I've used those 440's and 454's out of motorhomes before! Once you get them out of the ocean liners they came in, and put them in something more suitable, (ie, Roadrunner), they... MOVE! Loved seeing JD cruise around the yard in it! Great job!
Glad you were able to get it home and have fun with it before the disassembly of it. And that your son was able to experience driving a big beast! I loved: “it’s slow!” 😂 He’ll say differently once it’s in the “Rolled Runner!” 😂
I love seeing you let JD drive man he's gonna be one hell a driver! You letting him get behind the wheel of this behemoth monstrosity and just trusting his instincts is fucking awesome man. A a father of two younger boys myself I love to see it 💪🏼🤙🏼
Awesome video! Its just great to see all those adventures on which you take your son with you, its just great! right now I am rebuilding a newer car that is wrecked but my son is only five and he is barely able to find me the right socket but he will get there, some day : l
Great video of you getting that hunk of junk RV with a great engine in it. It runs amazing seems like. And the bonus that you can sell is the running generator that people will want. Keep it up and I am looking forward to more great videos on the RolledRunner! Have a blessed weekend.
@@PoleBarnGarage: True plus It might have broken in half which would have meant J.D. wouldn't have a cool clubhouse to hang out with his friends in and in a few years his girlfriends! 😉 😜
I was riding shotgun in a journey mobile home going to the thousand islands. The driver noticed a noise.I took the engine cover off and put a big screwdriver on the left cylinder head.I begged him to shut it down because it was surely a rod. Just as I begged him to shut it down I watched the rod come through the strongest poin on that block and it was stuck in the pavement. We turned into a fruit stand and there was a puddle so naturely he drove through it and it was 3 feet deep causing the body to kinda whip and it emptied the refrigerator of its contents all over the shag carpet. There were no parts available so we collected every piece of cast iron off the block to have it all nickel welded back together. He found a rod and crank in a junkyard and he put that poor 440 back together and it ran better than when he bought.
6:26 That's what I was thinking turn it into a clubhouse. Another thing that you can do is turn it into a trailer that way you can move it wherever want.
ALL the very best wishes from over the pond England brilliant Content as usual buddy and your humour is brilliant too love your vids .. you and Puddins fab shop channel are my favourites ( no it's not a plug) for him
I personally love old motorhomes and while it's sad seeing one get cut up a bit for its powertrain, even *i* can agree, that one is pretty darn clapped out and sketchy, woulda taken wayyyy too much work to be really usable again
My 1971 "Kayōt" (never seen another one) 23' Class A had a 413, 727, Dana 70, and no heat or running water. I paid $1000 for it in 2004. On the way home the fuel pump took a shit in the busiest intersection in Bellingham, at rush hour. A bystander loaned me his gas can and gas, and I dribbled gas down the carb for 7 miles to get home. I lived in it for a year and a half. Not a good time in my life!
I got a 454 outta an old RV I bought. Some low lifes made it easy for me though by setting fire to it after they stole my Onan generator. Made it easier to pull the big block out.
Filmed on on a mobile phone, while travelling in a mobile home, all the while the passenger is in mobile mode. Then the descion to keep it mobile while you decide what to to do with the mobile home. Alot of mobiles there. Probably even got gas at a Mobil station.
Win win all around! The compression ratio on that engine is probably 8.5-1 but we know how to fix that and such. Pull that engine out from the front and pop it in that roll car Mopar👍
5:25 i know youre feeling... but in Sweden that acure on basicly evry day... & how it is called *A traktor* . Basicly a rebuild car that can reregister to a tractor & lgf sign in back. MAX speed is like 15mph or 30kmt & NO higways. & can be driven by a 15 year old leagely. If you have a moped licens.
'Swinger' lol. Tweaker special edition, more like. Imagine what those mirrors on the ceiling have seen. Whatever you do, don't shine a blacklight aroubd in there...
DANG...how far did you have to take this back home?? thats definately scetchy as hell....thats what makes the adventure tho... and content....lol. I also agree that that its better when I see your personality...also where are you located...I havent seen that so far. I'm thinking the midwest somewhere
There’s a pretty rough motor home down the road from my house with a good 454 I want to pick up. 2 ish years ago he wanted 2500 for the whole motor home. I’m gonna get a job at the end of the summer and I think I’ll go buy it. And then buy a pickup truck cab and build a nice flatbed truck thing. Hopefully he comes down on price
The hysterical laughter while simply driving this thing, I've been in there, I knew what that was like 😂😂
There is simply no greater joy than piloting a piece of shit RV down the highway!
Lots of folks buy crate motors - yours just came in a very big one.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
JD: Hey Dad, remember that time we did the sketchy road trip?
Dad: Which time?
JD: Yeah ... good times ... thanks dad.
Totally missed opportunity to say "the motor is OK, it's the home part thats the problem".
your son is having a great child hood he will never forget this stuff!
I've used those 440's and 454's out of motorhomes before! Once you get them out of the ocean liners they came in, and put them in something more suitable, (ie, Roadrunner), they... MOVE!

