Had to come back to comment because I actually felt upset after watching this one. As someone who loves vintage stuff and antiques and classic cars and also my dad just passed away and he spent his childhood around horses living in a romany caravan so my whole family collect those brass horses and caravans this one hurt. Whoever called the scrap guys on this place needs to have a serious word with themselves. I couldn't see a single piece of scrap anywhere the whole place is a treasure trove that needed to be seen by vintage & antique dealers and classic car collectors not scrap men. It's disturbed me this one Colin.
My thoughts exactly, treasure dumped into the back of a open top pickup, in the rain… yep disturbing.
wouldn't think they will scrap them, will be sold privately and give the owner scrap value sad but what can you do??
Totally agree
Have you actually watched the whole video?.. all the brass is being saved. The scrap guys collect it and it’s being displayed in there yard. They have thousands of brass items already and this has just added to there collecting
@@TheBeardedExplorer yes mate I watch the whole video. Glad they didn't just throw the brass horses but there's better places that a scrap metal merchants shelf for it and I'm more concerned what happened after they came back to clear the barns with the cars, car parts, signs, cast iron fireplace tucked away at the back, the motorbikes, Raleigh Chopper, ect. I know it's not my stuff but it breaks my heart when rare cool items like that has scrap guys sniffing around it.
I really enjoy watching your videos and the finds that you discover along with the many classic cars. However, I can't help feeling a little upset thinking about the people who once owned these items with their lives and memories now gone.
A Great find again Colin , the most valuable car actually would be the Standard, Surely they would be better contacting Mathewsons or East Anglia Car Auctions for the cars!
I would really love to know who the guy in the red puffer is to the owner.
All I heard was negativity and how he was a hoarder, but look how much money there is sat there if you look beyond scrapping (which in my opinion already shows the stupidity). All those brass objects are probably worth 10x more than what you got for scrap.
Sad story as you could see the passion the owner had. Just a shame seeing potentially someone’s life’s work just not being acknowledged for what it should be. Rant over.
I feel the same
I feel the same. Did tbe owner die or disappear.
Just go to show how much stuff goes to waste, some of them brass things go for decent money, probably a lot of collectable stuff there to! Many thousands of pounds worth of stuff! Scrap men will be in there strip it clean and you’ll see it all on eBay if they don’t just weigh it in! N them old motors are making thousands at the min! Scrappy give ya £200 for the Morris 🙈
Yeah Defo should have paid a commission fee and auctioned it all. Those metal scrappers were actually rubbing their hands greedily
He was there 21 years ago, so pretty close to the owner I guess…
I’d get auction involved definitely not scrap for sure! If it gets scrapped he’ll lose a fortune
I love your adventure and what you found :) My older Brother bought a 1958 Morris Minor it was green just like the one in the barn :) It was a 4 cylinder 4 on the floor shift standard :) What a great time we had with that car back in the day :) I think we had to work on it more then we drove it :) He taught me how to drive with that car and it was fun :) What memmories came back when i seen that green car again :) My brother has passed away since then may he RIP....Thanks for your great video and what you found :) My brother would have been so proud of your adventure :) Thank u.....!
We both loved that little green Morris Minor .....his first car
Great video as always mate! It does make me sick that people would think to scrap stuff like that especially the cars hopefully it all finds some good homes and not come back as a washing machine.
Colin ... please save the DAF. Absolutely amazing video. Thank you for sharing this.
What happened to the DAF? It has to be saved .... !!!!
Another great vid just such a shame having the scrap men come in they should have found a antique shop or collector to take those ornaments and I'd give matthewsons auctions a ring for the cars
I don’t reckon that bloke knows the true value of what he’s got there. Each vehicle should be sold for either spares or restoration. Also, a lot of those old signs and memorabilia are worth a lot at auction. Please tell me you’re helping him to dispose of the items and not just selling them for scrap.
Shame those cars may go for scrap, it would be good if a classic car auction sold them on especially that rare daf 44
The stones behind the KA are straddle stones, they were used to keep wooden barns off the ground to stop vermin getting in, they look like toad stools when in place.
Really hope those cars are saved and not scrapped.
