My career as a full time freelance auto journalist for car magazines (6,000 plus magazine articles and 20 books) centers around my three columns, called "Rare Finds," (barn finds) that I began writing monthly since 1991 in 5 different magazines (Hot Rod Mustang, followed by Mustang Monthly), Vette, Muscle Car Review, Mopar Muscle, and most recently Hot Rod Magazine.. I've written over 800 barn find stories, and now dozens on KZread. I encourage viewers to email or call me with leads on car discoveries. I travel in the United States and internationally. If a person owns a barn find, I can help them find a buyer and get their car appraised at its true value for a sale. See how I do this in my latest videos, such as the 1967 Shelby GT-400 barn find in Iowa. My email is [email protected] and number is 806-236-3681.

    Very cool video, Jerry. My brother and I test drove a brand new Admiralty Blue 1974 Trans Am at Mike Salta Pontiac in Long Beach, Ca. in 1974. My brother wasn't able to make the finances work, so he ended up not getting it. Glad that Amanda gets to keep her fathers 74. We also wish her luck on her transplant. My now 33 year old daughter had a kidney transplant at Mayo on Christmas Eve, eve in 2016. She was on hemodialysis for about 5 years-as the peritoneal dialysis didn't work. She had a CVC (Central Venous catheter) and for the last two years, we (my wife and I) did the dialysis at home on the NXStage machine-as it's more gentle on the body and especially the heart. Speaking of the heart, my daughter also had a heart transplant in 1990 at the age of 5 1/2 months. That transplant was done at Loma Linda in California. We are grateful to both donors and their families-and we're good friends now with the family who donated the heart to my daughter. My daughter loves car related things and has accompanied me across the US to car shows like MCACN, where she says that she has "many adopted dads" in the car community. Car folks are the best. We wish nothing but the best for Amanda-and if she has any questions about transplantation/side effects of the meds/Mayo Scottsdale-we'd be happy to help. We also live 25 minutes away from Mayo. Let me know. Bruce

    That is someone with stupid money and fell in love with the color of the car and after that just closed his ear flaps about ALL THE THINGS THAT CAR NEEDS. Why bother to bring the expert if you’re not going to pay attention to what he’s saying? It’s a half put together 500KR with a bunch of parts that don’t even match parts that were replaced on the other side, the floors are rusted out and there are waaay too many parts missing or are from other year cars, no brakes and there is going to be frame rust in places where whoever did the body repair left off , pieces to keep water out or the side scoops that are missing half the bolts to hold them on and how about what looks like a leaking rear main seal in the back of the engine which is why there was so much oil on everything from the back of the oil pan to the transmission. If the buyer wants to get this car so that it’s worth something if he wants to sell it will have two choices, find someone that is blind because it’s a pretty blue or he will have to spend more money than he paid for the car to correct the myriad of problems that are wrong with it.

    I’m not a Ford guy but I like my Mopars and there is a guy with a utube channel called uncle Tony’s garage and he seemingly knows what and where everything about 60’s through mid 70 Mopars should and should NOT have and he knows all the secrets places to find all the vin numbers and what body style had for any options and where they should be and so on . This Ford guy is the same way and you’re not going to sneak ANYTHING by him if someone is trying to sell anything from a barm find to a so called rotisserie rebuild. It’s too bad that there are not more honest people out there like these guys that someone could hire to go over and through any muscle cars from that era to tell you if the car is legit or if’s a poorly pieced together Frankenstein car with a nice paint job. This guy really knows his stuff and is a joy to watch him work.

    Something may become mute. In other words, unable to make sounds. When something, usually a point of argument, becomes irrelevant, it becomes MOOT. In other words, the expression is "becomes moot" not "becomes mute". Its not rocket surgery.

    I'll never understand these car hoarders that would rather ruin their property and allow a car to dissolve than sell them. What does having a car with a "I know what I got" attitude as the thing becomes a piece of junk do for them? Dude is NEVER going to do anything to or with these old cars, like the GTO...why in the world keep it as it becomes a rust pile and worthless? Hoarder mentality.
