About Adventures Made From Scratch: I’m just a regular guy who likes to find adventure in day to day life. We may not be able to go travel the world, but there are plenty of opportunities at our door step. I do a mix of vintage car stuff, scrapyard stuff, nature hiking, and who knows what else?!? Come with me as I take you along for a ride in my world! My 2nd Channel: / @moreadventuresmadefro...
Growing up my entire life in a Chrysler family this video makes my day that you saved it!
That Beer can radiator reservoir is awesome 👍
Cool old Chrysler , hope the buyer enjoys it . Great video Silas
Wow, A car that someone brought in for scrap is going to Australia!! Good for you!!
Thanks for the adventure !! Maybe he's on australian time!!
I know it's frustrating but I'm proud of you that you sold it and went to a good home keep the good work up
I know its frustrating but I'm so happy that the beautiful Chrysler was saved
YAY i love knowing a classic makes it our way :)
I have a tire inflater I bought last year and it shuts off when inflated. Good to see the 60 Chrysler saved and going to a new home.
My wife and I do eBay on the side. We turned out 2 car garage in to our eBay shed. Many don't realize how consuming it is to have a eBay business. But it is just like any other kind of business.
Glad to see another video. Always wait patiently for a new one. I know you are super busy. CONGRATULATIONS on one year on your property. Land prices are through the roof, good timing on the purchase. Keep the videos coming, love watching them. Stay safe and GOD bless
Thanks for giving that car a second chance at life My Mother had a 1960 Chrysler New Yorker station wagon with a 413 engine I loved that car Wish i had it today
Silas glad to see you getting yourself an Ebay office/ warehouse.
Hope the new owner enjoys his car.
Great Silas. That would be cool having all that space. I always enjoy your adventures. Keep em coming. Thanks from Mesa Az.
Glad that you have a place to get organized! Plus once you get things setup you’ll have an efficient workspace to do eBay business on really cold winter days.
Fantastic you got car to start with minimal work. Glad someone was willing to take it on and save it!
Gjob lad you finally have your own space to get things done in winter time. Thanks for all the adventures you take us on. great video,keep up good job. Have a good evening with the family.
I know it takes a lot of time, but it's good to save the old cars.
Modern engine definitely takes away from some of the character of an old car, but it definitely gives it reliability.
When it comes to a Engine Running Car Crush, use an older Car Truck and isolate the interior wiring harness, lessen the risk of fire..
In Australia the American cars used to be required to have a huge "LEFT HAND DRIVE" sticker on the rear of the car that looked ridiculous and ruined the look , fortunately they scrapped the idea , cheers Silas🍻
Good Stuff and yes you are correct about older cars breaking down a lot more than newer ones however I can work on an older vehicle and get it running, The new ones, Well I cant even get the hood open on them. Many thanks for videos.... really enjoy them
Living in Australia, I'll keep an eye open for the Chrysler
Enjoyed seeing your random day to day work, I find that interesting. I think having a good organized area for you EBay sales will payoff in those super cold winter days we get. Peace
Glad to see you are getting organized. So happy to see it.
I'll keep an eye out for that 60s Chrysler in about 6 months here in Australia, a good save. With the threat of electric cars on the horizon the more saved the better, which brings to mind, how many years Silas do you reckon it'll be before your crushing electric cars?
I already do but not often because the batteries cost a fortune to dispose of. I try to avoid them.
@@AdventuresMadeFromScratch i thought scrap places paid good money for them batteries? Only car batteries?
You are getting organized more and more I keep watching.
Are you going to crush the old desk and chairs?
But organization is always worth the time and effort. 👍🏻👍🏻
Hope that shipping company realizes that one inconsiderate employee like that makes their whole company look bad!
That's great, good for you. Keep up the great work 👍 best to you and yours!
I would like to see you get yourself a nice Office Car Seat
Huge backlog of shipping to Australia, I am at 3 months and it is still in Los Angeles. Hope he has plenty of patience. 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
It’s all in hand!
Put some holes near bottom of barrel for better burning .
Hey Silas, Even if things don't work out the way you planned ( murphy's law ) We will still watch everything you do because you have a
way of making it exciting. Wish we could of met 25 years ago hahaha I would love to help you out, & I have family in Ponca City just a little
south of you across the state line. Have a great week brother !!!
That is going to be a great ebay office for when you need it. It would have been easier to leave the car on a trailer at your main yard, unless you were working with a reliable shipping company, but i'm really happy you sold it and not smashed it, it was a cool car. You could arrange all those old office things as an office in the crusher and crush it! (it would be great if you had a desk and chair).
