so earlier today I bought a 1925
chris-craft it's wooden speed boat that
does get it yeah
I mean it's pretty smooth ride Spencer
is taking me and Chum off the beaten
path to some great picking spots along
the water his buddy Bob's is the final
stop of the day and I hope you saved the
best for last
let me tell you what we got is that what
I think it is can I
sure cool hey so I'm thinking this might
be a Ford Model 8 that would be worth a
good chunk of money just by looking at
it wreck that thing has not been aged or
faked anyway just scream something from
the first world war if you're interested
it is for sale how much you want for
this thing would 500 to work for you 500
bucks for something you're not sure
about do you really need to have someone
come take a look at that before you buy
it
take it from someone who's made one or
two mistakes those mistakes were always
with my money so if I can't get an
expert out onto an island in the middle
of nowhere I'll tell you what I'm gonna
do since up from Las Vegas I will
straight up do some gambling and buy it
off you for 500 bucks the way I look at
it if it turns out to be what I hope it
is I'll make a whole lot of money off it
and if it runs between this and Chum
that'll be really expensive truck okay
deal 500 bucks we got a deal
I made almost 950 dollars today and so I
think it's a great day all right let's
go outside I got a little sunlight okay
oh yeah let's get out of here know that
I can drive the boat home it's my boat
and I decide who drives the World War 1
helmet is a great item and Rick has
totally made the right choice at buying
at 500 bucks I'll tell you what if it is
real it is a knock out of the park for
the guys at the shop
when Chum and I got back to Detroit with
the world war 1 Ford Model a helmet I
sent it to my buddy Alex he knows
everything there is to know about world
war 1 antiques not a hunch I spent five
hundred bucks on this thing and
hopefully my gamble is really gonna pay
off hey ray hey what's up here where'd
you get this we got it with a guy
selling some stuff ABS garage well it's
a great find let me give you a little
background on this
so essentially what it is is a u.s.
World War one experimental steel combat
helmet that was designed by a man named
dr. Dean Bradford and she was actually
the curator of the Metropolitan Museum
in New York and he began their
world-famous now arms and armor
collection so what do you think it's
worth the shell is beautiful it is
really well preserved to maintain you
got most of the original chinstrap
usually those are wake on it's a really
special element so collectors are always
looking for these so if this were mine I
would try to sell this for at least
$4,000 damn how much you pay paid 500
bucks for it you're gonna make a great
profit on it it's a really special
helmet you're welcome for coming along
and helping give me like some part-time
help or anything like that every - it is
oh I always have Bruford shop thanks
Alex now ship it back so I can make some
money on it
