- @MerlinsOldSchoolGarage and @jetskijim007 are on more adventures around Havasu. A 9,000 lb machine needs to be moved across town to Jimmy's shop and Merlin gets out the ol' Kenworth rollback truck to get the job done! You won't believe the desert rescue Merlin gets called out for! These local adventures are Merlin and Jimmy's bread and butter!

Love the before and after. "Was there alcohol involved? "no comment" That was classic!
Glad Jimmy is alway there to help, he is a great friend to do everything you need !!! Jimmy help make the show great!!! And as always a great show
That is a big ass CNC, Professional grade. When you said lathe I was thinking something a little smaller. Very nice score Jimmy !!
man that F350 took a beating in a short time. broken axl and still driving. gotta love the Ford Trucks.
Another beast mode recovery.×2. Skill and knowledge saved the day. Jimmy is always a great sidekick.. Great edit job 👏
That was a hoot, Merlin. I imagine that the words "hold my beer" were said at some point.
We were forewarned about truck by his willingness to drive the Lincoln out there! 🤠 You have Jimmy working pretty hard there. I think he has one of the better nicknames on RUclips--"JetSki Jimmy"!
I don't think Jimmy would have been to upset about a chip in concrete having that CNC dropped off. 🤔 smooth recovery of the flogged F350
Your old wrecker is such a beast
When it comes to impulse buys, a CNC lathe is right up there!
Your Wrecker is a monster.
Congrats on your new lathe machine Merlin, I am sure you're happier than a pig in slop.
Merlin and Jimmy to the rescue one hell of a wrecker. Nice cnc. Thanks for the ride along.
What a bummer about how they treated that thing. WAS a nice truck .... Even if it's a 6.0...
Some 03’s were 7.3
@@trialnterror Yeah I have a buddy with an early 03. But the one in the vid is definitely a 6.0. Which once bulletproofed, is a rocket ship.
The from and body on that truck are a disaster
not with that door decal though.@@trialnterror
It needs some of Roby Laytons TLC now
How we moved a heavy safe is just get it up enough to put some 1/2 round bar under it.. and then you can just keep throwing more round bar under it as you roll along like a conveyer belt; it rolls easy like it has wheels on it.
Wrecker killing it once again! That old Ford isn't totalled like he thinks bob it put rock sliders and skids keep crawling it
It's 105 degrees out and Merlin and Jimmy are wearing black shirts.😁😁
I have for years worn white shirts while working out in the heat of summer. The other guys had their black shirts on and would be in the shade while I kept working.
But it's a dry heat! Lol
That's one nice tow truck!
You would be a handy, handy, handy friend in my world. But I'll settle 4 just watching u on RUclips. Thanks 4 taking me, us along.
Merlin is no nonsense to this young customer. I respect that.
That was a pretty nice truck at one time, it puts new meaning to “ Driver Returned On Foot”
I really can't decide what was more impressive: the handling of that heavy chunk of metal (CNC machine) or easily pulling the "2WD" truck up that steep hill. Merlin surely does make it look easy... 😎🤟
Great towing job guys,👍, but I really can't wait to see Jimmy's new CNC-toy in action,👀, I hope you give us a peek at it soon,🤞, great video guys, thanks for sharing.
As a kid I had Saturday cartoons, now I have Sunday Merlin’s old school garage 😎. Merlin and Jimmy gettin stuff done is so entertaining 😂. Just noticed Jimmy’s old 2nd gen got some really round rear fenders 😎
The CNC Lathe is Game Changing, Looking Forward to You getting to Know Her a Little Better. See What She’s Made of, or …. What She can Make?!?!? I’m So Exited. Nope not really but the Tow Truck is Applaudable Merlin.
Jet Ski Jimmy, What can You Say about a Living Legend that Hasn’t Been Said?!? That You Gentlemen, Keep It Safe Out There Fella’s.
Damn Marlin!
We had an perfect singing 12v Cummins over the top, and you put music over it!??!!??
I vote for a RUclips shorts with the end pull of this video.
😂🤘
I enjoy your videos best. No gimmicks, no gratuitous drama, no senseless foolishness, like some of the others.
Wow that guy really bet the CRAP out of that truck... Merlin you did a great caring for that truck an getting it out...Hope Jimmy enjoys that cnc lath..
Nice lathe!
