One of the reasons I like Fab Rats is that they are real. They make mistakes just like everyone else and admit it.
You rock. I think I've seen almost all of the videos.
So many people in the comments get butt hurt about seeing the mess ups like they don't do it themselves. Messing up is apart of life and learning!
Im just happy to see im not the only one that takes his anger out on things with a BFH!!! LOL
@@warrenmichael918 Sorry...What kind of hammer was that???
@@cotton-Dave Big F*&^ing Hammer =BFH
@@warrenmichael918 Yeah yeah. I got it. I was trying to make a joke. Whoosh!!!
Good thing my parents raised me right. Tommy boy "rest in peace big guy"
Need sleepy...!
Yup Tommy Boy and Rest In Peace Chris. Talented man gone too soon
Timmy Boy.
Looked far too long to find this comment. I was hoping it'd be higher given how amazing Farley was. Whenever I knock on my buddies doors I always say "housekeeping" and the rest of the exchange.
@@brianblank9921 haha for sure. My dad was a big ole guy. Reminded me alot of Chris farley. And we would always go quad riding and for some reason my dad would always wear coats to small and by the time he was a 12 pack deep he was dancing in the mud saying big guy in a little coat and just rip it open or something silly lmao. He'd never let me forget that movie. Sadly he's passed but it brings back memories🥰
Thanks to Randall this transmissions life doesn’t have to end in tragedy today. Good catch on the filter! Love the videos!!
Enjoy your work did it 50 years cant anymore to stiff arthritis and had cancer 4 years survivor. 64 was my first car my grandads after he passed wish i could lay some rubber and cruise bring back those great times, keep up the great work.
Tommy Boy is the movie you were quoting sir! Lovin' this build. Also love the fact you told us about the old transmission, it's good to know I'm not the only one who occasionally loses my cool and creates a bunch more work.
Just love Randall, he’s the kind of friend that you wish your kids will find. Loyal and supportive, funny when the chips are down.
Fab Rats is the channel for sharing with friends ! Thanks !
and totally loving it when he can ask that question. "do you not need that filter?" I am sure it was a great Randall cackle.....
Another reason this is one my favorite tubers. Everyone makes mistakes, owning up to it the first part, the second is learning from it.
That's one of them "modern" 727's with the removable bell housing.
I see the pain and frustration in your face Paul, some days definitely be that way. As always your particular style and your wonderful crew make these videos a joy to watch. Keep on keeping on!
This project brings back memories. Back in the early 80's me and a friend did the same thing to his dads Dodge Diplomat after the 318 threw a connecting rod. We put a 440 that had a mild build in it. He was expecting a 360 I had in a wrecked Ramcharger. We didn't tell his dad we decided to put a 440 in it. Believe one too many cold ones had something to do with that decision. His dad was pissed when we told him what we put in that car until his dad fired that Diplomat up. The smile on his dads face I'll remember forever. He done a little hotrodding back in his younger days. His dad carpooled and his buddies had a blast when it was WD's week to drive. Ole WD was a hoot of ole man and he got a little younger that day. Love seeing these old cars fixed up and kept on the road. Man I miss those days when you could pick up a 60 or70 model car or truck and build a beast for cheap. Sell it and do it all over again. Keep these great vids coming y'all!
Lifelong Mopar fan here... they do make ya work for it. Glad to see you tackling such a great build. Whether you do it once, twice, or thrice to get it right it is fully entertaining and makes us feel human. Love the channel and the honest content. Oh, and Randall really cracks me up!
One of my favorite channels. Paul is a super humble guy. Love all the content
Again, with the great editing! The transmission eulogy in b&w was a nice story-telling touch. Paul's voice over, while the remedy for a technical issue, was awesome...RIP phone cam!
I love how Paul goes with the flow and doesn't panic when something doesn't go well. He always has a backup plan and generally parts to fall back on. This is by far one of the best channels to follow.
I feel for you Paul, but we’ve all been there too and I appreciate you sharing your human moments because certainly we can all relate.
