Kudos, Silas! Thanks for being yourself and taking us along for the ride through your days. Thanks for saving that 68 Plymouth so someone can enjoy it! Awesome video!
I had a 66 Chrysler Newport when my wife and I got married. We drove it on our honeymoon. My wife didn't like the steering on it, she said it was to easy to turn the wheel she couldn't tell what it was doing. So I traded it to my Daddy for a 64 Impala he had. I was in the Army and was on my way to Vietnam so she was going to be driving it all the time. I come home on leave in 6 months and bought her a new 72 Nova Rally Sport. I drove it a 1000 miles to break it in before I had to go back. Wish I had that one now. Have a good day stay safe and God bless. Dan 🇺🇲
those S/S kegs, either slice the top off and make it into a deep fryer or slice in 2 length wise then hinge one side up for a homemade BBQ Rottis're ......
I went to the swap meet to and spent to much money lol. But another great video just love watching your adventures. You keep up that fantastic work you do and have a wonderful next adventure I will be sure to be watching your next adventures .
Swap meet tour was really fun and enjoyable. You fooled me on the model car parts. I swore you'd get stung! I don't know how you know the specs and models on half the junk you describe. Always fun to watch your vids.
I deleted all my videos because I hated the way my voice sounds AND I had some idiots on the side that were cackling and adding a lot of background noise I didn't' like.
When you said Holly carburetor that reminded me of the movie two lane blacktop or that guy went in to that little store and bought a holly rebuilt kit for like I don't know what it was $90 or $5 or something that was a good movie
Hi I talked to a friend of mine and he told me that the lens that you bought at the swap meet mount on top of the dash in front of the driver so to help the driver see the stop lights he's old Car guy so I believe him . We enjoy your vids lots of cool stuff I was wondering if you still have the 196123 dodge panel truck and the one you seen in Texas with windows is called a Dodge town wagon. Sorry for so long thanks again Chris
Silas, I see the odd pole light from the swap meet just above the door (a porch light) of your junkyard cabin as you step out onto the wood deck to enjoy an evening with the fire pit going.
This was a great video. FYI, if you have a Quadra Jet with a straight out fuel inlet and a big vacuum port on the front of the base plate, it's from a 1978 to 1981 turbo V6 Buick engine. I've been looking for one to rebuild
PS you got a cool name man if I ever have a son I think I'm going to name him after you or maybe I can get no offense but a boy dog I like unique names
Another cool video Silas ! I know i dont need to tell you but i sure hope your converters are in a secure building/location. A company behind the place i work at had the converters on their fleet of trucks stolen one night. The thieves/crackheads will get them and work all night at it too. That was an expensive night for that company !! They now have cameras and dogs. Anyway, stay safe. Cheers from Canada.
We have cameras at all locations. Even our remote locations have the trail cams that send you pictures to your phone so they can’t steal the SD card to hide the evidence.
@Adventures Made From Scratch you should go watch Jay Leno 's garage recent video with a 1956 packard Caribbean. About halfway in the video he puts the car on a lift and give a tour underneath the car. The mufflers on it look like the muffler you bought. Hopefully you can confirm if they are the same or not.
I liked your advice on starting a new RUclips channel! Just put your content out there and improve with time! Just watch Joe Rogan's very first RUclips video. It's absolute crap but it was a beginning!
Gosh, I love swap meets and auctions, especially farm auctions. There was a time when I had the money to buy most stuff I wanted. Those were the days. Glad you get to go sometimes, I understand seeing something you want but you better sense tells you you best not. Sometimes you kick yourself for not getting it or are glad you didn't. lol You are a really hardworking person, thanks for taking us along on your adventures. I have no idea what all it takes to get these videos done but please know I appreciate it! Stay safe and GOD bless
Great video today and I really enjoyed the swap meeting and it's nice to see one of the cars you sold in the past up and running around good luck with your ebay stuff
My daughter saw some cars getting smashed she said oh my God I wonder if he if he checked them for baby dolls or quarters or pennies or something she was freaking out lol
Its either you or me that is lucky! I could run this whole state and there is never any swap meets like this. I would of took my next five six months of rent money to buy stuff like you found and then of course what you do find is on a rust bucket and just not worth the efforts. You got out fairly light compared to this old man who sees things I remember using as a kid. I am near seventy three an stuff like this is unobtainium. Like a fool, I bought a CD that I knew the band from the fifties so just had to have it, got it, and wouldn't you just know it, my tastes must of changed a great deal as its got one song I like on it.... errr., I just got to quit it as its going on the shelf after playing it... just horrible.
