While out metal detecting and exploring I discovered this awesome old Navy ambulance stashed away and forgotten in a backfield. I think it is one of the coolest things I have ever seen and the only thing I have coveted in many a year. I am not a collector of old cars but know many people look for and search for old cars found in barns and old cars found forgotten in woods and fields. If ol' Ms. Amber Lamps ever decides to sell this awesome old car I found, I shall be her huckleberry.
We also get to detect in a field of somewhat scary Texas longhorn cattle. We find some awesome coins near this old 1700's farmhouse house and I find some interesting artifacts as well to include what may be at least one Civil War relic. Come for the military vehicle, but stay for the Texas longhorns.

Many years ago I read in Hemmings Motor news that the Packard ambulance was the rarest of Packards, only about a handful were made and even a car in that shape would be viable for restoration if it's as rare as I heard it was and that is easy to check out

Hi Chigg: car is a 1953 Packard ...maybe.stick or automatic. Can have manual or hydraulic power windows. Power brake and steering. Straight 8 engine,. 6 volt battery / system. Maybe wonder bar radio with pushbuttons made by Delco. Have to replace all the old cloth wiring. Rebuid and clean everything . Top looks iffy..floors ? Seat ,door and headliner fabrics and padding. May have to buy a doner sedan car. EPA has been knocking out chrome shops..for decent pieces. Because it's sat outside..may be terminal..or parts. Very neat ride ...but will have to spend 20-30 thousand to do it right. Love your videos Chigg!

The little hole in the top of the spigot is for making a temporary water fountain - or bubbler. Put a fingertip in the regular spout hole to stop the stream, and the stream will pop up out of the hole so you can get a drink! 😺 I WANT IT TOO! 😆 Really cool Navy ambulance! They should get it off the ground, though. It's getting eaten by the weeds... Sinking into the soil...

@teenapittman4241 4 года назад

Water fountain spout. The hole had a button in it. About 6 months ago, I gave a 1951 Packard Patrician/400 w/Ultramatic transmission and a flat straight 8, to my brother-in-law, who has a bodyshop. It had been parked 15 or so years and someone stole the radiator and it was rapidly deteriorating. I drove it for several years in the late 90's-early 2000's. It needed brakes and the backseat reupholstered when I parked it in the barn. None of the glass was broken and it had all its knobs, handles, hubcaps, fender skirts, sun visor, ashtrays, and lighters. The paint job, dark green was in decent shape The plastic light covers were cracking and breaking. It was getting rust holes along the bottom and the door springs were springing? sprunging?. The glass was starting to craze. It had the Cormorant hood ornament and you cranked it by patting the accelerator. I couldn't bear to watch it rust down. So I gave it to somebody that would fix it. It drove like a tank. You had better start turning or stopping before you needed to! But it rode like you were sitting on your couch in the living room watching the world go by. The back seat was even better riding than the front. One of my favorite cars ever.

@W1se0ldg33zer 4 года назад

Usually what happens is the whole bottom of cars that have sat on the ground for decades will be completely rusted out. That one is probably not restorable back to its original condition without spending more that it'd be worth. One in running condition is about 8 thousand dollars. Which is probably why it's still sitting there.

@r.j.lombardi111 4 года назад

Too bad that the old well is contaminated (septic tank is near). As a former Architect trainee, I'd say that the house is not well connected with the porch. The house is "dragging" the heavier part of the porch with it, while the one that is not connected (the concrete broke, perhaps the reinforcing bars, if there are any are broken too, or have rotted away due to the moisture). I could draw you a sketch drawing of it if you want to. Also that car is lovely if only it could be restored ...
