![โจทย์โหดเหมือนโกรธเป็ดถีบ [อะไรอยู่บนหัวกูวะ ... EP.4]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Dqlb7EZ9PGk/mqdefault.jpg)
1:50 he offered $3,500
3:32 he then offers $2,500
What a scumbag
It's fake, everything is set up beforehand
Wait and then he sells to his buddy for 6500.00 lmao
I hope his buddy doesn’t see this video.
He made the second price after he spoke to his buddy. It'll cost a lot to get this thing going, everything's been sitting for 10 years, the engine is no doubt seized etc.
@@vibes3360 you ask why? It's been sitting without a carburettor, out in the open, possibly for years. I seriously doubt the current owner took out the spark plugs before he 'stored' it, added oil to the cylinders and turns the engine over at least once every two weeks.
@@vibes3360 oil coats the cylinders and prevents the rings from seizing. It's a common practice when storing vehicles for a long time, especially since fuel fumes are hygroscopic (attract moisture from the air leading to rust on the cylinder walls). End of my "rambling".
Didn't he offer him 35 first!? Lol
" It's not a Charger or anything like that, but it's a 70's muscle car." A: It's '68. B: No 440. C: The RoadRunner was a legend in itself. In 1969, it was Motortrend car of the year. There are fewer Roadrunners nowadays than the Charger, which makes them rare.
THANK YOU for pointing this out. That dude was 200% scammed.
@@taylorstanden You're welcome. I own a '69 Convertible Roadrunner.
@@user-sm2ql7nq4l Nice! I own a ‘69 hardtop.
@@taylorstanden I did have one also. Another uncle of mine on my mom's side who is drugged thief std my pink slip and forged my name, sold it and left the state.
@@user-sm2ql7nq4l Holy mother of god, man. Sorry for your loss. That’s absolutely insane.
Sneaks off to ring his buddy out of ear shot of the owners dad, at the end blames the rain "we gotta get out of there" lol
Never seen frank run any faster!!
Daniel. No He Waddles -like a Duck!
Trying to run an take a 💩 he has ibs and dui problems
Frank gets very excited
Daniel because he ripped the guy off.
You've never seen him at the buffet then
Yup 68. Looks like original B5 blue with TorqueFlit. Had one just like it, numbers matching, 4 Spd, build sheet still under the rear seat. Rescued from Montreal back in the 90's. I can't imagine a 3K deal on that car today. It's entertainment for a reason.
Agreed. They usually lose on every car they buy especially when Mike Medford charges them thousands off dollars to get them road worthy.
Dude just got the cheapest roadrunner ever. Seen worse going 4 waaay more
when? two decades ago? at three cars shows this month the average guys' age was seventy. you'll be able to p/u a running, ninety percent showroom car in five years from the widow/family that just want it out of the garage. Buddy just picked up a Rolex watch Packard Caribbean for twenty percent of the cars you see advertised.
@@dwightstjohn6927 in america maybe, F:ed part is because u guys thought old musclecars was junk from the late 70^s until early 2000's they were cheap to buy there so atleast 70% of all your old muscle cars is in europe now, Mainly in Scandinavia and germany and here the demographic is a bit different w most owners being in the 30's to 50's. Funny part is that ppl here where i live (sweden) have started selling rebuilt cars back to ppl in the states in the last 10 or so years (Jay Leno for example has bought numerous cars from here) and because we never fought in the great wars and never were poor pretty much every type of american car was sold new here as well and new american car are still are being sold here so its kind of easy to find us classics here and the culture is big :)
@@graffzon in the mid nineties I worked for a Canadian company that shipped a lot of muscle cars to the USA for about sixty to eighty grand US dollars; top, top cars like true SS Chevelles, but we also shipped to Sweden twice a year these absolute junk fifties cars, almost shells, didn't run, etc. No idea what the Swedish guy did with them: I couldn't imagine they were even recoverable. Maybe restaurant gimics??? Prices on the top muscle cars in N. America pretty much peaked at that time. They're been around that since, but I don't see the prices rising. In Sweden where can you even drive a full sized American car????
@@dwightstjohn6927 ppl here restore them. As for exemple, There are more 50s Chrysler letter cars here then in the rest of The world combined. Wr have always had full size us cars here since the first Ford was sold in america and The saab-ana plants used to put together us cars that where shipped here in parts from the manufacturers back in the day.
Google power meet Västerås that is The biggest classic us car show in the world With 10-20k us cars from all over the world coming over and this is in sweden :)
“If you wanted a muscle car, you wanted a 440!” You spelled HEMI wrong lol
yeah nothing wrong with a 440 but the 426 would be my choice
@@eevisser8405 /// I OWNED 2 GTX'S,BACK IN THE DAY, BOTH WITH 440'S I LOVED THEM,THEY WOULD RUN!!!!!!!
