Prayers for Minnie and Pete. 🙏❤

[@christhompson4759]

Praying for Minnie! That little woman has already dealt with enough injuries and health problems! May God bless your beautiful soul Minnie! God please bless both Minnie and Pete through these times!

[@myfriendpete]

Yeah seems like one thing after another. Shes a TROOPER!

[@christhompson4759]

@@myfriendpete I believe she is your angel Pete! And I believe that you are her angel! Minnie will be okay Pete!

[@myfriendpete]

It's really sad but THE MONEY PIT has got to go.. It was a FUN BUILD and all the support I got doing this car was tramendus.. My heart goes out to everyone that purchased my ART work to build this car.. Maybe We'll build a new one, but till that time comes this one's got to go for Medical bills.. $$14,500.00 $$ If your serious and want to buy it contact Pete and lets TALK!

[@TurningGuns]

I honestly wish i had the money to buy that car and gift it right back to you Pete and Minnie.

[@myfriendpete]

That just brought a tear to my eye Billy.. Thanks for the thoughts!

[@kencraig7308]

I'm pretty sure he takes checks 👍

[@tomc7614]

I know you hate to see it go Pete. It’s one hell of a machine. However, you are a man whose priorities are in order. Take care of Minnie and the bills and you know as well as I that the rewards will be tenfold. God bless you both.

[@myfriendpete]

I don't want to sell it but Minnie is having some health issues and she's more important right now. Maybe we'll get some new toys later on

[@talesofanasphaltjockey]

Super cool , glad you kept the paint as she was , great move !

[@77chevy4x4]

Awesome work Pete ! Hope everything is gonna be better. Change sucks . !

[@JayDubCustoms]

I watched your “leaving Moab” video. I guess you took it down for whatever reason. You should consider Nashville. Great city, great state, nice weather, low taxes and Vet friendly.

[@theinsaneshecklador6598]

Sorry to hear about Minnie. Hopefully the money you get from this helps get her healed up quickly.

[@myfriendpete]

🙏🙏🙏🙏👍

[@bertalert341]

pete at 14:45 it looks like your front brake lines will rub on the arm as it goes up and down the full movement of the arm. It could be just the camera angle. You might want to check that.

[@myfriendpete]

Camera angle. No rubbing brake lines. Thanks for watching

[@hydroy1]

Boy Pete, when you called that thing the money pit, your not kidding. Wow ! glade it's not mine. Hooooly smokes.

[@kencraig7308]

Take the narrow road My friend Pete, for the wide path is the road to the lake of fire, possessions mean nothing, the love between you and Minnie is all that matters, you both have been through a rough spot in the last couple years, time to pray up and take care of your own 🙏☝️☝️

I haven’t been in your bug , but i have been in a few , my buddy has a 2021 razor 1000 orange and black all bells and whistles, i would sell the razor because it not comfy at all, just my opinion

[@russupsidedowntopbottom955]

you're alright Pete, after soo many episodes of ya doing nothing but trash talking the money pit now ya gonna sell it😥😥😥😥. Been there done that more times than i care to admit. I got 2 of my long time projects up on the sale block too. gotta keep the house going more than the hobby car

[@myfriendpete]

It's very depressing Russ...

[@charlesleake930]

Pete......who plays and sings the ' Bastard Bitch " song ......?

[@deankay4434]

That is one fun buggy! What was it, Toyota front seats with modified support brackets? I hope you have enough seat belt coverage to stay safe. We don't won't anything to happen to My Friend Pete, as we move forward thru life journey. It took work you was willing to invest into "Money Pit" but I am sure you will get lots of fun out of it! I hope Greg Highball will see this soon and understand that what he told you was wrong except for; "it's a VW and has special shocks on it! The rest It, well is fuzzy and don't remember exactly. Just note the compression, make sure the carbs are sync and check the oil often until you get use to what it does. Minnie, your trip to the Holy land will be here before you know it! Getting excited? God bless that opportunity, WoW! Blessings guys: DK Omaha.

[@diyautoschool]

Thanks for watching Dean.. The seats came out of a Saturn... Your the MAN!

Besides, you still got the Razor

[@jimkay5984]

That H ball is a pos. I hate to say it but you threw good money after bad on this one because the seller was a liar.

[@myfriendpete]

@@TurningGuns He's saying that the guy I got it from bullshitted me and I spent all that money for nothing and I got screwed.. Not that the car is a pile of shit....

[@TurningGuns]

@@myfriendpete I remember, I apologize if I'm wrong and that the car was misrepresented, it kinda was and I remember what you had to do to acquire it, but I've been excited about it from day one. Now that you're famous, maybe Barrett Jackson would be a good place. IDK.

[@TurningGuns]

@Jim Kay . Sorry about that man, I was probably wrong, my apologies.

[@myfriendpete]

@@TurningGuns no worrys Billy... The guy did bullshit me but I can't blame him for the trade out deal, it was my choice not his.. Take it easy buddy! If you want to know what the trade out price was it was $7,500.00 in labor charges toward his other car I built for him. So I have alot of money tied up in this BAJA not to mention my LABOR on restoring this car to what it is!

[@jimk7882]

@@TurningGuns No need to apologize!

[@pissoff234]

I thought you were never going to sell this?

[@myfriendpete]

Minnie has KIDNEY problems and it’s not mild. 🤷‍♂️

[@pissoff234]

@@myfriendpete Thats to bad for both of you I know how much you liked that bug. Ive watched you for years now and never seen you really want anything for yourself. Hope she gets better.
