  •  Sometimes I get caught up in the amount of fun I’m having and decide to break whatever is causing the fun. And because I’m only human I have to live with the consequences. so today we are fixing the sand rail as a consequence of my mistake.  But we have a lot of fun doing it.

    Watching you and your dad work together almost brought tears to my eyes. I hope you don't ever forget how absolutely invaluable memories like that are! In fact, after you read this, you should go give your dad a huge hug, whether he likes it or not.

    • @61rampy65

      Mine carries the plate from the donor bug it was built from. Never have been questioned. I live in the Cascades in Western Washington. I've had it in Vegas, Baja, and Sand Hollow. I just make sure I'm driving respectful. NO HOTROD ANTICS ON THE ROAD!
      Was told once in WA, at a gas station by state patrol, my lack of fenders could be an issue. But only if they were causing a problem. Meaning only when raining or on a dusty dirt road kicking up debris.
      Have fun all.

    Matt Wetzil, March 11, 2023: "I have a hard time keepin track of what day it is and what time it is, but I know where my Corvair parts are." Earlier Rudy was saying (more or less), 'My dad has this uncontrollable thing about Corvairs - if anyone asks for or needs help working on them, he can't help himself, he just Has to do it. '
    Hurray for SouthWest Utah Off Road trekkers, racers, rescuers, fans, etc. !!

  • @Jim-fe2xz
    @Jim-fe2xz 3 месяца назад +2

    Alternate method for pilot bearing removal - grab a handful of paper out of your shredder & put it in a bucket of water to soak. Take a break for lunch and use your bread for a sandwich. After lunch stuff the soggy paper into the bearing & from there the process is the same. Great that your dad is the hoarder of most every used Corvair and their spare parts LOL!

    @Mr.Mitch1111 3 месяца назад

    the idea in the technique of using the bread is similar to the trick I learned for that situation. In my learning the tools were the thickest grease on hand and a solid bar to use as the driver. When you pack the grease (or bread in your case) into the cavity, then drive a solid rod into the cavity, you create hydraulic pressure that acts on the inner face of the bearing sleeve needing removal.

    At 76 Im still learning lots about vehicles more so Corvairs. You just don't see many Corvairs here In England. But I hope your Dad kindly explained about abusing your sand buggy, but yes I know it was fun - while it lasted. OK, colours. I raced In 4 different formulas here In Hot Rod class, "Banger class" which saloon cars or estates (sedans or wagons In American) racing 1/4 mile ovals but full hard contact Is allowed - great fun, and I also raced single seat Stock Cars with big push bars all around it, very good fun, but, my racing colours were Purple and yellow. Yellow roof and roof supports the body purple. Love your channel, so different to your dads or fab rats.. To include Merlin's also. All good in their own way. thank you.

    Pulling wheelies is a blast. I don't know of a person who did ride a wheelie that did think of the cost first thing. They just wanted to ride, and once you do you understand why.
    I didn't expect anything less Rudy. You wouldn't have been Rudy if you weren't chasing fun. I mean Adventures is in your channel name, right.

      You must not have warched old MORR videos then. Rudy was a regular on MORR for the first years, both doing fabrication and off-road recoveries. But the he decided to spread his wings and leave MORR to start on his own with this RAD channel instead. Rudy is Matt's oldest son from a previous relationship (his mum is Canadian, and Rudy has lived in Canada too).
      Rudy has 3 younger half-brothers on his dad's side, Kaulin, Rhett, and Karter. Since Rudy left the MORR channel, Kaulin and Rhett has started featuring more and MORR on the channel, while the youngest brother Karter still only does a short cameo once in a while whitout saying much. Rudy's previous girlfriend was also part of the MORR channel mostly filming, from time to time, while his new girlfriend ofte films for this RAD channel.
      We know Rudy also has a younger half-brother on his mother's side, as he has featured on this RAD channel filming etc.
