The Jalopy Journal
Went over and picked up the Dodge Coronet that I bought on an online auction. I haven't gotten around to opening the hood to check out the Hemi...
Indianola, Iowa, about an hour away from my farm. My wife is probably a little disappointed in me for buying this. I bought some other stuff...
Exactly why I bought this one, just so I can say I've owned one! I think the price is good, I watched a Hemi sell at an auction several years...

Been bidding on a 53 Dodge Coronet that's on an online auction. The part of it that interests me is that it's equipped with a 241 Hemi engine....
Thinking about this 54 Mercury convertible on an auction. It has no front clip or suspension. I told my brother about it but I thought it'd be...
Make sure they are the pointy toe boots.
Yes, it certainly did a great job moving that heavy Buick Electra. I surprised quite a few kids in Camaros with that. :) The biggest worry I...
I like the idea of an FE but I do have a Buick 455 and turbo 400 out of my 71 Electra that I have been thinking about dropping into one of the old...
I really like this 50 Oldsmobile. They were hard runners back in the day. This one is still running hard. I also like the 55 Chevy he is...
Wow! I should head for Oklahoma to buy my next tractor. I watched a nice 9N sell a few weeks ago not far from here for a little over 2 grand. I...
Years ago a girlfriend owned a 1st generation Comet 2 door. It had a 4 speed and nice chrome reverse wheels but under the hood was, to my...
Are you having internet problems? Not bad for a running and driving car.
1965 and 66 must have been good years for farming because my parents bought a new 4020 John Deere in 1965 and a new Mercury Colony Park station...
Never been a real big fan of the 3 on the tree even though I've owned a lot of them over the years. I wonder what the last year was they put them...
It sure looks like a 40 pickup to me. I got to know both of my grandpas. My Fraternal Grandpa died at the age of 61 when I was 3 1/2 but I still...
Were your Grandpa's from a big city? My son just married a girl from a big city. She just got her license at 24 years old a couple of months ago....
Only one of the several hundred was new. I bought that one when I was 18. Learned that I hated car payments with that one. Most of the several...
Several hundred.
Cool! Napping on the shady side of the car. :) Those Chevys of that era were good looking cars. There is a 32 Roadster that I drool over around here.
Is that antlers on the radiator? They were colorized when I got them.
A cousin recently emailed me some old family pictures including some that have been cleaned up and colorized. I wish I knew who has the picture...
I have most of the tools needed. Cutting out the pieces looks like the worst part of the process.
The 33 Ford 5 window coupe brought $14,000. That I can remember from editing the video. I was hazy on that before I went to all the work to edit...
Interesting, I wonder how many more tools this old geezer needs to buy to make an attempt at fabbing one of these up?
It was in the $40,000 range. I'll remember exactly what it brought when I edit the video I took in the next day or 2. I've done a lot of things...
I watched this Studebaker Golden Hawk sell the other day and it made me think back to when I could have bought one of those for not that much...
I took several hours of footage with my new 360 degree cameras mounted on my Pride Victory mobility scooter. So far I can only seem to get 180...
Yes it was $14,000 sold to buyer number 71. It was sold to somebody that was at the auction not an internet bidder. I'm not entirely sure I like...
I went to the Dean Paxson estate auction in Creston, Iowa to watch the cars sell. I don't get the opportunity to see a 1933 Ford 5 Window Coupe...
