MIKE WOLFE: See anything good? FRANK FRITZ: I don’t know. Looks like too many
satellite dishes right now. We are rolling large, man. Frankie and I are freestyling
and we’re looking for a place to rock up on. FRANK FRITZ: I think we
just keep on this road here. Oh, that looks like a good sign. “Pavement ends.” Ready? Yeah. Yeah. Gravel. What we live for, gravel roads. MIKE WOLFE: Those
roadside relics. Off the beaten path. MIKE WOLFE: Look at this. Dirt bike. FRANK FRITZ: Yeah, yeah, yeah. MIKE WOLFE: Oh, yeah. FRANK FRITZ: I think it
said for sale sign on it. MIKE WOLFE: If there’s
something for sale on the side of the road
and the place looks good, me and Frankie are
going to roll up on it. Hey, how’s it going? Hey, good. MIKE WOLFE: See
your “4 Sale” sign. NORM: Yeah? I just put it out. You did? You did? What is this? I think it’s a ’67. When we’re out
freestyling, you just never know what
kind of situation you’re going to come
in contact with. But from the moment we
stepped on Norm’s property, he made us feel right at home. We buy anything old, you know? We’re looking for
advertising pieces. We buy motorcycles. We really like American stuff. I don’t know if you’ve
got parts around. I’ve got my old
Ford tractor in there. We don’t do much
with tractors. I got an old car here. OK. Whoa. FRANK FRITZ: Oh,
yeah, here we go. MIKE WOLFE: Man. FRANK FRITZ: Norm,
forget the motorcycle. Forget the motorcycle. MIKE WOLFE: Dang. Norm, you’re holding out. FRANK FRITZ: You
were holding out. This is a real beauty. I’m talking muscle car here. Ford Fairlane, 1967,
390 GT, smoking hot. FRANK FRITZ: Wow,
and we’re pumped. Any time you can buy
anything from a mechanic, you know this guy’s treated
it like his little baby. ’67? NORM: ’67. I bought this back in ’73. It’s a 390 high-performance
GT, 4-speed car. Is this original paint? This is original paint. FRANK FRITZ: Original mags. NORM: Look at this. FRANK FRITZ: What do we got? MIKE WOLFE: Oh,
the 8-track player. Oh yeah, man. FRANK FRITZ: Yeah. MIKE WOLFE: Oh, yeah. Is the motor
completely original? NORM: The motor is complete
original, except the heads– OK. –are 428s. I put them on there brand new. FRANK FRITZ: With
the enlarged heads, it’s got a little bit more
oomph than the 335, huh? It’s probably got
another 25 horse. FRANK FRITZ: Ooh, that’s a lot. 25’s a lot. When he said the motor
was original in that car, I got really excited. But then, he said he
added horsepower to it. I was like, whoa, Frankie,
I got Fairlane fever. Get me an ice pack. What are you thinking
on this thing? I’m thinking about $8,000. Would you do
seven grand on it? Seven grand for the
car and the bike? No. No way on that? I’d go 75 for the
car and the bike. In situations like this, I’ve
got to remain level-headed. I’m having an emotional affair
with this car right now, but I cannot let that get
in the way of me making a good business decision. No, I don’t want to 75
for the car the bike. All right, let’s
forget about the bike, because the bike I think
we’re just too far apart on. I would do $7,000
just on the car. I’m practically
drooling at this point, but I’ve got to hold myself
back and stand my ground. You know, if you want to sell
it for that, I would do that. Yeah, let’s do it. MIKE WOLFE: Wanna do it?
All right, my man. FRANK FRITZ: All right.
– All right. Hand me those keys. There you go. Hand me those keys. Hand me those keys, Norm. All right. We were in the heat of the
moment there for a little bit. Norm had his poker face on, but
I think at the end of the day, we both got a good deal. You better check my temperature. I really do have
Fairlane fever now. FRANK FRITZ: Wow, you are on it.
– All right, buddy. FRANK FRITZ: Congratulations. You’ll make my savings
account happy, too. FRANK FRITZ: There you go. That oughta give
you a little boost. All right, man. FRANK FRITZ: Oh, we better
start making some phone calls now, get this thing outta here. All right, I’m gonna
shut this baby down. From what I paid
for that Fairlane, I’ve made a good
amount of money. I’m very pleased. Good to see you, Norm. Bye, Norm. All right, man. [LAUGHING] Man. We stopped for a motorcycle. Today is a good day. FRANK FRITZ: And you bought–
and you bought a Ford Fairlane. [MUSIC PLAYING]
Weird. That guy had his own camera crew when the guys approached the property.
