How’s life holding up? :)

I'm from Brazil and I loved seeing this video, you found a rare 1939 Ford Woodie, hope you can restore it and logical post another video to watch it as it was. Thank you for your attention

Great clip Mike, This Woodie was made the year I was born. Keep the shows coming we enjoy the so very much.

Absolutely amazing, another vehicle brought back to life.

I was doing this on a small scale in the northwest. This is the best show on television in my opinion and its on the only channel worth watching...usually.

my dad used to own a 49 ford woodie, when he wore it out, he got a 50 buick woodie and when he wore that out, he got a 58 chevy fake woodie,,,he was in the window cleaning business....:)

That car is worth a WHOLE lot of money. Even with the modification. They didn't say what he ended up paying for it.

Robbie and Mike!!!

who would have thought these guys would have the greatest show ever picking is awesome

I love Mike, I think he is awesome...love that he is a family man.

you Guys I LOVE!!!! One of Favorite S!!!You Are REAL and Cannot WAIT to watch💙💙💜

I love this show! It inspires me and gives me tones of ideas to build more antique miniatures! Thanks for sharing! ~ Seb ~

Love this show. nice pick

I love you Mike you are the best picker in America

I love watching this video...Thank you for showing i enjoyed it...

Great to see these early videos! Good to have when you need an American Picker's fix--and there are none on the TV!

God what a great show! Wish I was producing this myself!

You mean Mike actually likes old cars? I can't count the number of times I've watched the TV show and wondered how it was he and Frank could walk right by garages or yards full of classic cars without even glancing at them as they're searching for antique stuff to buy and re-sell. It's always boggled my mind how they can be oblivious to the huge collector car market in the US.

That's awesome. I would put it in a car show, all cleaned up, just like it is. Nice!

Great Show !

What an awesome pick!! Beautiful!

my dad had one of these in the 50s. he also had a portable merry-go-round which advertised some new england soda. he drove it around from town to town w/ his woody and paid for college by giving kids rides for 25 cents or something like that. sure would like to have those toys today!

Excellent Job guys, Excellent job!. Great show, great production value.

Love this show!

LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH!!! - greetings from Philippines

Wow. That's a beauty car! This show is awesome.

Good for u Mike and Frank luv ur show

awesome show

Finally my idea of a show has come to the history channel!

Pre Frank, OMG!

Excellent no frank go it alone mike you and your brother are the only reason we watch,not some tight arse oil can buying pizza eating cat loving oaf...🇬🇧

Old is gold

So damn cool man! Love it!

That thing is freakin sweet! All it needs is a chromed out small block sitting under the hood.

awesome show =D

Just love the slicker pickers .

Part 2 of my comment: . They went and found these people and small towns and gave them cash money they didn't have yesterday, if they didn't go and find the stuff it would sit there another fifty years until it was worthless. Great show and I don't think Mike is a "douche" he is a great mix of a good business sense and an appreciation for these warm country folk and their back stories. He , like me loves to hear these people stories. Great show.

this show is cool i saw it on the history channel last night. i think the shows gunna do good its interesting

I've been to the actual shop! They have alot of cool stuff. :)

Look at those Young Wolfe bro's!

Great show, someones junk is another persons treasure for sure.

Hey I think this show as a chance at succeeding! It could be BIG. You guys looking for investors?

Good god, who wouldn't want to own that truck? It's every pickup truck lover's dream. Well, mine, anyway.

How much did he pay for it?

I love that it was chopped because someone blew the roof out

Back in the day, we didn't have roll-cages. Or seatbelts. There's a '32 ford rottin out in a thicket that one my relatives died driving during some wood-slappin thigh-slappin racin event. As much as I respect him, I'd really rather have that car in good shape. Even 50's era chop-rod, but it's ruined. Even if I didn't own it, someone might be able to make a decent hot rod out of it, but no. He ruined it for the rest of us. For that, I sincerely apologize.

What a beauty!