Great job!
Congrats PBG on getting the 440 motor for the RolledRunner. Jd look like he had fun driving the van.
Jd is such a good kid and so smart he picks up the things u show him on the first try. You have to be so proud of him .
Every day is an adventure with you. Your son is a lucky boy. 😄
Well I turned on the old RUclips and had to choose between your video and Vise grip and for the moment I chose your Channel. Really like your Channel!
Thanks!
What a rolling pile! 440 is sweet though and it def made for some fun times for you and your son.
Glad you were able to get it home and have fun with it before the disassembly of it. And that your son was able to experience driving a big beast!
I loved: “it’s slow!” 😂
He’ll say differently once it’s in the “Rolled Runner!” 😂
Coolest dad ever. This was great.
Per usual, livin my dream here.
I was LMAO when you saw the line of traffic behind you… “that’s normal” 😆🤣😂
Anyone else think its ironic they take the engine from the slowest moving object on the highway and put it in a fast car? 😂 That shits amazing.
You assume an 8:1 440 in a two ton tank is going to be fast. 😉
Your boys a safer , better driver then a lot of the people on the road here in NC .
😂
You look like cousin Eddy cruising into Clark’s house on fumes!! 😆
It’s always nice to see a father and son camping trip!
😂😂😂😂
I like when you have the genuine content with your son! Got a like for being you in this one.
I love seeing you let JD drive man he's gonna be one hell a driver! You letting him get behind the wheel of this behemoth monstrosity and just trusting his instincts is fucking awesome man. A a father of two younger boys myself I love to see it 💪🏼🤙🏼
What a great club house that will be!!! Super idea!
You put the "Ger" in "Swinger" baby!
Awesome video! Its just great to see all those adventures on which you take your son with you, its just great! right now I am rebuilding a newer car that is wrecked but my son is only five and he is barely able to find me the right socket but he will get there, some day : l
You're Recreational Cooking with Gas, LOL. Great stuff, as usual!
Great score on that 440 💪🏾💯💯💯💪🏾
J.D. was backing that barge like a Boss!
👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾
Adventures in RV'ing, with Captain Sketchy. 🤣
Ack... that poor carb. What does it run on? Coal? 😂
Either that or fire
You two put a smile on my face !
that time laps is the quickest the rv's ever gone probably!
I remember them adventures with my son. Then he grew up.Teach your boy all you can now one day he.ll know everything.
There are mirrors on the ceiling some freaky stuff going on in that RV back in the day . 😄
😅

What!!! You didn't try & jump the motorhome!!!! The short rally cross was good enough for me!
I'm pretty sure I would've died, but I wanted to.

Good copilot he just agresses with everything the pilot says 😂
I was channeling my inner Trailer Park Boys while watching this. The 440 is indeed the only redeeming factor to that tenement on wheels.
You’ve got a great sub-name for the Rolled Runner, “Mopar Swinger” or Swing N Mopar.
You and your boy have a lot of fun really cool
We try!
You should take it on Hotrod power tour. Big 440
440 is a 440 is a 440. Gotta get one somewhere!
You're a great dad!!
Looks like a fun project! Your son handles that beast like a pro...Looks like some hapless something crashed and burned past your house at 10:00...
pole barn garage no wounder it was such a mess on the inside the ol girl was a SWINGER LOL
Great and cheap way to get 440 power!
I think you should put that RV captains chair in the runner. It’s classy.
You got an engine and j d got a club house good deal !
Son hangs on for dear life😂
I have to say this reminds me of roadkills general mayhem
ALL the very best wishes from over the pond England brilliant Content as usual buddy and your humour is brilliant too love your vids .. you and Puddins fab shop channel are my favourites ( no it's not a plug) for him
They should have paid you to haul it away..🤣🤣🤣
Can't wait to see the motor transplant you are going to need a Sawzall and some sharp blades LOL
That genny is probably worth a few hundred bucks. Plus the scrap value of the frame, and the 440, thats a pretty good deal right there!
You gotta hurry up with that meth or we will lose the shop!
Look man, I'll do what I gotta do understand
@@PoleBarnGarage lol
If I had the property for it I would love that motorhome for a home recording studio. Space for instruments. Putting sound deadening up on the walls.
Hopefully you have a better plan to get the motor out than the Roadkill guys had.
I personally love old motorhomes and while it's sad seeing one get cut up a bit for its powertrain, even *i* can agree, that one is pretty darn clapped out and sketchy, woulda taken wayyyy too much work to be really usable again
They usually had the HP lower end. Good find.

