- I RARELY ATTEND AN AUCTION. I SAW SOME INTERESTING TRUCKS COMING UP FOR AUCTION. SO I WENT TO LOOK THEM OVER. SOME ATTRACTIVE STUFF, SOME STUFF I THOUGHT WOULD GO WAY OVER WHAT IS IS WORTH TO ME AND SOME THINGS THAT I THOUGHT MIGHT GO REASONABLE...HOPE YOU ENJOY.
If this clown wants a new truck he should go to the dealer, not the auction.
funny.....how many trucks have you bought in your life?
I know its an old video, but I beg to differ, JC just calls it how it is. Nonetheless, new trucks have more issues and out of service time than old trucks will. Its just good to know what we're looking at and point it out. Its very educational for those who care and are interested.
Auctions are always "buyer beware". I know of many folks who send trucks, tractors & cars to the local auction that need "major" work. Yes, they make it there, they run & drive... but.
“Throwing a hotdog down a hallway!” I love it!
I wasn't sure if he was talking about the transmission or Kamala Harris
@@vicktorpatriot1430 I know, he is just So witty..... Wow! 🤣😂
Love the truck shopping. Thanks for sharing..
I love auctions, you can find some good stuff sometimes, but no one really sends their best to get sold
Those are some high dollar auctions you have up north. I was surprised at how much those rust bucket trucks sold for
Hi JC. The Unimog is built by Mercedes Benz. The one you saw was a Unimog 419 and was a collaboration between MB, Case and Frieghtliner done for the US military. I think The engine is a 5.7 ltr six cylinder Diesel coupled to a 16speed transmission.
that n-14 in that eagle sounded like it had a hurt hole for sure. that mack dump truck was pretty cool. i rarely ever end up buying anything from auctions seems like everything always goes for more than im willing to pay for it.
yeah you could feel the light hole whe you sit in the seat. worn out neglected yard art.
My dad had an old case unimog 406 with a plow, salt spreader, and backhoe. It was the coolest truck and could push mountains of snow
The green truck is a older type Unimog, made by Mercedes, greetings from Belgium
Thanks for the walk-around. Some valuable info there, that's for sure. I have been pretty lucky on my buys over the years. Not because I knew what I was doing, but just got lucky on my heavy truck purchases. In the last 10 years there have been a slew of good, well-maintained trucks coming out of Ca. because they couldn't meet the emissions standards. I like to look for those.
When I see a listing and it says not for sale in California or doesn't meet CARB restrictions. I figure it is worth a detailed look.
I like rain at auctions. Keeps people away.
One of the biggest auctions I went to it was below zero with a 20 mph wind. I guess everybody had the same idea; bad weather/small crowds/good deals. Stuff went sky-high.
With the new emissions laws in California, I'm convinced there's money to be made buying those rust free trucks and transporting them to the east coast to sell
The Unimog is a jack of all trades. You can configure it to be a loader, snow plow, sweeper, digger, wrecker, etc. I love the auctions, and with all those Internationals, I'm not leaving without at least two. I agree about the low GVWR on that flat deck. Might break suspension parts hauling a forklift and a man lift. Loved the video. It was a lot of fun perusing the inventory.
Thanks for the auction video. I wished you put the selling price of the Unimog. It was nice to see, something diffrent.
I’ve always wanted to go to a truck auction. You never know what deals you might come across, and it looks like you found a few diamonds in the rough.👍
picking up the last 2 today. it was a good auction for me.
One thing about auctions is that you can see people's problems for someone else that buys. You have a great evening JC 👍.
Appreciate you taking the time to tell us the sold prices. Shocked you bought that lighter duty rollback but the price must have been right. Was not so surprised about the black crew cab and yes those grain trucks are generally low miles and in good shape.
I may get nuts seeing so many hidden treasures. Wow very impressive 👌😎 Thanks for sharing your videos 😎
That Mercedes unimog is a nice piece of equipment.
One of my favourite vehicles
Ty for once again for an awesome video. 8 could look at trucks with you all day long. Ty for being so thorough with things.
Prices are crazy on anything with wheels at the moment. Even when it's being weighed in. Thanks for the insightful video mate and happy new year to you and your wife 👍
Oh boy hopefully some new projects.
Thanks for the tour. I've always wanted to go to one of those auctions.
I liked the silver International. Such a shame it sold for too much. Prices are beyond *ridiculous* around here as well. 😬 I'm looking forward to see what you put that rollback bed on 🙂👍
i was really hopeful for it and the blue one....oh well. i only buy a small percentage of trucks i look at. if it dont make dollars, it dont make sense!
had a 3176 in a freight bought it in il. drove it bobtail to Puget sound average speed was 95 mph fuel mpg 16 that's what really sold my I hauled heavy 105500 gvw 7-9 mpg loaded in heavy seattle traffic all day every day . the bitch about 3176 was breaking timing covers because of the ac compressor cat fixed the issue but the reputation was set .
fuel cost and reliable matter to me.
and it was a goody
Thanks for bringing us along JC.