Its always a adventure to watch your videos, the nice thing is your never afraid to admit your mistakes. It makes the rest of us guys that like to DYI feel normal ! Keep doing what you do. We'll keep watching.
Tommy Boy is one of the all time Classics from way back in the day. Love the build and real life ups and downs.
Fat guy in a little jacket,,,
Nothing goes as planned. You make us all feel better by being a normal human being Paul. I did a motor swap last year and crushed my transmission pump with the torque converter during the install, I felt like a dope, had to pull the tranny and rebuilt it while I was in there, good thing because the planetary gear was loose as a goose, then when I installed it it had no reverse, turns out I compressed the teflon rings on the input shaft too much with my homemade clamp and sleeve tool, so had to pull the trans and yank the pump (I finally sprang for the $40 sizing tool that I was too cheap to buy the first time) and redo the rings. The struggle is real folks, and Paul just doesn't edit it out
My grandpa could fix just about anything. He always used to say, "You know you're a good mechanic if you've taken something apart, then put it back together and it still works even though there are extra pieces!"
You done SPLODED IT!
I had a Torqueflight 727 in my 1979 Scout II and it was bombproof. Loved that truck.
This is why I love this channel. You guys show the real side of mechanic work. We all forget parts all the time especially when you have one that is giving you trouble and you want it to just be done. Also tommy boy is my favorite Chris Farley movie.
I really enjoyed Paul's voice over. The sound quality skyrockets up and the detail provided is helpful for guys like me who are intimidated by just a brake job. Keep 'em coming! =)
Nice. I actually enjoy seeing mistakes and such.
You guys are honest hard workers.
It helps us guys at home too.
Good to know what you can and can't do , when things don't go as planned.
Happens a lot in the average Joes garage.
Great content. Keep up the great work!
Doing it twice , to make it right. Feller has to make it right. Love you guys. Best videos that I watch every time you put them out. Paul you have a great ethics on doing things right. I had a Dodge Coronet when I was a young man. Always loved it.
Do it twice. My goodness. Love it.
Love that smile as he says 'gently tapped' funny, great attitude
That is why I watch fab rats, its the honest good home feeling I get ,and the great motivation I get on my own projects..thank you guys for the knowledge and fun..
Thanks for sticking with it Paul…sharing your failings along with your winnings…good job!
Paul, thanks for keeping it real. Lord knows I’ve experienced my share of “take it out on the closest inanimate object” frustration! Plus working in a Tommy Boy AND a Pinky and the Brain reference? Solid gold!
It takes a real man to make a mistake and not only admit it but show you on camera. Can’t wait to see the Mopar and the Yota completed. We will see Paul doing burnouts and climbing mountains of boulders very soon.
Thanks FabRats I really enjoy every episode on the big screen.
"Housekeeping, you need fresh towels?" Love Tommy Boy. great movie...and we all have those days of frustration!
You want mint for pillow? Tommy Boy, great movie.
I can't get over how cool that car is!! Awesome show as always!!
Paul, no mater what obstacle you encounter, you find a way to conquer it , keep up the good effort. I have learned so much from your channel
We’ve all (those that admit it) have been there. Keep up the good honest work 👍🏻👍🏻
Just admit that it was "A Murphy Day" like I get at times. lol
My name is Daniel and I just saw that I drove right by your house on my way to Arizona yesterday. I love watching you build things and you have given me a lot of ideas for me to do to my 1985 GMC Jimmy.
Love all the builds! Can’t wait to see the Yota with the new motor
It tickles me pink to see somebody screw up like I screw up and then have to go back do it the right way love what y’all are doing keep up the good work
You all are great! Love seeing the process even when things don't go the way you intended because that's life and it actually inspires me more so persist when things don't go your way. Also man a give away sounds amazing and super generous. That kind of thing could LITERALLY change someone's life. I know it would mine. A bunch of us can relate. That's super nice of yall to give back.
I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we appreciate both your attention to detail and also your inattention to detail and how you go back and show us where you went wrong. Thank you, Paul!