Awesome

I and my son have been doing this on the weekends for about 12 years and I myself have been doing it for 34 years but it's only a hobby for me I have to work at a real job for a living but maybe I'll fall and hit my head and realize this is my calling.

Mike looks 30 years older now lol

@AmericanPhotography Yeah american restoration is so under rated

Roached it!!!! Love it.

Nice

I’m Robert Francis, I love your TV Show. I have Elvis Presley Jacket. And A Toys Of Motorcycle. And More.

my dad and my uncle liove watching this my cousin wishes she was an american picker!!!! LOL!!!!

I know Mike.No,he's not gay and he's a real nice guy.

Pickers for life!

You're so cool mike from Philippines

HAVE SOME FINDS OF MY OWN TO SHOW SOME DAY.

(Points to woodie) "That's real steel"

I love this show,iam a picker myself,and belive me its hard to stop,lol

@ps3tna I produced the videos and pitched the show as far back as 2006

loveeeee it.

There still out there i bagged one last year😊

You don't drive a hot rod to get good MPG's. You drive them because their fun, look awesome, and are a nice break from the cookie-cutter cars we have in current time

@dano415 I love these guys and I love this show but that was the funniest thing I heard all week!

Great show,few are these days. Working on one myself. stevepitbull intro

Badazz Show.

really cool cats

Yeah I wanted to know too but they cut that part out if you noticed so he got it for peanuts did not want the public to know, most of the dealings they do show what they got and what they paid for it. its a very Rare woodie in its original state.

I love you .jadore cette emision😆👄💋❤💓💞💕💖💟

You know, I'm a collector and understand the importance of certain things you'd like to hang on to, but some of the people (sellers) in American Pickers make no sense. I often want to ask them "hang on to it...why?" If the items is something that is busted, broken down and in obvious need of repair/restoration, then get rid of it. Unless you want to die while owning it, here's my criteria for hanging on to something: (a) you intend to pass it on your children (but the requirement here is they actually have to "want it"); or (b) you intend to have it restored - and I mean in the near future, not some pipe dream of having done when your in your 80's and near death. Great memorable yearns to be restored and owned by people who want to preserve history and show it to others to learn about it. It does not serve that purpose just sitting in your barn. Let it go into the world to be restored in shown to others. That's how we preserve our historical culture. And we'd better do it before the liberal-progressive revisionists of history wipe it all out and no one will remember the things we built that built this country.

guyfroml The purpose of hanging on to something is if it makes you happy. Everyone dies while owing things, and after you go, someone else will possess it and it will make them happy. As long as holding it is not a burden or millstone, and the piece, though unrestored, is not moudlering outdoors, why shouldn't they hang onto it?

You can't figure these people, it's a damn disease and no one gets out alive!

This guy was so much younger here

Yea, I love this show too, It is the perfect reality show because I read up on the show and they actually do tape it live so when you see the barndoor open it is the first time they have seen it too, it is not restaged like so many "reality shows" where the camera is already inside the house when we are supposed to believe that they just knocked on the door. I just can't believe how many people accuse them of taking advantage of elderly. Hey they are BUSINESS MEN, businesses make a profit

to all the negative people who think these guys rip people off think again. they are looking(and buying) things that have sat not being used,forgotten,abandoned etc for many many years and then they come along and offer money for it. I am sure the people who sell to them are VERY happy just to give it the potenial for life again instead of just rotting away to nothing plus they get some cash out of it to boot.

Mike Wolfe would make a great joker.

I would have really liked to have seen this truck fully restored or handed over to the counting cars crew, great find.

Hello

Would like to see a full episode or two of what they did with the vehicles they purchased. How far they restored them, sales price and what they made or lost on each vehicles. It seems the bit they show us they lose money on every vehicle they purchased.

Like the show way way more without Frank in it. Mike and his brother are awesome together

Mike seems to be a fair guy. He's good with his appraisal and cash giving. Frank is Frank !, may he rest in peace ! .