I think the model terminator Arnold Schwarzenegger played was a T-800.
I really enjoyed this video J.C. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
I knew You couldn't pass up the Rust-Oleum rebuild!
that bed will have to come off that truck. i could never use it to its capacity on that light of a truck.
from the Netherlands thanks for the video J.C.
nice to see a auctions video
I wonder what the Unimog went for?
The Rona got everything down, great vid thx JC!
that UNIMOG is made by mercedes Benz in Germany .... mercedes Diesel engine in it .. this is some military spec with the front end loader and the backhoe ... normally you see them configured as trucks or snow plows or or or .... they are "half truck" and "half farm tractor" .... long story but I dont want to bore you with details ... LOL. UNIMOG is the abbreviation for Universal Motor Geraet..... which means as much as universal motor tool or machine ..... it can have a thousand and one configurations and uses ...
That 9370 's front shocks are rusted to where you can almost see thru them.
Love watching these videos! always interesting so see what is getting dragged home.!!
The Unimog is made by Mercedes Benz. They're seriously capable vehicles, but you really need to know your apples to score a decent one, especially at auction, as they can have a whole host of problems, and they're often expensive or very expensive to fix...
That old brown eagle was pretty beat.
I love auctions
not me. i rather buy right from the seller.
I'm a big fan of auctions. Mostly smaller tools and equipment. I've been to the big heavy equipment auctions in Florida. Auctions for me are like going to an amusement park.
tHanks for the video!
The Unimog was made by Mercedes, don’t know who made the loader or backhoe attachments
Mercedes benz makes the unimog
17k seems too high for that KW when you consider the under-powered engine and the clutch and front tire problems. I guess someone will make a dump truck from it. But then it would need a tag axle.
I wouldn't be putting a tag on it, I could see a pusher being put on it, but not a tag.
That rollback has an old bed but they are a very simple design
Roll it out and watch bed slam to the ground need to be aware of the stabilizer being down
it is just like the green rollback i bought and the international rollback truck i built.
Yup… did enjoy. Thanks
Trucks are crazy. Inventories are low and prices are high
That black International was nice!
That's a unimog. Used in the military.
Hope you do a follow up video picking them up.
Nothing like a old kw 👍🏻
Show us what not to buy and what to look for when buying
Ive got that same gooseneck, believe it or not my 11k pound skid steer Ben the ramps just like that one.
Thanks for auction
Never buy a truck from someone who has an emotional attachment to it. Value is always too high to start. Auction is a better bet. The attraction is broken already, they have moved on.
i prefer to not buy at an auction. every truck is a scooby doo mystery to solve.
Did you see the shock on the front of that international semi half of it was gone 🤣😅😂😂😂😅😂😅
People bring their crap to sell at auctions. An auction creates an "Impulse Buy" when you're afraid the next guy will bid ten bucks more and get it, so you end up Over spending just to get something that you couldn't talk to the mechanic or test drive it.
not me. i know what i want to spend on something and i have no problem walking away without it. "IF IT DOESNT MAKE DOLLARS, IT DONT MAKE SENSE!"
@@j.c.smithprojects huh?..... Oh I get it, sense- cents- like dollars and cents.... Your a crafty one ! 10-4 Rubber Duck, got the pedal to the wood and the thingy to the floor.,...🤣😂👍
Those double coin tyres are good I have em on my Maserati 300s..
Would it make sense to buy rust-free trucks in Arizona / Utah and drive em back?
it works ok as long as you dont have any break downs. road side repair service can eat up any profit and leave you in the hole really quickly.
Sheesh...!
that goose neck flatbed was pretty light weight & looked a bit re-paired because of it... crazy money for that...
That was an Appalachian Trailer. Made near Salem Ohio All their trailers look like they just barely make the load rating.
they got better after they were bought out by the owner of kaufman and qaulity.
what do you use to get rid of the mouse smell mate, i didnt catch what you said
my remove the entire interior and my wife steam cleans it.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to get a response from you sir but I need an opinion from someone who knows a little bit about international DT466 engine in a 2004 4300 international. When it's cold out the truck doesn't want to start and when it does it misses real bad until it warms up. But if I plug the block heater in the truck starts fine when it's cold doesn't miss or anything. I was told by an international mechanic that I have sticking injectors and that I need probably at least one or two new injectors. But they weren't able to determine which injector I needed so they recommended that I put all six new injectors in. My question to you sir is will this correct my cold weather starting if I put new injectors in? I thought maybe you had experienced this issue and you know exactly how to solve my problem. If you do respond I thank you very very much and if you don't respond I understand because there's probably so many people that send you messages. Have a blessed day
i always start with the basics. good fuel, good fuel filters and air filters, drain water separator, good clean oil and at the proper level. this uses a huei system to fire the injectors. oil level and condition is important. 2004 and up dt466 has an intake grid heater as a cold weather starting aid. it is between the air intake horn and the intake manifold. it has 2 larger power cables going to it. this will heat the air as it enters the engine when ambient temp is 50* or below. first verify that it is working properly by checking power and ground on its terminal and check the amperage draw. a worn engine with low compression can act the same way. my advice would be to remove all six injectors, do a compression test and a cylinder leak down test on each cylinder. this will tell you the overall condition of the cylinder, pistons, rings and valves. low compression and or cylinder leak down can cause hard start in cold weather as well. by plugging in the block heater, it warms up the worn parts. this can increase compression and reduce leak down. while the injectors are out, send them to a reputable test/rebuild shop to be checked out. i only replace one injector if the truck and or engine are at the end of its life. otherwise, i replace all of them as a set. the huei system can cause this as well but i dont see that often. most times it will cause hard start due to not enough pressure. this is less of a problem in the cold weather due to the oil being cold and thicker,. i would not dismiss it but i would certainly verify it had pressure while cranking.