68 not a 70 and a 440 wasn’t available on a roadrunner in 68. It should be a 383.
That was a 383
10 4
Right
@Wes 76 . . . but they stayed in a Holiday Inn !
Right, the quickest way to tell it was a 1st year RR, 68? The round side-marker lights. All rectangle 69+ all Mopar models thereafter.
Frank is *SO* cheap. Makes me sick
I agree with you there. He won't pay up for things like Mike will. If Mike was interested in it he would have gave them alot more for it.
He made $2500 just taking it from one place to another. Definitely ripped him off
@@plymouthduster2252 how do you think people stay in business?
@@plymouthduster2252 Just so you know Mike Wolfe is a legendary motorcycle collector, and has a collection of motorcycles that makes Jay Leno look like a kid in the sandbox. Frank Fritz, well, he collects toys and board games, and he currently had a stroke and became paralyzed and cannot walk anymore or speak very little, and him and Mike had a falling apart with each other.
Restricter plate. It's a carburetor adapter . Lol
I would never want to deal with Frank!
Fair deal all around. Seller made a profit from his $600 purchase price, Frank made a profit to make it worth his effort, and the car ended up in a human's hands as opposed to rotting away outside.
Frank has 💩 problems
Makes me sick that the owner let a 1970 Road Runner go for $3k after frank offered $3500 then later offered $2500.
Even as the car sits, it was worth the $8k that the owner wanted for the car.
I really feel like the owner got ripped off.
Funniest thing though is the fact they kept calling it a '70, when it's actually a '68, the first year of the Road Runner.
And another odd thing is it’s a hardtop with the chrome panel on the trunk most were post cars
should have put it in the barn 10 years ago.
Stupid. Never sell or deal with flippers. Sell directly to the buyers that want your stuff even with eBay's fees he would have made a lot more on the sale.
Stick to video games son. Let the real world pass without you glistening editorials
I have a new challenger but definitely getting me a old school to restore and project it's time
This is why I never deal with Frank or let him in my place
Why? What did he do wrong?
That car as it sits is worth $20k they ripped off those people. I was sad to see it sold for nothing.
Car is worth at most 2000 spend 40-50 thousand might be worth 2000
@JRG when's the last time you restored I rebuilt a 440 about 30 years ago and had better than 20 grand in the engine
You never pay full price for anything used bud 🤣😂
It’s a Plymouth Roadrunner not a Prius
@@deanhoats7897 🤦♂️
First he offered 3500 then lowered it to 2500 and then acted like he was compromising on 3000, nice negotiating skills.
Seller shouldve stuck at 3500.
That was Frank's original purchase price..Frank lowballs!!
I hate that they down play the car, “ oh it’s not a Charger but still a 60’s muscle car!” The Charger is not better than it’s cousin, the roadrunner! Real Mopar guys understand this! I have a 68 Charger and have thought of trading it for a roadrunner!
That is a 68. ..68 was the only year to have panel..69 they deleted the panel and 70 was totally different trunk..the black and white bird on the door is a dead give away with round side marker lights
Its amazing on how much the public knows about the car more then the pickers by the comments made. Nice job!
Learning the intricate details of each individual car and any car in general requires definite knowledge and constant study, as well as experience and care. When you are a flipper, you have none of this, because you don't care. You put the "hamburger" on the grill (the car) and then flip one price to sucker the seller, than flip another price to sucker the buyer, then you get paid and do it all over again with another car.
3k?!?! That's robbery!
the engine alone is wrong, and probably needs swapping out. it's not running.
@@dwightstjohn6927 A 68 road runner in that shape is well over 3 grand
The owner didn't have to sell it.
His son didn't have to buy it.
The owner didn't have to sell it.
Frank didn't have to buy it.
The world keeps turning.
I couldn't rip the seller off like that, it shows Franks true colors.
Yeah he's in business you need to show a profit not break even. Besides there's no telling what all is wrong with the car
@@bobdoughnut1585 I get that but he still ripped him off
Willing buyer willing seller
@@NigelHeads Willing seller but not willing to be ripped off, just desparate for the money so had to give in to being ripped off by Frank.
At least he rescued a classic beast !
It's a 68, where did y'all get your car education?
Eric Trump, daddy Mommy said come home Yes, that is one difference between the ‘68 & ‘69. The ‘69 had the chrome on the trunk between the taillights, but the 1970 was a completely different design. Good Day to You!
