you...only from your vids. It is bad news but so glad you had good news to share. You are ALWAYS in a good mood and send good vibes out. Please don't let the badness bring ya down dude. Love all your positiveity! We need more of it!
If you do part out the F7, I would pull the doors unless they are really bad. That truck has the chrome grille and windshield trim, but if it has that trim it also would have an exterior lock on both doors (as opposed to just on the passenger side) and it has clips for door panels, which the plain trucks did not get.
I like seeing the cool stuff moving on to it's next life. So cool that all those cabs are saved, but even cutting the noses off for wall art still saves them. GREAT WORK !!!!!!
Silas - You'll make more monoy with a late Spring or Early Summer auction. A bit of advice, though ... DO YOUR LEGWORK! Look hard at each action company you're considering. Make sure the auction they put your stuff in has BOTH an internet auction, AND a live, in-person auction. The present delay might actually give you an advantage with that. The better on-line/live auction companies post photos a couple of months before bidding begins. The extra time generates a lot of interest.
1:16 love the background music Silas , that truck grill on the 1952 16:56 truck is known as a bulletnose grill ,after the war ended vehicles often times had war time themes in order to get potential customers interested in making a vehicle purchase The truck was known as a bullet nose because the grill resembles bullets
I’m sorry you didn’t make the auction but sounds like you still was able to get rid of some stuff so that was a good deal. I just love watching your videos so keep them coming.
I always marvel at t he amount of old vehicles that have lasted 70 odd years, in the UK we get a few, but most just rust away, it is great to see them on your video's
For me things were really slow for about 3 months until last week when I sold 4 dana 60 ford axles, a 8" lift kit, a ford v10 engine and trans, and a set of winter tires! BAM bills paid, feeling good! Life is full of ups and downs and in the used parts game, nothing is a sure thing ;-) Nice collection !
that Ford F7 is cool 2 speed diff as well ,,i live in NZ we barely got to see any of this stuff i love all those old trucks .Worth a fortune here & people buy them too they like to be different & use them for promotional vehicles..
The 63 was probably my favorite. My first 2 cars were 63s, an Impala SS hardtop and a 63 Biscayne 4 Dr. I always think of the 4 door sedans as being a Biscayne or BelAir, but I bet they sold a ton of Impala 4 door sedans. I always thought the 63 was a lot sharper looking car than a 64.
You have had a long busy day and it is just not stopping great job loved it Salis you and yours Happy Holidays from my family to yours can't wait for next video.
spent my entire life trying to please everyone but never achieved it,love your attitude and thinking ,there was a yard near me who sold usa cars,im in the uk ,if a customer balked at the price of say a 57 shield he smashed it and said you can have it for free now,he did this because the customers didnt understand overheads,you explain ,so hopefully in the future places like yours are more respected,me? im nearly done now,tried but failed to make the world better...
Dude you should definitely consider listing the trucks on rat rod and street rod forms. People have a renued interest in classic trucks!! Keep up the great work!!
I loved that music. Very upbeat. Glad things turned around for the better. Do what you have to do Silas. We aren't in your shoes and that is the business you are in anyway. That one truck was so cool. Those big ol' fenders and that little hood. Hope you make moolah on that one.
Since You Tore Down The House You Might Think about takeing the Best of The Best of the most Complete cars and Trucks and park them out front (Like a Used Car Lot) and sell them as Classic Cars (Of course You must put up a Fence so they wont disapear. Silas's Classic Cars!
Good pivot move on the auction that wasn't. I recognize that having to post everything on line by yourself is time consuming, but getting those old parts, junk parts, rusty parts vehicles off your shoulders is great. You sell to a very specific group of people and you need to fish while fish are biting. Whether something is worth $500 to a restoration shop or $300 if you have a live buyer show up is the bottom line. While it lays on the ground corroding, it's worth nothing. In the end, it's about a flow of ready money plus your salary. FIne videos, Silas!
My Father was "ready" to move into a retirement home, a month before the date he passed away. I live 1200 miles away. My wife and I and my Sister and her husband all busted our butts, for one day cleaning out the house. We made little progress. I went to get more trash bags. 1/2 half mile from his house is the office of an auction house. I stopped. The guy says i can't come, I have an appointment. 20 minutes later he shows up. We sign up. There was an auction on a nice spring day. One person made an offer on the house prior to his death. She bought the house at auction for more. Even the 40 year old paint cans sold.
Another satisfied customer. You had some great sales it looks like. Love the treasure hunting videos. The house flattening was awesome. Should invite the family to come over and watch that one again.
Business opportunity for a retired guy, someone close to the facility.. to pick up the 'no ship' items and get them on a closed palette and on a truck.
One more thing if you don't mind God bless you and the family especially the children with out them where is this great country of ours going to end up .(just saying)
Looks like a Nailhead Buick intake at 7:19. The 364 4bbl is worth $100, the 401-425 4bbl about ten cents. lol I sold a truck cab visor in November and I had to crate it, what a pain in the rear end.
Respectfully when it comes down to loading up the cabs wouldn't it be better to tip the cabs up with the nose facing up for more room I'm just saying I think you will give you more room? And also on some of these trucks the front end with the wheels I think we'll make a great barbecue grill once again I'm just saying? Victor from Palmdale California much respect
You sold all those Truck Cabs - Good Looking Lot ! Hey - the Auction was a NO Go but You managed to put most on Line and it sold like Hot Cakes - see - there is always another Way - well done You and You sounded Happy ! Man - You had a Cold but very Successful Day selling Things ! Numb Fingers was worth it - You got Tons and Tons done ! Great Video and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!
Some of that big Ford trim on the side of the hood is pretty valuable! I am not familiar with that piece of trim. The one with the chrome grill. A lot of people like to take some of the trim off the side of the hood or the entire Hood from the bigger trucks and put them on their pickups. You know about 1953 to 1956 right in there. Now the thing about it is they are just a bigger chunk of Chrome and it takes up some of that bland area from the lack of trim of any size on the pickup. I have a 1956 Ford with 50,000 miles. Yeah it's been on the farm here for about 40 years. It's got a straight six in it. Here's my point. A very long time family friend wanted to show up hoods. My dad said okay I wasn't around to say anything different. I would not have anyway even though I did not like separating parts from such a nice truck. I had a guy looking at it about a year ago. He was here to buy other stuff. Well you know how that works out he goes and looks at this truck and I just beginning to tell him the story and he goes that's excellent would you sell me that piece of trim. He off me $250 aside for the trim. I said okay. After you left I had two more pieces of trim just like what he bought I put them back on the hood. Wait for the next guy because it sells better when it's displayed properly and not just sitting in a box with a bunch of junk. I agree with your statement. All in the presentation. But those side pieces are worth a fair amount of money. Okay this got way too long I apologize. Why don't you talk with Mr Good pliers he likes to go into flea markets and maybe he could help sell some of that little stuff for you. You know the engines clutch housing things you don't want to ship. Just a thought.
I promise you Silas that @cleetus Mcfarland would love to have the "Ford big job" emblems. It's literally one of his biggest catch phrases. His 3.08 million subscribers can agree 👍.
Great that u are still managing to sell some of the stuff u wonted to put on auction at least u now for next time and merry Christmas to u and you’re family Silas hope you have a good time mate
My boss went to an auction and was bidding on a gin pole bed he wanted ,it went for $3500 the guy had another one my boss offered him a $1000 for it he didn't take it said he was gonna let it go to auction. My boss paid $300 for it at auction the seller was not happy
I see the house still standing...so this video must have been a while ago, before you demolished the house. Is it all gone now or still a pile of rubbish?

