There is a good reason why we all drive cars like this all over Europe... We don't have huge, wide roads everywhere, fuel is 50% more, regulations are crippling... but we like to drive our cars like we stole them. Long live the four pot, turbo, rear wheel drive.
ive been driving golfs and jettas and sciroccos since i got stationed in germany 26 years ago. my daily is a little vr6 golf that i built, and it's great! nippy little thing in traffic, good power and long fast highway pulls in "mexico" and since it was a 5 door that i swapped, i can easily haul my kids in the back when i need to. little euro trash cars are just EPIC!
@@Joe-sn6ir some of us, like me, a disabled vet, cant afford "a few dollars" here and there. i eat one meal a day so my kids can eat regularly. so no, im not paying MT for a couple of episodes a month. also.... WHY ARE YOU HERE ON THIS FREE VIDEO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!
There used to be a killer auto museum called World of Speed right off the I-5 freeway in Wilsonville that these guys would have loved. I think it permanently closed just before this episode, but they had a bunch of cool stuff, stock cars, lots of old vintage Top Fuel and Funny Cars, some rally stuff and quite a bit of land speed cars including Mickey Thompsons Challenger 1 right inside the front doorway. I was blown away as soon as I walked in seeing that car. Freiburger would have loved it. Sucks that it's gone.
You guys are mad total and pure mix of lunacy and motor head ..all three of you....decades of ludacrishness (if ever there is this word.."ludachrishness"..lol)..whatever and I knw you wouldn't mind after all you do with the improvisations to make the 'gears' running...just love you guys keep the contents coming guys never mind the new old anything but just keep it coming ...just literally hooked with the show and remnants of it from other youtubers that upload your contents...totally a junky craving to get a fix of them contents what so ever..😅😅
I wonder how pissed off they were when they realize that’s a portion of our front end and with one socket and a ratchet they could’ve jacked the front end up a bit and dealt with that rubbing tire problem in about four minutes. My old Toyota was lowered and it would creep down and a buddy of mine got out and ran the front end up at a stoplight once
Awesome, fan-bloody-tastic. Thank you for down loading this. Great episode, first time in years that I've watched RK. Binge watching the rest of the episodes now. Thank you once again 👍 👍 👍 (13/07/2024) in the UK 🇬🇧
same! havent watch ANYTHING MT since the paywall hit! Tony Angelo is now posting NEW content similar to hotrod garage, Dave Chappell is posting new dirt head garage content, and david freiburger has his own channel now posting new content! go check em out, no MT involved!
@@fishnhomeylod462 correct. it was in testing and final development towards the middle/end of 1945. a few were put into combat, but a P51 was awarded a kill on a jet messerschmitt, and AFAIK is the only prop plane to shoot down a jet plane. (TBF the rolls merlin in the little mustang was like stuffing an LS4 supercharged into a mx5 NA....)
Im digging the car,its ugly but it's not 😂.. perfect candidate for a turbo k series swapped in.along with some coilovers, would be a rocket on a road course..
the 2.3 ford turbo setup that is in it can be tuned to the MOON! ive seen those making well over 300hp, and the problem is finding a transmission that bolts up that will handle that! that's the same engine from the "SVT" turbo fox body mustang. it's no slouch!
im a disabled vet, and i literally cant afford "a few dollars" a month. i eat one meal a day so my two kids still get 3. cable was too expensive, so i got rid of it. now all the on-demand stuff is just as expensive and STILL has ads. so these re-uploads are literally all i watch. i have no hulu, netflix, etc. no cable box. nothing at all. not even an antenna for locals because even with a boosted antenna in my 750k city, i cant pick up a single thing! so it's this or i simply watch the grass grow... and i did enough of that when i was active duty, so NO!
9:33. WHAT LOT OF CAR GUYS DIDNT KNOW WHEN TIMING IS TOO HIGH PUSTONS RATTLE AND TONS OF BLOW BY GOES INTO CRANCASE PRESSURIZING IT AND BLOWING OIL OUT FRONT AND REAR SEALS. JUST MAKING SURE TIMING SET TO 10 DEGREES STOPS ALL OF THIS OH AND THE HARD CRANKING DUE TO.PREIGINTION. SUPER QUICK FIX TLIS TO GET A VENTED OIL CAP TO RELEASE PRESSURE.
would be a really snug fit! that's a compact toyota frame, and an even MORE compact uk-style car body. the car is so small that the skinny tires on a compact toyota pickup are TOO WIDE.... find a v8 that fits in a datsun 210 without cutting the frame apart........
WHY do yall always get the dirtiest rustiest ugly bad paint won't start wont shift oil guzzling Overheating underpowered oil and warer leaking smoking back firing no heater catching on fire 🔥 Tire scraping no brakes pieces of 💩 nobody wants?? All the other testers get 800 HP high performance masterpieces! I suppose you wouldn't have millions of dedicated viewers like me!! Theres nothing better than to see two great mechanics struggle to keep Those piles of scrap metal going! NEVER STOP OR RETIRE!!

