On Saturday, September 7, the reality TV star gave fans a closer look at all the details of the maroon car that has only ever been owned by one family.
HOT WHEELS
Robbie highlighted several vintage decal stickers still stuck on the car’s windows before cutting to a video of him cleaning up two Lee Tire signs for sale.
“They’re also dated the 1940s, everything for sale,” he wrote.
The clip was set to an instrumental version of Guitar Tribute Players’ song Beautiful Things.
Robbie’s followers praised his latest acquisition in the comments section, with one person writing, “The window decals really make the car. What a time machine!”
Another comment read, “Priceless time capsule.”
A third person added, “Beautiful, I love the color,”
“Yeah man, cruising to heaven,” a fourth user commented.
Replying to a fan inquiry about the sale price, Robbie confirmed the car and the tires were going for $16,000.
RARE FINDS
His post comes days after the History Channel star revealed on his Instagram account that he had purchased a vintage hood ornament for nearly $2,000.
On Friday, Robbie posted a video flaunting his 1926 green Studebaker car while showing off two of its hood ornaments.
One of them, a silver and red airplane, was already fastened to the front of the vehicle.
Robbie confirmed on social media last month that all new episodes of American Pickers will be released on October 15 .
On Instagram, he posted a photo of himself sitting with crew members on the porch of a rustic cabin, with the caption, “Filming another season of American Pickers.”
He revealed the release date before adding, “See you soon.”
