In one, the duo are pumped as they head to an Alabama barn where the owner of a 1967 Shelby Mustang stored the vehicle.
Their excitement only increased when they arrived to see the vintage car, which Mike gushed was nearly “impossible to find,” given only 2,000 of them had been made.
The guests revealed they paid $3,700 for the car in 1983, though they hoped to sell it for a much higher price.
After further inspecting the vehicle and consulting with a vintage car expert, Mike and Jon discovered that restoring it would cost more than $100,000, which lessened the car’s value.
However, the owners were determined to make a hefty profit and revealed they rejected two previous offers of $75,000 – the same number that Mike was prepared to offer.
WORTH THE COST?
Ultimately, the owners refused to give up the car for that price, and the group went their separate ways.
Viewers were stunned by the exchange as they felt a $75,000 price tag for the car was more than reasonable.
“They better jump on the $75,000,” one fan suggested in the comments.
“Definitely worth saving but no way I’d pay 75k,” another remarked.
“Worth way more than 10k just not 75k,” weighed in a third.
Fans have been sharing their frustrations with the show a lot lately, as the ratings haven’t stayed consistent for some time.
Despite concerns about the show’s future, Mike, Jon, and Mike’s brother, Robbie Wolfe, 63, have been filming new episodes on the road.
Earlier this week, Robbie revealed when fans can finally expect the Season 26 premiere after a months-long break.
In his caption, he teased that they were taping new episodes ahead of the new season premiere on October 15.
Days before, Jon told fans that the group was filming for the show in the Midwest.
It was a relief for devoted fans who feared the long-running series might be nearing its end.
RETIREMENT TALK
A close pal of Mike’s previously revealed to The U.S. Sun that Mike and Robbie were considering retirement.
However, that doesn’t appear to be happening anytime soon, as The U.S. Sun exclusively reported in May that American Pickers was renewed for three more seasons .
The History Channel series originally starred Mike, Danielle Colby , 48, and Frank Fritz, 58.
Robbie joined the team in 2020 after Frank’s firing , and Jon signed on last year, seemingly in an effort to boost ratings.
