Welcome to another Inwheel Time podcast , a 30 minute mini version of the Inwheel Time car show that airs live every Saturday morning 8 to 11am . It's the Inwheel Time car talk show Veterans Day edition 2023 . Coming up special segment with interesting stories and Jeff's going to bring us car batteries . Worst to best . Later we'll look at the automotive news headlines this week . Howdy along the bike out of this world , Mars King Conrad DeLong . We always need more . Jeff Seekin . I'm Don Armstrong , glad you could join us on this rainy , cool , ugly , yes , kind of weekend . You know we have not had a weekend like this , I don't think , since the beginning of the year , and here we are in November .

Speaker 3 0:49

I almost came to work today in my jammies .

Speaker 1 0:53

Yeah , the ones with your flannel jammies , with the ones with the shoes in them .

Speaker 3 0:57

Yeah , and a little flap in the back . Flap in the back , Well , I wear mine in the front .

Speaker 1 1:01

You would . So we don't have a guest this hour , but you're going to be entertained anyway .

Speaker 3 1:07

We're going to make sure of it .

Speaker 1 1:09

So we have this thing that we've gotten into by default . I think Hemmings puts out a thing on Mondays called the sold cars roundup and you know you can sell your car on Hemmings . Most of some of them are custom , some of them are just regular everyday cars and other ones are classics , I mean all over the board . You can buy a Model T there , a Model A . You can buy a 1968 AMC AMX Ooh , cool car . That would be the first one , a 1968 model that we're going to go with today . And these are all bid prices and some of them sell , some of them don't . The ones that we're going to deal with are the ones that sold . So what's sold online at Hemmingscom was a 1968 AMC AMX . Now , this was the hot rod version from American Motors . It didn't have a back seat .

Speaker 4 2:11

It was a Challenger , but it was shortened wheelbase .

Speaker 1 2:15

So what would your guess be , mr Mars , of how much the 1968 AMC AMX went for ? Now , before you give us your figure , let me explain to everybody that we don't know the condition of the car .

Speaker 4 2:29

We don't know if this is a 390 GO package . We don't know any of that .

Speaker 1 2:32

We don't know the details on it . I can tell you that it looks kind of like maroonish with some white stripes on it , and that's pretty much about it . It looks like it has factory wheels on it , but we don't know , it may be completely rusted underneath it . I don't know that . So we just this is just a fun thing that we do so . 68 AMC , amx . Mr Mars , what would you say ? That went 32,000? . Mars says 32 .

Speaker 4 2:56

I was going to go 32 . So I'll go 35 . I'll go 35 01 .

Speaker 3 3:07

Well all of you , probably six , grand right , 26,000 . Oh , 50 .

Speaker 4 3:14

Really , wow . Really less than way , less than I'd have thought Me too , Actually , because AMX to me is a pretty collectible car .

Speaker 1 3:23

It is because they didn't make that many of them in the overall scheme of things , and I didn't even know until I was an adult that the thing only had two seats in it . Here you go . Here's one for Jeff . All right , jeff's Cadillac guy . Here is a 1958 Cadillac 62 . Now it is a two door .

Speaker 4 3:49

It's a three zip code car .

Speaker 1 3:51

It's a three zip code car in two door fashion and it sold for Mr Mars . What would you guess be for a 58 Cadillac 62 ?

Speaker 5 4:04

21,000 .

Speaker 1 4:05

You need to move that microphone a little bit closer . I've got 25 . Okay so , 40 grand , 40 grand . Well , conrad's going to win this one . It sold for 27,825 and it looks to append .

Speaker 5 4:20

I would re-count .

Speaker 1 4:21

White with wide whites on it . It is beautiful .

Speaker 4 4:25

And you got to remember in you know , as GM was building cars , you know that 55 through 57s was all kind of common . The 58 year model of all of the GM brands was a one year only car and quad headlights , and they were massive , absolutely massive .

