I'm only two videos in, and I've decided you are one of the coolest people on the planet. The life you have put together is truly inspirational. I need to work harder.
This is the quintessential definition of truly great American Nostalgia--our culture rocks be it from the 20th, 19th, 18th Century! God Bless & Happy Holidays to All.
love, love this....the best times I remember as a young kid in the 70's in Chicago, was my friends and I building car model kits, talking about girls, and wrenching on our cars. I love your set up. And that '57, wow. I'm currently working on a '23 Ford hot rod, and a 1941 chevy special deluxe rodding it. thanks for sharing your house..Love it.
I love these videos. Such an intriguing man. Goes to show what hard work and building in demand skills like being a machinist can still do for you in 2018. Kids nowadays need to learn to work with there hands. Dragon land is my dream Land. I love every part of it.
Mr. Dragonman, you are a motivation and an inspiration to many people. I I particularly appreciate your apparant belief in the principle that separates America from the rest of the world, that a person can be trusted to use their freedom responsibly. I also really appreciate you as an antique collector and what I believe distinguishes you from the rest is that not only do you restore the aesthetic aspect of the item, you actually restore it to its working condition. ("gully functional and operational"). Knowing you only from your videos and being a Colorado resident, I imagine your restorations are at least as effective and reliable as they originally were. You, sir, do not appear to do anything halfway. Anyway, I've yet to make it up there to Dragon land., as I rarely leave my own, but it's on my list. Thank you and may you continue to have all the best, S .
Dragon man you are truly an amazing man . You deserve every thing you have. You worked hard all your life. I enjoy your videos showing your collectables. Your military collection is amazing. Keep up the videos
Dragon man iv been watching you alot more since being locked up in the house.. I notice your love for the Chevy tri-5s.. And everything else lol. Anyway i know where there is a 57 Chevy complete but even better i know where the matching numbers motor is 283 built up good by a local engine builder in his 70s.. His reputation is hugh. I know it has hi compressions pistons Carrillo rods i think its got two 4barrles to with 0 miles an puts out 400hp. If your interested you could own the engine for a project or swap or you could by the 57 (needs alot of work but mostly all there) and engine cheap. Kind of a weird comment but fig if throw it out there since you seem to be serious car guy who wouldnt put it to waste.. Ps love the springer i have one i bought recently il never let go..
I'm from Bay Shore Long Island, New York. Sunrise Hyw. I was born in the sixties. I had a Newsday Paper Route. A Schwinn bicycle with the baskets your talking about. I got my Working Papers at age 11 and delivered Newspapers till 15. Too Cool.
Love your team Dragon Man.. My son works for the City maintaining all trucks cars, firetrucks, and all city vehicles .. when you need a service mechanic in thew making he is willing to work for you maintaining all your vehicles.. Love you guys..
Kickass he's driving his 57 with snow on the ground. Alot of guys would cry about that. I find it kickass lol I in fact love driving my 1948 Ford F1 pickup during the winter. Keep up the great work! Merry Christmas!
I like this guy and I'm really not trying to be a dick. He makes me feel kinda bad about myself because he's not that smart at all and he's obviously a multi-millionaire. Goes to show that hard work and dedication beats intelligence just about every time.
You're a breath of fresh air Dragon Man in this world of sad gits eveywhere these days, much respect. Im nuts about classic American cars and motorcycles too, I wanna leave New Zealand and come work for you asap,even if it's just mowing lawns and keeping the cars clean. Currently riding a 96 Softail custom evo and driving a 66 Chevy Belair 454 big block manual here in NZ. I was born in the wrong country. Keep up the awesome work.
Inwood to Valley Stream? Pennilusa Blvd? Wow, my old stomping grounds. Guy from Long Island moves to Colorado, opens a compound with gun store, shooting ranges and motorcross track! Who da thought? My bucket list is to RV out west and we are stopping by!
Egg Cream was created on the Grand Concourse in a Jewish Candy Shop in 1894 however some would allege the Egg Cream was allegedly created in the early 1900s by a Jewish candy shop owner, Louis Auster, who came to America and opened a candy store in Brooklyn, New York. NOT CORRECT was in the Bronx first..... On Long Island in Jericho NY in 1903
D man is awesome . Another hundred or so yrs, all this items will double triple in value. And 509yrs later, priceless. Even in the current year , dragon man wants to auction this, he'd be a millionaire several times over. A good idea is to keep an inventory of all items and ask fans to monetize it, not for sale, just to gauge the value of each item in the market.
When he's telling his story it sounds like me when i was young. I had 3 news paper route. Did all I could to make and save money. Then I got older 22 years old fell in love. Started having kids. 7 kids. 5girls 2 boys. There goes the money. End of story.
That would be cool if mel had a fully restored Huey UH1 Mike gunship shorter version of the huey and get a 6ton old army dump truck and sheeps foot to compact the dirt in 2ft lifts and build your new building pad but great video thank you greatly appreciated
Nice house - Can I rent a room?!!! I have many of the same memories as you. Diners, egg creams, candy stores. I lived in Queens NY, nor far from Valley Stream. My aunt and family lived there.
Damn, dude! You are too friggin cool! Obviously, you knew what you wanted and worthy to own and your home, car, and shop, prove it! The only gripe is the fact you don't cook in your home. I'm Sicilian and my father had a kitchen we built that resembles one a famous chef would have. In fact, they had two standup freezers in the garage. One had custom cut grain-fed beef and the second had Pork and Poultry. We had a Jen-Air gas stove and oven with all the attachments they offer. In other words, if hungry, all you had to do is grab and thaw a rib-eye steak and throw it on the grill attachment and within a couple minutes, wah-la! The old man cooked Italian food like a pro and we always ate like kings! But, to each they own. I am impressed, dude!
You know homie is sitting on a giant pile of money because he said “I eat out every morning and every evening” and if it wasn’t already obvious enough. Biggest collector I’ve ever seen. Insane
This is the coolest man to have ever lived.
uncle Jimbo couldn’t agree more, imagine being his son. You’d have lots of shit to enjoy.
Agreed
Mmmmmm hmmmmm
How can you not love this guy?? Mad respect to dragon man,and hot brass and bullets!!

