Blows me away the wealth of information people like him possess. Maybe some day we will be able to upload that data on our way out to share with future generations?
What a great guy ,love the old rolls Royce cars ,shame people think it's ok to help themselves to people's stuff ,nice to see the barn hunter back at it too
*TOM!* Well THERE you are! I was starting to worry, sir... I'm so glad to see the other of the two BEST SHOWS on Hagerty back in action (hiya *Davin!* ). This is truly another sign of the world starting to return to normal, whatever normal is anymore. Thanks as always Hagerty, - Ed on the Ridge
It makes me a little sad to hear about some people not knowing the difference between *mine* and *yours*. Their parents should have taught them! But that's a really cool collection and such a nice guy! Greetz at Howard and thanks a lot at Tom / Hagerty for the episode!
Hey! That's my Dad's friend Howard! That guy has so much cool stuff, he never told me about the 26 T Touring, gotta ask him if he'll swap or sell it to me but I'm afraid I already know the answer, lol
OMG Howard. . . You are sooooo lucky to have all these "Family" cars. . . . . . . ya Mum's, Pop's, the one you came home in from hospital . . and the rest . . . Soooooooooo lucky and we have the same name brother. . . Howard . . Not many of us. (my crazy name is just the internet name ya know) My mother named me Howard because she said she thought "One day you'll be somebody and you'll have a uncommon name that people will remember" . . . . . . Well you're special too Howard . . such a knowledgeable guy. Beautiful collection. Can't wait to see the next vid
Yes, Tom is back!! What a collection this guy has. Love the way he was so confident in saying yes it will run when asked. Great, great, great to see. Barn Find Hunter definitely hits the spot!
Yea, Tom is back! I was getting worried something had happened to him. That '77 Monarch though...one of those was my first car, a hand-me down from my grandfather in '88. Silver 4-door with a red vinyl top and red interior. Amazing he has one with only 18K miles on it!
Just finished episode and 64 Buick Rivera caught my eye. The 1st time I saw a 1963 I was 7 years old and already into building model cars. When I saw it I thought for sure somebody had customized the car because I'd never seen any stock cars looking like that. 1973 era Rivera are also beauties
My wife always marvels at my ability to name the year of an fifty-through-seventies-ish car that still occasionally show up on the road. As a kid, I remember that every year, all of the major players, GM, Ford, and Mopar, as well as some "minor" manufacturers, all came out with new sheet metal and design. You just couldn't stay competitive if you didn't. Maybe the chassis were the same, (the early sixties "x-frame Chevys as a good example,) but the sheet metal had distinctive changes that made each year unique! I miss those days. Today you look at most SUV's, and you can't tell one model year from the next for several years running. They'll make a "major" change every five years or so at best. BTW, my Dad bought a brand-new 1956 Buick Special, (I was three years old when he got it.) He ordered it with the nail-head V8, but "three on the tree," -- he didn't trust those "new automatics" at that time, and it had the three oval portholes in the front fenders. That was quite a car back then!!
Those '65 Rivera headlights were a clam shell design and mimicked eyelids when they opened and closed,still one of the most gorgeous faces GM ever sculpted. What a great collection and they couldn't ask for a better caretaker.
Such an eclectic collection (As I was typing this out the host said the same thing LOL) I would LOVE to have the Lincoln Continental. As unique/eclectic as my car collector in my head is there has always been a hard top Lincoln Continental in there.
Hi Tom . Very long time no see ! So good to see you back , really missed you and Barn Find Hunter . It still amazes me to see these "collectors " who seem to have no intention of ever selling , restoring or showing . You must sometimes have to bite your tongue ! Thanks Tom .
My first car. Purchased in 1966. A 1955 Buick Special 4 door hardtop. $25. 85,000 miles. The nail head 264 CID engine was smooth. Oil came out every 3000 miles barely darker than when I put it in. I hated the oil filter but after being bathed one time I learned.
Its to bad they he was able to find a building to show them off to the world, Howard has some beauties I would love to drive, but cannot afford to keep it running although where I live it would be one that everyone would love to see. If I had the funds it would be the Model T to restore from ground up. Yes, I would love to have a Buick Road Master or a RR. One of a kind man just to talk to about each and every car that he has. Love to read a book of his life story about how he came across these automobile's. This Page I need to save just for the enjoyment,
I can't imagine the rust these cars have underneath from the moisture. My parents bought a property 25 years ago and it had a lot cabin and a 5 car garage/workshop. The floor was grass and gravel. It did have garage doors. But the ground was always wet in there like this garage here where that rolls is. I put an 80 grand wagoneer in there. Super low miles. Not a spot of rust. Just beautiful. It stayed in there over the winter. When I got it out in the spring it smelled musty and moldy. Underneath it was coated with a thick layer of rust over absolutely everything under that car. I was sick. Ended up selling it because it was too much to take care of for me at that point. I just can't imagine what is happening to these cars. Sad. Cool collection though.
