    Those pull point 'D-rings' out on the corners of the frame look 'SKETCHY' Rob...I hope you get under there and put some gussets in or your going to pull that body & frame out of square.
    Then your going to have a broken Kitty! 😎👍710

    I can't wait for the off-season to see the Snow Cat rebuilt and painted. Gonna look so sick!
    Edit* would be a great time to do some upgrades like adding a better windshield wipers with a strong wiper motor, some LED exterior lights all around, a newer fuel injected motor. Some creature comfort stuff like padded seats in the back, interior lighting etc.

  • @craigt6707
    @craigt6707 Год назад +35

    I would love to see a full build on whiskers, and I think a lot of other people would too. Maybe put in a new engine and drive train, new lighting, and just fix everything else up. Obviously it's a work vehicle so keep focus on that aspect. Maybe add some tool storage and other utilities that you would need on recoveries. I'm sure it would get you a ton of views to help with the cost.

    • @josephina24

      You can't beat the torque of a Ford 300 inline six cylinder, though (which I think would be more important for the Snow Cat). Maybe keep the inline 6 & consider an aftermarket intake with a Holley Sniper EFI upgrade for reliability?

    In 1939 Los Angeles my father got a job working at the original Earl Scheib Paint & Autobody. Learning to do upholstery there you got a job working at Douglas aircraft working on dc-3s before the war upholstering the seats with leather.

    Robby this was a fun video getting progress on the snow cat and the jeep you guys are building. I always look forward to your videos.
    I give the lovely boss credit she definitely isn't afraid to put the work in and get her hands dirty. I think it is a great thing to have her more involved than just holding the camera. I always enjoy seeing her beautiful smile.

  • @keithlea6804

    That snowcat was popular in Minnesota and Wisconsin back in the day. Could contact the junkyards to find out who deals with old snowcats. Seen many on the trails in the 60s and 70s in northern Minnesota. Bud Dixon has some videos on restoration of a couple of them. Knows who to go to to find parts for some of the hard too find stuff. Love his track build videos 👍

  • @johnlennon335
    @johnlennon335 Год назад +3

    I think you should install some idler support wheels on your snow-tracks. Enough on the left and right edges to support the track when going over ruts.

    Robby, there’s some liquid you can buy at the hardware store called Ospho, it neutralizes the rust and has a white powder residue that you wipe off! If provides a primer type of coverage that you can paint over it and be finished brother! I’ve used it and it worked great!

    The two videos featuring both you, your crew, and HeavyDSparks and his crew turned out to be my all-time favorite RUclips videos ever. You provided comedy, frustration, failure, and success, all the while never flinching or showing signs of quitting. These two videos were great entertainment.

It would be nice to have a lite plow on front of Whiskers for open a pathway for your recovery's to facilitate towing and pulling just a thought then you wouldn't have to worry about ruts from other equipment?

    Vinegar cleans rust away.

Great post as usual , keep em coming.

    Hahaha Earl Scribe he was a big thing when I was younger. I remember my friend taking his car to him for a paint job. And when he got it back we noticed that he had sprayed right over the bugs on the front of the hood. And it didn’t take long before it started to peel off the sides. Thanks for that memory.

    That's the only kind of paint I ever used. (the polyurethane you sprayed on Owen's Blazer) It was the standard at the time. You can also add gloss hardener to it before spraying. Clear coat isn't needed. Easy to use, quite durable. I would likely still use it.
