Dennis is such a pro. Treats everybody with respect. He seems to have done his homework on reality stuff. He doesn't try to portray being overly stupid cool like alot of reality people. He is just being himself, which is awesome.
You heard him say he spent time on the phone. Sending video, and scanning paperwork. Send out a scout to verify the car is legit, then Dennis comes out. That's just smart. Doing all that and grinding someone further isn't cool. Every car has a set value and needs a little or lot to make it mint. That's the profit margin.
Thanks again for making the trip and giving us a lifelong memorable experience. I’ve been watching you since the fast & loud days and to meet you in person I can say to everyone here that you’re a class act/as seen on TV/Online. Keep doing what you’re doing! Pierce
The year was 1982 and I had joined the Navy in 1981. I was home on leave to get my car and drive it to CA for my training before being stationed in Hawaii. The transmission went out of my 1966 Pontiac Catalina and I decided that I wanted a truck to take with me. As we were at the dealership, they had a 10th Anniversary Trans Am, Silver 4 speed in the showroom that they were asking $15,000 for and I was so close to pulling the trigger. God I should have bought that car back then. Seeing that Trans Am gave me a MAJOR FLASHBACK.
Love that Nauset Beach t-shirt. Used to drive my new '67 GTO ragtop to Nauset in the '60's. Dropped the top & tucked the nose of our surfboards under the front buckets. 6 eight track tapes, Beatles, Beach Boys, Dylan, Animals, Stones & The Who. Man, what do I hafta do to relive the Summer of Love; 1967.
I have both of these cars...My '79 T/A 10Th Anniversary is one of the 400 engines with 4 speed and my 70 GTO is Automatic w/ 400 ram air 3 engine. It's burgundy and has the judge wing added (not a judge). Love them both. Great find on your part Dennis, like ve your videos.
Dennis is blessed because he always pays the price discussed. He never try to a bargain or get over. He is a true respectful gentleman. God bless him and his family and also his employees
Great memories. I was raised in a Pontiac family for real. Shortly after his 50th birthday, my dad bought a 10th Anniversary Trans Am. It had every option I'm sure. It wasn't very powerful but it rode like a dream and handled well on the highway. Great cars!
My best friend in the Air Force owned a 1979 Trans Am in the early eighties in white. I drove it for many miles in Texas at triple digit speeds. I was much more impressed with it after I drove it than I expected to be. It really hugged the road and tracked and handled well, much better than expected.
I know a lot of prep work goes on before the actual deal is sealed. You guys always nail it when it comes time to close it. You make it look so easy and are very respectable in the process and that's the professional shining through. Class act.
I always press like before I watch because I know its going to be a great video every time. Dennis is so down to earth and has so much respect for everyone he meets. Top guy.
About time there was a find or two in my old stomping grounds. Used to work in Marlborough and dated a girl from Hudson (where the Rail Trail is). Wicked cool cars Dennis!! My brother had a 1980 TTA Pace Car for a few months back in 1984. Always enjoyed driving/riding in it!! Until next week when New Jersey (also my old stomping grounds) comes in.
Another Outstanding show. Y'all just keep finding Holy Grail cars. So glad too. Alot better than them wasting away or being thrown away. Like you, the 70' GTO is my absolute favorite of the GTO's. Just Beautiful 😍. Keep up the great vids.
Dennis i absolutley love your videos! Amazing cars you find and save. Your personality is just "OUTSTANDING" . then sitting down and feasting with ordinary folks just like us all. thanks again for shareing your adventures
Hello Dennis. Have 3 vintage Trans Am`s in my garage, & more. I own a 1978 Bandit Trans Am With the 7.5 lit. engine, that was seen in the movie,Smoky & the Bandit. A car never seen in Europe with a 455cui Pontiac big block. One of a kind. She is certified. .
Yes sir, looks like you found a few more gems. Enjoy your videos. Great crew Dennis! That '70 GTO Convertible, Ram-Air III / 4-speed, with AC/PW/PS/PB (presuming front disc/rear drum), Dash Instruments Pkg. is (I would presume) very rare indeed (as equipped). And the condition looks very nice from what I can see in the video. The 1979 Firebird T/A 10th Anniversary model looks darn good. Admittingly though (to me) the 400 Pontiac engine and 4-speed manual transmission is more desirable. With that being said though, I wouldn't pass on one with the 403 Oldsmobile engine and Automatic transmission. Specially this one with the low miles (5,511) and condition it's in (plus the documentation). Nice find. Back in 1980 (while on active military duty, USMC) I went to order a 1979 Firebird and intended to specify the 400 engine and 4-speed, with other desirable options...WS6 pkg., 4-wheel disc., and black with saddle interior. I had just missed the cut off date to order a 1979 by a few weeks, but could pre-order a 1980. Unfortunately the 400 engine was not available for 1980 model year. A few months later, I ended up getting a loaded (highly optioned) 1980 T/A, SE (Black, Tan interior, gold highlights) that looked awesome and was nice to drive, take on road trips, etc. But that 305 4bbl. engine paled in comparison to the 400 Pontiac engine. Tom M., Hawthorne Ca. Combat Veteran (ret.) '21Challenger SP/WB, Granite Metallic with Black Plus Pkg. Interior, 392/8A, Harmon Kardon, more. Magnaflow 3" 304s/s exhaust '21Harley Davidson Road Glide Special, rare (1-yr. only) Snake Venom with Black Pkg. (chrome delete), 114 Cu. In. Stage-2 engine (S&S equipped). All the goods (Bars, Kahuna Collection, Rockford-Fosgate/HD Premium Audio w/Sirrus XM, HD Oil Cooler Fan, etc.).