We need a revisit and a more in-depth episode with this great guy. I really enjoyed listening to him explaining the cars and some of the stories attached to them. The fact a few were running condition was great to, Perfect follow up would be to start some of them. Once again fantastic episode cheers from Australia :)
Howard is a neat guy, you're lucky you met him. I agree about that series of riviera, they were sharp, ran good too. My step-grandfather had a 65. Howard is right, the 50 Buick is some car. Mean looking grill with those big teeth. I'd buy the same one he wanted.
Finally! I've been missing barn find hunter ! very unique collection but I like it. I'd love to see an OBS Chevy/ square body collection if you ever found one
Welcome back! I’ve missed your show and this is one of the best episodes ever. How I’d love to visit Howard and hear his stories, this was the next best thing.
I have the same sentiment about this amazing gentleman that I have about many others: I don't know if I should admire his taste and effort to preserve history, or if I should be angry at hoarding beautiful cars and leaving them to rust and collect dust. But I do agree that Buick is the most elegant car company.
I always liked the game of going back in time and ordering any car. Mine would be a brand new 1955 Chevy two door hardtop with all the available accessories, power pack V8 with three speed overdrive, air-conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power windows and power seats, clock , pushbutton radio, electric wipers with the body white over red.
Wow! That's quite a collection of cars. Many of them low miles. 5 Rolls Royce's! So many cool old classics. You never know who has a sweet little honey hole of cars that makes me jealous.. That you for the tour.
I met this guy at a Cars and Coffee, he is a very knowledgeable and nice guy!!! He directed me to this video. He had the two tone Rolls out. And finally got the concrete pad in there he said.
Great to have you back Tom a lot of us were starting think the show was done but checked everyday just in case! Today was a great surprise!! Keep them coming!! Canada
Wow what an awesome vintage car collection this older gentleman needs to bring All his cars together and have them properly secured and away from thieves, i know if that was my car collection i would Defiently invest in a much bigger indoor storage and very high tech security cameras and alarms to deter thieves AWAY !!! Thank you for sharing your video of this great car collection God bless🙏🙏❤️❤️
Nice car collection! I hope this guy gets to restore, repair and maintain these old cars. The storage facilities are better than nothing but not ideal.
We're happy to announce Barn Find Hunter will resume its EVERY OTHER WEEK release schedule for the foreseeable future! - No more seasons!
Yaaayyyyy!
Best decision Hagerty could have ever made!
Fantastic!!!
Excellent news! Thank you Hagerty! 👍👍👍
That's great news
This guy is awesome. Very knowledgeable and seems like a kind soul.
Great episode! Nice 63 riviera
Blows me away the wealth of information people like him possess. Maybe some day we will be able to upload that data on our way out to share with future generations?
FINALLY another Barn Find hunter video. Missed them
Same. Thought he was done. But I am mistaken
They need to do more no doubt
This guy is legit, running and driving the cars, etc. Worth a revisit!
Howard is awesome and his collection is amazing. Glad to have you back Tom.
So cool guy
This video should be twice the length, this guy just knows his stuff and I love it!
What a great guy ,love the old rolls Royce cars ,shame people think it's ok to help themselves to people's stuff ,nice to see the barn hunter back at it too
I love Howards passion for automobiles. He is a very knowledgeable fellow who knows exactly what he likes.
Amazing how he remembers the mileage on all these cars!
Keep ‘em coming!! One of the best series on RUclips
My dad was a Buick mechanic for 38 years, great to see all these old Buicks, thanks.
I'm a Buick man myself I still have my 1986 Buick Regal limited it's super clean as well!!!!
*TOM!*
Well THERE you are! I was starting to worry, sir...
I'm so glad to see the other of the two BEST SHOWS on Hagerty back in action (hiya *Davin!* ).
This is truly another sign of the world starting to return to normal, whatever normal is anymore.
Thanks as always Hagerty,
- Ed on the Ridge
about time...i was wondering if we were ever going to see another barn find hunter episode
I was wondering the same!
It makes me a little sad to hear about some people not knowing the difference between *mine* and *yours*. Their parents should have taught them! But that's a really cool collection and such a nice guy! Greetz at Howard and thanks a lot at Tom / Hagerty for the episode!
Never been a huge GM fan, but those old Buicks are amazing. A serious cruise mobile for sure.
Also a fact on nailheads. They were used as a starting engine on SR71 blackbird
Tom good to see the series back on the road . I don't know what I liked more in this, the cars, or the character who kept them .
The RR's don't really do anything for me, but Man does he have some nice Buicks and Chevys there!
Now this, this is a man with a barn full of cool old cars.
So glad to see BFH back in any form! Anxiously waiting for the next episode!
Hey! That's my Dad's friend Howard! That guy has so much cool stuff, he never told me about the 26 T Touring, gotta ask him if he'll swap or sell it to me but I'm afraid I already know the answer, lol