Dont know why but i really like it when you load items in those truckbeds really fast. Cool camera work! 😊
You strike me as a really decent guy. When things go south like that, everything happens for a reason, and things seem to turn around for the better. Sure hope so! How about you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and keep making your videos. I'm hooked. I'll keep watching
Well said already, Have a great Holiday, Thanks for having us along for the ride
You post your b usiness phone number your location purc hated parts & vehicles
Favorite, 63 and 64 Chevy. I am 80 years old so remember them well
I respect that you give the old trucks / cars and Parts a chance to be used again, Even though it can be a pain to do. Most guys in the scrap business only see the value in what it weighs and is made of, they just scrap it. They don't care what it is.
Both the .. '63 and the '64 were my favorite vehicles hope they get restored!
In sweden we call that 64 chevy a good project😂 because we love the patina and the rusty shit just fix them street legal and start driving around town and drinking beer🍻
Always nice to see the recycling...people buying parts and vehicles
Too bad about your auction but you live and learn. You know more than you did yesterday so you’ll do it right in the Spring. You always seem to have a real good optimistic view of things which helps when you are in business. Us grumpy old farts stay grumpy because we don’t do anything but complain about everything under the sun including shat that doesn’t matter. Stay well Silas!😮
I need the wall hanger for a 58 Viking 60 and then I need the driver side window post and door hanger all the way to the step rail give me a price on it
Silas you get the 2022 Most Productive Worker in America Award!
Kind of late to your channel and I have been watching a lot of them lately. One thing that strikes me as I look at all those 1950 to 1960-ish farm trucks. One day they are going to be just a memory, they will all be gone and you will realize it is the end of an era.
Thanks for sharing Lots of cool stuff finding good homes
Gotta love the winter, knuckle busting, bolt breaking, wet, and shivering. It's great to see you, Silas. I am heading over to your other channel to see what's new over there. Your house destruction last time was Amazing, how are you ever going to top that video I will never know. Thanks for posting. It's great to escape for a little while in your world.
If I get time I will have a video out on that channel this week, or for sure next week! Maybe both!
Oh that house demo tape I had to send it out to others, that was EPIC Silas!!!!!!!!
That's beautiful seeing all those cabs being saved , and repurposed. ...
Thanks from the bottom of my heart for saving the 63 and 64 Impalas and also the 60s Chevy truck cabs and also the 50s trucks. Wish I were closer I come by for a look for sure. Happy New Year.

