I would have to say the diamond t truck just because of its rarity. I'm sorry you had to sell your Dodge pickup because deep down inside I think you are a sentimental person and that truck was with you in the beginning of your TH-cam adventure. I for one thoroughly enjoy watching all your videos. Do you ever get Ford edges on your lots? I never see them in your videos but I have one and I absolutely love it. Just curious. Keep up the excellent work Silas
The never ending (it seems) supply of rusty gold that you continue to come up with is just mind blowing to me! My cousin was in the scrap iron buying business 50 years ago in Arkansas, and he told me he gave up because every farm he went to had a mountain of scrap but the old farmers would never sell any of it. The old timers of that era were depression survivors, and were always going to be prepared to make do, fix up, whatever they had that they didn't have spend money on something.
That's the thing all them guys are dieing off and much of the stuff is going to scrap anymore and that's what sucks because once it's gone it's gone forever and anyone with a old antique that breaks or is missing a part will not be able to find it after all this stuff is gone we are the last soon you not going to find old cars or anything once it's gone
About the jar of hardware, the ones with two holes one on each end are called Footman loops and were/are used on early WW2 jeeps for lashing down the front windshield, the tools, shovel and axe on the side , I think also to lash down the jerry cans & to help tie down the soft tops etc, they used the flat cotton web straps with buckles etc look them up, as far as the other pieces in there I didn't get a good look but possibly more jeep hardware. Enjoy, love the videos, wish I lived closer I'd definitely love to help on those cleanup jobs. Best to all!
@@eddiefoster5138 think you are right. I had a ',46 Willy's 2cj5a and it had those type straps to hold down the windshield firmly to the hood when windshield was flipped forward/gown.
Hey Silas, back in the 50's that green "parts bin" was used to sell nails, they were sold by the pound, there was a three pronged small hand rake and you raked the nails out into the pan that was set on the scale to weigh them, went with my dad many times to buy nails at the hardware store. I like the auctions, I love looking at the "old" stuff. Thanks for taking us with you.
35-36 Plymouth coupe is sweet. "ship" hood ornament is called a mayflower. Name of the ship that the pilgrims sailed to Plymouth MA. Early Diamond T pickup very cool too. Love, Dubs
45:44 not sure what they are called, but my town used them around tree's when i was younger, loved the way they looked, they ended up getting rid of them because all it did was collect ciggy buts and was a pita to clean. miss the look tho
Buying old junk is the best fun i know of, try not to worry, you will sell it all on & enjoy doing it ! ( i made this comment at the start of the vid, you sure did enjoy yourself ! )
@@boogerhooks not for saddles since there are screw holes. Leather work on saddles will have steel rivits so so sharp edges on either side of attach points
That is like walking around my Grandparents farm auction in Nebraska after my Grandpa died and the farm was sold thirty six years ago I always enjoy your video's
That black thing that you seen inside the building where the signs were. It was a motorcycle or tractor etc, hydrolic lift. They come in handy when you have small machines or even a motorcycle. That way you can sit down and work on your stuff & be lazy. 😂
New backyard looks great for your kids. The Hudson steering wheels with emblems look fantastic. Longer video was great viewing, but I must say I miss the somewhat shorter bi-weekly vids. Good stuff, fun watching. Enjoyed it.
I believe the item in the shed is a weeder. You drag it along the weed and it pulls it out. The other parts involve a string which is hooked through the other parts which is used to release the pulled weed.
The black horned rollers and the black handle @1.05:50 the rollers are for a roll up awning Had then on a house built in 1937 the little black handles are the 3/16th rope awning tie offs.
Silas - all the "Smalls" are Brilliant and the Iron Rails as well ! Congrats on the Diamond T - what a Classic Car ! You sold most of the Stuff - made Your Money back and still have some very Cool Stuff left and some Keepers as well - it was a very Fantastic Auction - soooo Exciting and of Cause the Famous Saying: "I will not BUY very much" - ha-ha ! No - really - You done sooooo very Well indeed ! Love Auctions ! Great Video and many Cheers from Australia !
Dear Mr. Silas 👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! Congratulations 🎉 for purchasing a lot of cool and valuable stuff. Thanks a lot for marking explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health in particular.
At 2:13 is a walk behind tiller. It was yellow in color and was next to the minature tracked machine. The yellow tiller was made by Graham Paige Corporation in about 1947. It was made in the Willow Run Factory after G-P bought the factory from Ford Moptor Co. The Graham brothers made trucks in the 1920's and cars in the 1930's (generally speaking). Immediately after WWII, Graham made the Frazer automobile in association with the Kaiser-Frazer Company. I noticed in the last frames of the video, that you bought the G-P tiller.
I believe that little dozer was a Struck. I think kitted out like that they run $7500. I think they were advertised in all the old magazine picture adds from Popular Mechanics to Organic Gardening in the late 1960s - the 1990s.
There was a lumber yard that I bought materials from that had ben like that that had nails in it. There were nails of all sizes in it. The big ones were on the bottom, and the little ones were top. They would get out and put them in a sack. I couldn't believe what some of that stuff was selling for. Some of it was junk and selling like it was restored. Stay safe, and God bless. ✝️Dan🇺🇲
I knew that the Diamond T pickup existed, but I had never seen one until today. What an incredible find, and I'm surprised it didn't sell for more. I hope it gets restored to its former glory. Thanks for making my day, Silas!
When you were going through that box of drawer pulls as you called them that one glass and Brass with the glass ball at the top is off the top of a lamp shade
Adrenaline rush everything went for pretty cheap. What a great auction! “Mine” sure bought a lot.😁 I always find the square battery jars but never the lids. Good stuff, Silas thanks for the video.
These type of auctions, you must feel like a kid in a candy shop. l would be. Then remembering where you stashed what you won is a feat all on it's own, really enjoy these videos, thanks.
that jar full of hardware looks like it might be boat related, with the cylinders if the turn for rope to ride on. If they came from the right type of old boat they could be worth something to a restorer.
I'll tell ya. I am a little jealous you got a Diamond T Truck for cheap. What a good bargain. If you want a daily driver antique. You couldn't do no worse.Ugh, you coulda used the money selling your truck to get it going. Ty for taking us along
Buying like people like me and you do is almost like an illness that is in curable. I have had a yard and bussiness and now semi retired because of injury and try to down size and stop buying but it's an addiction no different than a drug or alcohol addiction hoarders come in different shape n sizes. But we buy and sell so we're not horders but we have the gene and tendicay!! LOL
Hey bud I just subscribed to both your channels I really enjoy the things you get into I went back a few months and was watching one of your videos and you wacked the bed of a old Toyota truck what would you have sold that truck for if someone wanted it. I didn't know where else you ask you a question about something so....
Wow... That was a great auction. And you bought quite a bit of stuff. You should fix up a truck or something from your scrap yard to haul all your stuff bought at auctions. How much you spent, hmmm.... 7500 dollars? Just a guess. I didn't really count honestly. Thanks for your nice and long video, Silas. Always enjoy it.😎👍
Nice score on the Diamond T 80 is it a S or D? My dad worked as a mechanic for Diamond T in the early 60’s then for Diamond Reo after the merger in 67 or 68. He says before the merger he almost starved to death because there was no work for a mechanic and after the merger he still almost starved to death because he couldn’t stop working long enough to eat.
You make me wish I would have bought the 3 55gal drums of poverty caps that sold for a buck. Or all the piles and piles that sell for a buck or no value.
Which was your favorite item?
Always overwelmed after the first 5 minutes

