Thanks for going out there. My dad said it was a little tough letting some of the cars go and my mom was REALLY happy that some of the cars sold. And 'Yes' , my dad did not know who RIchard was, he had no idea and honestly does not get into that stuff.
Love these type episodes. No hootin' n hollerin'. No kids takin' selfies or live streamin' No BS. Just an old guy with a million old cars, a thousand barns and Richard's got to haggle with him. 👍
There comes a time when you have to cut loose your sentiment and just clear out. Better to get most of these vehicles new owners that will keep them on the road, rather than allow them to disintegrate into history. Thank for sharing your excursions.
These guys are old school and think they're gonna live forever. Besides, would you want to organize and sell all that stuff? No wonder he's totally content passing that burden on to someone else
@@MattKeller Makes sense, just a mess of a situation. Makes it difficult on the heirs if they’re not prepared for it. My old man has a similar mentality, although he only has 1.5 buildings filled with stuff, and we’ve whittled it down to two cars now, one of them being a daily, the other a project. Still a bunch of stuff left to go through, but now it’s somewhat manageable. I even constructed a weatherproof steel building attachment onto his pre-existing shop to help create more floor & wall space. Made it out of scratch materials. He leaves most of the laborious work to me, naturally. But it’s been really important for me as his son to have helped & continue to help go through & organize his mess. He gets to see some completion, and I either have to do it now with him here, or do it later without. It’s much better to do it with him here.
Listen. If you're above 50 or 60 and you're still hoarding projects, GET RID OF THEM TO SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO FINISH THEM! YOU'RE NOT TOUCHING THEM. YOU'RE NEVER GONNA TOUCH THEM. LET THEM GO, GET SOME MONEY, CUT YOUR LOSS& MOVE ON WITH LIFE!
Richard, love these videos of your wheel'n & deal'n, getting back to your Gas Monkey roots, how it all got started. Didn't care much when the TV episodes evolved into high end, big bucks Ferrari and Lamborghini. You're an inspiration to all car guys, thx!
Hey Richard, there's a man in Brainerd, MN that has 100s & 100s of cars from the 1920s-1960s. All makes and models even foriegn. I believe he even has brass era vehicles pre 1920s... 🤘😜😊🇺🇸 Getcha Some of That! 🤘🇺🇸😜😊
Right on Richard I agree with some of the other posts I do like this format better. I liked watching the cars come together and the builds, but this seems to be a little bit more realistic the back-and-forth with the people. I will continue to watch thank you for the episode😎
As Richard tries to reason with this sharp as a tack ol’ timer “well I’ve got to clean it up too” -Richard and without skipping a beat straight faced and eye to eye this ol’ timers solution “drive it in the rain” 😂😂😏 and you sir just earned my vote for 2021’s best answers to a world problem.
This is the best automotive show on youtube right now... Richard is entertaining and an awesome businessman... Learning alot... Aspire to be like him someday... 👍👍👍
You need to watch martin brothers on iron resurrection on cable, blows rhicard shit out of the water! Rhicard only wishes he was half as good as those guys. Sorry but rhicard is nothing more than a used car hustler!
So I haven't watched your show in a while. But as I was going through RUclips I saw what you did for the young man that was wearing your t-shirt that was being evicted. I thought that was the coolest thing anybody could do. So now I'm back on track watching your show again. And it's because of that. I just want to say what you did for that young man was freaking awesome. And I like the old truck the one that was maroon looking with the 289.
the car salesman that had a lot behind my house in the 60's was a jewel. He came straight over from Italy. His favorite saying while selling a car was " If you need a gooda car to get wherea you wanna go it go gooda. Go downa hill areal good but no so gooda upada hill, but it go.
Richard: "I gotta clean it." Old guy: "Drive it in the rain!" Dead!!!! I love old guys. Such straight shooters and no non-sense. Lol!!!! The negotiating was classic!
Man, this channel is so much better than the TV Show! I wasn't interested in GMG for years but this here is great! Lots of content for me to catch up, nice!
Glad 2 have you in Minnesota again!! Lot's of awesome gems in this State!! Cold beer is a must !! Keep it up Richard!! Love these vids !! Especially Sport Wheels deal, total gold mine!!
That old timer will tell you where it came from and who he got it from. Don’t need to know . I liked when he said it came off the show room floor ha,ha,ha they all did at one time or another.He will sell some but a lot will just rot into the ground .