Is that a hotrod?
Norm got screwed
Big Block 4spd GT? Prob a $35,000 car restored easy.
Original paint? The inside of the hood is yellow?
I thought Mike was gonna fight or something when he "loses his cool".
That car should be in my hands, not yours.
That car could of gone for more these guys are something else ripping off old folks
Mike didn't lose his cool in any capacity. The video title is a lie.
Whatever it is, it is done deal. Muscle car 1967. Luv muscle car. Original and strong car.
Did I see rust or bodywork on the rocker panels and rear fender? Wish we could see it once cleaned up.
I think they're just going to flip it, that's where the money is at. It's worth at least 10K to the right person. Easy money.
First air bag.
Now you just have to prey its a matching number car if not its worthless lol
Are you going to sell the fairlane? If so I'm interested
Thank you History Channel for posting these!
Wow another beautiful car
Fairlane fever you stole that car from that man
I donβt like how they make Frankie a nobody when he plays a major role!!!!! Mike brother Bobby is a piece of π©
I wanted to hear it start.
First stop..tire shop for some fresh rubber to burn off
This series is so scripted and is directed to people with a low I.Q. ππππππππ
I am still waiting for Mike to lose his Cool at lest someone to loose there cool I'm disappointed
I love the fact that some of these people are so old ,why hang on to things. Just sell it, you are not guaranteed to wake up tomorrow morning
Sears 8 track
mechanics will run a car till its held together by will power…never buy from a mechanic .unless you know where he lives
I personally sat in that car when they had it back to their shop in LeClaire Iowa. This was several years back. It was a complete rust bucket! Floor pans, trunk pan, lower quarters and fenders, all rust. Interior was destroyed too. They didn't do one thing with it and wanted 15k for it. The young woman that was working there at the time (not Danielle from the show) said she would do her best to let me meet Mike and Frank if I bought it. I looked at her and laughed. Thing was a pile!
Hi I'm Mike. You talk to Danielle on the phone? I'M FRANK!
This is highway robbery
Click bait
4:28 seconds of video, itβs over, and Iβm still waiting for him to lose his cool.
Original huh? This show is so bad, how is it still on.
We used to watch this show every episode untill you gave Frank a flash light and he started ''accidentially'' shining it into the camera. No
Come on Mike give Frank more space. Thank
EASILY Worth 15k. Ya Ripped the Old guy Off! Should've Had At LEAST The Decency to Give Him the $ 7500 He Came Down to!!!
8 grand for a rusty Fairlane. Those things might be legendary now but when they were current
the Pontiac GTO, Chevelle 396 and Plymouth Road Runners just about ran circles around them.
Let the bike go over 5 Bill's? What a dipdhit. The guy was obviously down to haggle.
Stay up to date on all of HISTORY's latest premieres at history.com/schedule
7 k…. I'd take that GT
Not original paint the under hood is yellow .
Clickbait!!!!
How staged was that?
Carpet baggers.
I'm not a ford guy but the 67 ford fairlane is a beautiful car.
….but don't go near my daughter.
Wonder if they still have that car?
Frank has got to stay away from knowing cars.(this one not so bad) One time asked if a 62 Corvette was a BIG BLOCK,, Which were never offered in a 62. Another time on Road Runner Says it's got a high raise manifold on it. It was an Carb spacer. My grandpappie once said, Keep you mouth shut and let people THINK you a fool. Instead of opening your mouth and removing all the doubt. Frank stay away from knowing any thing about cars
He was stupid lost a bike over $ 500.00
7000 you should have gave him ten thousand for the f**** thing
7k for rust buck
What a crock of s*** come to my house I have a bike parked in front just put it out
They didn't even start it
Your title is very deceiving!!! Losing is cool means he got upset. He got very happy.
These guys are nothing but a sham. History Channel needs to get better taste.
RIP off guys, so if they got it for 7ish you can count on it it will sell for 14… only pay half on all they buy…in other words get it for free
So he wouldn't pay 500 for the bike? What am i missing?
I like when frank tries to buy something and the the owner wants more money. So then frank tries to point out everything wrong with the object heβs trying to buy. Itβs so funny.
As they blow past what looks like a cool two stroke Yammy scrambler type.
Two of the biggest cockheads on tv
I had one of those in the 70s the underneath of the hood was the same color as the car was that was original Hood the Louver plates were made in it for the Chrome 390 plates outside I blowed mine up and got another one for parts I kept the two doors
I even slowed up the video and I did not find anywhere with Mike lost his cool.