Eric Trump, daddy Mommy said come home Oh ok maybe that was a trim package option? I bought a ‘68 RR in 1979 for $75.00. Here in N.E. Ohio it was a rust bucket to say the least, but the 383/4 speed was still pretty strong. The trunk was rusted out so bad that when I smoked the rear tires or ran the engine hard, the interior would fill up with blue or white smoke. Then get home after an evening of hot rodding around add oil to the engine & have it ready for the next round. Hearing different stories from folks that owned these types of cars never gets old. Good Day to You!
You are right it's a 68 my dad had a 68 GTX I can tell by the marker lights.
Forrest Stinnett the 68 Plymouth’s has round marker lights and they changed to rectangle in 69 and 1970 was a complete body change altogether. No wonder frank doesn’t do well with older muscle cars, he doesn’t know if he’s looking at a mustang or gremlin, lol
You are exactly right my friend "68"
Someone just got "Beep Beeped".......just saying......the Coyote is smiling....
At 4:17 "nobodybeabletoenjoyitanymore" 😂
I counted like 10 errors in the first 60 seconds. All this shows is how little these guys know about cars. And if you need to make a phone call to find out if a 68 road runner in that condition is worth 5k, you’re a clown. It’s one of the most iconic cars of all time. It’s not like some super fringe car that you’d have to be an expert to know is valuable. Anybody who’s even a passive car enthusiast knows this car is big money in any condition
They had know idea what they were looking at 😂 highway robbery!
Abram Mitchener no
The thing couldnt even get on the highway unless it was on the back of a flatbed tow truck also the seller didnt have to accept the offer. The car sat for 10 years. He clearly wasnt going to do anything with it.
I'd love to have an old Road Runner like that.
I was reading the comments. It is a 68,that's pretty obvious. And it's true the only engine options were 383,426 HEMI.
But someone has changed the engine. Definitely a 440.
I think the 68 to 70 Roadrunners are the absolute best muscle cars ever put out. They're way cooler than any Charger in my opinion.
It's the same body style
You forgot about the best Plymouth muscle ever. 70-73 'cuda
So Frank sells it to his FRIEND and makes 2,500 off of him. Gee, what a FRIEND Frank is.
so what about all the traveling and searching FRANK does, should he work for free? Do you work for free? I can't believe the stupid comments I'm seeing on this video. Clueless idiots who have no idea what it takes to run a successful business. His buddy will restore (once restored it will be worth a lot more than $6500) and he can then keep it or sell it for a nice profit.
@HB can't believe the rude comments made by perfect strangers that have to call people idiot's and stupid. Safe behind there keyboard of course. I guess it makes them feel smart and above other people. It's a shame there anger issues keep them from having a normal conversation. What a jerk.
@@guitarsrcool4922 your comment was a big fail buddy, but go ahead and try to drift this off topic because you have nothing else to defend your dumb comment.
They know a lot of things about a lot of things, obviously classic mopars are definitely not one of them!!!
That guy is another Rick from Pawn Stars.
3k. It’s a 8k car easy.
if it was RUNNING.
That’s an $8000 car if you want to overpay. Everything on eBay and craigslist are bunch of dreamers trying to get more money than those cars are worth. They always cost more to restore than you can sell them for. Unless of course you can do 90% of the work yourself. Then you may come out on top.
and you need a shop, and no idiots around. you would have to GIVE d)ad this car for him to PUT EIGHT GRAND into the uphostelry and paint, work he doesn't do on a top level, but we've known the guys for decades, THEN dad would do the complete drivetrain, engine, transmission, joints and suspension (which, after eighty years he's pretty good at( Now you need a full year of restoration attention, a full shop space dedicated to keeping the car out of the weather, unlike these clowns. you'd then probably have a twenty thousand dollar car that you put.................twenty grand into, maybe more.
I bet frank got $12,000 at least out of it after power washing the moss off it
@@getchasome6230 the guy he was selling it to offered $6500.
I Love the mopar
If it sat another 20 years, may be worth 5X more
Even 8k is a steal. 3500 offer is hilarious. That car was probably worth 15 how it’s sat. If he wanted to sell that car for 8k, I’d take 3 of them right now
Frank should have just gave the lead to his "Buddy" in a Pay it Forward Moment for future consideration ..
But no , he had to ultimately shaft two people ..
So all the, traveling, and searching frank does around the country is worth nothing? Wow. His buddy will be fine he'll make his cut when he restores and sells. It's called BUSINESS.
@@HBSup the time traveling and searching is a choice, you don;t get compensated for that. that is your decision to travel to find deals, not anyone else's. the items live happy where they are, without someone hunting them down like a hitman just to make a $10 profit.
