American Pickers: Best Of

Join Mike, Frank, Dani, and Rob on a rollicking ride through the weirdest and wackiest gadgets ever uncovered on their picking excursions. From the first pinball machine with flappers to a dangerously high voltage demonstration, this episode explores the eccentric and unearths some utterly unique machinery.

The odometer keeps rolling as the pickers crisscross the nation, burning rubber from one massive car collection to the next, hunting for the hottest horsepower on four wheels. Ride along as they rummage through rare rust, awe over original paint, and dicker their way through a highway of rusty gold.

Tick tock, the clock never stops. From the Midwest to the Southeast, the boys uncover timepiece gems in every corner of the USA. They dig up some 1950's automobilia clocks from an old moonshine farm and pick a sexy Airmaid Nylons stockings clock, adorned with the amusing tagline "Every hour of the day!"

When winter comes, the boys go...down south, y'all! On this southern extravaganza, the pickers are searching for rare car collectibles and colourful characters, and boy, are they successful! A 1934 Cabriolet, a 1967 Shelby Mustang, a 1950s Rocket 88 Engine, a 1974 Karmann Ghia, and more are all found in the barns, backyards, and backwoods of America's great southern states!
