On this “On the Hunt” episode I explore more of the old iron at auction including old Fords, Fargos, Kenworths, Stars, and a bunch of old oilfield trucks made for working in the Alberta patch. I even found another cabover K100 kenworth. I did my best to post the as sold price in Canadian $$$ so you have an idea ofwhat this stuff is currently going for. If you’re new to the channel, I have a sever addiction to old semi-trucks and you just can’t keep me away from them. Unfortunately, too many of the trucks at this sale were well out of my price range, but who knows, maybe someday I’ll be able to buy something that doesn’t need to be dragged home. Hope you enjoy following me around…

No idea. He proposed to Amber and they were expecting so maybe life has just taken over. I didn't realise until I started checking the upload dates on his videos, he was uploading just about every day and you just can't keep that up when you've got a newborn and a wedding to plan. I guess he'll be back some day.
My dad used to work for K&C probably about 12 years ago and I remember sitting in those beds trucks as a kid.kind of sad to see them end up at a Richie brother’s auction all these years later.
Man I'm in love with that Fargo damn I wish I would've known about that thing that is so bad ass!

Yea...that Fargo was minty.
When I was younger my dad an a 71 f100. Nice ford. An killer rig in the thumbnail.
Oh man. A twin steer cab over with a 2 stroke Detroit. That puts some rustle in the jimmies. What a cool truck
The oldest trucks fired right up.. the newer ones sitting with dead electronics.. and the Bruce Wilson joke was hilarious..I had forgotten all about that guy..
Old Fords are just beautiful trucks
Beauty of a old Ford
Wow , that Fargo was classic, my happy place too ! Unfortunately not a lot of the big iron auctions here out east . The oil patch sure generates a diverse amount of ,machinery.The duel axle with the Detroit was awesome too .Thank you Mark , another great video .👍
The 2015 C500, looked like it had a FIFTH WHEEL.!🤔!. DID IT.?🤔?🤔? LOVE THE VIDEOS🥰. KEEP 'em COMING🥰🥰. RICH (UK) 🥰🥰🥰.
I completely support your hatred for automatics! It took all the fun out of trucking
Back in the day, Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth had some absolutely incredible ideas, marvels of engineering, but their quality control was and still is spotty.

I too love the auctions just because you never know what your going to find,sometimes there are those little surprises you never expect and of course going to the auction is like going to Costco were you went in with the mind that here is my budget today for this trip and walk out wondering how you spent twice that....lol Like that Fargo truck that is old school and quite the job on the interior,you know who ever had it loved that truck to do that cause they wanted to keep it looking sharp and you can bet they spent a few bucks doing it but you dont see many of those running around I am sure that is out of someones farm. Those 6 wheel drives with the bog tires man I was on a lease site and there was one section of land in it that had a serious dip in it like deep steep ditch style and everything was like mud snow swamp I mean they were using a dozer to help pull trucks and semi out of the lease, well this guy got in the 6 wheel and fired her up and headed straight for the deep fitch style area donw hill and it was boggy as hell there and we all are standing there watching thinking he is going to get stuck,the guy goes down there puts that thing in 5 wheel does a 180 and comes cruising right out of there like it was a walk in the park and blows right by us and hits the lease road out,wasnt any of us standing there that wasnt impressed as hell by that even more so at the big old smile he flashed passing by us I had to LOL at the paint on that one gravel hauler , someone definitely did the slap a coat of paint on it before it goes to auction so it looks better for the sale job...that dirt trapped under the paint... that's just poor mans rock guard. The old KW that someone rock guarded to death hooo I would hate to see what it is like under that rock guard,kind of a shame really someone could have done a better job and made that sweet and brought in a way better dollar, but obviously someone didn't want to go that far and well rock guard is cheap.... crying shame though oh man that old ford truck... nice ride, someone took pride in that I almost fell out of my chair when I saw what it went for, yowza but got tolve it, they were solid as a damn rock and those old trucks went forever, they were built like tanks, bump someone at the light doing 20kmh you would be lucky if you scratched the bumper... do that todays and you have a 10k repair bill Now that you let the cat engine out of the bag you can bet the Twinsticks community will be "On The Hunt" to help see what they can do to find some of those cat engines... they are a pretty resourceful bunch. Enjoyed the episode, look forward to the next update!
I love it when you find and show the sow's especially the mother sows keep it up I love seeing them
Really enjoy your ‘wandering through the auction’ videos, some interesting motors there.
One of my favorite body styles of pick ups. That is so beautiful & i love that rumble
Nice Video. I feel the same way, gotta have "Sticks" to play with!
Been a subscriber for a while now, really getting me motivated to get my air brakes and try to restore some old iron.
Thanks for sharing your passion! Fun to tag along.
aahahahahhahahahahahaha missing the hole in the floor lolol, I'll never forget my Uncle Art telling me stories about that 😂😂😂👌