That GTO is sweet! A good friend of mine had one a few years back, it was a Cardinal red 1970 Ram Air III automatic GTO black top convertible, in perfect condition, all factory number matching and completely loaded as this one is, with ac, power top, and trunk and all, Sad part is, he was rear-ended while at almost a complete stop making a right-hand turn by a drunk driver in an F-350. running 65 mph. his rear bumper was in the center of the back seat. That was a very sad night for him, he loved that car.
"With these options it is a rare car, but with the double ringed cigarette lighter AND optional rear seat cup holder, it's a HOLY GRAIL car." Dennis is the definition of an optimist!
Hey Dennis as always you find the holy Grail of cars the people work for you you take care of them very well and even the people you buy from you take care of those people too again that's why you are successful you give back and everything you give back comes back to you better and better keep up the good work
I just bought an older Dennis Collins barn find, a 1970 GS 455 convertible he found in Texas back in 2009. It was bought by someone in Canada and I bought it from him and brought it to Florida. The seller told me about Dennis and I've enjoyed looking at these videos of all of the other cool cars he's located. Great stuff!
Dennis can take me to dinner anytime 😊 no holes bard great show and super nice guy how he was ever friends with gas flunkie is beyond me ps I own a 1970 gto convertible love ❤️ my gto and another of other Pontiacs
I am living vicariously through you Dennis! I appreciate your love for all types of vehicles. From Jeeps to Broncos and muscle cars to foreign cars. I also love them all Your living my dream! keep up the great work!
Love watching the coffee walk as often as I can. I also love seeing Pontiac getting its due these days, they have been becoming more and more popular. The talk of the town if you will. I’ve been slowly but surely restoring my 79 10th anniversary 400/4 speed that belonged to my late father after it went missing for 15 years. I have also recently stumbled upon a 1989 Gunmetal Metallic GTA trans am 5.7 auto. Only 644 GTA’s in the color and even way less with the leather interior, t tops engine combo. Keep doing what you do Dennis, cheers 🍻
Wow Dennis this is one of the best finds so far! Back in the day I had the Gold Edition 4sp T-top version of the Trans Am & GTO's especially the 70 convertible are at the top of my list! As you always say outstanding rescue!
Dennis, my dad bought a brand new Pontiac Trans Am back in 1979. I was 3 at the time and I can still remember him coming home in that gorgeous red car. Luckily I still have it. It was cool hearing you share the history of the car, 403 Olds automatic.
Awesome car score and what an amazing lunch! Made me hungry for real. My girlfriend had a 79 T/A but it was a 4 speed... Loved it then and seeing this one reminded me of how special these cars are.
I freaking love Dennis videos. Man to have money and do what he does is so so cool finding these one of a kind vehicles and rescuing them to either keep or sell to someone that appreciate these vehicles. keep up the great work looking forward to more kickass videos 👍👍👍👍💯💯👍👍
Dennis i use to laugh every time you and Richard were on the trail of a mustang and i was waiting for it "this could be a holy grail mustang " and Richard would throw his hands in the air and say "oh here we go with the holy grail stuff again " always great entertainment them road trips
Dennis is such a pro. Treats everybody with respect. He seems to have done his homework on reality stuff. He doesn't try to portray being overly stupid cool like alot of reality people. He is just being himself, which is awesome.
He doesn’t need to do his homework on being cool. This is just who he is. 👌🏻
I agree, if I was spending the money he does, I'd being doing serious research too. Hes made a career out of it.
It’s why people call him to sell their cars. He’s honest well mannered and very respectful.
Overly stupid cool and loud !! One car man comes to mind for me
Truuuuuu
You just keep finding gold everywhere . I love that you don't negotiate on camera and always seem to be fair and honest with people .
You heard him say he spent time on the phone. Sending video, and scanning paperwork. Send out a scout to verify the car is legit, then Dennis comes out. That's just smart.
Doing all that and grinding someone further isn't cool.
Every car has a set value and needs a little or lot to make it mint. That's the profit margin.
He names Dennis! Not Richard! Lol 🤣🤘🏽👍🏻👊🏿😎
We don’t know if he’s honest or not he needs to say what he paid
Perfecto trabajo en esos carros
Thanks again for making the trip and giving us a lifelong memorable experience. I’ve been watching you since the fast & loud days and to meet you in person I can say to everyone here that you’re a class act/as seen on TV/Online. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Pierce
Thank you, Pierce! It was a pleasure to finally meet y'all!
Thank you for taking wonderful care of these two beautiful cars!
I’ve lived in Northborough and grew up on Hudson Street. This episode really surprised me. You gotta be Bearfoot Whitney area.
Pierce haven't seen you much since Mike moved to Florida weird seeing you on another RUclips channel
You related to Dave Pierce who owned the gas station?
I think it's absolutely awsome Dennis invites the families to go out to eat and also pays for it. All the way stand up guy.
But they seldom go because he beat them up on the price - it’s all decided ahead of time my friend
And it's a tax write off
Dennis. I never know whats more impressive ,your finds or your appetite ! 💓
His razor focus on the prize and background ground work thats done before he arrives at the deal
That is a ton of food.
The year was 1982 and I had joined the Navy in 1981. I was home on leave to get my car and drive it to CA for my training before being stationed in Hawaii.

