- I took a road trip to Southern California to visit a collector trying to buy an old gas pump and misc gas station related antiques. The real treasure was a 1941 Willys all steel coupe covered up in the! I really enjoy the treasure hunt !! More content coming soon!
Enjoy,
Gas Pump Rob
1937/1941 Willys Coupe pick ups are the best👍🏼
Thank you for watching and commenting!!
My heart drop when I saw the all steel Willys omg that's a Gold mine by it's self if that's all there was with out all the other good stuff. It would be a sin to cut that car up. Even thought I would want to chop the top. I seen one with a chop top with skirts with baby moon wheels. It was the coolest looking car I have seen in a long time. Wishing I took a picture of it only because I have never seen one since. I always seen them hopped up like a quarter mile car.. Thanks for taking us along👍🏽
I tried to buy the Willys . I can picture it as a gasser . I understand what you are saying about cutting it up but wouldn’t that be fun to modify?
This collection is great! I had to watch it twice to see all of the cans. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Brian!! If you like this collection please follow along because I will bring you another collection tour in a week or so! Had a great time shooting four different videos last weekend!!! Petro , Vintage Gas Station, Old Cars , and collections based on my subscriber’s requests .
I love the 1941 Willy's car in in great condition!! Someday I'll get a air meter and I'll put it in my upcoming new museum when i get it opened up. Thanks for taking us along and showing this wonderful collection!!!
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting. I agree an air meter for your display would be great! He would not sell me the one that appeared in the video. I tried!!
wow....WILLYS!!!!!! LOVE IT
Oh wow, very cool!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! I really enjoyed looking around at stuff there. It would be fun buy and hop up that Willys but it was not for sale.
That was a lot of fun Rob !
Thanks Tom, Glad you enjoyed the backyard tour today. Hopefully we will get together at that classic car field of dreams location soon . The mud is probably worse there now that two weeks ago.
Another great video. Looked like a fun place and interesting person to meet. I have that exact gargoyle pole sign im my collection. Rusty with dents and displays awesome. Cant wait for more videos.
Thanks Chris! I also like rustic looking signs.
Hi rob great place you got some killer items i love the lubester . Cheers mate🇦🇺
Hello Peter, I asked about buying that lubester because I thought the same about as you did. Thank you for watching another one of my videos! Cheers from Southern California Mate 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Looks like a fun visit

What a great collection thank you for sharing with us. That Willys is amazing!
Thanks !!! I really enjoyed myself there. So much to look at!
THANKS A LOT
You're welcome!
Thanks Mate
You're welcome!
Rob, good to see you again! I love this video. I watched your previous video of the GMC COE. What a neat truck. I remember several seasons ago on American Pickers they bought a green truck like that. Happy New Year!
Hello Rodney, Thank you!!!! Interesting you mentioned a green COE from Arizona! When I purchased this red one I could have also bought a green one the same Year model. This was a while back. Both of them were on the same property. The green COE had terrible rust on the running boards and cab corners so I decided to not buy it. Happy New Year to you as well!
Rumor has it that a sign collection was brought to Arizona from the midwest back in the eighties or so.
Interesting! In the eighties the signs were so much more affordable.
Willey was very nice how many of those have been used for street does fantastic footage
Many have been raced and modified over the years! Great body style!
I have old oil cans too,and there are tips I can give you on old oil can , my can that I first placed in my windows ,,, well they fade In the paint , my first cans lost there colors , so if you don’t care about the color then,et them stay inthe window ,,, they will revert to metal with no paint , ok thanks BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace grace amen 🙏
Thank you for the tip on preventing can paint fade. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. Yes praise Jesus 🙏
Hello. Im looking for the small front access doors for a Tokheim 36b pump. They look stainless, but might just be pot metal. The front nameplates are readily available, but I havent had any luck finding access doors. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Hello, Try contacting Gas Pump Heaven (402) 592-1710 They sell them and they fit well. They are stainless.
Wow! Rob you sure pump out the info on those gas pumps! My wife is in a fake laugh right now that my pun onwards. Oh no my wife's getting in on the act now. She wants to know if you're pumping out leaded or unleaded. All seriousness in the first three minutes I learn more about gas ⛽ pumps then anywhere else. Also I guess your collector friend might of gave his first wife the Willies. 1937 that is. That's pretty nice collection the old boy had. That will ease were screaming out flathead Ford V8! I just put my 59 Chevy up on short video a little while ago today. You know I always wanted to put out a simulated gas station from the 1950s. I think it would go nice with my cars and trucks. You had everything on this episode. A little bit of scenery. A minivan shop into a camper trailer. Now where else would I see that? A Willy's and DeSoto wall art. I'll check with Joe I think he has the hood ornament that he is looking for. Gas pumps oil cans gas cans all kinds of things. Now do I get gold stars paying attention? Haha😂😂. If I really pay attention then I get a shell crest!! You know there might be something there on that idea. Hey on that 59 I'll do a video showing a dumping a load out of the back of the truck probably this summer. Good see you back on TH-cam horse keep cranking out those videos!
Ok please tell your wife you deserve a A plus for paying attention without missing anything in my video!!!! Also you get another A in creative writing skills! Haha My channel would not be what it is without your thorough comments! I wonder how many other viewers read the comments and are surprised at how in depth yours are??? You really pump out the words with high octane! Flathead V-8 yes!!!! 👍💪💪💪 Backyard gas station Yes!!!! 👍👍👍⛽️⛽️ Your comment on his first wife getting the 37 Willys made me laugh 😂 . You were definitely listening to this man tell his story! Yes this video had a great mix of content to hopefully please the majority of viewers!!! Thank you for commenting and supporting my channel. Rob
They need to come to the antique store in Kraemer junction FourCorners California and see if they have the parts to that first pump , they are the top knowing in pumps and antiques , and they have 100 s of thousands of top notch collectibles and antiques and military , it above price Knut of course they thing it’s far , But if your buying there ,,,you better bring some buckets 🪣 of money, lolololll good people I love them , I’m not in the Antique business ,,,so , thanks buddy I still looking for my first 55 Chevy roller car to build if you find an inexpensive one ☝️ thanks buddy BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace amen 🙏
I have sold gas pumps to Tinker and Dennis at Kramer Junction in the past. Great guys and their collection is amazing!
I will keep you in mind if I find a 55 Chevrolet roller!! Thanks my friend
Hi Rob On your travels around the wrecking yards if you come across any Buick parts Like I am trying to find a pair of 1949 Buick convertible doors, or any 1949 General Motors convertibles as all the doors are the same or if you know any that can help me, As i said i live in Australia Thanks Barry
Hello Barry, Yes I will definitely try to remember this , and let you know if I find any. Rob
2:15 Hi Rob After watching your video on Turners auto salvage and after sending email after email and trying to phone them and told the phone number is not contacted as I live in Australia which makes it a bit hard to buy parts if I don’t get a reply
Hello Barry, That is strange. This makes me wonder if they are still in business? It seems like even a email response like we do not ship overseas would be appropriate. If I hear anything about them being open or closed I will let you know.
Can't even imagine what that stash is worth.
Probably worth small fortune!!
Hi if there is any chance you could give me details of the hard in amirrilo for the Chevy cabs and the Ford can over fire truck
It’s two different locations that you are referring to I think. Let me think about this and try to figure it out.
I wonder if this man would ever consider selling his 41 willys car?
I asked him if he would sell it and his answer was no.
