One of the most unique car rescues I've seen in a while. And, that's saying something since I've personally towed over 30,000 vehicles. Two thumbs up 👍👍.

That car was there 30 years ago when we had a 20th class reunion and it was a comedy club.Used to go there when I was in high school when it was called the carousel ballroom I believe. Going to miss the landmark for sure at least I know what happened to it. Great video!

Yes Carousels! Saw the Beatles tribute band 1964 there in 1997. What a great place.

What a great video. Saving the '56 was in itself a fantastic save. But saving those baby birds was very heart warming. Love you guys.

Morning Pete! Wow! It's amazing those baby Robin's survived the ride back to your shop, you did the right thing by calling your sister.... really enjoy your Mustang & vintage truck videos!! Keep em coming!!

You handled the guy jerking you around much better than I would have . Love the channel. Keep them coming.

I was very cool watching you guys take that 56 off the sign. Kudos for having a heart and saving the chicks👍 keep up the great work and the cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲

I always wondered if cars like these on signs would ever get taken down

An amazing journey, those sorts of roadside attractions were what America and its highways were about, to me as an Australian. And bless you for trying to care for the baby birds .

I used to ride by there all the time on my way to VanWert from Greenville. A friend showed me a picture of them removing it the other day and I knew right where it was, pulled it up on Google maps and showed him. I remember seeing all the names of the entertainers on the sign out front.

Another iconic piece saved!

It’s weird driving down 127 and not seeing this anymore! Thanks for saving it from scrapper.

You will be blessed for saving the sparrows.

I had a trucking route that took me by this car on a weekly basis in the 90s. Just happened to be driving by again a few weeks ago and was surprised to see the car gone. I was even more surprised to see this video come across my recommendations. Thanks for sharing!

Time marches on and I'll miss that when I drive by. I hope I can see it return to the road one day

Visited Idaho in 03, first and only time I visited the USA and was amazed by the amount of cars on poles I saw.

Driven by that for years , def. was a landmark.

Used to go there in the 70's. It was the Carasel then.

i love that it will eventually see the streets again instead of wasting away .

This videos for the birds😆 Seriously.. this is a good and fun video

Good to see it come down off that Cross and get Saved rather than languishing up there on that pole out in the elements rusting out for eternity. Save the American Icon!

RHAT WAS VERY INTERESTING! YOU ALWAYS FIND THE UNUSUAL ONES.

we see your sensitive now Pete! Bravo! That's actually a nice chevy

Theres a moving place near me with a 1967-1972 C50 chevy dump truck on the roof & a crane would probably be way to much money but id love to take it down & restore it.

Glad to see the bids made it back safely with you guys. Seems like a kick ass landmark but judging by google maps there is nothing around there, getting it down was probably best in my opinion.

Thanks for another , Brother. !!

That car was up there for years. I remember it was taken down and redone in the 90's.

Hope to see it drive….looks clean

Great video. Reminds me of the vw that was on the pole on 66 in Washington township. Someone took that down. I guess the body shop wentbout of business 28:29

My grandparents lived down the road from this car kinda sad for me to see it go

Birds where happy to lick the ketchup from the takeout tray!

The car is in excellent shape, but even so I can’t imagine it’s worth much more than what you needed to pay the riggers and your time and expense to haul it home.

Directly across the street from Ballard High School in Seattle was Zesto's, a burger place. For 40 plus years there was a 57 Belair hardtop on the roof

That looks like my 56 up on that sign! :) There is a 56 Ford Crown Victoria on a sign down here in Whitney Texas. Don't know the story. Garage looks to be closed up.

Parody of alman Brothers song: 🎶that chevy is no longer tiiiied to the advertising post, Tiiiied to the advertising post..... Good lord I feel like doin' resto-modding🎶

It was great as a billboard before but it's is well past time to make it running classic car again.

My first time on a lull, I removed a quansethut of a tractor trailer and I only had forklift training

That would be a cool video making it run and drive

“For sale. Always elevated off the ground and stored in climate control storage, never seen rain or snow. Rarely driven anymore, need gone, bring cash”

That was a lot of hard work and a lot of broken hearts just so you could sell it.

There’s something sort of like this up in Vermont where I am from it’s a giant concrete gorilla holding a vw beetle

Up here where I live we have a pink demon or duster waiting to hear its fate. Chilliwack B.C

Down 42 from lodi to Willard their is a 57 on a barn you would want to see

id leave the car looing like this, Paint it what ever color this is and get it running and driving

Nice

I live about a half hr from there been by it many times

I would have left the rear axle on the sign and got it on a second pick. Cut the leafs.

Was wondering what made them decide to change the sign and part ways with it?

just a few shades lighter and that chevy would be the fabled shade of pink

There's a mid year Corvette in the same position that 56 was here in Washington at a wrecking yard.. how much for the 56??

I believe the 1956's are more rare at car shows you see many 57's and 55's but not 56's. I think the 1956 is a better looking car.

Dude could have just moved back further, eliminating that "careful maneuver" all together

Lookup the car on a sign in Alexandria indiana at the hardware store.

You can feed those birds with a eyedropper with formula and when they get a little bigger maybe even as they are now you can get worms and smash them up and then give them little pieces

I think you have to name that car the Dirty Bird now.

I drive past that sign every day for work but never really payed attention to it ... when did yall cut it down ??

Curiosity Inc in canada, also channel name did a video of a man who has a channel with his wife. They have one of the nicest collections of 58 chevy impalas. One is just like the american graffiti car Ron Howard drove in the movie.... he has also got a lot of great iron, old pickups and cars plus some hundred year era rigs.... like the all metal dodges from mid thirties. I know for a fact that if you see it or them, as his last video being a tour of this yard would put you hustling up for a look or buying many of them. I can only figure it was a glory hole of nice rigs in this area. My commission would be a honorable mention in your videos. I myself am seventy three and know cars and trucks well, have commented on this channel before.