I'm only two videos in, and I've decided you are one of the coolest people on the planet. The life you have put together is truly inspirational. I need to work harder.
Mel is one of the funniest, sharpest people youll ever see, or meet. Hes a riot
I’d check out is museum if you haven’t already
Mel is living the American dream, well at least my dream!
That's one bizarre dream.

This dude's worth ethic, unlazyness, and memory is amazing.
Makes me so happy to see hard working people doing good
He's doin what he wants, when he wants, with whatever he wants to play with. Ya can't beat that.....HB&B----->👍
“Now that you’ve seen my museum let’s go see my house, also a museum.”
He's a lovable big kid. The greatest Uncle who has ever lived.
Dragon man, you are the 8th wonder of the world my man. If I can have 10% of the cool stuff you got I will be a happy man!
This is the quintessential definition of truly great American Nostalgia--our culture rocks be it from the 20th, 19th, 18th Century! God Bless & Happy Holidays to All.
U don’t wanna ring my door bell at night cause it’s gonna ring back hahaha

I love these videos. Such an intriguing man. Goes to show what hard work and building in demand skills like being a machinist can still do for you in 2018. Kids nowadays need to learn to work with there hands. Dragon land is my dream Land. I love every part of it.
i 100% plan on coming to Colorado soon i’d love to meet you guys!
Jeeesus dude... you've collected some serious amount of history in both your museum and your home! Insane!
I think it is safe to say: dragon man doesn't cook...
Duo Zhang that’s what the flamethrowers for
Duo Zhang does not live here the military museum is big barn in back
He probably grills everything outside.
You need a tv show
He had one on descovery, but his wife got killed while filming by a freak accident.
Dragon man is a 5 yr. Old with all the resources and proper affections to himself. Great man !!

God bless you dragon man. You are the man. Thank you.
Love it, absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing.
This guy has everything "But" power garage doors ;)-
I like this guy and I'm really not trying to be a dick. He makes me feel kinda bad about myself because he's not that smart at all and he's obviously a multi-millionaire. Goes to show that hard work and dedication beats intelligence just about every time.
There is no evidence to support the notion he isn't smart and there is plenty to say he is. BTW, you are a dick.
Living the dream, God bless that man!

If you were my father in law I would have spent more time with you than your daughter, no offence, she is beautiful, but you got alot of cool «toys»!
I was sitting here thinking the same thing. It is a good thing she likes to go shoot guns.
That's his girlfriend I think?
@@67goodoleboy67 it is his daughter for sure.
@@timbenracing That's not his daughter, dumbass.

You have truly been blessed in your life
Love your car collection dragonman...
I love an evo with a Springer upfront. Best ride in the world.
When he's telling his story it sounds like me when i was young. I had 3 news paper route. Did all I could to make and save money. Then I got older 22 years old fell in love. Started having kids. 7 kids. 5girls 2 boys. There goes the money. End of story.
What a collection.... :)))
I enjoyed this
Hard working man they don't make them like that no more.
I have a egg cream once a week.i am from Brooklyn.We have a Diner that still makes egg cream.
egg creammm YUK
That would be cool if mel had a fully restored Huey UH1 Mike gunship shorter version of the huey and get a 6ton old army dump truck and sheeps foot to compact the dirt in 2ft lifts and build your new building pad but great video thank you greatly appreciated
Nice house - Can I rent a room?!!! I have many of the same memories as you. Diners, egg creams, candy stores. I lived in Queens NY, nor far from Valley Stream. My aunt and family lived there.
You remind me of what my dads going to look like whenever he's older he loves firearms all firearms actually by the way love your videos man!
See these? They're very rare I have 3 million of them. OK next is this stove but I'm not sure what it does but boy its a beauty.

Haha love this guy, great collection too.
This is a badass man!!!
Dragon man, enlighten me what kind of work did u do to be able to afford this WONDERFUL hobby ??? Ur awesome Dragon man please keep it up.....
I've heard him say that he obviously makes quick cash from his museum so collecting stuff is no big deal..
But you need money to start a museum. I've always wondered how he made his money too because he's not super intelligent.
@@MrEazyE357 love the guy,but I'm starting to think he's just a front man...
Love the channel
Does dragon man have the original coke with original ingredients hint hint lol
I think Coke got rid of the coke in the 1920's. . . . . around prohibition era.
Lovely entertaining guy how can you not respect him? Quite humble to. Well done Mel
So whats your hobby?
Dragon man: ”i watch cable tv”
