    That visor and those skirts are probably worth something if you can identify what they fit.

    Yeah I had thought about the skirts but I'm not sure if I'll be able to ID them. I got a truck load out of there today. I was hoping someone would able to ID a handful of the most valuable wheels and maybe a few other items. Theirs more wheel and other stuff but I already had alot of photos.

    You could tell the fellow that it turns out a lot of the wheels will fetch $10 or less, so how about paying twice as much as the s**** man.
    Even a fender skirt for a 1967 Coronet might not be a big seller.

    But I'm interested in the 1983 ****** rim.

    Sorry I didn't mean to offend anyone. I'm just young into the vintage car scene. A lot of guys my age are into video games , social media and pretty much doing nothing . Im excited about my finds and thought I would share some of it with you and of course trying to pick your all's brains on some of these items. Like I said before a lot of knowledge on here. I'm not trying to sell anything on here. I work a 40 hour a week job but in my spare time this is what I like to do. I find that I can't even hardly sleep at night before a pick the next day. I guess Ive said enough. Also as far as the fender skirts the guy was commenting on( Im not saying he was being negative towards me)- I bought everything as a truckload I basically have less than a dollar a piece in them. The 65 Chevelle fender skirts that was in the bunch sale online for $250. My problem is I don't hardly want to sell anything. Thanks, Ron

    In pic #6, the steering wheel on the column and steering box in the foreground is '46-48 Ford and probably has some value. Also, there's a pair of radius rods standing up to the left of them that are also '46-48 Ford. In another post, you showed steering wheels on the wall. The early two and three spoke steering wheels may have some value also if you could snag them for the right price. All of these seem like better deals to be had than 90% of the wheels you pictured. I'd snag that stuff and the '50's hubcaps, then research what they are and list appropriately. Great way to learn about early cars also, by getting hands on with the stuff. Good luck!

    Yeah those fenders are a no brainer too for the right price of course. Only issue there is they might be a little more work to flip than the small stuff, they just don't travel as easily.

    Ouch!

    Let's give him the benefit of the doubt, and it is interesting to see the stuff.

    I've never known someone to continually buy so much stuff and not know what any of it is. Who does that?
    It's behavior that could get you into all kinds of trouble in some parts of town.

    Yeah I know what a lot of the stuff is and I do ask for opinions on some of the older stuff and yes I do sell some stuff. Maybe 20% of what I buy. If I didnt sell anything I wouldn't be able to continuously buy. In my neck of the woods a lot of people that inherit alot of old car parts or less than desirable cars are either s****ping it all or selling it really cheap. The younger crowd is just not interested. I've been buying for about 4 years now and will continue to buy until I cant find anymore. I have a 30x40 building full- downstairs and upstairs. I hope to have 10 times that when I get more towards Retirement. I've got a 59 Impala, 49 Olds convertible, 65 chevelle and a few others. They need lots of work but this is what I love. Its like Beanscoot said some people may find it interesting to see the stuff. Some people can no longer get out and dig for stuff. Weather old age has caught up with them or they just dont have alot of places to look for stuff. Thank, Ron

    Some of the stuff I've drug out of those buildings lately. Except for that table top of stuff. I've still got to sort thru all that

    I rather like looking at the "old junk." Besides that there are prople here that can probably use it or know someone looking for some of it. If you don't like the "Pickers" asking then don't open the "What is it worth?" posts.

    What a shame it would be for some people to throw all this away. I got all this a while back out of 2 boxes that was in the throw away pile

    I enjoy pictures such as your last post. It is quite a game to see if I can identify all of the random parts.

    that headlite lens in the center looks to be from a 39 Plymouth. Hard to find at times.

    KH made wheels for Willys both 5 and 4 lug. A NOS Willys Wheel 5 on 5.5" with a 4.28 center hole would bring North of $100 the repops are $125. So just because something isn't GM or FORD/MOPAR doesn't mean its isn't highly sought after and valuable.

    I think that recently pictured stuff is more like swap meet fodder than for Internet selling, especially considering shipping costs.

    Good on you, young fellow. I'm glad to see someone finding stuff like that. Maybe what you've found isn't interesting to some on here but it's nice to see that there are finds still out there. The fact that you're willing to spend the time and effort to look for it says a lot about your character. Thanks for showing us what you found.

    The green hood is 32 Ford. A little bent, but worth a couple hundred.
