Do me a favor (and yourself) and give Mags a sub. Great content and great guy! ruclips.net/user/SteveMagnante
Hi
no, for sure not .
the last channels were not great too and finally I am on the edge of unsubscribing cause too much drama and not so much knowledge .
I can watch the wizzards channels to get more details and knowledge.
Still subscribed but the older the channels grow the less the excitement for the ideas and real content with what the channel had started and made it great.
Looks more like a collectors channel with a growing inventory. I had once 4 cars just to realize that I can barely drive one considering that I take my motorbike all the sunny days.
The Wichita Car RUclipsr thing wouldn't exist without Hoovie. Thanks spreading the love to other youtubers as well and being so generous!
Steve’s a great guy, I look forward to seeing more content from him
I watch Mag every day. I’m a GM guy but a car guy first and he’s got great content.
That expert looks like he’s had ten cups of coffee!
White powder type of coffee
@@coleriback3177
Beat me too it 😂
Definitely on the Bolivian marching powder 😂
He’s tooted for sure
Adderall 30mg Teva will turn you into a highly animated character... Allegedly..
Let’s be real shall we?…. He is tweakin’ big time…
Steve is a "National Treasure" especially for people wanting to know the obscure details of the Muscle Car Era.....So many BS artists out there....Steve is the REAL DEAL!
I love seeing people who are passionate about a subject talk about it. Steve is awesome!
Yes 👏👏👏
jesus christ that guy give you 10 years of research in 15 min - f'ing love it. People who act like they are on drugs, but the drug is just passion!
Very knowledgeable and likable gentleman. Agree! :)
@@mattadrev471 fuckin truth 🤣
I smoke weed everyday so I decided to make my very expensive habit into something productive so i smoke weed on my RUclips channel to make some money back 😎🏆
I really enjoy Steve on the auction shows. A true passion and ability to explain the details.
This is actually the smartest Automotive Channel on RUclips. Anyone who can buy a bunch of junk exotic cars that the rest of us could never afford the repairs on if they were given to us, and have his RUclips channel subsidized the repairs so he can enjoy them and go on to the next piece of junk, is an absolute genius.
While at the same time letting his viewers experience a little of what it would be like to own those cars without experiencing the maintenance nightmares and financial bankruptcy
@@geemee3364 It takes money to make money, and he started with tons of it. The genius is convincing viewers that he's just a normal middle-class guy just like they are.
is this a repost
Daddy Doug is actually the brilliant one. He doesn't have to buy any cars he just reviews them. He also profits heavily from a car auction website for cars he doesn't own. He figured it out.
@@geemee3364 well I guess that helps. So much for the rest of us that think we could make a living filming ourselves buying driving and repairing exotic junk, along with the handful truly valuable, sustainable, and easy to maintain and repair American muscle cars
@Qefna Ija ok 👌: ruclips.net/video/sxOM4GrqElw/видео.html
I've been able to "code" Mopars since I was in high school. You can find the last part of the VIN in different places, such as on the radiator support, on the cowl, under the package tray, trunk edge lip, or on the side of the engine block. Too many of these old cars were wrecked and rebuilt, or disguised to be something else. Watch the beginning of the old "Gone in 60 Seconds" and see how the pros did it back in the day. Steal a new car, buy a wrecked one, swap the VIN, door decal, engine, fender plate, core support, etc onto the stolen car.
Steve's the guy we all wish was our friend when we go look at a car. Just like Wizard being the guy we wish had the shop up the street.
I got a wizard around the corner. Actually, he's a Brony. A big, burly brony with a sparkly purple '71 Cuda. I dunno. He wrenches aight. Whaddya' gonna do.
Lucky my dad is this kinda guy
@Alexander Hazell says who? You?😆😅🤣😂
No he isn't
@@longjohn77 the mechanic thing? Thats everywhere
What a blast Tyler's having! Being able to experience the presales action vicariously through his channel...what a treat.
Steve is a walking book of knowledge. Dude knows so much about muscle cars.
Always cool to see Magnante doing his thing. The man is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to Mopars.
When i heard you were gonna introduce a mopar expert i was hoping for Steve Mags, and i was not disappointed, he is an absolute well of knowledge and his channel is a must watch.
Steve’s RUclips is one of my favorite channels. Simple and informative yet fascinating.
Steve is awesome. I love his show. Terrific presenter and has a wonderful eye for classic cars.