Honestly had no clue Roadkill was still being made. I've not even seen or heard a mention of it since MT went to a paywall.
Same, Glad to see it back, sort of. I'll take what I can get.
Free roadkill till it's backwards
another freeloader... O.o

One of my absoloute favorite shows EVER!
loving the re-uploads! i missed this since MT went paywall!
Cool ! Now the game is to watch the max of episode before the youtube strike !
The definition of souped up jalopy 😂I love it
those ford 2.3 turbos were spunky little engines! my buddy had the "SVT" fox body mustang with it, and it would really boogie!

torsion bars? like old mopars? not familiar with old Yotas
I would love to build one of these
Love the front end

Great episode, first time in years that I've watched RK.
Binge watching the rest of the episodes now.

the chrome on the hood scoop is worth more then the whole car
Guy Cotton.
They make a waterproof hoodie that is comfy. Get one Mike!!
Love me some roadkill.
"There is a lot of oil not in the engine" - Mike
"if theres oil UNDER it, theres oil IN it." old Dodge Proverb
Lucas and these guys never check anything. Gotta pour the oil bottle sideways fellas. Dusters are for dorks
Freiburger forgot about the Messerschmitt in WW II. That was a jet. Great episode, thanks for posting!
Didn't that only come around near the end of the War though? I thought it was only around to make an impact for the last year or something.
@@moogle68 Still made it into production, but yes, toward the end.

Someone in the uk has a K24 turbo metropoliton, its so fast
Thanks for posting. Big fan just won’t pay for MT on Demand 😅

Timing is set by computer in the 2.3 ford of that era
you are yelling,tone it down
Imagine if they decide to put a V-8 in that little car??? I'm sure it would be a blast to drive

So i have this motor in my sandrail they really love a wet shot of nitrous in the intake runner mines about 75 hp shot
yeah these little 2.3Ts could really go like stink! ive seen non NOS versions well over 300hp just happy as a clam in a mud pit!
Call it the "Crash Metropolitan " lol
You folks could take the hood off and use it as a roof. That way the rain would wash the oil outta the engine bay
Anyone else think the "Dysfunctional Beater" theme is getting close to its limit?
I love these guys, they are definitely motor heads, BUT…that motor is out of a Turbo Coupe or a Mustang SVO, not a Super Coupe lol
the super coupe did come with the 2.3 turbo. one of my friends owns one, all original.
Thank you for uploading this. Motor trend od doesn't work in europe
You're welcome
Roadkill still going strong since Todd in El Paso helped them buy that Catalina
D Baarth!!
I would get rid of the 4 cylinder and put a V6 engine in it
Support Lamborghini doors on it
the "Missing Linc" is now a 24 Hours of Lemons racecar and rally car!
why is so fuggin blurry
360 res,not 720,not 1080
WHY do yall always get the dirtiest rustiest ugly bad paint won't start wont shift oil guzzling
Overheating underpowered oil and warer leaking smoking back firing no heater catching on fire 🔥
Tire scraping no brakes pieces of 💩 nobody wants??
All the other testers get 800 HP high performance masterpieces!
I suppose you wouldn't have millions of dedicated viewers like me!!
Theres nothing better than to see two great mechanics struggle to keep
Those piles of scrap metal going! NEVER STOP OR RETIRE!!
360potatoe no thanks! Upload better quality
horrible quality, no thanks