Speaker 1 4:45

Yeah , the steel bill alone was yeah .

Speaker 4 4:48

Yeah .

Speaker 1 4:48

The chrome bill you know that chrome and they stamped him in the plant . And let's not forget , they have some whopping Dagmars out in front , dagmars are awesome . Yeah , this one had the black rubber bumper . Oh , yeah .

Speaker 4 5:01

Rubber baby buggy bumpers .

Speaker 3 5:03

Yeah , that one Pastey daggers .

Speaker 1 5:04

Speaker 4 5:47

No Mars . We're going to need a 7500 and Mars would have won . He was 7500 . Okay , well , whatever the case may , be 2000 Celine Mustang .

Speaker 1 5:59

It's called an S 281 for whatever reason , but it's a 2000 model , the 281 is . The number no 281 is the model is the model and it is a convertible . Okay , it's yellow convertible .

Speaker 4 6:12

This is a Randy Weldon car . It's a Randy Weldon car . You missed one .

Speaker 1 6:15

So , mars , what would your guess be on a 2000 Steve Celine S 281 Mustang ?

Speaker 5 6:23

I'm going to go . 17,000 Conrad , I'll go 20 , 22 .

Speaker 1 6:29

Conrad wins again . 21,000 is what it sold for All right , mars , this is right up your alley . Oh boy , new York ville in 1987 . Chevrolet C 10 . 87 square body . It's a sharp looking truck , black , got a custom grill on it . Looks like it's got , you know , wheel trim rings on it . It's a single cab , I think that's all they made .

Speaker 3 6:55

Is there a in ?

Speaker 1 6:56

the back . Short bed or long bed ? It looks like a short bed . 87 Chevy C 10 . How much .

Speaker 5 7:02

Those things are pretty popular right now for some reason . What do you think it sold for ?

Speaker 4 7:06

Speaker 1 7:10

22 22 , jeff 19 12,600 dollars . Mars wins Well , close , but it's over .

Speaker 3 7:18

Okay , it's all right .

Speaker 1 7:21

Now I don't know which one , I'll go ahead and go ahead and take this one . This is right up my alley . A 1956 GMC city bus . Oh 56 GMC city bus . Now it looks like it was pulled out of the junkyard . It's straight , but it does have some patina on it . Looks like it hasn't been touched .

Speaker 4 7:47

You know , what patina is right . It's rust made sound pretty .

Speaker 1 7:53

So it's red and white , it looks good . I mean , what city ? It doesn't say what city ?

Speaker 3 8:00

Chicago got a lot of holes in it .

Speaker 1 8:02

No , it's not a northern bus because it would be all rusted up bad . 56 GMC city bus . How much did this include the turbo ?

Speaker 5 8:11

No , any of that I'm going to go for I'm going to go for grand , oh , 4500 .

Speaker 3 8:20

$8000 .

Speaker 1 8:23

Now I don't know if it runs or not , but they got the weeds cut down around it so it might they're going to pull it out . Here we go , jeff . No , I think this would be Conrad .

Speaker 4 8:33

Well , no , Jeff would win because 5500 . It's going to cost you $1000 to tow it somewhere , so you only net 4500 .

Speaker 1 8:42

It might take an 18-wheeler flatbed to get the thing out of there .

Speaker 2 8:45

Here's one 1934 Holden .

Speaker 1 8:48

I did not know that Holden made a pickup truck Holden .

Speaker 4 8:53

Holden , is it Australian ?

Speaker 3 8:54

Not a .

Speaker 4 8:54

Ute A real pickup truck . Is that an ?

Speaker 3 8:56

Australian vehicle yeah .

Speaker 1 8:58

Yes , but no , it's a real pickup truck with fenders on it A 1934 . Well , you know what that 34-ish looks like .

Speaker 5 9:06

I'll even show it to you I didn't even go to the Air Carps in Australia in 34 . There you go .

Speaker 1 9:10

Cool .

Speaker 3 9:11

It is nice .

