Rob, I look out my front windows at Stock's Mill in Hillsdale, Michigan. How crazy you found one of "our" bags in California! The mill was started by a couple of our city founders in the late 1830's and was purchased by F.W. Stock in 1862. The Stock's became the most prominent family in Hillsdale and at one time the mill was the largest flour mill East of the Mississippi. They became famous for their Daisy Donut mix. Unfortunately after being purchased by larger corporations it was closed in the late 1990's. It sat vacant for quite a few years but is now the site of the Lucky Buck deer minerals company.

Hello Darin, Thank you for sharing this information about Stock’s Mill!!! Amazing!!! We found a mountain of various bags in this barn!! I have a few to decorate with now . I appreciate you watching and commenting. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing pick and a double clockface gas pump!
Thanks Jeff!!! Double the fun!!!
Great finds. Lots of great collectables.
Thanks for watching!!! We enjoyed getting dirty uncovering buried treasure.
Amazing Rob! Thanks for taking us along!
Thanks Brian! I am glad you enjoyed the video. Rob
Seaside Oil Company - The company was founded early in 1898 in San Francisco. The two primary shareholders were John J. Cook of that city, who became president, and Joseph Musgrove of Santa Barbara. The other directors, each with five shares apiece, were all from Summerland.
In 1966, Phillips Petroleum bought Seaside.
Thank you very much for this valuable information of the history of Seaside. I really enjoy learning about the history of oil companies. I remember seeing a house on the hill in Summerland covered with Seaside signs in the early nineties. Many people tried to buy these signs but the owner wouldn’t sell any of them. Later on all the signs were removed from the house and I heard a collector was able to buy all of them.
What a great video😊
Some great barn finds😮
Thank you rob😊
Thank you for watching! I am glad you enjoyed the barn hunt with us!
What an amazing nostalgic barn. I would be going crazy in there with all the cool stuff. I bet you really enjoyed it. Thanks for the video
Thanks Chris! We really enjoyed ourselves rummaging through the barn! Thank you for watching and commenting. Rob
Well thanks for the nice compliment!!! We really had a fantastic day digging through this California barn together working as a team. What year range are the GMC trucks ?
That’s an awesome find ! Congrats love seeing you find stuff on you hunts and travels
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos and follow me on the adventures. Take care , Rob
That is an awesome fire truck. I'd say it's from the mid 1930s, very well preserved. The gas pump is very cool!! This is one of the best things about the hobby, a great way to fill your excitement and explore the open road finding treasures of the past.
This, by far, is one of your best videos!!! I'm looking forward to seeing more videos and fantastic content.
Thanks my friend!!! I really like the fire truck 🚒 myself!!! It would be fun to pull out of the barn ! Perfect parade truck!
Incredible find Rob, congrats.
Thanks Tom!!! Opportunities like this do not come up often. We had a fantastic day together barn hunting!
Hi rob fantastic score so much great stuff thanks for the video
Cheers mate🇦🇺
Thank you Peter for the continued support and interest over the years. Your friend in 🇺🇸🙌🙌
Weird, we had some of those old trucks and jeeps on our farm back in the 80's and got rid of them... never thought of them as antiques, just thought of them as junk at the time. Now they're pretty much pushing antique.
Yes you are very correct in what you said. Many were junked in the past. The GMC trucks in this video are extremely heavy duty 1.5 to 2 tons each. Not everyone can collect these but I really appreciate them as part of our working heritage in America 🇺🇸
Rob, what neat barn finds you all came across. I have never seen a double clock gas pump - what year does that date from? The scenery around the barn is beautiful and green! Enjoyed this video as usual.
Thanks Rodney, These are definitely rare pumps . These were manufactured by the Bennett pump company from 1929- 1935 according to the literature, I have on it. I agree the scenery was beautiful there!! Thanks for visiting today. Rob
California pickers starring........
I'm saying the guy on American pickers may want to team up with you once in a while so you don't compete with him.
SO WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT YOU DID A GREAT JOB. THIS FLOAT SMOOTHLY AND I REALLY LIKED SEEING THAT NATIONAL BEARING SIGN. I KNOW SOME GUYS THERE. I BET YOU THEY WOULD LIKE THAT sign. By the way they have a great machine shop actually a couple of them within their business 👍👍👍
Thank you my friend for watching and commenting!!!
@@gaspumprob now that would be interesting plot twist. If you were California picker, where did the state of California considered you a migrant worker? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Haha I don’t know were I fit in as far as California but I must say California would miss my tax dollars if I ever left like many other business owners are doing!
@@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983
I am thinking both GMC trucks in this video are 1946 . What are your thoughts about them?
@@gaspumprob I would agree with you..
Cool stuff
Thanks Art!!! I remember you watching and commenting in the past . I am glad you enjoyed seeing the stuff we uncovered. Gas Pump Rob
Yes this video proves that!!!
Wow they are still out there!
Thanks Jeff! That was what I was thinking. I often wonder what else is out there hiding in barns across America???
Nice stuff. Gas pumps would be great to restore.
Thank you !!! I appreciate you watching and commenting today. Gas Pump Rob
Can anyone identify the year of the two GMC trucks in this barn? Thanks in advance
1947
I have a hastings save oil and gas cardboard paper banner from the 30’s or 40’s its about 6 feet long any idea what it would be worth
Neat - does the banner have any Hasting’s graphics on it if just advertising letters?
great pump and cans
Thank you !