That's great advice he should listen to you. I started about a year ago you gotta just start and do it and put it out there and let the critics be critics because they're going to help you. Like you said he'll get better over time and then he can worry about putting out good videos. What he needs to remember is people are being held hostage and forced to watch his videos. They're choosing to watch it for a reason. Whether he thinks it's crap or not they're watching it. Anyways just wanted to say that. And what the hell are you gonna do with 2 bags of engines lol
@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch don't sleep on the bicycles!!!! Old bikes go for a lot..... Ive been looking for a Sears spaceliner and clean intact ones go for 1500 easy And early 50s bikes go for 2500-4000 Little factoid....... Pee Wee Hermans bike as you see it....5500 easy
Hey Silas, I saw on the internet the horn button, same design as yours. They are saying 1949-50. I tend to believe it to be a 1950 because steering wheels 1949 and 1951 look different. I look at the truck with Wichita reminded me when I was stationed at McConnell AFB years ago.
The channels I am subscribed to often are just because the person there is excited about what they are doing. It is the excitement of the person trying to start the channel that gets me hooked. The 59 Chevrolet Truck is my favorite of Chevys. I drove one as a kid, I always wanted a 1/2 ton long wide bed.
Every car now is like the high tech tractors and most everything else, dealer and money dependent or trash for the crusher. You cannot afford to fix them because they have no intrinsic value. Every old car and truck that has no computers and is easily repaired by anyone will be valuable like gold in a short time. It’s already happening globally. There are no replacements for true a self sufficient life where you have some control.
We love the Toy Motors You bought - very Cool ! You are sooooo Right - Cash always Talks ! We love buying and selling on E-Bay ! Man - You are so very Busy indeed ! Brilliant Video and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!! PS - Yes - that 68 Plymouth was a Beauty - glad it was saved !!!!
That’s so cool you enjoyed making it. Great video and I love your fast pace narration. I feel like I could run a junkyard just from watching and listening to you!
Have you ever built Model Cars?? From what I could see it looked like lots of current reissue stuff. Maybe 80's and newer The magnifiers are used in cars with visors to see stoplights. The "handle" is the mounting bracket. Couldn't really see it very well.
i have to admit i dislike pick up drivers as i find most are horrible drivers and really likes watching you crush that pick up as i wish i could do that to most i see, not trying to hate on pick up drivers just be more aware of your surroundings as i drive motorcycle and drive school bus.
64 now collecting Dinkies toys neer go away I have 10 trucks haulers for cars cement trucks firetrucks boats all metal even an rocket laucher with a US flag on it most were made at the Lincoln toy company canada.thats even out of business for 70 yrs.
Amazing! What I see as junk, is prophet for you.
Kudos, Silas! Thanks for being yourself and taking us along for the ride through your days. Thanks for saving that 68 Plymouth so someone can enjoy it! Awesome video!
The traffic light viewer you're talking about is a prisom.
Need and want are 2 different things. LOL. Like your thought process.
That old home made light would look cool on the junk yard cabin
I like the Bad Dawg sign
I know the video is a bit old and I'm late to the game but I believe that mercury steering wheel is a 1949.
Good video Silas I’m still interested in that 58
Very cool silas u go😊
The magnifying glass things are called traffic light viewers. They are for cars with visors over the windshields
My Model A could use this also
I had a 66 Chrysler Newport when my wife and I got married. We drove it on our honeymoon. My wife didn't like the steering on it, she said it was to easy to turn the wheel she couldn't tell what it was doing. So I traded it to my Daddy for a 64 Impala he had.

Man I like that shuttle bus you have. I want to find one and turn it into a camper
1949-1950 mercury club coupe or monarch coupe steering wheel and horn ring
Awesome
This is one of the best ones you've done in a while, not saying your videos are bad but some are better than others.
I agree Richard and I understand.
@@katbot2190 don't get me wrong I like your videos
Weather report on Wednesday, June 8th reported hail the size of baseballs in Kansas (2.5”). Amazing! Hope your roof didn’t take a hit.
Very cool 😏🤗

I half expected a bunch of rats to come flying out of that truck when you crushed it.