History of the car isnt always just idle chatter. If one car had one lady owner from new and a full service history and an identical model beside it had 24 owners and no paperwork, which would you buy first.
Kudos to doing what you do Richard. You got more patience than me. Too many times have I asked to buy a truck sitting in a field only to hear not for sale, I'm fixing it up. Then 10 years later I watch them haul it off to the scrap yard. People got to let sentimental go sometimes and sale these before they all turn to piles of scrap. Take the money why you can.
Business is business and any experienced classic car person knows there can be some strong attachments to material things causing one to bite their tongue sometimes. Regardless, you can never go wrong being humble, kind and respectful.
Whatever happened to your first start to finish build on RUclips (schoolBus) you were going to keep us posted on? I think you maybe posted two videos of it.
They are still working on it mike. They just had an update on it a day or two ago on one of the other videos and I can’t remember but I thought he said they were waiting on something for the bus but said we should have an update soon!
At least this guy had the presence of mind to park them indoors. Too many cars rusted away in junk yards and farm fields. I'm 65 and all you saw everywhere were yards full of cool old cars from the 30s to the 50s. All gone now, almost.
Call me crazy, But I’d watch this over the scripted bs on tv all day long. This was a good move Richard, because the content you are putting out is great Sir! 💯
I actually enjoyed watching Richard do business in a way that wasn't "you want 50k? I'll give you 25! Get you some of that!!!!!". Nice video. The old gent could have cleared some more property if wanted to.
His last head mechanic Aaron takes 1 year+ per project at his new shop. Although i think he only has one employee. Gas Monkey isn't a true shop. It's a film set with a Gas Monkey merch shop next door. Richard is the "star" and his lackeys are his co stars. He knows RUclips, endorsement deals, and selling merch are where the money's at. And I'm not knocking his hustle, he has a good business sense.
I'm from Australia so the concept of collecting this much stuff isn't a thing here and I always wonder how the owners afford to buy everything and just have it sit there for decades ....
Loving the format on RUclips so much better than Discovery's format. This is so much more about the cars and the business than the trumped up drama that Discovery was going for.
Got a 49 convertible and 64 galaxies outside in the first spot, yeah they're rough.. got a way more rusted out Bronco in a garage later in the video.. I hope this can all get sorted out and find new owners for the cars that are really worth it. Sell the worst for whatever they can get and roll the money and space over into the next ones. Need a whole team of younger guys just for this handful of properties to make it work
How does it feel to have somebody not know who the hell you are? I bet you it's got to be kind of soothing on one hand, but kind of frustrating on another. :-)
"drive it in the rain" that old man said after Richard told him he had to get it cleaned! 😂😂😂
I'm dying!
Like a boss.
That was epic...I'm dying
I picked up on that also. So funny !!
Yeah , cash in fist . The ole boy is classic .
Richard is a heck of a businessman.
I've watched more videos of Gas Monkey on RUclips than I ever did on cable. This content is WAY better! Keep it up guys
Yea Farmtruck made a poor choice going back..
Me too.
Fuk discovery channel
@@shelbyGT40 pays a hell of alot more than youtube lol
No way the early GMG stuff is awesome
Thanks for going out there. My dad said it was a little tough letting some of the cars go and my mom was REALLY happy that some of the cars sold. And 'Yes' , my dad did not know who RIchard was, he had no idea and honestly does not get into that stuff.
That was the best part of the video!!
that was cool seeing them negotiate with pen and paper on the hood of a truck
Yes he's definitely a pure good old timer lol G. I. F. (cash in fist he say's) THEY DEFINITELY DON'T COME STRONG LIKE THAT THESE DAYS
Does he still have any for sale?
His still pretty sharp.
Props to the editor for keeping the over-the-hood dealing/negotiating part uncut. Really loved watching that over supper. 😀
“Except I buy cool shit and not stop signs for $5” lol 🤣
that had me falling of my chair :)
That was fast and funny.
Lol,he wouldn't pay more than 3 bucks f tha sign n u know it👍
The old guy is pretty sharp for his age...telling Richard he can go to the bank they have money!! great episode
"I buy cool shit, not stop signs for $5." 😂 I fuckin died laughing!
I'm in a quiet office holding back over here. And how calm he was saying it? Making things worse!
Yes that was a low blow for American pickers lmao ..
Love these type episodes. No hootin' n hollerin'. No kids takin' selfies or live streamin' No BS. Just an old guy with a million old cars, a thousand barns and Richard's got to haggle with him.
👍
I'ma be that old man one day!
