    Thanks for saving the trees. I feel the same way. When I bought my property to build on thirty years ago I made sure it came with at least ten acres woods. I grew up messing around in the woods almost every day with my friends or boy scouts. Very soothing.

    Just discovered your channel... 1.5 yrs ago nov.2022 a "junk car buying" friend (Thomas Sutton) invited me to a truck auction at Tom Meyer truck salvage in Miami Oklahoma. I took home a 1939 chevy truck that been off the road in probably 40-50 yrs. I worked on it diligently for 1.5 years and now have a fully functional driving hotrod truck. Saved from the crusher. I was kinda ignorant to how the auctions worked. Thomas told me all the vehicles with that certain number... was ALL going to be crushed.. nobody wanted to bid enough to save them. Some GOOD stuff! Certainly my 39 chevy truck would have been one of them... but it lives on today in western Kentucky. I HATE crushers!! I'd love to visit your yard. Thx for saving as much old stuff as you can. It will NEVER be made again.

    Dear Mr. Silas
    👍👌👏 Congratulations 🎉 for being so reasonable = thank you very much for not cutting down the trees on your property. Trees are incredibly useful and important. Additionally: No mushrooms without trees and brushes. 😁 ;-) 2) Congrats 🎉 again for all the great purchases. I hope all that sells well. I guess the bigger your channel grows, the more stuff and complete cars you are able to sell. As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
    Best regards luck and especially health to all involved people and children. 💚💚💚

    @woobamboo3213 10 месяцев назад +2

    I think it’s amazing that you at least try to save these old cars. I know I lot of guys would crush most of these so the fact that you’re willing to keep them around and even save the noses before crushing really shows how much passion you have for these.

  • @CAROLDDISCOVER-FINDER2525

    Yep I love my trees too. It's a family thing. I come from a family of old car gatherers too. I never have to worry about my blood being low on iron I have rust flowing through my veins. I've got some patina going on with little aging thanks to nature. Great episode and I really appreciate the fact that you show these scenic views. It is true from all the travels we have done. The destination is one thing, but the trip is the real enjoyment of getting there. See my wife's only recently started watching channel a few months ago but she's never seen your kids. And she just said how adorable they are. Having Indian blood in us being a little dark feature beyond the gray, kind of partial. I think it's a great idea that they have one giant playhouse that just happens to resemble a semi-trailer. 👍

    I am with you Silas. I enjoy the trees, but enjoy them with all the vehicles. I have a couple dozen trucks and rather the trees around them. Just cools the area a little as well. Walk thru my yard and there's tons of birds and wildlife.
    Keep on rescuing vehicles as many as you can but be smart as you have been. 👍🏼

  • @user-jz5el3os3v
    @user-jz5el3os3v 9 месяцев назад

    Speaking as an old gear head, it's painful to see this classic Detroit iron being crushed.
    I graduated high school in the late 70's (1979) in New England.
    Even back then we were scrambling for body parts that were fixable / low rust. We had to deal with much worse rust even in the 1970s than these cars you have in Texas now.
    Wow, I can't believe your cars are so low rust / rust free.
    There was a old salvage yard here that had a bunch of 1955 Chevrolet police cars, but the yard owner wouldn't sell anything saying " he wanted to fix those some day".
    My buddy Scott was constantly looking for '55 Chevy parts. He kept changing parts as he found more that were rust free.
    Back then , nobody made new ones.
    All these cool cars need to go live in the desert till someone needs them.
    Great video. Kids need to get into restoring classics. Maybe it would keep them out of trouble.
    Take care

    "When does the crusher get crushed?" I really get depressed watching this... tears in my eyes, really. I know you have to make a living, to demolish/crush those old cars...
    I can't do a job like this. As a young boy I wandered among scrapyars, thinking every car had a 1st, 2nd and maybe more owners. Brand new every shiny car stood in the showroom. Waiting for the first buyer, who would leave the dealership, to make it's first miles...
    In the 80's I made photo's of old rusty, overgrown cars, all of them longe gone. I am in my 60's now, living in the Netherlands. All those scrapyards are gone now. No more cars in nature, no entrance to look around even. Everything numberd, catogolized, in shops and on the internet.
    I am surprised to see so many old cars still in fields and bushes.... but soon all gone, I am afraid. It's sign of the times. Good you make films of it. In a 50 years from now or so, you will be on a "history channel" Old folks watching all this, like me, with tears in their eyes, I expect. I wish you all the best though.