Very very interesting, someone has already mentioned the Mk2 Raleigh Chopper which was my stand out moment. Just curious (scrap guys) they paid for and collected brass. What was your take on the Guinness sign, Coca Cola sign and spitfire model going as well? Not very brass like but obviously I don’t know what deal was made.
I don't think it was a mk2 chopper even though it has chopper mk2 rear dropouts. It has a single top tube and a 4 bolt stem like a mk3. I've never seen anything like that before. Could it be a special?
Not a Chopper but a Ground Cruiser, a very poor copy.
@@bentranmer303 Thanks i googled ground cruiser and you are right its very poor 😞
I was just about to say i couldnt believe he walked straight past a raleigh chopper .. having seen the video again . cant help but wonder . it has the 3 speed gears....... the gear handle seems to be missing I would have offered some money for it .. as for the brass guys taking the spitfire model .. chances are they know some one who will buy it even if it isnt brass.. people who make money from that gig know lots of people who will buy all kinds of stuff ..
@@thomasscott199 its a ground cruiser.a chinese copy of the chopper
Loved the green Morris minor that looked in really good condition probably worth a small fortune as is..
@20.32, Eclipse limited edition, they also did an Orion version Equipe
Another cracking video from a cracking TH-camr
The sword is the Robert locksly from Robin Hood Prince of thieves (replica)
Love this one , what will happen to the cars ,that daf 44is beautiful 😥😥😥😥hope it's not scrapped .x
It’s always so exciting to see these discoveries and know that with many of the cars featured they will eventually be brought back to original condition and in many cases, be worth a lot more than when they were sold brand new! It gives a lot of fun for collectors and enthusiasts who enjoy restoring these old beauties! (In another 50 years they will sell like famous old oil paintings) happy days!
There is Alot of Value inside that Barn but unfortunately as you hear the Guy say.......The Scrap boys are coming in a few days and they will just go by the material and Weight and I can bet that NOT one of they vehicles will ever get restored... Sad
Hi from durham colin👋👍 and great set up this one and the cars need saving defo not scrap the rover and jag sport in barn need pricing ad love to save them and daf escort nd morris need to go to heritage I think lol and this stuff should be appraised first such a shame to waste it or weigh in 💔🔥😢😢😢 but the wall is getting filled not the skips so good lads saving some💓👍 thanks for your time be safe and see you soon👍👋 how can get a hold of you please?
Another awesome vid colin hope those cars gets saved especially the minor and the daf the escort looks like a eclipse edition there very rare awesome 👌
In the last Helicopter video, the Red SAAB outside was a Saab 90, a rare thing, a Saab 99 front, and a 900 rear end from the factory !!! I had one in white. Only produced for one or two years. Why where the comments switched off??
That coin was to celebrate Glasgow Celtic beating Inter Milan 2-1 in the European Cup final in Lisbon in 1967.
The first British team to win the competition.
It probably says on it 1888, as this was the year they were formed.🍀
These videos are really good, and bring back lots of memories with the stuff you discover.
Keep up the good work bud.
Buy the DAF 44, Colin. You should get that one for your own personal collection. There were a lot of very valuable items in that barn and some of those signs command a high value too.
The 44 is very rare, check out the number DVLA registered in the UK, bet it's less than 50. I've not seen one on the road for years.
It's good that the scrap guys are keeping some of the brass for display the Daf needs saving
Great video Colin 👍that Starion needs saving 🔧🚗💨
The Morris Minor is 3-4 grand easy. The Daf's about 3k worth too. I hope they don't get scrapped, that would be criminal.
I had an escort the same as that as a first car its an eclipse 1.3 and the colour is Bahama blue
Those 2 barns had so much value! Apart from the cars and brass there was loads of other valuable stuff £50-75k??? 😮
Hmmmmm since when as coco cola and guinness signs been made out of brass and the plane for that matter thought they came for the brass
Great vid Colin, its's nice to see scrap guys that realize that not everything is for melting down or shredding.
You just know that scrappies are going to fleece them at least 2-1 lol
they were driving a 4x4 each yep .. sad but true.. I ll be honest I m one for wondering what the story is behind all this stuff..
@@robaspinall988 either took very ill/died went bust or jailed/convicted of something I would think going by the near finished house.
