    I've owned and or done major repair work to almost all of the 8o's cars shown in the video, did a trans r&r on those Bonneville, fabricated a 2x4 rectangular steel tube support to span the fenders, chained up the engine and dropped the cradle, then the trans right onto the garage floor ... verah niiice, so easy.

    I'll go out on a tailfin and bet since this video was published, Mort has at least two buyers for the BuickCamino by now; mostly for the front clip, and he'll make back his time and fuel to get it back home plus some pizza for Duff. Mort personifies Yankee Thrift; having been raised by a Dad who was probably well informed of depression era lessons his parents and family passed to him.

    Thanks for taking us to South Dakota, the prices were all over the place. Duff did a great inspection on every offering, he said he would give his opinion later. It's a shame they took the rads out of 90% of the
    cars as there was probably more scrap value in them than in some of the merch . Thanks once again as it
    is great to see your highlights and reactions , Take care, stay warm, maybe take Duff birding. Stu from Canada....................

    I spotted the 1960 Ford wagon in a second. Dad had a 1960 Mercury Meteor Ranch wagon. Different tail lights than the Ford. Two rounds and a third for a back-up light. It was also a two door. The guy from the moving company that drove it 3 hours on the highway liked it so much he bought it. Never seen another one like it.

    It's nice to see a fellow Volare lover. I inherited a '79 225 sedan from a friend that had 165K on the factory plugs. The electrodes on all 6 plugs were completely encased in ash, but that car would still do 120mph. Ask me how I know, lol. I have never seen plugs that bad before or since, but that car still ran somehow. I have yet to meet a person that believes me, so I have actually kept those plugs for 20 years so I could prove it. Volares have a bad rep, but I loved that car.

    This was a fun one Prostrollo Motors is still in business in both Huron and Madison. Jay-Shon, later Sanson I am told was in downtown Sioux Falls. Doug's Auto was a used car place and briefly had a store in Madison. If you can find a Skylark, same body as the Special, they had an aluminum 215 cubic inch V8 with a 4 barrel. The 63 did anyway. Probably not many left. Extremely nice weather in the Dakotas for January.

I just spent a couple of months ago 300 bucks on one was glad to get it only had to drive an hour and 15 minutes each way on my way to pick it up. But the going rate was 450 bucks for the cheap ones six to $800 for the going rate of the average. Not to mention most people buy them because they want to bed or tailgate anyway.

    What amazes me about these videos of these old car auctions is that these old cars have survived all these years. When steel scrap prices were insane a few years back, you'd of thought many of these old cars would have been rounded up and crushed. I'm "assuming" these cars were collected from farms in that area? Lord knows the old time farmers never got rid of anything. The other thing that amazes me is the cars from the 1950's and older. Here in Arizona, you NEVER see cars older than the 1960's on the road. The old cars you do see are muscle cars, mustangs, air cooled VW bugs and buses and that's it. I'm surprised anyone has interest in cars older than the 1960's. The folks who grew up with 1950's and older cars are dying off rapidly so who's emotionally connected to them today? Odd..

    That era Buick had s aluminum V8 that they sold to Rover in the U.K. They were re-designed by Rover and then used for years after. Were a pretty reliable engine, I think it ws a 215 C I D. (3.5 liter)

    That chrysler is very similar to my dads old 65 newport that we just dragged out of the weeds last year. He last drove it in 93-94? Very cool though.
