Pickers drive a carrier

[D Ellery]

Hi Guys, if you google 'Universal Carrier on Canadian Pickers' it'll take you to a forum with a link to that particular episode which is no 10. I can't get the link to work but some of the forum members in the Northern Hemisphere are ok. Worth a look. If you do get it going could you please pause it and take a picture for this site. Cheers David.

Why didn't they visit a collector with a proper carrier to shoot their show?

Sorry Hanno, not all Canadians have history as their goal. The show is "reality TV" which really just means, joking and giving ordinary people a chance to see themselves on national television. The main characters travel around, talking to people about their old junk and then offering them very low prices. The inside story for viewers is the buyers put a resale value on each item, and how much profit margin they made. The other interest is of course the history and tales the buyers and sellers exchange. Most of the time the bargaining is for pride, because the sellers have no idea what their old whatever will sell for on the antique market.

I wonder if the carrier is for sale...someone needs to "fix" it.

With the blurb on the last picture the masses who havent seen a proper UC will think they all should look like that