Seriously sad to see him so tweaked out
@@clayrobertson7674 wait so he wasn’t always like this ?
@@burntnougat5341 Is that what the kids are calling it these days? No wonder I can't ever find any meth! Thanks for the tip.
No I'm just being mean, he probably just has a severe case of ADHD and was feeling very ADHDish when he woke up this morning so took an extra pill or ten.
Greetings from AZ, my wife has been working there all week. She was a Promotions Girl for Ford last year for the MachE and was picked up by Toyota this year for the Tundra facelift. Sad I won’t be able to make it this year but should be a darn good time. Enjoy our weather.
Steve is an absolute legend. Thank you for your years of helping educate the world.
I’m glad you gave Steve a shoutout. I’ve been watching his channel for a while and I remember him from tv. Hopefully his RUclips channel grows a lot
One would expect any Hoovie car to have a lot of hidden surprises.
Fun fact about Superbirds, my family used to own 3 chrysler dodge plymouth dealerships in san jose, they would actually take the wings off to make them sell faster becuase people werent a big fan of the wings.
My dad owns a dealership
@Qefna Ija What the F are you babbling about?
@@1mandanceparty hes rich dude he'll totally hook you up WERE DRUUUNK
My dad grew up in Kansas and an old Plymouth dealership closed down back in the 70's. He and some friends got into the storage area in the back and found old nose cones and tail wings from the birds. People were taking them off because of gas as well. They looked fast (and were) and it detoured the fuel conscious buyer.
@@tomlangley6236 it's a bot
Thanks for addressing all the naysayers Hoovie. Hopefully the argument over the cheapest super bird is settled, and we can move one. It does provide a great topic of conversation, and the opportunity for creating content. Keep being the gracious person you we have come to know via the interwebs.
Steve has SOOOO much energy - an absolute expert and very entertaining - if I'm looking for a case of energy drinks I'm sure he'll have a few - I'll have to check to see if the auction is on my cable system this weekend!
Looks more like cocaine than energy drinks to me. 😂
@@olliewebbuk Ong mans was sweatin 😂
Nervous dude 😎🤣
If by "cases of energy drinks" you actually mean "piles of amphetamines" then yes, lol.
I usually watch videos at 125% speed just because talking is such a slow way to convey information. I had to back down to 100% because Steve talks so fast.
Gotta to love Steve with his knowledge and passion. Dude is awesome and so glad you had a chat with him ! 👍👍
I like Steve. When I first seen him at Barrette Jackson I wondered how he knew the things he did about everything. Watching his channel shows me how much he studies for each auction.
That was a beautiful late 60's Cushman Truckster in front of that PT Cruiser! There were actually a few of them all beautifully restored!
The expert's enthusiasm is very infectious!!
I met Steve when I was 12 in 2000 at Carlsbad Drag Strip. He was in the lanes with his '62 4 door valiant. I asked him all kinds of mopar questions and he was amazing with me the whole time. Good dude
Tyler, I've been watching you for a year or more. The last of your comments on this vid just reminds me to express that you are among the nicest, genuine, appreciative, youtubers out there. Your life seems to be going very well, you deserve it.
He really is too.
I love the way he professionally provides candid feedback.
Steve is one of my idols! His knowledge is unmatched! Great guy too! I watched him back in the day on the old Hod Rod TV show.
The fact that he felt he had to even do this blows my mind. Keep it up hoovie.
I love Steve's energy and enthusiasm! I can't for the life of me figure out why he reminds me of my party buddies from the 1980s. 🤔
It's definitely the cocaine.....
@@BCaldwell 👍
What a learned man that Steve. I like his professor voice too.
Steve Magnante on Hoovies Garage is kind of my favorite thing EVER!
You should do more videos with this dude - he makes a perfect foil for you with his intensity matched with your kind of reserved energy.
That micro woodie wagon was a Crosley, have no idea what year though as they pretty much stayed the same throughout their production life. Mostly the grill, company logo's and interiors changed but the general layout and shape was the same.
Here in Greeley,Colorado at Conquest Motors, the owner has around 7 of those,plus GTOs ,Roadrunners,and others.
steve is one of my favorite car journalist/historian. his show junkyard gold is a favorite of mine
That guy is a savant. Tough to find such knowledge with humility.
"I don't know what that is".....I think that was a Crosely.
I suggest that you have your bird front suspension restored to original. And redo the engine compartment to stock as possible.