I truly enjoy your videos, if you screw up you don't try to hide it like a lot of tv shows do. I also like the way you figure things out with good used parts instead of just buying all brand new stuff.
I could watch yall all day, every day. Great content. Whoever wins this car will be one lucky person!
Awesome job Paul!! I absolutely love it when you always are able to find some how to make something work with what you have on hand!! Lots of people don’t do that these days they just end up going and buying the Wright parts instead of just making it work with what they have!!! Your way is the same way I like to do things also!! Heck it usually ends up saving you money and you can get things done faster usually instead of weighting on parts!!! I keep say we love doing the same things in life!!! Well remember keep up all the hard work buddy!!!! I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how a person is able to win the car not because I’d definitely like to have the car to replace my dart that I was so stupid for selling but to definitely have the chance to meet you all for sure!!!
Keep up the good work! I definitely know that things never seem to go right. I took a break from working on my project to watch you working on yours. Because mine wasn't going right. The 454 I'm trying to fit into my M715 is hitting the firewall. It's always something. Good luck on the rest of the build!
I agree. It seems like Paul has been a little down. I think he's just got too many irons in the fire. Hopefully he'll get some time off and have some down time at the Easter jeep meet.
This channel is the absolutely best. The honesty of Paul and everyone else is real and that's why I love watching every episode and I don't miss any THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH GOD BLESS YOU
Glad to see the giveaway project is coming along fine & it’s always entertaining in whatever you got going on in your lives! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride!
Looks like in one part Paul was using the old dial calipers I gave him at the Jeep Jamboree in January! Nice to see it get more use with him than in my toolbox!👍😉
I've been through that torque converter fight! It was many years ago and I learned an expensive lesson I'll never forget! Keep up the fight and enjoy it while you're young it only gets more complicated as you get older and smarter!
Just wanted to say first off to theFab rat’s family you guys are my kind of people good wholesome down to earth people and Paul answer to your question what movie that was that would’ve been Tommy boy One of my all-time favorites but my favorite part was with the 2 x 4 do I have a mark on my face😂🤔🤩🙏🏼
Dang, Paul, sounds like you are a bit down, a lot too hard on your self. Maybe too many projects? Too much pressure? I really love your videos, and I hope that you can find a balance between your goals and the time it takes to do it right (even if it is twice).
Love that y'all are real!
Keep up the good work and enjoy 😁👍👍
Whats cool about this channel is everyone in the family is involved in with it. To bad we don't see more of that. Keep up the good work! Love your projects!
i really like that you are building this car the way most normal people have to build one. not everyone can just buy new stuff for everything.
I always like watching your channel even when you have little mishaps you know they happen to the best of us but I like that you keep a positive attitude
You certainly are persistent Paul... and isn't it wonderful to have friends who also have lots of spare parts, and for free too... Thanks for sharing the good news... and not so good news...
this is gonna be an epic give away!
love what you do and how you even show when things don't go right......just like the rest of us!
Been watching Merlin’s videos. That dude’s a stud!! Y’all are a couple of extremely talented dudes. For real! He lives where I grew up so seeing his water/lake/boat/car show videos just give me a pit in my tummy. Spent some time in St George too so seeing yours and Matt’s videos leave me with the same sensation. We’re in south central TX near San Antonio now. It’s nice to see the old places we called home. Y’all keep on being you. Much love from TX!!
Ouch! I admire the way you navigate all the twists and turns this build has thrown at you..it demonstrates great skill and ability..and some good editing too! The hard work will definitely be worth it..what a gem of a car!
I can't wait to drive my Coronet. LOL It was like you were talking right to me Paul. That dude that gave you the torque converter seemed like a very nice guy. seems the more down to earth the people are the more giving they are. I pray he is blessed for giving that to you. And Mom needs to keep coming around so my car gets on the road quickly. LOL Love this channel and pray for you all often.
Automatic transmissions have always been a mystery to me… I leave them to the professionals lol
Nice work guys!
