  • Finding old cars and trucks is always fun. I actually walked right past this old Buick the first time I visited this farmstead! I didn't even find it until I went back to start hauling some of the 20+ other vehicles that came from here!
    This one was going to take some work! Justin has been hauling some cars and trucks for me and he was able to bring his skid steer over to dig this one out. I'm not sure how I would have gotten this one out without equipment!!!
    Let's go dig it out and take a look at it!!!
    If you like old cars, trucks, and automobilia, be sure to check out all of my other videos! Please subscribe so you can keep up with the new videos as I post them!
    If you have questions about vehicles or parts, the only way to get a hold of me is to call me, 8 AM-8 PM CST, no texts, no e-mails, no messenger, no smoke signals, calls only. 620-786-4428
    If I don’t answer, I’m probably on the phone with someone else and if you don’t leave me a message, I just assume you're another telemarketer trying to sell me an extended warranty! LOL!
    I am not open to the public, so if you show up without calling and making an appointment, don't expect me to be available.
    If you comment, message, text, e-mail, etc., don't expect me to find it and don't expect an answer. Thanks for watching, Chad 620-786-4428

    Aluminum crankcases and removable cast pairs of cylinders were typical on the higher end motors of that period. Also, I think you will find the internals of the motor still in decent shape. The dry climate, hood still covering the motor and also the fact that the exhaust and carb, all point down, water likely didn't get inside.

    It is 1920,s the earlier teens Buick,s had exposed cage valves pushrods for easy oiling .the pinhead valves and valve covers were changes made for the 1920 and onwards ( I have 2 x 1923,s looks exactly the same model ).

    Very cool project for someone as she is very complete for something of that era. She was probably used as the old farmer’s farm truck for a while after 1932. It looks like he kept his fence repair equipment in her for a while rather than cutting off the body and putting a flat bed on her for hauling hay. Check the tires and see if any are dated post-war. Farmers got extra gasoline rations for farm equipment. There might be something like a Western Auto component or package that might date her last retirement.

    An arborist will explain and id the age of all the trees around this early 20s Buick that it has not been in that exact same spot since 32. Just because the last registration was in 32 doesn't mean it was suddenly parked in one spot and never moved around again for 93 years especially if it's been on a farm. Was likely used as a yard vehicle afterwards. That frame would be non existent sunk in the dirt 9 decades but it looked pretty solid. Even if it was a double boxed frame as in heavy duty trucks at the time, it would be in pieces. Speaking from vast experience, not just guessing. Estimated time in the spot? 1960s. Enjoyed the video.

I live in Massachusetts and have moved cars that have in fact sat 70 plus years and almost no rot on the frames I've also moved cars in the same yard that sat less than half that time and the cars literally broke in half so you can call it what you will . My point is some vehicles somehow withstand mother nature others don't .

    Like most cars of that period, the open touring body had a hardwood structural frame, or skeleton, with steel bracing. That piece you found inside and suggested might be part of the top system is actually an interior body brace that bolted to that wood structure.

      I think I read somewhere that the Clampett's truck was built for the TV show from parts of an old Buick car, a 1922 model, I think. I've heard that it still is preserved in a museum. When I was a young teenager in the early 1970s, I found and built a plastic model kit of the Beverly Hillbillies truck. Don't know what ever happened to it but probably was thrown away or given away when my parents moved while I was away in college.

The car is real cool too😊

    An original photo, probably from the manufacturer.

    @jamesthompson8008 9 дней назад +6

    Very cool find! You are absolutely correct that probably yard art is its greatest potential.
    Now, HAVING SAID THAT, may I recommend something...
    What if YOU had a frame/stand fabbed up to hold that Buick up by it's frame, & display it next to the shop/office on a small concrete pad(to place the stand), where its visible & somewhat secure??
    It'd kind of cover 3 bases;
    1 - In line with the name of the business, as nobody alive today drove it, maintained it, etc.
    2 - Clearly auto parts connection, though now your earliest(perhaps).
    3 - The Barton county connection, it never traveled any farther(shipping to end destination probably long distance it ever went).
    Make a spot, prop it up, then spray it down with oil, or similar to give the display a fighting chance. Hell, maybe even a shed roof or gazebo type thing. This strikes me as a tremendous advertisement opportunity, which hopefully, would lead to other discoveries/business. (As in, if he drug THAT out, what we've got ain't that bad).
    Just a thought.
    Really Chad, GREAT VIDEO(both/all of you)!!

The engine is worth BIG MONEY, especially the Carbueator, generator, water pump, and distributor, so I would pull that whole engine and safeguard it, or the antique car parts guys from Stealth Five Finger Discount will pick that car clean. THAT BUICK is well worth restoration - I would not park it in the yard. I'd keep it in a secure building and offer the whole car for a set price. Do not part it out!

    The engine numbers in cars of that era were unique to each car if memory is correct, it was kinda like the vin number, they never started using standard vins until the mid 50's. most cars of that era only had 1 option for a motor. in some states cars of that age, they use the engine number to title it today.
