It’s great to see Matt teaching the young men and building a great team. Those life-lessons will outlive any jeep they build.
The man word!!? ! Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee🧂
The best part is the young men and women.
Kaulin and Rhett's fabricating skills just keep on improving more and more. Nice to see Rudy again also.
It's really nice seeing Rudy on the channel. It would be cool if he was on more, or a RAD collab, or honestly if he just came back.
Yea especially since his channel is pretty boring
I was wondering where he went! Don't see much of him anymore.
Bet his something to do with that girl of his
I really enjoyed Rudy popping in once in a while and being part of the team, but I don’t think long-term would work out. I think there’s too much testosterone from a few other workers there definitely wish he would do more with his channel needs to take a build and take it all way through versus just showing bits and pieces.
Rudy is busy with his welding/fabricating job/business
Nothing better than a father and his sons working together and learning a trade. Well done Matt, you are a wonderful example of what a father should be!
Trump said he is the ''Father of the vax''. 🏆
It nice to see the whole family doing a little work
Does my heart good to see the relationship y'all share with Ed.
Couple of small nits: split lock washers go under the nut, not the bolt. On the skid plate (and any other similar location, the bolt should come from above so that if a nut does come off, the bolt remains holding. When the bottom shock bolts came off (previous video), they should be reinstalled with a castle nut and a cotter pin. Start using nylock nuts, MilSpec AN-365 type when you don;t want things vibrating off. You guys do really good work, keep it up. (edit for spelling)
The problem with bolt down for skid plates is that the threads get buggered up on the rocks
Your kindness and patience with Ed shows what a good soul you are Matt.
Matt’s voice sound like he has a head full of snot.
Honestly I feel like Ed has been with Matt so long it's more of a father son relationship
I only watch to see Ed❤
Don't lose that golf club Matt. It seems to mean something to Ed the way he wanted to make sure it was safe where he had it. While at the same time he wanted you to have it.
BIG Shout out to Ed. Good to see him in the video.
I report my work as no problems, went smooth! That is almost always a fib. It's crazy to me that these guys lay it all out there:
This is our goal
This is our earnest speculation
This was the plan
This is what we ran into
This is what we did
This is how we fixed what we did
You guys crank out BEASTS and it's done with a smile. What a fine example you set for your audience! I learn a lot from each if you.
Proud Dad showing off sons skills and Tom.. A real smile video 😀rest of the crew!!
It's great to see Kaulin and Rhett fabricating. They both are doing fine behind the camera. Keep up the great work guys!
What I see is, in ten years, Matts going to be able to work as hard, or as little as he wants, because he's got such a talented crew!!
That blue is called gunmetal blue pearl. It was introduced in 97.
I've owned mine since new, in 97.
I have same color 98
Your new golf club has alot of sentimental value. What a friend to have Ed makes everyone's day⛳️
I just want to thank you for your videos. I live in snowy west Michigan, and my driveway is terrible when it gets snowy. Today, my wife slid off the driveway and got stuck. Noatter how.much we didn't dig her out helped, but because of what I've learned watching your videos, I was able to yank her out in no time with just my little Subaru Outback. It was nothing like what you guys do, but I knew exactly what to do from watching you guys. I just have an old fashioned tow rope, rather than a MORR Rope, but it got the job done! I truly appreciate the amount of time and effort you put into creating these videos! They're entertaining AND educational!
Your video editing gets better and better! The news clip of the wildfires that Tom ‘started’ was hilarious.
Lots going on with Robby's XJ Banana clone Jeep and progress is moving forward. Kaulin and Rhett are really excelling in the welding trade and looking good! Nice to see Jaymie and Jefe working on the Gladiator give away Jeep. Someone will be lucky to win it!
Incredible to watch the growing skills of the younger generation in the shop; we shouldn't be surprised when we remember Lizzie's same path, and how wonderfully competent she became...
Rhett and Kaulin are becoming very comfortable in front of the camera!!
❤❤❤
I haven’t seen Kaitlyn for a few episodes she might be bye-bye
Yeah, I guess you have to think of what you need to say before you have to do a re-take. Nice they left them in though. Matt, your boys are really becoming valuable essentials to your business. Very nice to see Ed again, trying to sharpen up Matt's putting skills. And Rudy stopped by too. That Commanche is going to make somebody very happy. Thanks for the video.
