The Possum Trot

Mon, Mar 21, 2011

While cruising through South Carolina, looking for leads, the guys call an old picking contact and soon find themselves in Bill’s main street hardware store. The family business has been operating since the 1880s and is filled to the rafters with century-old inventory. In the backwoods of Alabama, the guys are invited to the “Possum Trot” — a down-home country auction where the bidding is intense, and the guys try to auction a few of their items. Later, Ed’s Georgia property features a missile on the lawn, and building after building of awesome stuff. And, for the first time, he says he’s ready to part with a few of his treasures! Mike spies a must-have German leather pilot’s helmet and a rare ship’s compass. And after scoring an entire shelf of brand new vintage model car kits, Frank discovers the real challenge is getting a giant Victrola banner down from the rafters.
