In this episode of Hagerty, the guys pay a visit to Mick Lynch, a man with an impressive collection of classic cars. Mick has a unique offer for them: they can choose any car from his collection and drive it home, but there's a catch - they have to find the right key. It's like a treasure hunt for car enthusiasts, and it's got the team excited.
Their eyes are immediately drawn to a modified 1948 Chrysler Commodore pickup. Mick explains that it was originally a four-door sedan, but they transformed it into a pickup because Hudson stopped making pickups in 1947. The car served as Mick's shop vehicle until 1994, and it's got some interesting features like an aluminum head and a 308 engine. They're fascinated by the history and the story behind this unique car.
As they continue exploring Mick's collection, they come across a variety of other cars, including a Hudson Hornet, a 1955 Chevy, a stock car, a 1961 Chrysler 300G, a Dodge Lancer, and a 1960 Dodge Suburban. Mick shares interesting details about each car, such as the racing legacy of the stock car and the powerful engine of the Chrysler 300G. They're particularly drawn to the Hudson Hornet, a car they've never driven before. Mick lets them take it for a spin, and they're blown away by its torque and smoothness.
Throughout the video, Mick's passion for these cars is evident. He plans to preserve and restore some of them, while others he wants to keep in their original condition. It's clear that Mick has a deep appreciation for the history and craftsmanship of these classic cars, and it's infectious. The team is captivated by his collection and can't help but admire his dedication to preserving these automotive treasures.