@Chris W After I got out of the Navy in 78, I took 2 years vocational school for auto mechanics. I have I don't know how many hours of classroom time on automatic transmissions and have rebuilt 3, full rebuilds, They all worked BTW), and I still think it is based on black magic. lol
Can't wait for these ads to go away to start watching, been waiting half the day.... Also can't wait for the giveaway that will be one LUCKY person!! Thanks Paul and crew for the content!
I love that yall don't hide the mess ups makes yall seem more like real mechanics. Keep on keeping on ole boys. Love the show. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Love that you don’t edit out the real world problems when it comes to working on cars , problem solving is a major issue that shouldn’t be left out !
Keep up the amazing content !
Been there.. done that. I completely get it. Thanks for keeping it real guys.. people forget how frustrating fixing up cars is. That beast is coming along nicely. I wish I was state side, I would definitely enter, but if I were to win it, getting it to New Zealand would be a real bummer as, if memory serves, Coronet's don't float too well. Keep up the great work!!
Attach enough pontoons I saw a video of the coast guard intercepting a bunch of Cubans with a 50 Chevy pickup floating using barrels to keep it floating it hurt to watch them sink that straight beauty
Always nice to see Paul working on my car!
sorry my car! lol
Learning alot from my man Paul! Keep up the good work y'all love the channel!
You guys are a fun bunch! Wish I was a neighbor, I'd be helping every day. Love the coronet, it's from my era and never had the chance to have a 440 car. It's really cool of you guys to give it away. Keep up the fun and good work.
I've got to say I really enjoy your videos. Just nice and fun to watch and wholesome. Also your knowledge of cars and fabrication is incredible.
We've all had to teach a project who is boss from time to time!
Freakin’ awesome to see “Grandma” at the shop again….. y’all are great!! 😉👍
I may be the reason I can't have nice things....that's hilarious 🤣
I'm starting to understand that a good day at the shop is when you don't have to take something apart and put back together 2 or 3 times. They say practice makes perfect. Well you Paul are a master at entertainment. Does the car come with a warranty?
Garranteed to make you smile every time it cranks up.
It was good to see Pauls’s mother there and looking pretty well. When Paul starts at 440 there is nothing better sounding like 440. Tell Paul never ever ever say things are doing well today compared to yesterday
5:55 "house keeping, do you need your feller fluffed?" Tommy Boy. Great movie, RIP Chris Farley.
Love watching these. Keep making those mistakes, I'm learning so much from them :) my favourite channel by far.
The cornet is definitely coming along for sure!! Definitely looking awesome also!! I’d definitely love to win that car so I can run around with all the dodge boys in my Nabor hood!!! Lol!! I went to school with a couple big dodge fans for sure!! They were the ones that I had baught my Dodge Dart swinger from that I’d like to still kick my self in the rear for selling!! :( :(!!!!
B&M makes a bolt-on bell housing that may allow you (or someone) to save the rest of that broken transmission housing.
Ultrabell
Ah, the Mopar learning curve… if you love Mopar you know the curve. I had a bit of a chuckle when you introduced the Cornet and called yourself a Mopar guy. Good for you for sticking it out, and reach out for help on the forums…Mopar guys are evangelical with their hard won knowledge.
45 minutes away? That sounds like nearly every trip we make away from the house. Glad to see your perseverance hanging in there and that Randall is keeping you on your toes That's gonna be someone's pride and joy when you get it done and delivered.
I have suffered from the "falling hammer" destroying some lawn mower and motorcycle cast aluminum crankcases in the past. seems it's always something so stuck ends up trying everything and I have also smashed one once because I forgot a bolt hidden under 35yrs of gunk haha Chuck it up to shit happens
THANK GOD YOU GUYS ARE OKAY...!!!
I DIDN'T SEE THAT YOU POSTED YOUR VIDEO THIS MORNING SO I POSTED YOUR PHOTOS ON THE MILK CARTON...