Since you have the original metal nose, and confirm the rear hemi boxed in rear spring mount, then I would think that the restoration will increase the value worthwhile.
Steve looks like he just took a bump
Colombian marching powder?
i was about to say this guy is tweaking lol
If you would like to see more of Steve Magnante, he has a show on Motortrend (on demand) called Junkyard Gold. I don't think they're making new episodes, but if you want to see an encyclopedic knowledge as he walks around junkyards looking at rare cars, it's amazing. I could watch for days.
You're doing a great job on the Barrett Jackson coverage. Keep up the good work.
Steve Magnante is a national treasure. He's forgotten more about cars than I will ever know and is a class act.
Way to get Steve Mags on the video! Dude's insanely knowledgeable.
id love to watch a full video of Steve going over Hoovies Superbird and pointing out all the differences from a stock Superbird and such. That lil sample wasnt enough, i need the deep dive
Tyler, the first indicator on your super-bird was that the speedometer cable was disconnected. I never trust anyone that removes this as you would never be able to check the real miles on it. The amateurish way the car was assembled shows that it was a rush job and maybe their bottom of the wallet was showing.
as soon as you hear the term "resto mod" who knows what was done to it, the previous owner could have done anything and not said it.
Two of my favorite channels just met - Steve is an amazing guy, glad you got to meet him. This is a really cool video
Steve diplomatically dissing Tyler's Super Bird is the best part of this.
I decided to stay & watch because of your comment! Lol
Had to stop the video at 3:02 to take a sec and yell, STEEEEVEE!!!! Loved seeing Steve on MotorTrend and so thrilled to hear about his RUclips channel. Thanks Tyler for bringing Steve into this video!
Been watching Steve’s old Junkyard Crawl videos. Great information!
Mr. Hoovie is becoming a great appraiser in addition to buyer and wholesaler. Plus another good episode from Hoovie
What, like that rusty rotted out Subaru he bought? LOL
Man, his passion for Mopar is something to strive for, got to say. Nothing but respect there
I love Steve Magnante. He strikes me as a really nice, genuine guy with astonishing knowledge. Proper car nerd!
I have an early Piano steering wheel MB 350SLC and they are an incredible handling and balanced thing, Well its actually my Wifes.
The 116 S class though is where my heart lies and I have hooptie 350SE, 450SE, a 450SEL and a carby 280 S W116 and they are awesome and slowly getting the love they deserve.
Cheap therapy is what my wife calls them and its a hobby that keeps me home and is family oriented. Subbed to Steve Mags channel too, I loved his junkyard series and feel unrestrained on how own RUclips channel he will just Shine.
If Steve mignante says that your car is right it's right this guy is the definitive Chrysler guru anyway Hoovie hope you have a nice day
I love Steves energy this entire video. Definitely a huge fan of his.
Been following u from way below 1 mill .. amazing to see ur channel and ur garage grow man … ur an inspiration for us creators 💯
Gotta love Steve’s energy and enthusiasm!
He’s an encyclopedia of this stuff. Amazing
He’s gotta be on coke
Gotta love Steve's dealer
Man had like 50 coffees
He is fully caffeinated
You know when someone’s truly passionate about something. I like Steve a lot. I’d love to sit and talk mopar , since I own a charger.
You're doing a great job on the Barrett-Jackson broadcasts Tyler!
Even with my limited experience with Mopar torsion-bar front suspension (1972 Plymouth Satellite), I'd say the coil-overs are a resto-mod worth having. We had the bars cranked to the max on the Satellite and it would still slam against the pavement over any kind of whoop-de-do you'd find on the back roads.
That could be true though remember the superbird is 500 +- heavier and may use much higher rate bars. Also even if it didn't you could retain a torsion bar setup and use higher rate ones. Index keys are another variable and wear item. So depending on application changing just the keys does the job. It isn't the technology of torsion springs that's the issue here and a change to coils can remedy it.
Not on one of these cars, they go up in value the more original they are since they are rare.
You just had no idea how to tune torsion bar suspension. It is the simplest spring to tune. IF you know how.
Thanks @@Apocalypse_Cow! It's never too late to learn - what were we doing wrong? Seems like once you're at the end of the adjustment and it's still not enough ... where do ya go?
@@nixonkutz3018 you can change the size of the TB to the next higher or lower level and find the best adjustment. You can also change to a higher durometer rubber bushing or go with polymer bushings.