@@monkeymagic4555 according to bearded explorer everything was being sold as the guy was supposedly going a broard ...I think there is a different story behind all of this .. more than likely the stuff was being sold so the owners could retire with some cash .. if the keys were still available for the locks they should have asked.
Loving it already....like usual 😇✌️
Click bait. You tell us to go to another channel to find out the price after us watching the whole video. I will never watch another one of your videos
Cool video what a barn find ...think I would have offered for the daf and the escort definitely .....👍can only wait next video Colin
do you often ask the owners of the property why they haven't sold cars that are potentially restorable? maybe ask if the owners should get in touch with the car clubs of that specific brand to restore it?
i'm pretty sure some of those brass statues would fetch a good price too
Grate video collin can't belive all that brass is going for scrap . Thanks for sharing amazing you will get some views
Here in the U.S.A., the Mitsubishi was known as the Conquest.
Just to pass along a bit of VW knowledge, that's technically not a Beetle. That's a Super Beetle, there is a difference. The way you can tell the difference is the nose. A Super Beetle's nose rounds back under and has vents at the bottom. A Beetle's nose continues down at the same angle until a very tiny rolled lip at the bottom. The fenders vary in this regard as well. There are other differences, but that's the most striking one from the outside. The Super has McPherson Strut suspension up front and all have IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) out back that used a torsion bar for a spring. While these produced a better ride quality, and slightly better handling, they were no where near as reliable and as rugged as what came in a true Beetle. Those had a twin torsion bar front beam and most had a "swing" axle in the back, but the later years had the same I.R.S. setup as the Super Beetle.
The front of the Beetle was way tougher because the beam for the front was a self contained unit. If it had problems, you could just unbolt it and swap it for a new one. You could abuse those things over and over and they would come back for more. We would use them in buggies and launch them off jumps with no worries of them ever failing. The Super Beetle's Struts mounted to the inner lip of the front trunk (boot to you guys over there). If you hit the car in the front, it was really hard to get proper suspension geometry back again. I've seen those take half the abuse of a beetle and punch the struts through the sheet metal and out the hood, ruining the car for good at that point.
The rear of the Beetle was just as tough. The original "swing" axle cars did not have C.V. joints that would fail. To break a swing, you had to snap the entire axle shaft, almost impossible to do with a car that light, until you reach turbo-ed engine numbers. Those were also geared way lower as they originally had way less power, so VW made up for that with gearing. The swing axle only pivoted at the transaxle it's self and not at the tire. This resulted in the wheel/tire following the arch of the axle and caused the tire to have large amounts of negative camber under acceleration, and large amounts of positive camber while in reverse. If a driver was not use to this, and what it could do, people could possibly roll a car, but not very likely, especially in a VW, or Porsche which used the same thing. So, after a media campaign, which has now been proven to have been based on lies and doctored vehicles, against VW but most of all the Chevrolet Corvair and a book "Unsafe at any speed" by a congressman who's name is not worth repeating, VW moved to the IRS and Chevy stopped the Corvair all together.
The new IRS axle used a CV (Constant Velocity) joint at each end. This resulted in a tire that remained in almost exactly the same camber setting throughout it's range of motion. It made the car a little more sure footed, but the reduced weight transfer resulted in less weigh being transferred, which means less traction to be had, so the gain in forward motion was negligible. The gain was in stability during backing up. The reduced reliability of, at times, very fragile CV joints, when compared to the swing axle, makes the swing the more desired axle among off-road and drag race enthusiasts, where the IRS cars are more preferred by those wanting to road race a Beetle. The older cars are also more desired for kit cars, as they do not need a surface to mount the struts to. The swing axle cars are anything from 1967 and older. In 1968, the 4-speed cars were still swings, but the autostick cars were IRS. In 1969 and on they all became IRS.
They should have auctioned all the contents of the barns so that the collection would have been passed on to people who would appreciate it.
Fully agree
You let side down Colin.
Left it for you to deal with. Used you as a escape goat
Some people have no idea how much these vehicles are. Don't scrap anything! Brass is through the roof on price!
This was amazing what a find I’m glad that some of the items are saved it will be interesting to see how much everything is worth especially the cars
My Grandad's VW Beetle reg was SAB504F
This is just sad.