They had me cracking up at 15mins. Great boys
They are both becoming proficient at welding and fabricating, great life skills.
@@daveboberg67 AFAIK, she's still a competitive rock crawler, so she's probably been away for an event. But that's just a guess...
The first Corvette was in 1953, as mentioned several times below... But the WORD corvette goes all the way back to 17th century France. It was a class of sailing ship, smaller than a frigate.
It does a heart good to watch you help your sons to learn a trade, a trade that will serve them well everyday of their life.
Now I know why my AC wasn't working great after installing hood louvers on my TJ...
Don't the controls have a recirculation mode?
@@Fix_It_Again_Tony I think recirc mode is newer tech as compared the year of these rigs.
@@MurgatroidGarfunkle My 1982 Datsun 720 had a recirculation mode.
@@Fix_It_Again_Tony Interesting...I didn't know recirc was implemented that early...thanks.
You should partner with Barnes and offer a weld-in Banana kit for XJs. That rig is so capable I would love to have one but don’t have the skills. Something I could hand to the local 4x4 shop with instructions and CNC cut parts would be incredible.
I used to work at Teraflex and I hand built A TON of those joints over the years that I worked there. If you don't seat those clips in properly, the whole thing can fall apart or get chewed up when under the vehicle. We used to assemble them under a hydraulic press, but those clips were always the worst part. I can't even guess how many C clip pliers we went through each week.
P.S. - Ed is so nice. I love seeing him around on the channel. Reminds me a lot of my grandfather that lived the final years of his life in Southern Utah.
My favorite of all the recovery/ build channels 🤘😎🤘🇬🇧
It sure is nice to see how Kaulin and Rhett are turning into real fabricators and welders, two chips off the old block! And Tom keeps a balance so things don't get too crazy! The rest of the crew works well together, and Jamie and Jefe working in the outdoor shop just cracks me up! Keep up the good work keeping us educated and entertained Matt!
Made me wonder why they took the stock tires and rims to the tire shop if they got new tires and rims and mounted themselves.🤔
Thanks Matt for keeping the Corvair references going for this episode! And by the way, 1953 was the first year of the Corvette.
EX-122 was an instant hit and the first production Corvette was built on June 30, 1953 in flint, Michigan and only 300 were built-virtually by hand and all on a pilot line. This first year Corvette was available only in Polo white with Red bucket seat interior trim.
Great content, as always! Point of order, the first year of the Corvette was 1953.
Matt is a silly guy ... I was thinking that he knew that but didn't mind saying otherwise. tongue in cheek
Came here for this comment! Lol I'm not a Corvette guy and I knew this .. gotta love Matt
Not that anyone cares, but the entimology of the word goes back to the 17th century... Anyway, keep up the great content guys!
I don’t think it was available until 54??
Corvette was introduced in 1953, not 54. But yeah, long before the Corvair. Deja Blue is coming right along! Really looking good!
The jeep is coming along awesome!!! Thank you guys for your hard work I can’t wait to see it
See it? Just pretend the Banana is blue. Lol
I’ve been watching your videos for a long time. But watching this today made me wish that I would’ve had the opportunity to work in a shop as a teenager like yours Matt. These boys are learning so much. Great job teaching these kids. These are skills I wish I knew how to do. But I’m pretty much past the age to do this now in life. Keep up the great videos Matt and crew.
The Chevrolet Corvette debuted as a concept “dream car” in 1953 at the General Motors Motorama show in New York. Following this, 300 Corvettes were hand built at GM's Flint, MI factory, releasing to the public on June 30, 1953.
First Corvette was in 1953. GM made 300 units.
Yup. Ed was right!
No, it's 1954 'cause Matt said so.
@@DMHltd No, Ed said that they had Corvair before they had Corvette. The first Corvair wasn't until 1959. Matt's right, at least about the order. Came here to say there was in fact a 1953 model year Corvette, but Dennis beat me to it.
Oh I guess I heard it backwords.
I always thought the "air" part of Corvair had to do with its air cooling.