If you need a super large ratcheting wrench set I have a new Wiha 13/16"-1-1/2" 10pc set, Wiha 30384, listed on eBay.
no. i have a good set of snap on and mac wrenches up to 2 1/2". they are not ratcheting but i mostly use them on hydraulic lines anyway.
@@j.c.smithprojects 2-1/2" is a very large wrench, I've been able to get my Armstrong set up to 1-1/2" and a 2", but I bought 2 of these wiha sets because it was one of those deals that rarely comes around, clearance at 90% off. All because they switched to a matte finish and had to clear the chrome out
That n14 truck sold for less than the rebuild will cost...nice rollback, needs elbow grease!
if it only needed an in frame, it may have been of interest....it needed the steering wheel jacked up and a new truck put under it.
We're very interested in your channel!We has a brand new wall-mounted pressure washer to be released. We are thinking if we could have a chance to collaborate to this new product.Hope get your reply!
what is the voltage and pressure rating? where is it made?
It was a good day! Got to talk to some friends and didn't get too wet! Lol. I made out better than you ,I didn't buy anything! We tried!
Yup. Same here.
I ended up with 4 trucks, a flatbed and some misc. things.
i was hopeful on a few other items but.they went beyond what they sold for when they were new.
Unimog is part of Mercedes Benz I believe.
😎👍
Unimog is a part of the Mercedes Benz group
Mercedes makes the Unamog!
$16k for that yellow truck.... holy sucker!
Mercedes’ makes the Unimug! Yea
Cut 4' off that black truck and she would make a great mower mover!
that was my thought in the beginning. not sure now.
Can we have a video on the new trucks
does the auction house get the buyer premium?
Yes, and, usually a % commision also from the vendor. Don't forget that there may well be local taxes to pay as well!
yes and they charge the seller an additional 10-15% on average. some have a cap on how high the percentage can go...others just keep taking.
Green thing is a Unimog
was the yellow truck your old toe truck before u sold or gave it to ur friend?
no. i had looked at that truck to buy but passed due to the many splices in the frame. as well as many holes drilled in the top flange of the frame.
@@j.c.smithprojects oh ok, sorry my bad, thankyou for the fast ancer
thats a mercedes unimog
Stay away from cats 3176 or 3176b ...because spacer betwen block and cylinder head...better c12 cats ...1997 trough 2002
Yes that was a Unimog 419 made by Freightliner.
Mercedes actually.
At that time wasn't Freightliner building those under contract for Mercedes?
@@michaelmcclure8673 nope.
I stopped looking at auctions last yr because ppl still paying market value or more. U go to get a deal not over pay and with the clowns in the auction pools now I wouldn’t return until ppl understand the benefits of an auction
i rarely go to an auction. prefer to buy straight from the fleet owners. if i bought them, they were definitely below what i thought they were worth in today's market and the market BEFORE truck prices sky rocketed.
@@j.c.smithprojects I bought my 2015 pro star with Navistar motor for $44k back in 2018. I literally could put it up for sale and still make my money back that’s how bad it is and it’s been like that for almost 3 years now and yet people are still buying
a 2015 prostar with a maxxforce engine can be bought for pennies on the dollar here. still an undesirable engine by most people i sell to. i only buy them to use for parts. i refuse to sell one to someone.
@@j.c.smithprojects I haven’t had any issues with mines other than the DPF filter but then again I bought miles after they fix the issues that were played in the Navistar motor. Looking to do a motor swap at the end of this year because I saw a 2015 prostar with a Cummins motor of a day cab so might as well
Mercedes Unimog
Volvo have good engine???
no, it was a volvo engine.
hi JC
3306 weren’t a goood truck engine same as the l10 cummins
Big guy in little truck
Mercedes unimog....
Wassup
Mercedes Benz are company ho lade and kanin tyve unimog
Of course the prices are out of control, apparently anyone can drive a truck now, even an idiot who knows his brakes aren't working can cry a only get 10 years for killing 4 people,,,
some new truck manufactures had cancelled trucks that were on order and have an extremely long build lead time due to the shut down, lack of parts and employess. supply and demand. low supply, higher demand equals higher prices.
I don’t like auctions to many idiots and way overpriced ending bids