The waitress passed the vibe check with flying colors ❤
I love the way Dennis orders food that’s an order! And y’all showcase these restaurants awesome work
Tax write offs are a beautiful thing.
And they threw in a pizza on the house.
I have both of these cars...My '79 T/A 10Th Anniversary is one of the 400 engines with 4 speed and my 70 GTO is Automatic w/ 400 ram air 3 engine. It's burgundy and has the judge wing added (not a judge). Love them both. Great find on your part Dennis, like ve your videos.
Dennis is blessed because he always pays the price discussed. He never try to a bargain or get over. He is a true respectful gentleman. God bless him and his family and also his employees
Great to see car guys still doing cars! Had a 1970 GTO with a 455 in. Wish I still had it.
That was 1 of my favorite set ups👍🇺🇸
Great memories. I was raised in a Pontiac family for real. Shortly after his 50th birthday, my dad bought a 10th Anniversary Trans Am. It had every option I'm sure. It wasn't very powerful but it rode like a dream and handled well on the highway. Great cars!
29:15. Alex is a lucky man. You can tell Dennis appreciates him when he tries food in his honor when he couldn't come.
This show continues to blow my mind !
I would have brought the enclosed trailer for those Pontiacs.
My best friend in the Air Force owned a 1979 Trans Am in the early eighties in white. I drove it for many miles in Texas at triple digit speeds. I was much more impressed with it after I drove it than I expected to be. It really hugged the road and tracked and handled well, much better than expected.
This is one of my favorite RUclips channels....we always like the restaurant footage as well!
UP DENNIS I LOVE 70 GTO
Love the Pontiacs, especially the GTO. I have a 74 455 Trans Am along with a 70 Olds Rallye 350 4 speed in my garage. Love them both.
Beautiful works of art! Back when cars still had class, style and guts! Instead of today’s plain boxes!
I'm not sure which I like better. The cars or the food part of each episode. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
The Finds are AMAZING 👏 🙌 but I truly Love the local food spotlights! Way to exemplify Living You're Best Life!
I'm always hungry after these shows!!!
17:50 And 1970's kitchen in Avocado 🥑 green.
I know a lot of prep work goes on before the actual deal is sealed. You guys always nail it when it comes time to close it. You make it look so easy and are very respectable in the process and that's the professional shining through. Class act.
WOW.... that GTO is AWESOME..!! Nice find Dennis....!
I rewatch episodes sometimes because I just can't get enough. Kelsey Collins needs a channel featuring her racing and behind the scene of life.
I appreciate you putting in the time to explain the small details that make these finds rare and cool.
I always press like before I watch because I know its going to be a great video every time. Dennis is so down to earth and has so much respect for everyone he meets. Top guy.
My favourite RUclips channel by far and thanks to Dennis and his team. Thanks for everything.
That gto ragtop is such a good looking car. Great body lines. Terrific flow.
Beautiful cars have a good weekend and stay safe Jimmy from North Attleboro Massachusetts
About time there was a find or two in my old stomping grounds. Used to work in Marlborough and dated a girl from Hudson (where the Rail Trail is). Wicked cool cars Dennis!!