Great to see Richard showing that older gentlemen the respect he deserves..and that old guy was still pretty dam sharp!
Next Coffee walk, Dennis Collins goes to Minnesota to look at a rare 4x4 Jeepster, it's like a HOLY GRAIL xD
Lmfao
Ok, that was funny!
Or the gtos he would buy them all
HOLY GRAIL 🤣 yeah should only BE 1 of those lol
Hell yeah

Rich always has a lot of respect for the old timers 👍
I Gotta say I like that older gentleman, he's a no BS when it comes to wheeling and dealing, and he's pretty sharp.
I would have told him to stick his cars up his A$$. Looks like most came from there!!
Richard was giving the guy decent offers he’s never gonna do anything with those cars his family will give them away when he dies
@@User-sz2bg He won't care when he's dead.
How would you know what the family would do
Listen. If you're above 50 or 60 and you're still hoarding projects, GET RID OF THEM TO SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO FINISH THEM! YOU'RE NOT TOUCHING THEM. YOU'RE NEVER GONNA TOUCH THEM. LET THEM GO, GET SOME MONEY, CUT YOUR LOSS& MOVE ON WITH LIFE!
Seriously though, hoarding only makes shit harder for your family when you pass!

I agree with you, sir.We get older , let him go
Love watching RR having to bite his tongue when he really wants to say “this is all shit, can you take me to the good stuff?”
Yeah I'm wondering if he's thinking that or is he playing it cool so he doesn't show his hand.
@@rgii8060 it’s both for sure. Gotta have a good poker face to get a good deal
Well, yah know if you wanna buy something, it's best not to burn your bridges. He's a guest
I was not impressed with the first place
That's why he holds off on the Miller Lite until after the deal is done.
His reaction when you said “wire you the money” was fuckin awesome 😂 sweet cars, cool place
wire, WTF is that, lol
Way better than tv series. Keep em coming. Nice pick ups. 👍👍
“I buy cool shit not $5 stop signs” made me laugh!
The Owner knows What he Got and Not trying to apart from his collection or lowering Respect to you Sir
Best line of the video “ drive it in the rain” ! 🤣😂🤣
I live in Minnesota and I never run into these sweet deals. Well that's the way it goes. Good for you 👍
Have an online long time running opened end offer for cars you'll get them too

wow,the guys is nuts on his prices for sure.just wait until his estate sale.sad but true!!
Shit that S-code 1969 mustang for $25.000 is a still $100.000 car fixed... wish he let me know where that is I put the cash in his hand
@@curtiswalls6440 you'd find it if you really wanted it hell that guy's daughters on these posts
Hey Richard that old man was a slick Willie, and tighter then a drum. Some good cars you picked up, not a bad day.
Hey !
Chase ! ... The Bus? Where's the school bus ! Seemed like it was your baby , the man in charge ..
Glad 2 have you in Minnesota again!! Lot's of awesome gems in this State!! Cold beer is a must !! Keep it up Richard!! Love these vids !! Especially Sport Wheels deal, total gold mine!!
Go Cubs Go❤😅😮
There just gonna sit there and become history with his prices
And
Thanks to Richard for snagging these old cars from these old hard nosed stubborn bastards and movin them across the universe so we can keep em alive.
I appreciate the way these men do business, respect!
some sellers just blinded by $ - but even junkers = once you start to move them = your into BIG $ right from the start = before strip and rebuild !
That old boy is pretty sharp 😎
Got to LOVE Minnesota, every car barn ALSO has a bunch of cool old tractors in it too.
Richard rawlings in tha house woop woops much love and respecto brotha 💯 🙏 ❤ from Wyoming, Michigan
Good stuff. I really like Richard in this format, not the over-produced TV show character. Just a dude getting it done.
Great video! That ole dude thought he was getting the cash there and then, boy was he surprised!
Much respect to old man he collected all those cars and owns all those properties Richard like a kid in a candy store
Old man said “Drive it in the rain if you want it washed”.
😂
This old man was a hard sell! Guy from the old school wasn't budging
Watching and listening to them write on the hood of that new truck hurt my insides.
Ya like when they scratched out the cars with a big swoop. I’m thinking “ can you guys go to the picnic table”.
It's a rental
Richard for the WIN. Pickers = " They buy stop signs for 5 dollars, I BUY COOL SHIT" love it. Rich You are the man.

@@barbiegross1002 guess you missed all the vehicles outside in the first location
Love that 51 Ford pickup!
