Travis: YOU KNOW WHAT'S FUNNY?
IN ABOUT 30 YEARS,
THERE'S GONNA BE TWO OTHER YOUNG GUYS
COMING OUT TO OUR [BLEEP] -YEAH.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN.
GOING, "HEY, MAN,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT OLD DODGE OUT THERE?"
-IT'S GONNA BE OUR KIDS. -I KNOW.
THEY'RE GONNA BE, LIKE, GOING THROUGH ALL OUR [BLEEP]
WELL, LUCKILY, BOTH OUR SONS...
ARE FROM SMALLER TOWNS AND THEY LOVE THIS STUFF.
SO THEY WOULDN'T SELL IT OFF AND...YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
THAT'S TRUE.
♪♪
WE'RE HEADED TO SANDY VALLEY --
A LITTLE TOWN, BEEN AROUND SINCE THE 1800s,
LOTS OF MINING HISTORY.
THE PLACE THAT WE'RE GOING IS ACTUALLY
ONE OF THE ORIGINAL HOMESTEADS IN SANDY VALLEY,
LIKE THE FIRST ONE.
CAN YOU IMAGINE COMING UP OVER THIS MOUNTAIN IN A WAGON...
-NO. -...WITH A TEAM OF HORSES?
NO.
THE STORY IS, IS THE OLD GUY THAT OWNED THE PLACE,
HIS DAD WAS OUT THERE.
THEN HIS SON TOOK IT OVER.
WELL, HIS SON DIED HERE PROBABLY 10 YEARS AGO OR SO.
AND HE WAS PROBABLY IN HIS 80s OR WHATEVER.
HE PROBABLY REALISTICALLY
HASN'T MESSED IN THAT PLACE FOR 20, 30 YEARS,
AND THEN HE'S BEEN DEAD FOR 10.
SO THAT'S 40 YEARS FOR SURE,
NO ONE'S BEEN IN THERE.
IT'S JUST SITTING THERE.
-DUDE, I'M TELLING YOU... -WOW.
...IT LOOKS LIKE A BLAST FROM THE PAST
WHEN YOU WALK IN HERE.
I'M SERIOUS. IT IS SO COOL.
THIS IS INSANE.

Steve: WHAT UP, JOHN?
Johnny: HOW YOU DOING, STEVE?
HEY, JOHN. HOW YOU DOING?
-HOW YOU DOING, TRAVIS? -NICE TO MEET YOU.
Steve: LET'S GO CHECK THIS OUT.
THIS BUILDING'S AMAZING ALREADY.
-AH, I LOVE IT. -LOOK AT THIS.
Steve: LOOK AT THOSE OLD TIMBERS UP THERE.
YOU NEVER TOOK ME OUT HERE BEFORE?
HEY, DUDE, I TRIED. YOU WERE ALWAYS, "I'M BUSY."
I'M NEVER TOO BUSY FOR THIS.
THIS IS BEYOND COOL.
DIDN'T I TELL YOU THAT IT LOOKS LIKE
SOMEBODY WALKED OUT OF HERE 80 YEARS AGO
AND JUST SHUT THE DOOR?
YEAH, NO --
IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS A WORKING SHOP...
-PRETTY MUCH. -...AND IT JUST STOPPED, HUH?
YEAH, EVERYTHING STILL RUNS.
HIT A MOTOR AND IT'D START.
-REALLY? -YEAH, IT'S PRETTY COOL.
LET'S GO. LET'S GO DIG AROUND.
LET'S FIND SOME STUFF.
IS IT OKAY TO TOUCH SOME STUFF?
YEAH, GO AHEAD.
LIKE I SAID, JUST WATCH THE BUTTONS. THEY START.
[ LAUGHTER ]
-YEAH. -THIS OLD OVEN. OLD FREEZER.
CAN'T TELL YOU HOW COOL THIS [BLEEP] IS.
LIKE, THIS IS WHAT I LIVE FOR.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, HUH?
YOU KNOW WHAT? THOSE ARE SWEET.
LOOK AT THE FRICKING OWL [BLEEP] IN THAT ONE.
[ BOTH LAUGH ]
WE'LL SPIT-SHINE 'EM UP.
Travis: OH, YEAH. YEAH.
HOW ABOUT THIS OLD VISE, MAN?
IF WE CLEAN 'EM UP AND LUBE 'EM UP,
THEY'LL PROBABLY WORK.
SO MUCH COOL STUFF.
ISN'T IT BITCHIN'?
Travis: HEY, DUDE.
HOW MUCH MONEY DID YOU BRING?
WHY? WHAT DO YOU SEE?
OH, YEAH. YOU LIKE THAT SIGN?
UNION GASOLINE.
DUDE, I KNOW. I'VE BEEN EYEBALLING THAT.
THAT'S REAL PORCELAIN.
THE COOL THING ABOUT THIS SIGN IS IT'S A UNION OIL SIGN.
THEY CAME OUT IN ABOUT THE LATE 1800s, 1890s,
ABOUT THE TIME THESE GUYS WERE OUT HERE DRILLING HOLES
IN THE SIDE OF THESE MOUNTAINS.
OIL WAS A BIG DEAL BACK THEN.
YOU KNOW, ALL THESE MACHINES HAD TO RUN ON IT,
AND THEY HAD TRACTORS THAT WERE RUNNING ON IT.
SAYS "UNION OIL COMPANY OF NEVADA."
THAT'S REALLY COOL.
SO I'M THINKING THAT THIS SIGN IS PROBABLY A NATIVE SIGN.
I'M GONNA SAY THIS SIGN'S GOT TO BE PROBABLY
FROM THE '20s, '30s, SOMEWHERE AROUND THEN.
I MEAN, ANYTHING OLDER THAN THAT,
THEY REALLY DIDN'T DO A WHOLE LOT OF PORCELAIN,
SO I THINK THAT THIS SIGN DEFINITELY
IS SOMETHING FROM PROBABLY THE '20s OR '30s.
IT'S PRETTY COOL.
WE HAVE TO HAVE THIS.
I KNOW. THIS IS SWEET, HUH?
YOU THINK HE'D SELL THIS?
I'M GONNA SEE.
HEY, JOHN. WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR THIS SIGN?
ABOUT $150.
-I'LL TAKE IT FOR $150. -HELL YEAH.
[ METAL CLANGING ]
WATCH YOUR TOES, MAN.
AND IT'S DOUBLE-SIDED.
LOVE THAT.
YOU KNOW, THIS OLD UNION SIGN THAT I FOUND,
IT'S PRETTY COOL 'CAUSE IT'S A NEVADA SIGN.
IT'S PROBABLY FROM RIGHT OUT HERE SOMEWHERE,
WHICH MAKES THE SIGN, TO ME, MORE VALUABLE.
BUT I KNOW SOME COLLECTORS THAT WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THIS SIGN.
AND THEY'RE NEVADA COLLECTORS ONLY.
I CAN PROBABLY SELL THIS SIGN EASILY FOR $500
AND MAKE A $350 PROFIT.
BAM, MONEY IN MY POCKET AND OFF TO THE NEXT ONE.
YOU GOT SOME COOL STUFF IN THERE, JOHN.
I LOVE IT.
YEAH, I MEAN, IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM LIKE
WE GOT VERY MUCH STUFF.
THERE'S SO MUCH [BLEEP] LEFT IN THERE.
WELL, WE'RE COMING BACK.