Speaker 1 9:12

It's orange and black Halloween paint scheme there , all right . So a 1934 Holden pickup truck . What do you think that that would sell for ? It looks like it's been restored . It's really nice . Yeah , wire wheels on it , white , whites .

Speaker 5 9:26

I'd probably say 30 . 30 , okay , conrad , conrad got 35 .

Speaker 1 9:31

Really .

Speaker 3 9:31

I'm going to go 17 .

Speaker 1 9:33

Jeff is going to be the winner , even though he's over 16275 . I would buy that .

Speaker 5 9:39

I forget , but I don't know where you get that to get it into the country .

Speaker 1 9:42

Well , it's here in the country , obviously , if it's on Hemmings .

Speaker 5 9:45

Yeah , but I'm saying , though , to get it in , somebody had to somebody mail it over .

Speaker 4 9:49

All right In pieces , piece by piece . Speaking of Ford , slowly I turn pickup .

Speaker 1 9:53

Try , that's it A 1951 Ford F3 . Looks like it's been fully restored . 51 Ford F3 stock Okay , so that would have probably a straight six in it , my guess , okay 51 Ford F3 and F3 .

Speaker 5 10:14

I don't know . It's going to be a one ton , huh Well , I don't know .

Speaker 1 10:18

It looks like a regular F1 , which is a half ton pickup truck . So , at any rate , what would you think that that's sold for ? Look stock . It looks like it's been refurbed 14,000 , maybe 14 .

Speaker 5 10:31

I'm going to go 20 .

Speaker 1 10:32

20 , 12 . 12 . 15 , 750 . I think that that's pretty good . See , I'd buy something like that . Mars wins again Mars .

Speaker 4 10:40

Europe by three Wow .

Speaker 1 10:42

Okay , this is a really cool car caught my attention . It's a 1971 Ford LTD convertible .

Speaker 3 10:52

Oh no , police package or anything , I don't know .

Speaker 5 10:54

Not a convertible .

Speaker 4 10:57

Seven liter .

Speaker 3 11:00

Speaker 5 11:15

I'm going to go $6,500 .

Speaker 1 11:17

$6,500 . Mr 75 . 75 . Four grand , four grand . Conrad hit it right on the nose . Oh boy , $7,500 .

Speaker 3 11:25

Just because it's a white convertible . He's been in the back of those many times , he knows .

Speaker 4 11:30

Yeah , with my handcuffed behind me Okay .

Speaker 1 11:34

Here are a couple of model . Oh my gosh .

Speaker 4 11:36

Pulling things out of my pocket to drop under the seat .

Speaker 1 11:39

One is a 1929 Ford model , a beautiful car , convertible . It looks like it's been fully . Both of these cars look like they've been fully restored . Now what would you expect ? A 1929 Ford model a ? Just restored to original or looks at both of these . No , both of these look like their originals .

Speaker 5 12:03

I'm going to go 16,012 . 10 .

Speaker 1 12:08

Well , you all are close . 14,963 is what it sold for . I'll take that one , and part of the reason that I was interested in this because it just shows that for not a whole lot of money you could get in the whatever car class that you wanted to get in , and if you think it's cool , it's even better because you're spending the money on something you want .

Speaker 1 12:30

Yeah , the next one is a 31 model a . It too is a convertible . It's got beige wheels , wide whites . It shows really nice . Well , it's a two tone , so it's a guy like a dark blue with black fenders .

Okay , it's , it's blue , it's got a blue vinyl top on it , white wall tires , nice hubcaps on it . It looks brand new .

Speaker 4 13:33

This is that generation , when they were doing like the Cartier edition .

Speaker 1 13:36

Yeah , but I don't know about that . But anyway , 1983 Lincoln MK six . What would you say that that would bring Mr Mars ? 14,006 grand 12 . Well , you're close , sold for $9,000 . No , honey , I can't put it under the Christmas tree , but it is in the driveway . Come check it out .