The flypaper strip hanging from the ceiling is charming. I hope you saved it. Throwing away the furniture will improve the smell of the place tremendously. Don't forget to swamp out the toilet area!
Thanks for another cool video. The music to car crushing was relaxing as usual.
All your content is exciting to me every thing you do is so cool 😎
That is a nice office space , I've watched your channel and business grow in just the last year. I'm happy for you and your family , best of luck in the future!
Great video silas, keep'um coming..
I enjoy all of your videos! Great job as usual.
Don’t give up. Keep saving good cars
Thanks Silas and so sorry the shipper wasted your time. I told them to call you well beforehand, but as you say, shippers are not always the most reliable. The old car world and especially I do thank you for saving this car as it would have been a crying shame to crush it. It will now have a long life and my plan is to restore it too. I’ll add a video when it arrives in Australia. Thanks again and sorry for the delays. Cheers Mark
Save the beer can overflow bottle please!
Share that vid with us Silas! Please?
@@JohnShinn1960 that’s a factory option!
@@JohnShinn1960 I’ll send it to Silas so he can do that.
Congratulations on your new office.
That's a nice desk from what I can see of it.
I belive it's made out of that cheap saw dust wood that swells when it gets wet.
Nice fly trap strip!!! Lol
Do your kids enjoy watching your channel and seeing what you do at work?
My Dad had 56 Chrysler with push button shifter.
what a work ethic you have wish half the folk i deal with were as good as you keep on bud yours lee england
Congratulations on your first year in your new property! Glad you have a office, is there a garage on your property that can be used as a shop.?
you make me happy
Silas, I would like to know what decision you made with the 2,000lb bale of mattresses. I think the melt shop should put in the furnace just like that
I love your new shop
Love the Galileo thermometer, I have one just like it 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Silas money isnt everything,thank you for saving another real car, stay strong brother
crush crush crush love it and I agree time is money keep doing what your doing Silas
Well you should save at least one chair so Mr. good Plyers has a place to sit and visit with you.
You may find out that you'll want the table/desk that you pack boxes at, to be at a height where you stand up to work at it.
One of the devices you didn't know what it was is a label maker.
@ the 5:31 mark, the object next to the cookies looks like a label maker and I'd love to buy it from you.
I done car transportation I always called ahead and never late so that guy should get on the ball
Not sure what the flat item is but other item is a battery powered electronic labeler from dymo
Nice office
Why do I find your life so addictive?
Thing is, here in Oz, classic classic Aussie cars cost so much they are beyond reach for most people. It's way cheaper to import a classic American car than to buy an Aussie one. Even a fully restored American classic will be way cheaper than an Aussie classic. Maybe you could look into a RELIABLE shipping company and consider that there are many Aussies looking for classic American cars.
Anyway, that's just my thoughts on it.
Now you have an office, put your found trinkets from old cars into a large cool jar. Do those car Manuel's sell on eBay? Always enjoy your videos, every frustration is a learning experience
Manuals??
@@dimievers5573 At 6:16 there was a stack of car manuels.
@@barbfrank917 it's manuals . Manuel Is a Spanish name
@@dimievers5573 😆
Enjoyed the video
I've been meaning to ask you for a long time now. If you have ever crushed a Jeep Wrangler, did the roll bars give your crusher a harder time than a regular vehicle? I'm hoping you say yes. :D
My guess regarding roll bars is that due to the immense pressure of the crusher, the bars either just bend like the A, B and C pillars do or snap at the weld points depending on the quality of the roll bars. If you're looking for something to really try a crusher's capabilities, put an armored van in it. 👍
I crush cars with roll bars and cages fairly often with no issue. They just crumple.
I hope you didn't trash that roll top desk because that's got to be worth something. I would love to have one of those. Call one of the charities in your area to see if they would take any of the office furniture off your hands. That would save you from having to haul that away and help others who need that stuff. As always I enjoyed the video. Take care of yourself and your family.
They won’t pick stuff up and will only accept furniture if it is in excellent condition and you deliver. Probably 75% of what people donate gets toss in a dumpster and trashed.
Tell them loading and shipping is on them and a storage fee if not shipped promptly
Slow down and take things in stride. What’s the big rush? As far as crushing old cars. In my opinion it’s just a pile of cash waiting to be recycled. Crush them all and do your pockets justice. 👍🏻
I know a guy who sold a studebaker and they sent it to Australia
Heard that! I know the feeling of the should have just crushed it and moved on. 😆
Need a Missouri credit card that's a siphon hose
A fella that eats Chips Ahoy has got to be good....
I agree, better off to just crush them, then to go through all the trouble of selling them for only a few extra dollars.