Look forward to coffee walk and it never lets me down! Amazing cars
Outstanding holy grail Pontiac !! Absolutely amazing find,
Grab your cup of Joe and let's go

I believe the Holy Grail was number one and number two Pontiac 67th with Mr Rollins
1967's two of them

I'd love a TransAm. What a gorgeous car. I love the respect shown by Dennis to the sellers
your face dennis when all the food came out on top of the appetizers after the pizza trays , wishing i was there
Two of my favorite things. Cars and food. OUTSTANDING!!!
The T/A is probably one of my all time favourite cars. My Dad had a 1970 T/A 455 4 speed. White with the blue stripe. I wish he had kept it!
10:35 that’s a nice t shirt that ;)
Gday gang,
Thoroughly enjoyed as always, thank you.
Happy Aussie Father’s Day to all the Aussie Dads out there for tomorrow.
Cheers 👍👍🍻
Thanks for another great video on a holy grail find, love them! Keep up the great job.
My 80 trans am with a 454 4 speed has to be pretty rare!!
@@ripvanrevs probably not!
Hey Dennis as always you find the holy Grail of cars the people work for you you take care of them very well and even the people you buy from you take care of those people too again that's why you are successful you give back and everything you give back comes back to you better and better keep up the good work
He needs to leave some holy grails out there for the rest of us
Holy cow. Those cars are awesome. But the amount of food is amazing and I would eat it all because it all looks delicious
Never get enough of seeing these classics, thank you for sharing.
Once again Dennis finds the REAL HOLY GRAIL cars. BTY the food looked amazing too. Can’t wait for the next one.
Watching 🇿🇦❤️🇺🇸☕☕☕
I just bought an older Dennis Collins barn find, a 1970 GS 455 convertible he found in Texas back in 2009. It was bought by someone in Canada and I bought it from him and brought it to Florida. The seller told me about Dennis and I've enjoyed looking at these videos of all of the other cool cars he's located. Great stuff!
Great Pontiacs!... Watching Dennis close the doors by the pushing on the top of the window gave me goosebumps!!!
Cool find,as the proud second owner of a gold,71 Pontiac GP,I find these cars bring back such great memories.
Dennis can take me to dinner anytime 😊 no holes bard great show and super nice guy how he was ever friends with gas flunkie is beyond me ps I own a 1970 gto convertible love ❤️ my gto and another of other Pontiacs

Oh man, Dennis you just tickled 2 of my sweet spots. Very rare Pontiac classics. GTO & T/A both really loaded. No matter what you paid … well bought!
Thanks for the close up of the 1970 GTO shift knob.
This whole time I thought I had a VW shift knob.
Very cool.
Kick butt cars. Love the Pontiac’s. Need more of them.
That Trans Am would look awesome in my garage. Another awesome coffee walk.
Love watching the coffee walk as often as I can.
I also love seeing Pontiac getting its due these days, they have been becoming more and more popular. The talk of the town if you will.
I’ve been slowly but surely restoring my 79 10th anniversary 400/4 speed that belonged to my late father after it went missing for 15 years.
I have also recently stumbled upon a 1989 Gunmetal Metallic GTA trans am 5.7 auto. Only 644 GTA’s in the color and even way less with the leather interior, t tops engine combo.
Keep doing what you do Dennis, cheers 🍻
Love the silver interior. Great looking car.
Thank you for all the videos you make
Wow Dennis this is one of the best finds so far! Back in the day I had the Gold Edition 4sp T-top version of the Trans Am & GTO's especially the 70 convertible are at the top of my list! As you always say outstanding rescue!
Awesome rescues! As always you and your crew are a class act. Thanks
Man that food looked really really good, and the waitress was really awesome!
I absolutely love 70 GTO s and I like this one with the options ordered.

Passione ed arte si incontrano con una professionalità incredibile ❤
As always Dennis, OUTSTANDING!
Awesome always cool rides 😎 👌 👍
Even Dennis was in Awe by the GTO
Dennis, my dad bought a brand new Pontiac Trans Am back in 1979. I was 3 at the time and I can still remember him coming home in that gorgeous red car. Luckily I still have it.
It was cool hearing you share the history of the car, 403 Olds automatic.

I freaking love Dennis videos. Man to have money and do what he does is so so cool finding these one of a kind vehicles and rescuing them to either keep or sell to someone that appreciate these vehicles. keep up the great work looking forward to more kickass videos 👍👍👍👍💯💯👍👍
Dennis i use to laugh every time you and Richard were on the trail of a mustang and i was waiting for it "this could be a holy grail mustang " and Richard would throw his hands in the air and say "oh here we go with the holy grail stuff again " always great entertainment them road trips
And, fabulous choice of music that accompanies the Rail Trail restaurant photos.
That GTO is a beauty, I would buy that in a heart beat!
