  • Mr. Goodpliers and Joe look over a collection of vintage cars and trucks that were left in the woods! It's auction day, so time to make some picks and tinker on them! How many will run and drive? More than you might guess!

    Thought the DeSoto's were all pretty good buys with just the hood ornaments ($100-$200) on the 49-52 cars recovering a good portion of the cost. The 49 Chevy was pretty complete but I liked the 52 DeSoto the best with that near perfect hood ornament and grille (which should bring a good return being a grille many customizers prefer for their Mercury or other car redo). Unlike Pontiac where you had the standard hood ornament or a different optional light up Indian hood ornament, the 50-52 DeSoto's used the same ornament where the standard face insert was metal and you could insert the optional light up face in the very same ornament. If that 42 Plymouth would have been a coupe that would have been pretty high on my list. So few 1942 anything still survives today. Very enjoyable video. Thanks.

Loved to drive it as it was my very first car purchase at age 15. Wish I had it now back then it was just a.old car and they were everywhere. Enjoyed this video can't believe how cheap old iron goes for in your part of the country. If that sale was here in Florida prices would have been much higher.
