      Yes the entire family was great to work with and they were happy knowing this stuff was going to get recirculated and used!

    A friend of mine had relatives who were closing down an old wrecking yard. He called, we went and looked, and I was
    overwhelmed, and nearly had a heart attack when they said the word "free". So I contacted the local high school for
    some Saturday workers and am so glad I did. We filled a friend's 26 ft box truck, three heavy duty pick up trucks with
    16 and 24 foot trailers. I got a total of seven hemi engines from 1954 up to 1968. Six Buick 'nailhead' engines, 4 big
    block Chevys, two 427s and one 396 and one 454. I also got over a thousand parts including an old front engine
    dragster frame which got reconditioned and lived on the local drag strip for eight years. This was the biggest car parts
    haul I had ever done, but sure does not compare to the value of what you came across.

    Matt - you found the Oak Island treasure!!! I’ll be waiting to see Mike unpack and show the other goodies at the warehouse. I would have enjoyed talking to the old timer about his car projects. What a nice couple!!

      ​@@rickallen6378 The most expensive part of those type of hoards are the time it takes to research/clean/box/label what you have, since you didn't collect it. This is already done! Not to mention the unobtainium they kept unearthing. Priceless.... I REALLY wanna know what he got it for.

  • @380.motorsports
    @380.motorsports 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have seen collections like this end up sold to a museum before and while I enjoy visiting museums, I’m way more excited to know that you got this collection and it will be put to use in car builds in the future that really get used and not just hanging on a wall. Some will I’m sure but still this is a huge recirculating of parts that were made to go into actual use. Pretty exciting stuff.

  • @aggieduke1

    I believe all those parts have definitely gone to the right home.
    I'm sure they'll find their way onto many projects, not just stuck, out of
    sight, in one man's collection; but, kudos to that man, for preserving all that
    stuff for so long. That's a win, all round.

I look forward to sharing this video with him I’m very confident that he knows the guy you purchased the ford parts from. Good luck on everything!