These are just 2 examples of what we used to do with our MOPAR Muscle back in the day 60's and 70's.
Good luck and keep them warm and running greasy side down on the pavement! 😎👍
Steve is a amazing wealth of knowledge
Steve is great, always enjoyed his Barrett Jackson Coverage and his Motortrend show is great too.
I’m gonna guess it goes for anywhere between $150,000-$180,000
Steve Mags is by far one of my favorite people to watch and learn from! Hoping to one day have as much knowledge in classics that he has!
That's low for such a nice low mile Hemi car. The other 440 car that sold on BaT went for $200k
@@JBBBBBBBB250 exactly! If this R code Hemi sells for less than what the 440 car went for, there's something seriously wrong. That could very well be a $400k-$500k car.
Guess I didn’t see that 440! I’d probably change my guess to anywhere in between $380,000-$440,000. I still feel like the Superbird/Daytona market isn’t as high as you would assume it’d be. Hopefully we’ll see the value rise to a more acceptable price.
If that Superbird goes for less than 7 figures there's something seriously wrong with this timeline.
@@1pcfred if I’m remembering right Richard Petty’s 43 Superbird didn’t sell but got up to $3.5 million. But normally Superbirds/Daytona don’t seem to go that high unless it’s a very rare or good example. One Daytona I’d like to see cross the block is known as the IRS Daytona. Seen it in a small classic car dealer when I was 17. And from what I can tell it’s only 1/11 numbers matching all original Daytona’s left.
Steve seems like he probably has a pod cast, or a radio show. He has the knowledge, and the voice for it.
Steve Magnante...makes coffee nervous... haha. Fun chat and sure you deserved some of those zings. In the end Hoovie...you still have a real Superbird...even if it does have a silly Hemi in it...what were they thinking? Haha. I agree...we all should subscribe to Steve's channel too.
Thing is though, what was a partial rebodied Superbird worth in 2001? 15k? 18k?
@@realMaverickBuckley Not sure that matters in 2022
He makes Cocaine nervous.
@@realMaverickBuckley you will need to go back a lot further than that, anything hemi was at least 50k early 90s
felt like i knew him from somewhere! i watch 2-3 of his videos a week. impressive how much he knows and seems to spew off the top of his head! Ive always wondered howmuch prep he does but it cant be much as it feels like he just comes up on something and knows everything possible.
Reading about people grabbing multi-figures monthly as income in investments even in this crazy days in the market,any pointers on how to make substantial progress in earnings?would be appreciated.
You have to have an idea on what you wanna invest in carefully before going in,.
@Michael, You make it seem unreal to make up to that as a passive income annually,when it’s clearly possible. I have made over 1Hunnid thousand dollars from January till now with no joke game plan. She’s a masterpiece and her name is Gabriella.
You can get to her thru her Telgram page
Evekels is the name,
This lady right here,I tradr with her she’s inventive and the P.O.T are no jokes, I won’t look awestricken u made mention of her,.
I was super excited to see Steve featured on your video! I love his channel as much as I do yours 👍🏼
Watching these Superbird rising in value, Hoovies should consider returning the most he can into into stock specs. Like replacing the front suspension to the original torsion bars and rims.
And dump those rims...😉
He has no reason to do that until he plans to sell it
Great video, Tyler! I would love to explore an auction like that! Thanks for taking us along! 😎
Is it possible Steve had a little too much caffeine? Maybe he's just a little hyper naturally, I'm not sure. But regardless, he knows his cars.
not sure it its caffeine, but in the same ballpark i guess
Think he likes a little bit of booger sugar
That mopar guy is a prime example of someone that loves their job and is just plain GREAT.
This is from the BAT description:
“This car reportedly was T-boned in a race in the 1970s, and during the aforementioned 2000s refurbishment it is said to have been partially rebodied using the driver-side door and midsection floor from a donor Road Runner”
Then why is the trunk VIN missing? And why is the hood one fake?
There’s been something very fishy about this car from day one, including the seller and the missing memorabilia.
That’s what I’m thinking also, it wasn’t rear ended and had the trunk replaced. I believe it’s a clone car he can say whatever he wants about it but would probably have a problem selling it as a real superbird.
I agree, but then again you could also argue the BaT description isn't entirely accurate, either. Who knows if anyone has the completely real, 100% accurate story of how this thing was restored.
Blah blah blah blah blah
Steve Mags is da man! Your a lucky man Hoovie to own a Superbird, DONT SELL IT!
