Chiefs Roadside Antiques and Estates — Local services in Whittier

Overpriced

I bought an old bullett style trash can from him to restore. It was beat to he'll, rusted and falling apart, the guy charged me $70.00! Well, 6 years later and I'm just seeing the reply. ANSWER: that trash was beat to hell and no way worth $70. The reason I bought it was because I couldn't find one that I could restore. Now, you will probably say if I couldn't find one, then it was worth it. Semantics. But I wanted one, you had one and I paid the price. So, what did I do with it? Banged out the dents, got the rust and corrosion off, primed and painted high gloss red. Polished the door to a chrome finish. Had a friend print a large white dye cut "Milwaukee" Tools sticker, applied to the front, then clear coat....

I stumbled upon this hidden gem and felt like I walked onto the set of American Pickers! Petroliana, vintage signs, and even a sleek restored Indian motorcycle out front - it's like they raided Mike Wolfe's personal stash. Inside, it's a man cave paradise (in the coolest way possible), but don't worry, ladies, there's delicate treasures too - just head west on Whittier for the fancy stuff. The real treasure, though? The friendly staff! Zero pressure, all enthusiasm. They let me get hands-on with the goods (no white gloves required). Moral of the story: shop here AND at that other place down the street. Trust me, you won't regret it. These guys are the antique-dealing, bike-restoring,...

I love this store, the "chief" that runs the place is cool to. Some big mexican guy with a cool mustache. Anyway, i went in there to check out the place and i just fell in love with the set up. I thought it was a museum rather then an antique store. Price wise... a little over the top but its original antiques and cool ones, not like old lady things. Like chairs, tables and books. Mancave type things.

If your looking for those type of antiques then I suggest you stop by. Just make sure you have money before you enter, you might fall in love...