Vintage busses going for cheap right now too, even though most vehicles are up incl. RVs. Even harder to find someone to work on them, though, takes a special breed, so it's still a buyer's market.
Leather jacket on the mack bulldog , very cool .
I love the old fargo! As a young man i drove a ford tandem with the 5 and 4 set up with gas motor and no power steering. A mans truck that a boy was driving. Great memories!
That truck in the thumb nail photo looks like one of those crazy radio control truck conversions guys would build out of 2 tamiya clodbusters👍
The logger I worked for had a Dodge just like that set up as a tandem log truck. The swing out fender was a cool feature!
It don’t take but a couple of bolts being tweaked and a larger fuel line and you have a 550hp B block, do a little extra and you’re near 600hp, it’s crazy what little bit of work is required to gain hp on them
Lmao Slapshot. One of the funniest movies ever.

10:10... Needing TWO HANDS to change gear.!😲😲😲!. Seems KINDA DANGEROUS eh.!🤣!. LOVE THE VIDEOS🥰. KEEP 'em COMING🥰🥰. RICH (UK) 🥰🥰🥰.
I'm back! I've missed your videos. I'm having a blast going through these trucks with you right now!!
I love hearing those old school auctioneers when they start rambling off those numbers puts a big smile on my face every time.
Love the blue stacks on that dump that drove by!
Stumbled on this channel only my second vid but I fell in love with these beautiful machines I have always loved big rigs and I think it's so cool how this channel hits the spot interms of the cool content craving I have absolute pure Bliss I can see how excited Mark gets I feel the exact same my only regret is not being there in real life lol love it ...... .. ............ .. .
I still have a 90 pete with a 92 3406b 425 hp. I turned her up myself, running 565 hp at the flywheel.
The Mac dog with the leather jacket was the best part.i have several Mac dogs and ride bikes. I've gotta find or make one for one of my dogs.
awsome video mark those are some huge trucks some neat stuff there for sure thumbs up and shared
Yessir nothin like twinsticks in the mornin!
Love that 77 ford pickup
Love that big truck good luck buddy
That 68 Fargo with the sweet interior, Canada Flag headliner, made my pulse quicken! My Pop drove old Fargos.
Auction hunt is slowly becoming my favorite part of this channel
Everything here is still online only.. :( Good thing you us to see stuff!
Bless you Twinstick from Glacier County, Montana
I was hauling equipment in there that exact same day, man it’s a small world! haha
Love that Fridge handle Dodge! Drove one just like it (but worn out) back in the day 413 in it:)
Great video Mark!! Just love that old Fargo, but I agree with you big dreams and empty pockets. I would love to find an old Bighorn Dodge but they are few and far between now and very pricey, but I will keep looking. That blue Pete you looked at was an awesome looking unit too. Keep on the hunt see you in the next one.