I have one. Been if my family for generations
Non scripted an raw is where Richard an Dennis do best.
The look on Richards face when the ol man ask if he had a shop lol
And then no reaction when he said he owned Gas Monkey Garage
Business is business and any experienced classic car person knows there can be some strong attachments to material things causing one to bite their tongue sometimes. Regardless, you can never go wrong being humble, kind and respectful.
I like how Richard, tells you the prices he's buying and selling at.Makes it more interesting.Shame Dennis Collins doesn't do the same!
A lot of the people he buys from don’t want the price discussed on camera
Yes I thought the same .it makes it better with the prices.
Dennis is in a totally different League
@@barbiegross1002 Not the point i'm making!
Yes! Richard ! You Got it Buddy, Congratulations! Always Watch ing your Great Finds And Your Story s.

*He talks money like its Easy* *Being poor its fun to see*
amazed you bought anything tbh

Richards reaction when he tells the old man “I own gas monkey garage” 🤷
I'm surprised the old dude didn't say, "what's a gas monkey?"
The dash hanging in the garage is from a 36-37 chevrolet truck .
Dude I'm digging your channel. You rock.
Tragic when you see how those cars were left to rot, I can imagine RR crying for days at the wasted opportunities. Great Channel!
You are a true business man.
Man the behind the scenes haggling is CRAZY! You do your thang Richard!
Drive it in the rain haha guy has some one liners
You were a Gentleman in your transactions. Liked the vehicles. Business and play makes Richard Rawling a happy man...How about the Monkey"
As a car guy, it makes me sad to see so many unfinished project vehicles just sitting and rotting. 😔
How does a car in a sealed up garage Rot
It is so good to see Richard more relaxed and calm compared to his time at Disco...
*SO ITS BEEN MORE THAN 1 MONTH WITHOUT AN UPDATE ON THE BUS WHAT HAPPENED TO THE EVERY WEEK UPDATE ON THE BUS?* 😏😒
NO 2 MONTHS NOW...
Cause he doesn't have a crew that knows how to build. Don't ask rhicard he's just a hustler not a car builder
His last head mechanic Aaron takes 1 year+ per project at his new shop. Although i think he only has one employee. Gas Monkey isn't a true shop. It's a film set with a Gas Monkey merch shop next door. Richard is the "star" and his lackeys are his co stars. He knows RUclips, endorsement deals, and selling merch are where the money's at. And I'm not knocking his hustle, he has a good business sense.
Richard you should have brought Dennis with you for those Mustangs...that man's knowledge is just insane!!!
Coucou de.france. Merci Richard vous êtes super. Merciiiiii
I am impressed that old guy remembers all the details about all those cars.
I'm from Australia so the concept of collecting this much stuff isn't a thing here and I always wonder how the owners afford to buy everything and just have it sit there for decades ....
They were made here their s*** tons of them and he bought them when they were cheap
Because when they buy this stuff it isn't worth nearly as much. Some of this stuff was probably acquired for free
The man selling the car's really knows what he's doing.👍👍
18:37 old guys reaction is priceless lol
Loving the format on RUclips so much better than Discovery's format. This is so much more about the cars and the business than the trumped up drama that Discovery was going for.
How do you always to go barn finds without a decent torch 🔦
Love watching Richard hustle but the only way he's gonna beat that chap is with a bat 💯🤣
64 galaxies is awesome
Gotta love Richard’s math lol!
I dig that this guy gets us in on the haggling. Something I never hear over at DC. Subscribed
You should have gotten the jeepstr and sold it to Dennis
Was thinking the same thing!
I think Dennis is smarter than that! He doesn't want any of rhicards junk
@@robertevans6621 he's bought many cars from Richard
It was too altered wrong frame
That dude drives a hard bargain. But he kept his cool and walked away with some good ones. 😎👍🇨🇦
pretty awesome haul
A horders paradise! So much junk yet so much cool stuff mixed in it.
We know where the Jeepster is going,.. Coffeewalk?
Not really it's been modified not worth nothing just junk
Definitely not junk but probably too much for Dennis to make any profit with all the work
Fair play to richard he didnt want to rob the guy .respect he had for the old guy.
Nothing to do with him robbing if he didn't come up to the other guy's price he wasn't going to get them that's how it works
Viva Dallas. Falcon crest.
Amo los estados Unidos 🤩
Got a 49 convertible and 64 galaxies outside in the first spot, yeah they're rough.. got a way more rusted out Bronco in a garage later in the video..