The Diamond T, Plymouth, pedal cars and the toy trucks were my favorites, Silas 👍
All of it lol😊
That huge one man crosscut saw you passed up for 10 dollars 😮😢 these videos are hard to watch because I get junk drunk 🥴 😂
Silas good thing you stuck to your pre auction plan😆

"I probably won't be buying anything off the trailers..." LOL
I’m halfway through the video and it’s been nothing but bidding on trailer items.
I didn't expect them to be giving stuff away.

Yes !!!! aim so glad you got the diamond t ! A very rare truck

Famous last words " Not going to Buy Much "
😎
Like when I go to the auto swap meets
When he says that, it always more than ever! Lol
Also, who can blame him. Great stuff at great prices!
The stuff in the jar are footman loops that go on old jeeps from the 40s and early 50s

Brings back memories of going to auctions like this with my dad. He loved those boxes full of miscellaneous stuff for a dollar or two.
Thanks . Iam 82 and live in a old farm in Idaho by the snake river and love your videos May Jesua keep your family safe
35-36 Plymouth coupe is sweet. "ship" hood ornament is called a mayflower. Name of the ship that the pilgrims sailed to Plymouth MA. Early Diamond T pickup very cool too. Love, Dubs
I'm glad you were not going to buy much!! 🤣
I loved all those old walk behind machines….what ingenuity !👍🏼👍🏼