So, on many of my KZread subscriptions, I'll skip over and breeze through many vids. - On twinsticks, I watch EVERY SECOND! Awesome!
Hi that fargo 800 wow what a classic; man that's nice wow.
Love these gravel trucks. Gotta love love a tipper 😉
Start looking for the battery disconnect switch if the truck has no power when starting
“Looks like Bruce Wilson’s cab over” 😂
That Ford pick up is absolutely beautiful!
Yeah , My Dad had a 72 Ranger XLT 390 4 speed , lifted just enough , LOVED THAT TRUCK
Good times at K&C oil field hauling now at the action
Love the Richie bros videos keep em up
Say what you will about mack. Everybody loves the bulldog haha.
That '77 F-250 was exceptional, but so was the price! Wow, that went for a lot of money!
Hiboys are my favorite trucks ever made
My F250 High Boy was Metalic Brown and a '74.
Very beautiful upholstery in the Canadian pride truck
I dig that Dodge tandem dumper. Like the old Matchbox King Size 🤘🏻
Hammers Gravel Service I remember passing those guys alot running HWY 14 between Tofield and Wainwright.
I was to cheap to pay to have my 73 mgb painted after I restored it so I painted it myself in my garage. Basically I watched so many u tube videos on painting, it turned out great other than some orange peel that can be buffed out if I cared to. You can do the paint yourself!
@12:40 "Who own the Chiefs?" "Owns, owns" "Ownz, ownza"
Great video thanks for showing the sale price for the ones you look at.
At the 5 minute mark , That's my daily driver !
O, Canada; whoah, Canada. 😜
That old fargo is what we called a dodge 600 here in the states i think. Thats one of those trucks that if you get it stuck you need to walk wherever your going. What a massive truck. Its so big you have to have two cdl's to drive em
Love the bulldog in the Blue Oyster get-up.
Where Icomefrom we call em 'Driptroits'!
That C500 with the 13 and a 4 in her you probably don't split too much with the auxillary. More for a selection of ranges and just run the 13. A lot of over lap gears I would imagine.
Your videos are awesome! Thank you. Would be cool to see your CB radio collection as a video sometime. I know if you're into big rigs you like CB too!
Every ending to these auction videos I keep expecting you to go whoops 🤭 here we go again 😂
Oh and I just got a tablet....never seen my favorite you tube channel on anything bigger than a cell phone..bigger is better...😁.(that's what she said moment).couldn't get any better then this...
Great aoc moment
Weird to see dump trucks (gravel trucks) with sleepers
Good morning Sir SALUTE 🇺🇸🇨🇦...I just couldn't go on with out acknowledging that cherry ford....man there's nothing I love more then Pete's and KW'S other then the ole Ford's..boy what a definite treat👍🤘thank you true...now back to twinsticks garage

You have nothing to worry about with painting your trucks yourself. If you take all of the proper steps with preparation and read the labels and instructions on all of the pain supplies you will not have a problem. I painted my first vehicle when I was 16 years old, I never had money to pay people to do work so when I wanted something done I had to to do it. The first vehicle I painted ended up being a cover truck in mini trucking magazine. Just follow instructions with products and read and learn whatever you can and talk to people and you can have a beautiful paint job for under a $1000.
so cool
Love the AOC clip lol
love your cut scenes
The first Mack bulldog was carved out of a bar of soap little trivia for ya
Chicken Lights and chrome well I am heading home, you can see us coming from a million miles away🎵🎵🎵🎵
5:24 it is same steering weel and controls as the case 9250 tractor '91/'92. When things were done with quality
In Australia we call that auxiliary trans a joey box and they are pretty common on heavy haul trucks in air shift.
The interior of that dodge is out of this world. Also it was odd for the 88 kw c500 to have the old style cab. Never seen that.
I’d love a rig like that big tundra buggy for off-road wild country camping.
Love the maple leaf
Very good
Squirrel...hilarious... I think the door slam on the auto Mack was more than appropriate 😅. Should be your Automatic ahhh nevermind trademark response lol
That day cap Pete was a deal ❤️ should have purchased it!!
Cool..................Really enjoyed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍😉
Last time I was there my wallet fell out in a skid steer I dropped off as they were closing. I had to beg them to let me back in to get it lol
I'm in the UK but I loved the Slapshot reference.
Hey mark, thanks for a great video on the 27th of may. I live in small city in Pennsylvania and we dont have any of those richie's bros auctions.. so it great when you show all that GREAT OLD IRON.. just love those old and semi old trucks...you made my Thursday great..2 big thumbs up.. love the channel and all the videos..keep up the great work.. cant wait to see snowman done... thanks again mark,, KRIPES FROM PA....if you have any old peterbilt emblems or stickers would love to buy them...let me know. Thanks again....TWINSTICKS RULE
Cool automatic thing here, We got a guy out close to where i am with a brand spankin new 389, DEF Delete, has a Manual Valve Body on an Auto with a 3 speed aux coming off a 12 speed paccar. So it can't shift itself no matter the condition and you got this big ol stick, you just throw back and forth with a 3 speed aux airbox shifter beside you on the floor, i thought it was the coolest damn thing.
i´d love to see the 184 Cabover as a Camperconversion ^^ XD