Wonderfu, humble, solid car collection owner, who seems to be an amazing down to earth person with true values and love for the family
Man, I like his Mom's Mercury Monarch! The '64 Riviera is great also!
Great Channel. Love those old Buicks
Hats of to the guy, I have all I can do to keep my 71 gto running and not deteriorating
What an interesting story, the gentleman is very nice and his collection is spectacular.
how can one not love this guy! And all respect to Tom creating the right atmosphere
'50 Buick is one of the coolest cars ever made. :)
You're a very lucky person my friend. You have a fortune in those barnyard.
Yea, Tom is back! I was getting worried something had happened to him.
That '77 Monarch though...one of those was my first car, a hand-me down from my grandfather in '88. Silver 4-door with a red vinyl top and red interior. Amazing he has one with only 18K miles on it!

Howard Hulvey is an amazing guy! I enjoy talking with him on the subject of cars!

What a nice gentleman. I’m a Buick fan too 1967 Skylark with a 421. Thanks for sharing. Happy hunting
What a great caretaker and knowledgeable steward of these cars. He reminds me of Benny Hill as the toy maker. Awesome and rare kind of guy.
Those '65 Rivera headlights were a clam shell design and mimicked eyelids when they opened and closed,still one of the most gorgeous faces GM ever sculpted. What a great collection and they couldn't ask for a better caretaker.

most of these cars were beautiful and did not need to be restored, The man said he drives them around around regularly
My first car. Purchased in 1966. A 1955 Buick Special 4 door hardtop. $25. 85,000 miles. The nail head 264 CID engine was smooth. Oil came out every 3000 miles barely darker than when I put it in. I hated the oil filter but after being bathed one time I learned.
This guy seems cool! I would enjoy hanging with him to hear his stories.
Its to bad they he was able to find a building to show them off to the world, Howard has some beauties I would love to drive, but cannot afford to keep it running although where I live it would be one that everyone would love to see.

Great collection. Love them Buicks. Thanks.
Howard is such a cool guy and great caretaker of these old beauties! I love the fact that he keeps them all running too.
Tom! So glad you’re back out hunting again! Your series is by far my favorite thing to watch. Thank you for making them.
Love cars, but it’s the people that bring them to life, what a nice interesting person. More please!
Thank you very much Tom for the video. Iam 67 and grew up in Buicks. My dad loved these cars.
I like that 1955 4 door in the corner. My parents had a couple like that.
Love this gentleman. Guy knows his stuff!
I've got an 89 spur that was also a barn find .
Insured by Hagerty!
What a great episode. What a great way to comeback.
What a nice guy. I reckon I could talk to him for a day! 👍
A day wouldn't do it I'd say a Week Brother !
so many driveable cars. he really loves his cars. glad to see barn find hunter back in action.
This guy might be my favorite from his amazing knowledge to the seriously admirable runs-and-drivesness of his collection
I can't imagine the rust these cars have underneath from the moisture. My parents bought a property 25 years ago and it had a lot cabin and a 5 car garage/workshop. The floor was grass and gravel.

What an awesome...awesome collection. Thank you both for the tour...
Always a good show Tom. Thanks Buddy

Thanks to Hagerty and Howard for this field trip . Old cars with such timeless beauty and character .
Great episode 😋👍
Thank you Sir....
The nail heads also have small valves, which makes them look like upside-down nails.
Great variety. Reminds me of my own collection.
BARN FIND HUNTER IS BACK! Yessss!
Welcome back !
Good to see you back , doing your thing ….
So very appreciated. Thanks Tom
Always liked the 57 Buick 2 door special
If i saw that gentleman in a walmart i never in a million years expect him to be sitting on such a cool collection of classics.
Finally! I've been missing barn find hunter ! very unique collection but I like it. I'd love to see an OBS Chevy/ square body collection if you ever found one
wow!.what a collection .nice cars
Welcome back! I’ve missed your show and this is one of the best episodes ever. How I’d love to visit Howard and hear his stories, this was the next best thing.
Tom, thanks for the quick explanation of a nailhead. I’ve often wondered about that engine. Good to see you back.
Glad you're back Tom.
So wonderful to see Tom back in circulation in Barn Find Hunter! Thought we'd lost him. Such a great series.
I have the same sentiment about this amazing gentleman that I have about many others: I don't know if I should admire his taste and effort to preserve history, or if I should be angry at hoarding beautiful cars and leaving them to rust and collect dust. But I do agree that Buick is the most elegant car company.
Love this series. Perfection

Solid choice!

Howard was right...... he has some cool stuff!
I met this guy at a Cars and Coffee, he is a very knowledgeable and nice guy!!! He directed me to this video. He had the two tone Rolls out. And finally got the concrete pad in there he said.
This guy sounds like Tow Mater. Love it.
I knew exactly what car he was going to choose for that one car question... nailed it
1965 Riviera with concealed headlights and re-styled Corvair from same year. Two of my all-time fave GM's.
Very cool . What an amazing collection of classic cars