Nice recovery!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Lessons learned. Life is never as easy as pushing rewind and do over!
I had to push rewind at the 4:50 mark because it looked like the forklift was moving sideways at first.
Your Tow tuck is a beast and the best looking one at that out of all the tow trucks on RUclips. Time to make some money with your new/old machine you bought also. Great video as always Merlin and Jimmy
Thanks 👍
My first career I was a machinist and I programmed CNC lathes and mills. After completing college I switched and went to work for Cisco (38 years).
"Was alcohol involved?" Probably didn't even need asking. LOL! Great job!
The CNC will be a welcomed addition! Merlin, you and Jimmy are old-school two peas in a pod! You get the job done! Keep up the great content! Til next time, take care, and we'll see you on the next...
Beer Glasses and Whiskey Throttle, get you every time !!! Great score on that lathe, excellent recovery, Good Good Video !!!!!! Always a Pleasure !!!!!
You and Jimmy get to have too much fun. Love your "Baby" wrecker!
Paul’s wrecker is pretty sweet, Rory’s wrecker is pretty awesome, your’s is pretty unstoppable! I’m might be a bit biased though as I love the PURE POWER of diesels!
Its that unstoppable torque combined with enough iron in the front to keep the front wheels biting 😂
All purpose built for their terrain
Wish i had a friend like Jimmy
I'm glad he had at least two wheel drive. All help is appreciated.
The Ford driver hammered that pickup everywhere. The before and after pictures really show the damage. Almost looks like the frame is bent. May want to look into acquiring another vehicle.
Wrecker did good, reasonable amount of weight in that F350. New machine looks the goods for sure.
Merlin to the rescue
Thanx for sharing your experience
Have a Great Day 👍
God Bless America 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
Thanx, keep up your great work 💪
Really nice cnc machine. Great job on the recovery......
Great recovery Merlin & Jimmy!!!!
Jimmy gets a CNC and I’m over here happy I just bought and setup my first drill press…thank you for another great video Merlin!
Wow!! That is some lathe!! I can't even imagine all the new projects you can do now!! That guy with the Dodge was in a bit of a pickle!! Poor truck! If that was an insurance claim it would be totaled for sure! LOL!! Nice job getting him out with Tow Mater!! I know now why you take Jimmy along. 😆
Wow Merlin,now you have a big,big magic wand to be able to make anything your mind comes up with in the future. Love,love the Ole tow truck. Keep up the great work. Love the channel. Always learn something new every video Merlin,thanks for taking us subscriber's along for the ride. ✌️👍😎😁🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Hitachi Seikis are good solid machines. Too bad they are gone now. Hard parts will be a little difficult to find but they made a lot of those machines. Its got a Fanuc or Yasnac control. They are around and very helpful. Good luck!
Stupid is as stupid does, I hope he had a bunch of fun while it lasted! Lol
Ive sacrificed a car to the trail gods before . Glad to see you can get a " round two" out of the truck. I like the work smart , not hard attitude . Good stuff Merlin (and friends). thanks
Oh yeah, I can hear it now....hold my beer; I'm gonna try this wash! Should be easy...or maybe not!
Nice recovery. I really like that ol'Chevy!
Thanks for making. By the look of the truck things went way south.
It's 105 and we're wearing black T shirts !
Great vid 👍👍👍👍👍
Merlin! You are the best, from an old Richfield guy! I love your life!
You and Jimmy are an awesome team! God bless you all and keep you safe!
Nice work all around Merlin. Looking forward to what you make with the new lathe.
I can already see the Marketplace Ad- “Nice 2003 F-350, bulletproofed 6.0 (studded and deleted) 4x4, minor damage to the box, but runs and drives. $15,000 obo. No low ballers I know what I got”😂
“Was alcohol involved.”
“Can’t say.”
That’s a sure indication of YES!
Great recovery Merlin and Jimmy. The Wrecker makes it look Too easy, lol.
Nice machine congrats on the score!! You would love the monster fork trucks they use in the port of Houston to move and stack containers. They are behemoths but really cool machines.
I drove a Nissan versa lift 45/65 once. It will pick up a fully loaded trailer, truck included. 45k lbs, with the counterweight on a hydraulic ram that moves it out and increases the capacity to 65k lbs. What a monster!