That 37 or 38 Diamond T(?) at 41:50 looks pretty good. 36s and 37s DTs had the best look for the Art Deco period in the late 30s.
Love the wrought iron "burial plot" railings! Beautiful ! Dubs

Contents of jar look like hardware for holding leather straps of a wooden chest
Or straps on a saddle

Salis the was an different kind of auctionthank you for sharing
My brother was at the auction they haul a few semi loads to Minnesota
That is like walking around my Grandparents farm auction in Nebraska after my Grandpa died and the farm was sold thirty six years ago I always enjoy your video's
That can of Cox Thimble Drome fuel takes me right back to my model airplane building childhood. That's a keeper!
I had the Cox dune buggy when I was a kid . Managed to get it started and running about three times - - then never ran again .
I liked the thread spool holder, makes a great socket organizer. Thanks for taking us along!

Great video, have to watch again, i likes that little single trac plow that you had a bigger one of
Had fun hanging with silas seen crazy d there excellent 😊😊
Congratulations on the Diamond T.

Can't just eat one potato chip lol excellent score silas cheers 🥂
Always excited to see another Video with brother Silas...
If you can find the Roy Cox Thimble Drome oil can and the little vintage race car & trailer, it can be upwards of 500 to $600.
Auctions always. Make me spend more than I intended

You got some really good stuff Silas. It's just too bad you didn't get the old Plymouth - that was a nice car to do something with.
Amazing stuff - great auction - Thanks

Those lead printing letters are called a California job case
Road grader tractor was my favorite 👍
At 59:11 is a top part off an old cigarette stand, usually had porcelain pieces. A lighter, match holder, ashtray.
Awesome. Thanks for the video.
i'm curious how you keep track of what you buy and where you put it.
I believe that little dozer was a Struck. I think kitted out like that they run $7500. I think they were advertised in all the old magazine picture adds from Popular Mechanics to Organic Gardening in the late 1960s - the 1990s.
That was pretty cool. I need to look up a video of someone running one

Right on looks good love the color great job
Now that was fun thanks 👍👍👍👍👍😊
How often do you return to pickup what you purchased only to find things missing or gone??
Awesome always thanks
Had fun watching you have fun buying up all that cool stuff! 👍💯
Many interesting finds.
I knew that the Diamond T pickup existed, but I had never seen one until today. What an incredible find, and I'm surprised it didn't sell for more. I hope it gets restored to its former glory. Thanks for making my day, Silas!
Nice deals!!
U should get in touch with just a few acres farm. He really likes international Harvester tractors
😮all the stuff you never needed till you saw it.
When you were going through that box of drawer pulls as you called them that one glass and Brass with the glass ball at the top is off the top of a lamp shade
Great finds
You gotta get that Diamond T going !
Engine was locked up tight, but I sold it already anyway!
Adrenaline rush everything went for pretty cheap. What a great auction! “Mine” sure bought a lot.😁 I always find the square battery jars but never the lids. Good stuff, Silas thanks for the video.
The only things I know I paid too much for in the business sense were the truck and the bolt bin, but I sold both of those for a small profit anyway.

That cab that fits the old Farmall H/M tractor's.
As usual, a great score, and another great video. Congrats! The Diamond T of course!
I love a good auction
After looking at your storm footage I wonder do you have a basement/storm shelter?
Love your videos
I think they are for harnesses
So much for avoiding auction fever, but I do like the Diamond T. You should have bought both Welderup would have bought both in Vegas.
Wow Mate What a Great Show . Thankyou
Yes that was cool Peace out
Do the familys or auction company do the sorting for those auctions ? What a job that was with all that stuff.
Usually a mix of both
Those Nash 600s, are actually early uni-body construction. Yeah, rusty ones do come apart when moved. ask me how I know! Dubs
the big hooks are for hanging horse harness
The items you don't know what are I think there for a bridal on a harness set for wagon or buggy
Very Nice Haul Silas
Get a good running truck put the diamond T body on it and drive it.
Good haul Silas
Well done Silas you got the good stuff. 😅
All of the stuff
My favorite item was a late 1800,s tricycle i saw

I think those straps in the jar were brackets to hold slings on military rifles . The other stuff in the jar I have no clue.
Ive had those parts In the baby food jar before. Might have been used for a shutter
