    You have a good ear for listening. You must hear a zillion stories each day you do this job! I can see why people feel comfortable with you around their treasures. You also remind me of a much younger version of my father - dad jokes included! ‘’

    New subscriber here. I just gotta say; that story of the stationary engine in the mine is the kind of stuff I love to hear about. Would be quite the adventure to visit the mine and have a look at it.

    "You have race car parts? What kind of race car parts?". I love the way your tone changed LOL! Totally went from making conversation to "picker on point".
    I'm also reminding watchers not to skip the ads. That's how our favorite RUclipsrs get paid so they can keep making great videos. Ya ain't gotta watch, just don't skip.

    Hello Alex. I enjoy your videos . Have been watching them a long time . This video was extra exciting too watch as I enjoy old machinery . Tractors and old hit and miss engines are interesting. I have had this interest since I was 10 years old. I am now 56 . I live in Nova Scotia. Keep up the good work.

    If Canada was tropical, a large part of the US population would move there. Me being one of them. But, after seeing all that snow, I had flashbacks of my youth growing up in the snow belt of upstate NY. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    Beautiful scenery. I wish Oklahoma would see at least one snowfall like that a year. So far all we’ve had here is a dusting, not enough to cover the grass. Good luck on the BSA!

    When you told that guy they used to restore everything. Very true. Kids took mechanic class in school. Fathers sometimes bought cars to teach sons how to work on cars. Now mechanics is no longer in schools. So sad. Even took wood shop out of schools. Nowadays kids alot of times sit around on playing games and not learning extra stuff. Not all. Just some.

    The roadster/pickup was cool . If you can and you want it you should try to make a deal on that , they are as scarce as hens teeth . Well at least you paid the price of admission buying the bicycles .I think I would have picked a better day.

    I can almost guarantee that the Cali Cat came off the Carrizo Plains, one of my favorite places on earth (at the moment), they attempted to do 'Dry Land Farming' from the '20s to the '80s.... Now the upper half of the valley is basically just solar farms.
    Come Spring '19, if weather patterns hold, Carrizo Plains National monument may be having one of the greatest Super Blooms ever recorded in Northern America... (and you can set up camp, almost anywhere, as long as you are off the valley floor, God Bless the BLM!!!)

      colin heffner Pretty if it’s in a place where it doesn’t throw everything into chaos! You’re right though. One of my favourite memories is of one snowy New Year’s Eve when my dad took us out for a late night walk in the deep snow. Everyone still had their holiday lights up - it was magical! Got home, made hot cocoa just in time for Mom to get home from a long drive from a conference, and we welcomed another year. I don’t like the headaches snow brings, but that magical night stayed with me.

    Cool place he had there. Not into the heavy equipment that much but I did love the old truck and motorcycle. I hope you get a chance to buy the motorcycle. I have two bikes with the suicide shifters that I've ridden for many years. I'm not sure if I could ride a modern foot shift bike. I'd be reaching for the tank constantly.

    Alex,
    You Canadians are tough, I would wait for warmer snow free weather to look around.
    He is well organized but I wonder why he has so many vehicles,
    Aren't most of them going to sit there until he is gone??
    I guess I see potential dollars, who cam figure ?
    Cheers,

    Very cool, I live in southern Sask and we never quit picking and looking, love my old rust, have had a number of old Deeres, Masseys, and McCormicks(IH) however like u, smalls are a lot easier to handle. I have my own booth at the Centennial mall in Regina, Sask. If you are in the area check us out also check
    out Bargain Barons on RUclips they have bought a number of items from me

    I'm not much into "patina" or rust as I see it. but no matter what it is or what patina it's got, I like to see them functioning. I could watch a hit and miss engine run for hours. I have never figured out how or why it misses when it does. There is now a restoration idea going around that restores function, stops further decay, but makes it look better but not new. I don't know if they've named the idea yet or what. Sometimes they are painted, I mean, but not with paint that looks fresh, it looks aged but solid. I don't know what they do to the paint to make it look that way, but it works. Makes the machine look like it's not rust and ruin, but not new either. That's an idea I can get behind, so long as making them do whatever they're supposed to do is part of the equation. I've attempted to do something similar on small things, but to date, without much success.