To quote tickle from moonshiners "alcohol is both the cause and solution to all of my problems ".
Great job guys! Awesome to see the 'ol wrecker out again! 🤘
Merlin, you pull no punches: '..was alcohol involved?'
Thanks for the awesome content Merlin and Jimmy, I appreciate what ya'll do!
That wreaker is ridiculously rad
The terain and bad judgment can be hard on equipment. Great save tough truck.
The wrecker is a monster for reals. Good work as always.
Merlins magic old-school garage❤❤❤
The things people do with trucks! Great rescue in the heat. All with no hats or water.
Awesome afternoon brother another awesome adventure brother great addition to the shop !!! Going to be an awesome adventure as always hope yall have an awesome day
Hitachi seiki makes good machines,
I ran one of their horizontal mills for years. When u get it running show some videos 👍🏻
Excellent CNC Machine Merlin and jimmy Great recovery
Great video, thumbs up thanks for bringing us along on your adventures, always in Merlin style 😎
Enjoying your video from a hospital bed again, had more surgery for an aneurysm that has come back, but anyway fixed now all is good. Loves Sunday a lot of you guys post your content on a Sunday
AWESOME MACHINE FOR SHOP!
How to tear up a FORD without really trying. Nice work Merlin !
Oh he tried hard.. and he succeeded
Nice job guy's there's something about getting breakfast after that makes you work even harder lmao thanks for the video
Back in the 70's when I worked for Moroso Performance, back when they still manufactured their stuff in America, and before they sent most their manufacturing to China, we used one of those Hitachi CNC lathes to manufacture parts.
Oh, my g*d! Last last one. The before and after had me rolling with laughter. Lick his wounds is right!
It's hard to believe people will trash what appears to be perfectly good vehicles by taking them off in those areas. Seems like an expensive activity even for people that have vehicles built for that but to take a stock vehicle in there and trash it out, I just shake my head and laugh. hahah You do make it look easy Merlin. .
Now that's a GOOD OL BOY WHO NOWS HOW TO HAVE A GOOD TIME YEE HAA.
Merlin of all our off road recovery guys and their trucks and cars of the art of recovery. Your truck is the badest one on the block. I simply love the windshield tilt out. Merlin nice rig.
Nice video ! Even in the Heat ! Thanks for sharing !
Yeah, That's where I would drive a Lincoln Town Car. Sure. I'd do that !!!
I have a similar truck as that.. 2002 F350 7.3L 6spd manual, manual 4x4, manual hubs. It's an awesome truck, but it's just too dang heavy for off roading.. especially in sand or mud. It's very capable off roading, but I just try to avoid it if I have a choice. My old 95 F150 5spd 4x4.. I took it everywhere and it was a beast in 4Low. It would run circles around the 7.3L in the dessert.. But the 7.3L will blow right by in with a gooseneck on the highway-- so they have their place.
That's just amazing to me that someone in any state of mind would put one of those trucks in that position at all!
Good job snatching the guy up the hill. 👍
Great unloading job….i should have known better but i expected a trail of tears,,,😜👍👍
Never underestimate a Cummins!!!! 💪💪
, that will be a nice addition to the shop. I worked as a mechanical design engineer for Cincinnati Milacron. Designed many component of CNC lathes.
Didn't know that much damage could be done without rolling. AZ rocks, I guess....
And with that CNC now you can put that barbecue on the back of the tow truck ohyeah❤
Of all the wreckers, yours is the best badass of all! Nice recovery, Merlin. 👏👍👍
Love your old trucks..❤❤❤❤
Man, some people are something else. Your tow rig made that look way too easy, you build one hell of a truck.
I finally got my first diesel! Its a 5.9 cummins with the p pump.
Tearing it down to powder coat the frame.
To prevent damage to the rope on the ledge if you got a spare tire on either vehicle air it down to flat and stick it under the rope standing up if it will if its blown or destroyed and wont hold air even better
Heck yeah. Wrecker action 👍👍🇺🇸
That building looked like a good spot for you to work in.
Good Sunday morning wrecker saving the day . Remember Respect Sunday 🙏✝️
Awesome content, Merlin! Thank you. Good job Jimmy.
Bro had on Bluetooth rock sliders 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Paul’s talking about LS swapping his wrecker, what’s wrong with that Boy…..Cummins for the Win when torque is required.