Someone cherished those items and now they are sold under their real value, and some just dumped as garbage.
😞
This is the most interesting of your films, though I wouldn't say the most enjoyable. It's very frustrating not to know more about the background to this hoard, who the owners are, and why they don't get featured. Also very sad that only scrap merchants got involved and not an auction house who would have been more likely, imho, to ensure that all those cars and antiques would've got into more caring hands. Just lots of exclamations of 'Wow' and 'Amazin'. With a few 'incredibles', you could've done a passable Kate Bush impression! But keep up the good work.
The Mini seats and presumably the rest of it are from a 1996 Equinox , they were a limited edition with only 750 made.
Awesome...!special cars..cool.. I really enjoy your exploring video's.. Great..!👍 Sir loads of love from India🇮🇳
Great video and yes it's can be hard seeing stuff go to scrap man but like they said they will save the good stuff but like all things if it all need to go then as a job lot is better than waiting for different people all the time so on , the gold vw beetle should be save as even if scrapped there bits on it worth money as the gearbox is commonly used as a replacement for the vw splitscreens so sought after , great video dude and big thumbs up from me
I may comment again but I have to mention the Quosh bottle in the passengers side of the Beetle. Haven't seen one of them in donkey's years! 😁
Great channel. Well done my friend. To be able to find out about these places and how you get a chance to go to these barns. Is awesome. But I was warned I'd hear the word COOL quite a lot and yes they were right lol. Please stop saying it. Sorry. Still a great channel..
Very cool vid
Honestly didn't know daf built cars
Stunned to see the Starion! I’ve got two widebody Starions so it’s sad to see one wasting away with how little remain!
Now for me it was the ford escort I'd love to own that!!
There was a chopper bike in front of that KA and they fetch a fortune at the moment. Hopefully those scrap guys paid a fair price for everything.
You should get drew Pritchard there to buy everything save it all going to waste that blue Jag looks pretty special with the red pinstripe and the badge looks like it could be the supercharged one
“It’s going to the scrap “ damn hopefully the Mitsubishi starling don’t end up at the scrap yard
Good vlog, I remember my friends dad had a Robin reliant and he used to speed in it with me and his daughter, funny im still alive
I started to get a lump in my throat of the thought of these vehicles being scrapped. Surely you would even get better money for them if you put them on eBay.
some very nice finds! keep it up and keep exploring!
Oh if I was in that barn, I would spend so much money, like wayyy too much money, including excaliber
I was thinking the same thing myself . I cant help but wonder what the story is behind the swords .. they dont look like tv or movie props ..if one turned out to be Alex kingstons sword from bouddicca that would be cool ..
@@robaspinall988 I thought the big sword looked like excaliber
Great video love the cars nice job huge thumbs up from Australia 👍🇦🇺
I hope the owner realises he's got a lot of money's worth of collectables there.
Maybe so. But why scrap man. Mathesons auction house.could sold them nice cars and make a lot lot more.they got bottom low feed cash for all that stuff. Been ripped off
That Dragon is Amazing, I believe its The Imperial Dragon by RalPartha ?? It is worth a mint... All those piecez are worth very possibly 100 times the scrap price... Sad but the Scrapers know that they aren't going to scrap 90% of those pieces, so they will live on..
I've fought the Democrats and their "Scrap Every Car and Item No Matter What It Is".. and the Brutally Corrupt Laws they've Created to Force Fines , Towing Storage, Shredding , Feez on Everyone so they can just come take Your Beautiful Car, Shred It and Ship the Metal to China.. because they Forced the Closure of All Real Industriez in America Europe, etc, to Close and ship off to china and the. They own the manufacturing and make crappy products they ship back to sell us.. but the Towns, Steel Mills, Metal Founderies, Oil Rigs, Natural Gas, Forestry, Manufacturing, Towns, Cities, Jobs, etc, Are all Killed off and those brought back are Controlled by them.. and still No real Jobs ever return.. Its much worse ..
The Daf the factory were they were produced is now Nedcar were they make alot of different mini models except for hatch which is Oxford they produce likes of.countryman and clubman and Roadster when it was in production .