Steve's excitement and knowledge ooozes out in every word and mannerism-Love this. Thanks for sharing such a cool person, Hoovie! Subscribed to steve's channel ❤️
Loved seeing you and Steve together! Enjoying watching the auction!
Steve’s the automotive Jim Carrey, twisting his face all around while he spews Mopar facts.
Yeah...... drugs would do that to ya
I’ve watched all of your videos. You are definitely living the life that I would love as a fellow car guy. I just want to tip my hat to you for CREATING YOUR brand and growing it to the level it is today. NOW you’re a host on the Barrett Jackson? Wow! Just Wow! I told my wife the other night that you’re a natural at hosting the Barrett Jackson. I’ve been watching Barrett Jackson since it started. Not that it matters one bit my friend but I’m so proud of what you have accomplished. Here’s to you Tyler Hoover! Enjoy the spoils.
Steve M is a living legend, he is one of my favorite car people of all time.
i love listening to Steve, he's like a historian but with cars
You deserve it Tyler, you’ve worked hard.
I love Steve Magnante! I could talk with him for days about cars!
Magnante is a class act! His knowledge is extraordinary!
That man IS the definition of a true car guy! Glad ive seen him in your video i love the knowledge he gives us thank you very much!
Where's the low mileage '83 Escort GTs or Omni GLHs !!
There's an Omni GLH at Shelby America in Las Vegas. Funny little car.
since I'm already subscribed to Steve's channel I realized I haven't subscribed to your channel until NOW, and I'm going to purchase your GT350 T-shirt as I'm finishing up a 10 year restoration on something very similar to yours. thanks for this cool video Hoovie, glad to see you hosting barrett, your doing great
I loved seeing Steve on here, he’s a fellow masshole and good people.
That two door Tahoe reminded me of a guy, down the street from me at the time, who’s brakes locked up on his. He decided the best way to free them was to constantly put it in forward and then reverse and rev through it. Only thing he ended up doing was snapping an axle.
Hey Tyler, it seems like you keep agonizing over your SB. Much like Steve, I was troubled by the "liberties" the builder took with the car. Building a restomod is really something you do with a crappy no-nothing Camaro, not a rare hemi Superbird. I really think you should go see Mark Worman and you two should collaborate on getting the car in much more stock trim. It would make for some really great video. In any event I really enjoy watching your channel keep up the good work!!! Thanks!!!
Exactly what I thought. If you are going to change everything, don't start with a rare classic.
Realistically it would cost so much that it would have to be a labor of love, Steve pretty much said it wasn't worth it now, maybe in the future if the value continues to rise.
I find Steve's channel really interesting as a Brit to learn about old US cars. Good to see him on here
The back story about it being a crashed race car that was rebuilt always sounded like it was covering for the car not looking original
Been subbed to Steve Mags for a while. Huge fan of his knowledge. I've learned tons from his videos.
Its easy enough to swap out the dash to keep the vin plate, and move the critical parts over to another junked regular car and put on some fancy paint snd gold whhels. So much of it isnt original (even though the hemi is there, its not the original one). There just isnt enough provably original there, and too much stuff that is inexplicably questionable, to confidently call it an original.
More to it than just throwing parts at a "regular" car. Superbirds have quite a bit of special "Superbird only" parts.
@@21Piloteer they could be transferred over from the real one. This one was supposed to be a just a partial rebody, but it sounds more like they took a wreck and Frankenstein grafted salvaged genuine Superbird parts on to a junked regular Charger or Roadrunner and fudged the rest like the suspension and engine.
WHAT A FKN MOMENT WHEN THE CAMERA PANS TO STEVE. THE PERFECT GUY!!
Steve is a legend.
Magnante is an encyclopedia. Love that dude
I'm glad to be wrong in this case, I just feel nervous with everything that was uncovered the more you and the Wizard looked at it
Username checks out
Steve Magnate.... I enjoyed his show junkyard gold. Love the mind barf of car knowledge.
“Partial rebody” means the firewall with the vin was grafted onto another car
Nice to find out that the vin on your Superbird proves that it's not a fake. The expert makes a great point. At sometime in the life of man of these cars they were driven hard and sometimes wrecked, and sometimes some genius decides to make some drivability upgrades to the cars so they become a little bastardized. I think it's all just a matter of perception and what's important to a person. If you want one that's all original you're going to have to pay the price if you can even find one, and one that's up for sale.