@@MrWolfSnack well you're wrong he did get compensated and he always does. Without him bringing the item his buddy has nothing to restore.
Def not a 70
That roadrunner is worth 15 to 20 thousand, the owner just got
ripped off.
That was a deal at 8k lol
Quick way to tell what year on a Mopar - those circular lights on the fenders/quarters = 1968. In 1969 they were rectangular but were just reflectors not lights. In 1970 they were rectangular and were lights. Also, I believe that the push button on the outside door handles in 1968 were black. 1969-70 they were chrome.
Yep the 70 was a different animal all together,then totally different again in 71
Am i the only one who recognized music from The Sims 3 in the clip?
You have to watch the two slick brothers at work !! Teaming up you have to love the Con Lol and brian is a friend he just got bent over !! You got live the slick brothers .I would put two belts around my pants if those two were around me !! LOL
My dad had a 70 plum crazy purple 440+6
Dude got totally ripped off. 3k I’d buy every single one they can find. I can’t believe the guy paid 600 for it. This is making me cry. Those are 15k cars in that condition all day long
Wish I could go back too 1987 and told my dad too buy this mint condition 1969 rt charger 440 4 speed for 1400. It would be$ 60,000 or more today
Completely ripped that guy off. He made $2500 just taking it from one place to another
68 and 383 car. But still he bought it cheap
I'd rather have the 383 anyway
Frank got it at a good price but he still had to move it , I get $2.50 mile 1 way , $ 3.00 in winter , plus $50.00 to load , and he might have to pay back tax or bring the plates up to date if he can't get a antique plate , depending on the state , that adds up .
Liquid sunshine! :)
Right, he does that with a lot of stuff
I want that road runner so bad
That guy got ripped off but its his fault for not putting the effort in getting the most out of it.
you would rather see the car rot into nothing?
Wow those deals are hard to find
Anyone else pick up the block being blue?? Not a 68-71 motor, 72 and up the blocks were blue
Car classic 👍
Nice score
I love mopar
$3000 is better than a pile of rust.
I’d like to see the car after the restoration.
Frank is the Man....and i mean THE. FKN. MAN. period.
Id take a roadrunner over anything.. Dream car..
Lol that was ah 10k car as it sits.
That guy didn’t know what he had.
That was a steal..
Cool
5k is great!
Best buy I've seen. All of y'all made out like bandits.
😎
440 wasn't most powerful that year. I had one.
Roadrunner great except I like the 426 hemi
Really dude that’s a 68 roadrunner it’s worth more than those people think
68 all day long my dad had a 68 GTX look at the marker lights.
Small and round, 69 rectangular. I had one B 5 blue too.
Wow, 3k is a great price for that car.
Probably no title on that car. That's why they don't know the correct year. Also would explain the price offer drop.
15k all day
It never rains in southern California it pours
if the guy he called offered 6500 with such a close up look .. he could have gotten at least 6k by posting to craigslist etc
So franks buddy is a real mopar guy and couldn't tell him it's a '68, should have a 383 if the vin is RM23H8 etc while he had him on the phone?
Frank, you scored on that Mopar.
Yeah, $3000 is pretty low for the car but it is better to not let it sit there and rot.
Take the Road Runner home for sure
Ya Frank has to stay away from comments about Cars. Almost always is wrong on knowing ANYTHING About car knowledge
STOP THIEF!!!
Oh come on, this guy gave his car for free. Frank would have gave easily 4.850 $ for him
Mopar baby
I think that is a 440 look at the front of the Engine where the square part is that had the serial number stamped into it.They didn't have that on a 383
Its a 68 Roadrunner. Also the 426 Hemi put out more horse power!
Still has the paint on the block yeah buddy
Frank gets very excited
This was definitely an old video, what’s with the flip phone? Btw a 68 and not 70!
He stole that car frank should be burn for this
Oh boy. To bad these guys know zero about Mopars. It’s a 68 1/2 Road Runner! A mid year addition was the hard top. Also, if it’s a 440 , that mill wasn’t offered until 69 in RR . Do some research boys before you air these programs… it’s your job! At least it has a “ restrictor plate! Lol. I owned a 681/2 383 RR loved it.
Nice 68
I've never hated Frank more than I do right now.
Offered $3500, then turned around and dropped it to $2500?!? I would have hung up on him!!!
What? Road Runner came out in '68, this one is a '68. Road Runner is obviously cooler than the Charger. Plymouth > Dodge. And 440s before 1970 were orange so it does have an engine swapped in.
Douchie move