I’ve seen it happen before
Swap meet tour was really fun and enjoyable. You fooled me on the model car parts. I swore you'd get stung! I don't know how you know the specs and models on half the junk you describe. Always fun to watch your vids.
I love hanging out thanks for bringing us home along
All those model cars! Pretty well organized! I collect those 1/25 engines too when ever I can.
Hello Silas.. that steering wheel looks like a '49 Merc.
I just did a quick search.
I found a pic of one just like it.
The 2 prisms were for seeing traffic lights,when a car had the extended sunvisors.
You need 2 of each of everything for the vehicles you drive every day. 2 battery chargers, etc.
When I strike it rich I’ll definitely do that 😆 😎
Thanks for the saves!
Great video Silas,very entertaining.
Thet steering wheel you have fits a 1949-1950 Mercury Monarch Coupe, hope this helps
Those steps work great in a trailer two story home. And Chevy truck a work tamer and desired by resto rodders for it's stripper. Build
Aren't those Magnifying pieces called Autronic Eyes. They were designed to see traffic lights if you were to close to the light.
This was a beautiful video keep it up
Hello 👋 Silas! Thanks for the video of your usual day, again 👍
My boss would like to have those stairs 😔
I deleted all my videos because I hated the way my voice sounds AND I had some idiots on the side that were cackling and adding a lot of background noise I didn't' like.
Hopefully you have another try at it. If people don't like your voice poo on them. Take care 🙂
Looks like 49/50 mercury steering wheel
Anyone can CRUSH a car. How about UNCRUSING one? Now THAT would be amazing! 🙃🙃 I enjoyed this video.
I’ll keep that in mind! That would be some fun footage to watch.
Loved this vid keep up the great work
When you said Holly carburetor that reminded me of the movie two lane blacktop or that guy went in to that little store and bought a holly rebuilt kit for like I don't know what it was $90 or $5 or something that was a good movie
Great stuff Silas. Lotta fun. Really enjoy your channel. That Barracuda looked nice. Wish I could grab one of those. Always liked em. 😊👍👍
Some great finds at the swap meet.
I like the steps ya have - maybe ya can use them to get on top of your bus and have a deck on top .
Hi I talked to a friend of mine and he told me that the lens that you bought at the swap meet mount on top of the dash in front of the driver so to help the driver see the stop lights he's old
Car guy so I believe him . We enjoy your vids lots of cool stuff
I was wondering if you still have the 196123 dodge panel truck and the one you seen in Texas with windows is called a Dodge town wagon. Sorry for so long thanks again Chris
Tough to spend money with these super high gas prices ! and food
I know that’s right. We spend about $20 an hour just on loader and crusher fuel now not counting our trucks
You could cut one of the stairs down & put by the rear door of the camping bus?? 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
We had a good 4 day stretch of 95 to 100 temps2.
Yeah it’s been at or over 100 for a week here almost. Not supposed to stop for awhile.
Silas, you should make more video from the swap meet they're cool.
That light is made from a old milk separateor strainer funnel!!!
Salis that was fantastic loved it was different than the crush stack haul load never miss a video thank you for sharing and your time.

Great video Silas , thanks for all the adventures you take us on. Have a great evening with the family.
49 Merc
Put a deck on top of Your school bus, and use a couple of stairs on the back side to get up there.
Wow, me and you are so much alike when at a swap meet. 2 broke guys at the end but happy!
the steering wheel is from 1948-49 Mercury, base model
You ought to see if Steve Magnante wants the model car stuff.
That’s 51 to 52 traffic viewer
Fury 3 looks sharp!
You should team up with other RUclipsrs like vice grip garage or others to help save cars.
The steering wheel is from a 49-50 Mercury I just checked the brochures.
Don’t tell your wife what you bought 🤫
PS you got a cool name man if I ever have a son I think I'm going to name him after you or maybe I can get no offense but a boy dog I like unique names

Silas it is a '49 '50 model steering wheel.
Nice score i believe that Chevy 4v intake under that Ford one will accept a square base Holley carb !!!! And they used it up to 1966 on 327s
Do you ever get any Deuce and a half multi fuel vehicles or drivetrains in your abode?
The Aurora car was car line marketed as 'cigar box', competition for 'matchbox' cars.
Please build a stand for draining cars. Friend of mine used to do it off the forks and died when a hose broke on the loader
Or a secondary mechanical locking device such as what a dump truck has for working under the dump bed.
You walked right by old tin toy trucks, etc. Is there no market for them anymore?