Speaker 4 14:59

Well , even beyond that , it's got to have you know they were offered with a 390 , but they were also offered with a 427 in 62 . Not in a four door , not right ?

Speaker 5 15:11

Yeah , probably true , no that to be a 90 was some museum or something was after that , yeah , so collection .

Speaker 1 15:18

All right , now we're going to move in Somebody with more dollars than cents . We're going to hop in a different direction now . 1982 Volkswagen Rabbit . Oh yeah , rabbit A rabbit .

Speaker 1 17:15

Well , Dave Kendrick is a huge Volkswagen Vogue fan .

Yep , and there are all sorts of hot rotting kits for that motor .

Speaker 4 17:29

Well , we had the VW Drag guy on last week .

Speaker 1 17:32

We get you in touch with him and he'd steer you in the right direction , whether you were going to hot rod it or just hot rod it for the street . Build a wheel standard . No , I wouldn't want to go that far .

Speaker 4 17:41

No , no , but that's I mean . You could you could yes you could put out that kind of power .

Speaker 3 17:45

I'm in favor of the sleeper .

Speaker 4 17:46

No , no no , I would not do that , I would do ?

Speaker 4 17:54

Is that what it's called ?

Speaker 1 17:55

Stinger , I would do the headers with the standard looking dual exhaust out of the back and just smoke everybody on the street with that thing .

Speaker 4 18:06

That's what I'd do . Well , you got to remember , some of the early ones didn't have 60 horsepower , correct , you know . And then the later ones , you know , and I , you know I think the guy last week was talking about you can get up to 400 horsepower out of one of those .

Technically , laura had my Camaro and then she got . She saved her money to get the Mazda three Gotcha .

Speaker 4 20:39

But I wanted to put some iron around that girl .

Speaker 1 20:42

Well , you know it's funny because everybody thinks oh , you bought her a new car . Well , you know how much that new car was $7,000 at the time . Yeah , it was a stripper , it was a .

Speaker 5 20:51

Same car costs just $7,000 today Probably .

Speaker 1 20:55

Yeah , I put you could only get it probably $1,000 for a trade in , or so oh yeah , and it had a clutch problem and they fixed it under warranty and it has not had a problem since I'll be there Really of any kind , other than I think that she mashed every single fender on it throughout the years . Well , denver Area .

Speaker 3 21:15

No , no , no , no , no no not , not , not as an adult .

Speaker 1 21:18

This is all in her teens years . That's why I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the car . She was going to St Agnes , yep , oh yeah , st Agnes , and actually it was just St Agnes where she Well , the devil made me do it it mashed every fender on it .

Speaker 3 21:35

Oh well , okay , we got headlines and we can .

Speaker 1 21:38

We can do headlines , let's do some , let's do some . Recalls Every portion , every portion . 9 , 11 known demand from the 22 model year to 24 being recalled . Seat mounted airbag may deploy unnecessarily that's care the poop , any of it would seat belt assembly inaccessible for the Jeep grand wagon here and wagon here , for how do you build one that's inaccessible ?

Low brake fluid warning and operative on the Ford Mustang 2020 through 2023 . Randy and the Toyota RAV4 2013 to 2018 . Unsecured battery may cause a short circuit .

Speaker 3 23:47

I think we went over that in a thermal event .

Speaker 1 23:50

Thermal event that one Retail demand for new vehicles is cooling along with the temperatures outside in the wake of high interest rates and elevated prices , even as inventories and incentives abound .

Speaker 4 24:04

I think the interest rates is the biggest driver of that .

Speaker 1 24:06

Yeah , I think you're right . Sales dropped 5.2% at Ford , snapping a streak of 10 monthly gains , as the six week UAW strike against the Detroit three impacted output of key name plates such as the Ranger and Bronco . Volume also felled at Mazda for the first time in a year , with light car and light truck sales both lower cox and higher cox . Remember , carlos , why I called him go , son . I think it's going .
