We just drove 2 hrs to look at a 'Rust Free' 1950 Ford Consul

We just drove two hours to check out this 1950 Ford Consul that's priced fairly reasonable. The ad says it's stripped to bare metal, no rust, ready to restore, excellent motor, needs interior.

Chad you’re a good man. Most people would’ve made several comments you really didn’t have much bad to say that shows good character I love watching your show

[Tjones]

That's part of the car hobby, going to look at "rust free" and coming home empty handed cause of rust issues. Always a chance when it comes to old school metal 👍

[ApexWoodworks]

I'm a woodworker, Chad and I can't tell you how many machines I've seen advertised as "like new" that disappointed me when I came and looked at them. People will say anything these days. "Let the buyer beware" is always the best advice.

Been there done that Chad, Drove 6 hrs to pick up a 80's AMC 4x4 Concord woody wagon " rust free" runs and drives, oh ya the seat was falling through the floor as it sat in a small damp garage . Moss in and out of her ! The fellow was so upset that I didn't buy it as he said I told him it was a done deal, lol and said he drove 5 hrs from the other way as it was his grandpa's and hadn't seen it for awhile, ya I was pissed too .

[tonymosca]

Chad has so many projects in his head. It is amazing he comes up with cool ideas for all of them!

[buckhondo]

So many times with the classic cars people like to misrepresent them. Then when you show up they act like they had no idea. Like they aren’t the one who owns it and never saw the rust or holes or license plates glued over the holes. And they always have a buyer that is ready to pay more than what you are. But they will come down a couple bucks for you. Interesting game we play with the cars!!!

Another great episode from Chad and Jolene! Thanks you two!

[mileskruse]

thanks for taking us with on your drive

[NeilIrving]

Living in the UK I used to see a few of them knocking around, my dad served his apprenticeship in a Ford dealership and worked on them when they were nearly new 😊

[barriecollins]

Hi Chad and jolene I don't think you will get a car from the 50s without any rust holes in it unless it's all been repaired before but then you'll have to pay some good money for it. Keep up the great work the both of you 👍 👏

[johnnydanger]

That sucks, I think all of us have been through "misrepresented" things for sale at some point. "No rust" usually means in the areas where the holes in the metal are, there is no rust...😉

[darrelldavis]

Keep on doing what you are doing Chad and Jolene!

[David_Walker--]

You would be really lucky to find a Mk1 in the UK that nice at that price these days. I would have bought it.

[kwikslvr]

Sweet...I just finished my 51!! Great car to customize.

[jimcoplan]

Another interesting road trip today. Chad and Jolene checking out another car.

OK off topic Chad. I keep thinking about that shaker scoop on ol Elvis. I really like the look of it coming up thru the louvered panel with the 1/4 or so gap better then having weilded on it. But it's a lot of time and trial and error to get it spaced right, then hope the engine movement does not cause it to rub at times. Since you cant see the engine anyway, I think if a man was to mount the front to the cross brace with a bolted bracket and pin the back the firewall on both sides it would match the rest of the build, be off the engine, yet look like it was separate, coming thru and part of it. OR put some brackets on each side and front down under and weild them to the louvered pannel underneath which would do the same thing. Either would give the appearance of it coming off the engine, simplifying the build and keeping the spacing around the edge perfect. I've changed from, setting it on the panel, attaching to the engine and now attaching it to the panel with the same look as attached to the engine. Cant wait to see how you do it either way! 😁

[crittercraig]

Great choice Chad and Jolene and Fina
At least you know how to check out stuff and know exactly what it needs to be done to get what your picture of it is. That was a fair offer for what he had. Unless there was a couple of soild gold bolts you couldn't see? Ha Ha Hope you two had a safe trip. Always be safe in your travels and Take Care

[bizeerog]

Oh man brings back memories of driving for hours to look at a "rust free vehicles". One was so rusty I could see holes in the rockers as I was driving up the driveway lol..

[shawnslaunwhite]

I enjoy the picking videos, Chad you are fair and kind!

[fromthebeginningofvankind]

I recently was looking at a 53 consul runner/driver. It really was relatively "rust free". It was a cool little car for a vintage 4 banger, and the fact that it had "trafficators" was way cool. I ended up walking away from it though because of parts availability. Because when you need say a wiper motor or a wheel cylinder you need it not o crap lets go see if someone happens to have one . Any way cool video I like your "on the hunt" video's just as much as your "in the shop" video's looking forward to your next one.