Sometimes bad news will turn into good news. Your work is never done. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I like seeing the cool stuff moving on to it's next life. So cool that all those cabs are saved, but even cutting the noses off for wall art still saves them. GREAT WORK !!!!!!
just alot of fun watching old parts going to new home and a new life to live
glad to see you parting out cars trucks selling them now rather than crushing them
Your "Big Dog" cab with the chrome grill might have been a fire truck cab. Chrome grill and red paint inside the cab.....
I would love to have a 1953 GMC COE.
My dream truck.
Have your own action. You don't need to use no company.
Silas - You'll make more monoy with a late Spring or Early Summer auction. A bit of advice, though ... DO YOUR LEGWORK! Look hard at each action company you're considering.

You better take OFF THURSDAY AND FRIDAY! Too cold!

I’m sorry you didn’t make the auction but sounds like you still was able to get rid of some stuff so that was a good deal. I just love watching your videos so keep them coming.
Lining parts up on pallets like a supermarket will make your business fly, that's the way to do it.

it's always good to see things and cars get a new home instead of ending up in the crusher
Love the 63 and 64 chevy cars.
64 Impala was my one of my dad's favs he would have loved to restore that one like the last one rust didn't bother him he made panel if he had to
The 63 was probably my favorite. My first 2 cars were 63s, an Impala SS hardtop and a 63 Biscayne 4 Dr. I always think of the 4 door sedans as being a Biscayne or BelAir, but I bet they sold a ton of Impala 4 door sedans. I always thought the 63 was a lot sharper looking car than a 64.
Cool thanks 👍😊.PS all the truck cabs 😮
The 64 chev Impala was my favorite vehicle. I am so glad you found a home for it !! Good video Silas!! And Merry Christmas!!
I hope someone saves that Ford Big job with the original grille. That is a cool truck
I have to admit that is sad to see the trucks being cut or parted out but as a business you have to go where the money is, great video like always!
It’s so nice to see fords in its natural habitat.
You have had a long busy day and it is just not stopping great job loved it Salis you and yours Happy Holidays from my family to yours can't wait for next video.
Nice load of Cab’s Merry Christmas Silas