The very first Corvette ever built was called EX-122, was a General Motors Motorama showcar and was first exhibited at the Waldorf Astoria in January of 1953.
I was given a blue jeep cherokee like this by my inlaws about 8 months ago. I called it the blueberry before ya'll mentioned it! Looking forward to copying some of your build.
😂😂😂 Just saw your comment! Totally works!
The first full-scale Corvette concept was displayed as a “dream car” at GM's Motorama in New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel in January. 1953. On June 30, the first production Corvette rolled off of the assembly line in Flint, Michigan.
Love seeing the boys working together as well as Jamie jumping in. So, is Kaitlyn no longer part of the team? Great build.
These build videos are so good. To see family members working together and learning skills they can use the rest of their lives! First class family time.
I know Tom Tom loves that drill press, and quite frankly I would be proud as can be if my drill press was that nice, but I think you should check out the air operated punch that Fab Rats just acquired. It punches very clean holes in a fraction of time as drilling in sheet steel. I have seen them punch some pretty thick material and I am impressed. Paul said it didn't really cost that much.
I love the look of the louvres on the CJ hoods. The black on yellow for the banana is so sharp. Hopefully Robby paints his royal blue with black or silver louvres.
OOOOOh that would look good!
As a dad trying to get my teenagers in the shop more, it’s really great to see how much work your boys put into learning this stuff. It’s damn inspiring Matt.
Shoutout to the filming and editing crew. They do a great job every video. Thanks for the content!!
Congratulations Matt, having your family working together is something to be proud of. 😂😂
Your whole team is fantastic to watch, congrats to all of you. 🥳🥳🥳👍👍👍🥂🥂
Ps, what's the story with Kaitlyn, we miss her.
I don't
I think she's a sweet girl with a lot going for her, but she doesn't seem to want to get her hands dirty like Lizzy did. I wish Lizzy all the luck in the world, but I do miss her.
@@CuriousMess61 Miss Lizzy too.
Here some advice, you should lower the ramp when installing tires, so you don’t hurt ur back from lifting them up. Unless you don’t mind worker’s Comp. and/or light duty work. Work smarter not harder lmao.
True, once you hurt your back, it's a lifelong battle.
I was wondering why he didn't lower the lift there. Lot easier to lower the lift than to lift four 37" tires mounted to wheels.
Good morning, Matt and crew. You guys have a great balance of content. BTW Wrecker Rick is getting nervous. He really wants to bring his build to the Off Road Games. He has not heard back from you. Have a great a safe week.
Corvette debut was 1953! '53 '54 and EARLY '55 were 6 cul.late '55 was a 265 V8. '56 and '57 were 283 Cu In V8
You guys always keep me motivated to upgrade my Jeep :-)
Me too. My wife is not very happy about it, but I am. 😁
New Tires:
Yellow dot is aligned with the valve stem of the wheel, which reduces balancing weights.
Red dot indicates the tire's highest point, which is the most imbalanced part.
Hope this helps!
1953. On June 30, the first production Corvette rolled off of the assembly line in Flint, Michigan.
Only 300 produced but they were '53's in any case; all were white with red interior.
That "Breaking News" @1:45 made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂 brilliant done!
Haven't seen Katlynn for a while.
She was on vacation when this was filmed
I love Rhett and Kaulin's little bit of talking and all work.
Huge props to the underdog editors… 20:46, a perfect sound track cut at a spark flash. Well done!
+1. Funny as hell. Fabulous editing on this one.
It's a great version. Any idea where I can hear the whole thing?
These kids are becoming fabricators before our eyes. Fun to watch them grow and develop skills. Matt leads as a true leader should. Explain or show how then let them go.
The giveaway is awesome!
Enjoying this build series. Can’t wait to see Robbie’s crew working it on recoveries. King Fred and Blueberry bringing back off the mountain!
Roby's xj should be called Dolly like the cloned sheep.
Isnt there a entire box of lug nuts in the conex on the left near the back second shelf down 4.7 feet from the back
I always thought the hood vents on the Bannana were floor vents from a house😂, now I know they're from a Corvair, but they still look like floor vents from a house😂. And Jaime was right, the sensors are getting put on the new rims!, it's not a wheel until the tire is on the rim and the rum is on the hub, thats when it can be considered a wheel. Crazy how many automotive enthusiasts don't know the differences between a tire, a rim and a wheel 😂
First Corvette 1953, my Mom worked at the factory in St. Louis (in the office) at that time.
