Cool my father in law is the second place they go to if you couldn't figure it out with all the VW's

 

[07TLX]

Yea, can't believe what he did in a good way

Were they really just driving around and found that place? Or did your father in law contact them.

No it was set up. I think his sister emailed them and told them what he had and they called him to get it all set up. When they got there they had him move the one VW to the front of the yard so they would see it as they were driving by.

Figured that. All these shows are setups. Including those storage auction ones.
Like really? "omg I bought this storage bin for $300 and there is a mint condition spider man #1 under this shirt" such horse ****.

that kinda bums me i thought it was a legit show...so much for freestyle pickin

 

[siracergrl]

I watched it. it was a cool episode. Your father-in-law has an awesome collection

 

[Gitrdone42]

Yeah I thought they might do some actual "freestyle" too. Also the guy he sent him to down the street was also set up. The building they looked in usually never has anyone there. But it was still kind of cool to see it all on tv.

Just giving an update, I talked to my father in law and he had a guy contact him after seeing the show from Oregon wanting to buy his van. The guy offered 8K and he said he still wanted to keep it and then he jumped straight to 10K. Hes going to let the guy sit for a while and see if he will go any higher. The guy was also willing to come here to pick it up. So I guess it's a good thing he turned down 5K.

good for him!!!...that things a pile,,,rare though

 

[webby]

like a vw bus?

 

[Gitrdone42]

Yeah the one they tried to buy on the show, the 23 window.