Hi Silas. The Chrysler arrived in Australia. You can check it out on my channel. Cheers Mark
I think those hand held things are label makers
You need to hire an office manager
You got a great loader man case makes a fantastic 621 Fantastic yard but that kind of looks like Michigan are you near Detroit
Silas, i know exactly what you mean.
People suck. I've sold vehicles in the past and its a giant pain in the butt !! People dont show up, or show up late or want to make payments or haggle you down from the agreed price or the best one, they dont understand what AS IS means, and they call you a week later saying this wont work or thats broken. Nope. No more.. its just not worth the hassle anymore.
It was a shipping issue not a sales issue if you watch the episode.
Don't use Uship - they tried to screw me but luckily I had charged the fee to move my car through Visa. Visa jumped in and saved the day.
Roll top desk looks decent. Maybe put it on Craigslist or Marketplace along g with some of the other stuff?
When selling cars jack the price up to cover shipping hassles
I thought you were going on Strike😁
Lots of good stuff in the office. Donate to Goodwill or the Salvation Army. Folks can use the stuff and people get put to work. Win-win.
Goodwill and Salvation Army get so much stuff that if it isn’t super nice it goes straight to the landfill. I get about 8,000 lbs of metal a month from the local Salvation Army alone. Most of it is good stuff but no value.
I'd buy that white extra cab Ranger if I was closer cant find those here. Im currently truck shopping its a pain people just lie so bad then you get there its all junk
on the tabel the machine is a label maker
you could use a public relations representative to field all the requests for information on items. One man's junk is another man's treasure. :) We could split the proceeds. :) The rep could do all the postings on social media, ebay, etc. That would free up a great deal of your time.
Did I mention I was looking for a part-time job?
Cheers from Louisiana.
If you come across more cars like that one or in similar condition I will come to you with cash on barrel. You can email me if you want to and we can see about what you all have to get rid of. You have a great evening! TTYL I hope.
Isn't it funny how everyone wants America made car's .
We are only human!
Chips Ahoy for lunch...Sounds like something I'd do. In fact, a few weeks ago, a neighbor brought over a plate of food..."Thanks for keeping an eye on us!" she said. It was Spaghetti, Caesar Salad, veggies, etc. When I pulled the foil off and realized what it was, my first reaction was, "WHOA!!!!! REAL food????"
PFFF!!!!
(Oh. By the way. Do you a favor and don't forget the sandwich crackers for breakfast. Get the cheese kind. They're pretty good.)
(Hmm...Yup. Sure enough. That's good advice....................No, it's not. It's TERRIBLE advice. What am I DOIN'?? Best for me to quit while I'm behind...)
you need to sell the tractors and garden machinery on ebay theres a shortage of stock in the wourld
My day bought a 60 Chrysler imperial and a 62 in Florida had them shipped to Massachusetts they loaded the 60 just like your guy did 70 mph on the high way the trunk blew open they are not made to go 70mph backwards
take care business
Wassup
You can shred all that paper?
goodbye Mate!!!!
Were are you located if you still have the leather recliner to get rid of
Noice
Hi Silas am I mistaken or did the guy who took the 1960 Chrysler out of your yard forget to put up the skids on the trailer they looked as though they were dragging on the ground may just be me ime not sure.
Silas, I can appreciate the stress, I want you to just remember that money will never hug you, kiss you, listen to your day stuff. It can be used to get laid if thats your thing, or buy good health till it runs out like it did with me. My doctor would come out and say come on back Morgan and say we have some coffee and catch up on what we been doing. Just down right friendly like a family. I lost my seven digit account, I was down to a high four digit, an then I had to see his associate or wait like everyone else. Remember, they never will make that stuff anymore. And for good reason, cars are safer, some are even better but most are just glitter with limited time on their clocks. The reason your are so busy was because you make a difference to this community. I agree that shipping is horrible but your being swamped is because you finish what you start. If you want something fixed on your rig, go to the busiest place in town. They don't have time to waste and will spit it out like eggs out of chickens. Some guy who's shop has one or two cars is more busy drinking beer with his buddies or finding lots to do besides work. Now my doctor did not get all my money although I spent over a million on my back to be a permanent cripple. People took advantage of me an I let them. My own family took advantage of me the worst cause they had me put my properties in their name and then got loans on them and then gave it back to me with more money owed than worth. I lost everything I had. I think if you knew the whole story that you would be standing with me burning them out. The brother in law that did this is worth eleven million and counting. Maybe if you asked me if I had any family and I said no, you would understand. I hope that you get some rest and do some fun things before it eats you up
Looks like you need to stop burning the candle at both ends. What good are you to the business or to your family if you're dead. It's time to get some help.