The guts in that transmission are in a hemi torqueflite trans
Great video!! 👍🏻
Thanks!
I picked up a RV about 3-4 years ago Drove it to be scrapped. 11,265 miles on it (1979). $400
I got a 454 outta an old RV I bought.
Some low lifes made it easy for me though by setting fire to it after they stole my Onan generator. Made it easier to pull the big block out.
The name of that motorhome surely gives you ideas about how it was used...
I'm glad it was gutted that's for sure
I wish I was you son...oh wait I could just be your friend!!! You are freaking hilarious!!!
Used shirt to wipe oil dipstick!😂 savage I love it !something I would do

the cooking book🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's called a "Swinger" and the PO must have taken it literally with the mirrors on the ceiling. Is everything sticky in it? Love the curtains.
Gross!!!
Ectoplasm everywhere …
Great score !
Can't wait for the vid of burning the carcass 👍if you do.
Win win all around! The compression ratio on that engine is probably 8.5-1 but we know how to fix that and such. Pull that engine out from the front and pop it in that roll car Mopar👍
Yes, with nitrous! Wait..
@@PoleBarnGarage I like your style good buddy 👍 definitely looking forward to the awesomeness 😎🎸🚀🇺🇸
Nothing sketchier than a gutted RV coming with a painting suit... Yep... Toilet, TV, what more do you need out of life?
Well it's missing the meth lab, but we can't expect everything for free
@@PoleBarnGarage In all seriousness, I do not want to know what kind of sketchy nonsense went on in that RV! Haha
If your son can drive this he can drive anything! Making great memories. Congrats 🍾 working toward 25k … Shitters full 😆
I've bought a couple motor homes for the engine. Good value
Best way to get a good running big block!

JD cracks me up!!!
poor JD....hanging on for dear life...😂
I got a low mile 454/ th400 from a Winnebago rv for $500. Rvs are the best kept secret of the hot rod community...
'Swinger' lol. Tweaker special edition, more like. Imagine what those mirrors on the ceiling have seen. Whatever you do, don't shine a blacklight aroubd in there...
I shuddered reading this
Haha, I most admit I'd have probably been tempted to tear out the motor and generator and put a match to the rest, lol 🔥
😂 of course its called a "Swinger..."
Another great video
There goes cousin Eddie in his RV !
The tick tock tick tock tick tock motor home!
DANG...how far did you have to take this back home?? thats definately scetchy as hell....thats what makes the adventure tho... and content....lol. I also agree that that its better when I see your personality...also where are you located...I havent seen that so far. I'm thinking the midwest somewhere
Kansas City area. Had to take her home around 30 miles, nothing to brag about but scary the same
That husk will make a good bachelor pad for JD.
For sure
RV's start with dreams, and turn into nightmares.
This one was full of nightmares
There’s a pretty rough motor home down the road from my house with a good 454 I want to pick up. 2 ish years ago he wanted 2500 for the whole motor home. I’m gonna get a job at the end of the summer and I think I’ll go buy it. And then buy a pickup truck cab and build a nice flatbed truck thing. Hopefully he comes down on price
Awesome
😅 No doubt he will be listing the motorless home on AirBnB just as soon as he finishes renovations...😂
Was that the breaking bad cookbook!??
Headlight trim looks like the same as a Coronet or Fury. Somebody might want those.
Knock the body off and get an old truck cab and put on there.
I thought so as well, 73-76
Such a nice Motor Home. 🤣
Well the 440 I tried offering didn’t come with a toilet lmao
Thats an all fiberglass body, pretty rare to be that old
love my wedge!!!
Never owned one, pretty excited
Good job dad
...by the way, is that toilet for sale?
BIG $$$$
It's gone to the great septic tank in the sky
You are awesome!
The way home prices are going in this country you may get good money for the rolling box house in the near future.
The swinger.
damn id buy the dually chassis lol