SEE PEOPLE,, IT WORKS.. WHEN 1 OF OUR FAVORITE CHANNEL GOES MISSING, YOU CAN'T GO WRONG BY POSTING THEIR PICTURE AND INFO ON A MILK CARTON...!!!!
GLAD TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE POSTED TODAY,, I GOT WORRIED...!!!!
I started watching fabrats when you got the golden nugget. Now I can't stop watching your videos they are real and very entertaining. Thank you.
Thanks for making me smile every time I watch! I’m feeling inspired to rip into a project of my own!
Good job preserving through the transmission debacle. Keep up the hard work sir.
Obviously the movie is "Tommy Boy"
One problem, once I win it.. How am I going to bring it back to Canada? 😆
Easy, I'm going to win it. There's no Canada. It's a practical joke by North Dakota.
I thought paul said they were delivering it to the winner!
don't worry about getting it to Canada, He is just having to bring it up to Seattle.
@@Mike_Gray68 you misspelled Delaware.
I feel your pain on transmissions. I had nearly my entire 727 rebuilt when I suddenly found a tiny ball bearing sitting on the bench. Paul knows where those go. 😂😂
Wow. That was a bit of a challenge. A few mistakes, but Paul always figures it out. Way to go. Persistence wins! Great job!
I was born in the 60s, grew up learning Dodge’s quirks with part swapping, then got lost on my C-10 build, I guess it’s what you learn first lol.
GREAT CONTENT!
I got out of the Navy in 1972 and bought a new Plymouth Duster with the slant six, three on the floor. I ran the fire out of that thing and loved every minute. Haven't had a Chrysler product since.
it took me three days to change a transmission in an plymouth, with tons of cussing and cut fingers, it was a freebee. I should've bought one that fit. it worked in the end . Thanks for sharing your knowledge .
I too, have had mechanical malfunctions due to over use of a B.F.H. ( Big Freaking Hammer) Take time, walk away, have a dew, laugh at your mistake, keep on gaining. Love your channel.
Love the build and how honest each challenge you face is shown! Love the channel!
LOL!! Tommy Boy!! A great movie!! Just wish Chris Farley was still around!!
paul so glad you are taking the time to do it as many times as it takes to make a awesome rig for one of your blessed subscribers
I can relate to the level of frustration you must've felt. Sometimes you just need to go for a drive. I especially like skipping stones at the lakeside to recover.
All I heard was house keeping and Chris Farley comes to mind.... loved Tommy Boy growing ..... loving the builds guys.
I did, I figured you would notice it on the bench. I rebuilt automatics for 35 years on your favorite Fords! Been there done that Paul the only issue I see is the more times it comes apart more problems are created at least that how it worked for me.
Bummer😦 I knew you could get it all working. You are amazing.👍
Love how you keep your cool, your head up and learn from your mistakes
This is a sweet build. I have wanted one of these for years. In high school my first truck was a 72 dodge 100 with a short bed and a slant 6.. put a 360 in it.. I then had a 74 Ram Charger pulled the 360 out of that and put a MUCHO GRANDE HP 440 in it and messed the frame up bad with that engine.. Didn't support the frame with the extra ponies.. :( .. Moved that engine to a long bed 2wd 3/4 ton dodge.... I miss my old dodges. Back then I swear I could buy any old truck for $500 running or not. Simple days -- NO AC - Carburetor - gas was $1/ gallon and met friends at Fred Meyers on main street to cruise-
Well, Been There and Done that, Keep on Keeping on. Looking forward to seeing it on the road. I respect that your real.
That car is so cool! I bet it's going to be really fun to drive. Somebody is gonna be extremely lucky to get that thing to drive and tinker on. I really like how it's not super shiny but in the right places and how it's just a good solid car you dont find them like that anymore i think it should be driven and just preserved the way it is. I've been dreaming about building a car like that, I'm definitely a mopar guy but we have 4x4s.
I'm really pleased you're doing a good job on my car, thanks guys - only kidding, I live in Oz, so don't comply with the rules.
