      While i wouldn't say forget the deadline, i would say don't put the deadline ahead of building it correctly. While it would be great for the crew to have it done and operational in the next 25 days, it'll be a RFPITA if things have to be taken apart and corrected shortly after it's completed.

    Hey guys. I am here because I am a fellow fabricator and a fan of Corvairs! Looking forward to seeing this build in on the trail and in action! When you bend roll bars, try and make sure the weld seam is oriented on the neutral axis. Your main hoop had the weld seam on the outside of the bend, making the weld seam experience maximum stretch. There is already a bunch of stress on the tube due to the weld, and asking it to stretch is potentially making it worse. Putting the weld seam on the center line makes the tubing as happy as it can be. When starting a bend, just remember to make sure the weld seam is lined up with the edge of the bending die and you will be all set!

    Its amazing watching the transformation of this project! Guys please reconsider the use of gloves on the pedestal grinder. I witnessed first hand a man ruining his finger (I was on the first aid team and bandaged him when the accident happened) by wearing gloves while grinding on one. The mind boggling thing is, he had previously completely lost his pinky and ring finger doing the exact same thing. Rotating machinery will grab a glove and what ever is in it before you can realize or react. Ok soap box disengaged..... Awesome build and love the process!

    This channel is great. Not only is the material terrific, but the people are nice (and real) and there is none of that typical RUclips overly dramatic content or the 'star' flapping their gums for 20 minutes for what could have been said in 3 minutes. MORR is hitting it on all counts.

    You've got a great team...keep the chemistry!

    I just might make a drive out from AZ to “get stuck” to meet you all.

    The fab videos are Matt's Off Road gold. Even after the Corvair an 8:2 ratio of recovery to fab/shop videos would be a perfect mix.

    Getting there. I turned a hard top 7 series BMW (4 door) into a convertible once, electric hydraulic roof and all done to high standard. This was a time when convertibles were not being manufactured much but people still wanted them. The vehicle was to become a wedding car so the owner spent a lot of money.
    Strangely enough, my girlfriends brother hired it for his wedding not knowing that I had built it.
    I spoke to the driver who shook my hand and told me that it paid for itself in 3 months and at that moment I felt rewarded for the week I spent just making removable B pillars.

    Might need a little fluid in the tubing bender bottle jack, thats why its only pumping up with short strokes instead of full strokes.. great build guys. Btw, can you make like 8 more video's a week? Can't get enough.

    People used to ask me at work why I would just stand and stare at a piece of equipment for extended periods. Move around and look at different angles. Move it around and see how it moves and operates. It takes a while to piece together the thousands of ways to achieve a vision or end goal. It is the most fun I think. But it does get frustrating when others don't see the value and try to rush. Great build. Going to be a beast off road. Can't wait to see the final product. If I'm holding a piece of work while someone else is cutting with a plasma torch, I usually hold it with a pair of pliers. Not bare hands. Not even gloves at that point.

    Rudy: When we were in demo derby, if our welds failed, we either died or lost.

    This is really cool (except for the 40,000 degree plasma arc)! I've never seen anyone build a car like this before. Hope there is room for the dogs and ropes. You guys (especially Rudy) are doing a great job with the welding (I do know a lot about that)! It's going to be really cool seeing another Yellow Jeep rescue vehicle out there getting people unstuck and retrieving them from the desert sands' grip. I just ordered a Yellow rope to commemorate this build. Thanks for your work!