I do not understand why these cars do not get sent to somewhere like the car auction at Thornton Le Dale and the other stuff especially the brass to a general auction house instead of a scrappers !!
Omg, If I had known of this, I would have Bought THE LOT... All of those Brass Items, the Collection, etc... Their are people interested in all of it.. The Brass pieces were perfect for saving and making castings of...
I've spent Decades Saving Classics and Antiquity of all kinds..
cor' blimey mate, that bob marley bonnet is mental innit 💯👍👍
U make the best video s I'd love to find some cars like that they need saveing all them cars
It upsets seeing all the brass go to waste love to save some of those cars love watching your videos mate I have a field day there love it
The brass is being saved.. the scrap guys collect it and display it in there yard
18:09 I have exactly same set of Mags for Mercedes Benz but would love a spare set like that as they're getting scarce.
You should give FuriousDriving the heads up on that Rover convertible! There’s too many good cars in there to just scrap that would be criminal
Them Mini seats are from a Rover Mini 35
I could honestly not do your kind of videos. I would try to save as many as I could. Some nice motors this time around aswell ;). Keep it up man ;)
I wish someone could save some of these cars. Such a shame.
You do love your car explores but so do we! Ace Video 👌
Hope the cars are not scrapped. I wouldn’t mind the rover cabriolet in the barn.
Fantastic video Colin. The Mini seats are from the Mini 35 which was launched in 1994 to commemorate the Mini being in production for 35 years. They are not from the 1996 Equinox model as previously suggested, which featured a sun and moon theme across the black seats.
I thought that's what the pattern was on them, the sun and moon style but my eyes are rubbish!
That mg is actually my old car
I'm pretty sure that bonnet with Bob Marley on it is from a ford granada
Yep, Mk3 Granada bonnet 100%
@@dangerousandy 👍
What a cracking video Colin 👏🏻
Them Taroni lads are top guys too 🤝🏻
Keep up your excellent work brother 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Brilliant video Colin. So much interesting stuff in that complex!
Mate!Mate! you walk straight passed the Raleigh Chopper push bike... proper sought after nowadays..
Now that , Colin , was a very interesting and entertaining video . I really enjoyed it . many thanks .
I’d be interested in the Morris. Logbook looks to have been scrapped sadly online
16:15 You have pulled Excalibur from the wall in an abandoned garage. You are now King of England~ Achievement UNLOCKED~ ;3
What a fantastic barn find, some of those cars are just amazing
As always, another brilliant video
Nice. One Colin 👍 Do you think he would sell that Guinness sign ??
Think it’s already sold sadly 🙈
I Wouldn't Trust a Scrapie with All that Stuff, Especially the Silver Coins!! There Worth a Fortune!! Crazy!!
I WOULD LOVE THAT DAF 44
Porsche wheels are 911
those rear seats look like the pattern in a Micra!!
Antiques and collectibles I'm glad the scrap yard ripped you off 🤣🤣🤣🤣
33:32
Celtic FC (1888) vs Inter Milan, looks like a commemorative coin marking Celtic winning the European Cup in 1967, first British club to do so.
Great finds, great video.
Where's the link to find out the value of all the brass???I'm very disappointed, That's the very reason I just wasted 40 minutes watching this...
Looking at the comments I must be the only one totally underwhelmed by that lot, with the possible exception of the Nissan 280z, I'm afraid I wouldn't give any of them a second glance, I thought the first few minutes of the video was a VW advert, enjoy your urban exploration more Colin
The guy is a fool selling them for scrap . The total value of the haul is literally £10k’s. Those cars on eBay would all individually sell for strong money!
Just WOW 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎
Tell how it is Colin? The fool in the red jacket. Put it all on your toes? Mathesons auction house could have sold them cars. Why scrap man? DAF 44. Only one I seen for years.xscrap man getting it. Arh. Feel so angry watching this
Me again! Some of those Brass items will be worth much more than its weight! Don't get screwed because the scrappy want to make a few quid of you!
Treasure trove of lovely stuff I want the daf 44 and the cortina estate cheers 🍻 well done guys excellent find 👌
he should have checked the engine on the daf too ..
Never call the scrap dealers, they’ll just eBay all these themselves. You hold a public auction on the site with everything starting at £1 then scrap whatever is left.