I want to give a special shout-out to the editing team. I know there's a lot of footage you have to cut out. And all the special little inserts to give the show that pop is awesome. So thank yo.
I'd have to agree 100%, MOOR has some awesome editors. Also, the camera-persons put in a lot of work, too.
General off-road question. I was going to get a set of bead locks for my jeep but was told they aren’t street legal. When Matt mentioned driving the gladiator home if you win, I thought I would ask this question here knowing someone who watches this channel would know the answer.
That is a good question and one that I do not know the answer to. I hope that by me replying your question will get noticed.
Seems to me I see beadlocks all around the roads and highways here in Maine.
Just drive safely and follow the speed limit and all other driving laws. Most law enforcement doesn't care. They are looking for drunks, guys running drugs, stolen vehicles and speeders.
I'm pretty sure there are off-road only beadlocks and DOT approved beadlocks
@@Berm_BlasterI know there are simulated bead locks on the market that look to the average eye like real bead locks. Is that what you mean by street legal bead locks?
Many years ago a neighbor with an original 1953 Corvette roadster would come by once a week in fair weather. Even in 1978 they were considered special. They were white with gravel guards on the headlights. 235 ci Blue Flame Six.
Very cool to see all 4 of the young men (brothers) on the same video!!!!!
Rhett welds as good as his big brother Rudy. Excellent!
And almost as good as Lizzy!
Deja Blue is coming out great, awesome to see Rudy in the shop too! Matt the reason you're having trouble welding onto the Jeep is that the tub and a lot of the panels are probably galvanized. Welding galvo is just a pain, not much you can do about it. Make sure you guys have plenty of ventilation in the shop when doing so, the fumes are muy malo!!
Haven't watched the video yet, but here's my short list. Door handles that stick, door hinge welds that break, piston slap on startup, wiring that is too short/prone to breaking, overheating and cylinder head cracks between valves, due to air bubbles in the cooling system, a fiberglass rear hatch that weighs a ton and wears out even the best lift assists. Like I said, it's the short list.
Is Katelyn gone ?
Vacation
Rhett and Kaulin are doing great in their fabrication skills and their welding. The XJ is taking shape and I look forward to seeing the finished product.
Great, another raffle youtube channel! We never have enough of those! /s
Side note, the video title used to be : "I'm Building A 80 000$ Jeep FOR YOU!!!"
3:28 I really like how well the holes line up with the sharpue thats drawn on to show where they go!
Glad to see your kids being taught how to do mechanical work instead of sitting playing games on their computer all day
Good job
$80,000 and Jeep should not be in the same sentence.
🥱
Trick for figuring out half of a number you don't know... put the measuring tape on an angle from end to end comprising of a number that is more easily divisible by 2 and that's your centre.
1st year for Corvette, 1953, they made 300, all white w/red interior. Straight 6 engine, w/automatic/power glide transmission. There was no 1983 Corvette. First V8, 1955, first 4 speed, 1957, first fuel injection, 1957.
‘53 Corvette Matt.
There were only a few hundred built but it was the first year.
Now if a new vehicle is started at the end of June it will be the next years model.
My brother Matt.... The C1 Corvette was introduced in June of 1953 and originally were assembled in Flint, Michigan.
Controlled aggression, flex is good, wobbly is bad. Flex is the ability to move and return to its original shape. Thanks for sharing.
When welding the stiffener plates on the crossmember it appeared that the perimeter welds were not contiguous. The non welded section will allow moisture to get into and between the material causing possible rust out in the future.
When an old pressure grease fitting is missing. You hit it with a high-pressure fitting and it works just fine. I’ve been doing this in aviation for the last 44 years giving away my age you’re pretty smart Matt.
There's the difference between Aus and U.S. That Jeep Gladiator is immediately illegal here in Aus. The tyres are bigger than we are allowed here by 2 inches and they stick out past the guards (fenders). Plus they are only allowed to carry under 500 kg here so all that takes off how much you can pack in!