We don’t always see the impact we made on the world around us!
Iowaclassiccars should have bought those !
Dude you should definitely consider listing the trucks on rat rod and street rod forms. People have a renued interest in classic trucks!!
Keep up the great work!!
Good evening, great video, loved them old chevys back in the 70'. Thank you, Steve from N.B Canada
You my friend earned your self a subscriber! I could hear you all day talk. You should have your own radio talk show
64 Chevy thanks for the great videos. I aways look forward to seeing your next video. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas .
I really like those old trucks and I am glad to see you make an effort to rescue them or at least rescue parts of them. Thanks for the video.
I liked the 1964 Chevy Impala, 4 doors can be made to look cool too!
You have to walk the fence to figure out what you can keep or scrap. Not easy and make a living comes first. Have a Very Merry Christmas!
wow ! the house got rebuilt fast
I loved that music. Very upbeat. Glad things turned around for the better. Do what you have to do Silas. We aren't in your shoes and that is the business you are in anyway. That one truck was so cool. Those big ol' fenders and that little hood. Hope you make moolah on that one.
Thanks for the great content.
Blue chevy cab but that 52 ford crome grill is killer....
These are very cool to make barbercue grill s out of😊🇧🇻
Ford BIG JOB…
Never heard of one!
Do your research.. whole truck may be worth something.
The first I saw was a fire truck at a car show a few years ago. It was all restored and nice.

FIne videos, Silas!
Had a 455 in a 71 Pontiac Bonneville. Smooth ride
Cut them up!!!! They are still getting a new life!!!! Wish I had the room to have a front end in my house
My Father was "ready" to move into a retirement home, a month before the date he passed away. I live 1200 miles away. My wife and I and my Sister and her husband all busted our butts, for one day cleaning out the house. We made little progress.

I was terrified that you were closing the yard... so glad you weren't.... Merry Christmas.....
Course I like that red 57 pickup that was behind that Impala and I know it's probably been over a year ago but anyways I liked it That's the best one
Looks like a Nailhead Buick intake at 7:19. The 364 4bbl is worth $100, the 401-425 4bbl about ten cents. lol
I sold a truck cab visor in November and I had to crate it, what a pain in the rear end.
I've been looking forward to a new adventure vid !! I never know what to expect 😊 fav vehicles, 63 +64 chevys
You get er done

Great that u are still managing to sell some of the stuff u wonted to put on auction at least u now for next time and merry Christmas to u and you’re family Silas hope you have a good time mate
Good to see these old cabs going off to new homes. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Those guys got a few nice ones.
Yes. 1
Started laughing. You should put aluminum rims and tires on the cars and trucks that leave. LOL
thanks for saving stuff!.... MERY CHRISTMAS!
Good stuff!
Glad you had some good sales wish I had a truck & trailer I'd make the drive get a few things I saw
You've got some cool stuff there ! Enjoyed ! Merry Christmas
Like all the videos. Never commented on them. But I like watching. When are you able to go through them semi trailers loaded full of stuff?
Sure do like those late 40s early 50s Studebaker pick-ups... really enjoy your videos..thanks and keep them coming 😎
Some great trucks loaded out
The 63 and 64 Chevy are easy flips, any X frames are highly collectible.
My boss went to an auction and was bidding on a gin pole bed he wanted ,it went for $3500 the guy had another one my boss offered him a $1000 for it he didn't take it said he was gonna let it go to auction. My boss paid $300 for it at auction the seller was not happy
the 63 and 64 chevy cars they looked good
Silas Have a Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you and all of your family!
I see the house still standing...so this video must have been a while ago, before you demolished the house. Is it all gone now or still a pile of rubbish?