54' 🤔... In 1952 the EX-122 concept car, which had been in development since 1951 and is the first of the hand-built Corvettes, is officially named “Corvette” after a type of fast warship. GM used the “EX” codes to name the EXperimental vehicles before they received a definitive name. Sports car aficionado and GM Vice President Harley Earl is the major force behind the design and development of the vehicle. Together with Bob McLean Earl formed a team that would be responsible for realizing the EX-122. On January 10, 1953, the Corvette concept car debuts at GM Motorama in New York City.
Tom: safety glasses around that drill press, man! Love, mom.
Am really happy meeting again you all in this video and always on the same way , having pleasure to help people in the wild !!!
like it when kaulin & rhet fabricate it just adds that much more to there expierence ther list of what there good at has to make matt & jamie really proud !
It's always great to see Jamie. She has such a great smile. Probably because everyone there is always in such a good mood. Stress free workplace
The "kids" are learning really well under Matts tutelage...well done dad.
Really cool to see Jaimee wrenching...great video.
Dude. What's half of 30? What's half of 3?. Add them together.
It's ok - My dad taught me to break #'s down into manageable parts about 45 years ago.
1,567 divided by two? 750 + 33.5 = 783.5 -OR to MULT - 783.5 x 3 = (700x3)2100 + (80x3) 240 + (3.5x3) 10.5 = 2,350.5 For dividing / multiplying by 2-3-4 it works good. Start to break down with 5 and above. Clif Clavin here. I'm compelled to share this when anyone struggles is simple math.
Despite everyone having a calculator in their pocket these days, it's handy for when you dont. I'm 'm sure there are even better math tricks, but thats the one I use.
I love this channel. Being Real enough to publish that clip is Gold.
And Matt: How can what you're doing to Deja' be "wrong"? Doubt it. You've got a bigass yellow prototyping rig / beta test unit in your yard that's been thru the ringer. I presume you've broke most everything that's gonna break on that, so Deja is already getting the result of that knowledge. (I know you were just being humble when you said it..)
Great video you guys rock with all these young guys being so skilled and having papa bear who knows so much cutting through any problem quickly with minimal bureaucratic waffling👍👍
"Lunchtime so I can work without all the noise" -- spoken like a true engineer!
The first use of the Corvair nameplate was the fastback coupe concept of the C1 Corvette.
I noticed a Corvair for sale just outside of Princeton, Kentucky. Didn't stop to check the asking price. It's only 1,685 miles from Hurricane, UT.
I see Kaulin is a lot more involved now. I am glad to see him and that he has recovered so well. I also like it when he teams with Rudy. However, Is Katelyn still working there?
1953. The first full-scale Corvette concept was displayed as a “dream car” at GM's Motorama in New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel in January. 1953. On June 30, the first production Corvette rolled off of the assembly line in Flint, Michigan.
A few videos ago Matt mentioned that he wanted to build a Baja Corvair. Way back in the early 1970's my best friend's brother in-law did just that. He shortened the wheel base, cut off the top, welded the doors shut, cut the wheel wells, put on bigger/wider tires and lifted it. He said it performed well, handed well and was a blast to drive. I found a picture of a car online that looked very much like my friend's brother-in-law's car. I was going to attach the picture but I can't find a way to do so in the comments. But go to Google and Google shortened wheelbase corvair, and it will show up. The one in the picture still has the top on and the doors are not welded. But the wheelbase is very close to the car I saw back in the 70's. I hope you find this helpful.
Tom
Making progress have a good week and count your blessings amen. 🙂👍
sorry Matt, Corvette 1953 first year only in white color, red interior. love corvairs, sipder with the 4 speed. you got any laying around
Major props to Matt for teaching his sons how to be proper young men. And very useful skills, it’s awesome to see how much he gets them involved in these projects and recoveries there gonna grow up to be great individuals
My dad was known for his welding and I held a lot of parts as he welded. But, I was not taught to weld until power mechanics in high school. He wasn't known for his patience!
1) Matt has a pretty decent singing voice. 2) The instrumental music playing in the background with all the hacking and cutting going on was hilarious.
