Final Push To Get To The Wrecker Games Proves CATASTROPHIC For The Rat Rod Wrecker!

[@nathanrieck2112]

Big props to the editor for always going back in past footage to find these flashbacks. They really make the show all that much better! We appreciate it!

[@paulhall170]

Michelle and her sister (?) are weapon's grade editors LOL

[@colleensorensen5243]

It’s her cousin that helps her edit.

[@garlandremingtoniii1338]

I couldn’t agree more with you my friend!!

[@karnedge101]

The music is gotta go. Sorry this isn’t mtv.

[@thejasoncusterband3073]

​@The bigdawg if it were MTV there would be no music. It should stay.

[@TrevorDGanz]

The way Paul handles set backs is inspiring. Most people would lose their mind but Paul simply gets to work!

[@DIRTVENTURE]

I had all the wiring sorted out on my jeep and it smoked the wiring ...... new harness going in

[@anotherdave5107]

I'd could never be a mechanic. I could never notice subtle changes to bends in linkages like that.

[@DIRTVENTURE]

@@anotherdave5107 yeah well Paul did not see it at first either... unless you build or work on transmissions anyone would of missed that

[@edwardcokley9224]

​@@DIRTVENTURE idk what I would've done but it would've involved every 4 5 and 6 letter word known to man and some that wouldn't have been came up with yet

[@edwardcokley9224]

I wish I could handles set backs the same way. I've grown alot over the years but they still tend to involve body or new windows cause of my temper. Remember I smashed my hand when I ratchet slip while my windshield guy was installing a new front glass. Got P.O'd threw the wrench it bounced almost in slow motion you could've seen us both move out of the way as the ratchet bounced and came past us and broke it. Anger was gone I don't think I've laughed so hard in years. Crazy laughing it off and oh well never seems to come 1st like with paul

[@Legacy4x4andOffRoadYT]

The smile at 15:46 is such a relatable have defeat feeling in a project haha

[@89G]

I absolutely LOVE that tribute to GPASHERM. He would be so proud of that wrecker!

[@anotherdave5107]

He shoulda bought more lights

[@andrewgilbreath1331]

Came to say the same thing, that's awesome, looks great guys.

[@supersport1986]

That is an awesome touch Paul! Just wouldn't be right without it. Love the truck such an awsome build!

[@davidburchfield2720]

Man I love the light cover when I saw them my. Eye's got wet great tribute ❤

[@89G]

@@davidburchfield2720 I agree! So awesome

[@mikemathis3936]

I could not be more disappointed in you than I am right now Paul. For the very first time you worked on a vehicle, took it for a test ride and simply called it good to go. WHERE IS THE BURNOUT MISTER?!~?!?!?

[@eotwawki9238]

Nice dedication on the kc light covers. You and Ben did a good job. Enjoying what you do makes life more enjoyable.

[@richardthomas1743]

HEY! Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to Fab Rats! 👍👀

[@JanelleVocate-Ames]

Ah, look at us, you're 1st-Matt right behind, and ME....seems like alls right with the world!

[@jkmcp45]

Paul and Ben I’m not one for handing out compliments so this is one of my rare compliment handing out moments and your Dad is looking down with tears in his eyes from the amount of pride he has ,for what his sons have taken a thought or a vision of a on/off road wrecker, a tool to be used and admired something that was dreamed about in their minds and has been put together by his sons and grandchildren a family project that keeps on going through the generations yes sir you have a sweet unit be proud of what your family has created

[@anthonyfreeman5858]

It’s cool that Papa Dar can come to your shop, get relaxed & take a nap. He feels safe around you & Ben (pretty much anyone else in the shop) to take a nap. That’s nice.

[@SmokingMan26]

Really love the way the Rat wrecker turned out.

[@corybruinsma8979]

Love the tow truck, my favorite part is the GPASHERM KC light covers. a small but awesome knod to your dad

[@wYatt121509]

Love the K.C. light covers. Doing honor to our elders, living or passed, is paramount in my book. God bless you and yours.

[@JCPaintGuy]

Nice touch with the KC light covers, Paul and the entire Cox family. I’m sure your dad is living every minute of this and smiling down on you all.

[@brianhowe2078]

This wrecker is soooo cool. You should fit drink holders into the flat spot on the half doors

[@e.c.8668]

Gotta fit the big foam cups for the Mtn Dew.

[@snowmankace7769]

Seeing the GPA SHERM light covers makes this whole build worth it

[@DrRob-rt2lf]

I’m glad you guys are finally gaining subs felt like the 300k mark just took forever to go up! But you’ve got a super wholesome channel with adult humor mixed in and still G rated some how love it! Thank you Paul for essentially being The best Dad,Brother,Son,Husband on KZbin! Good bunch ya got there Even your brother haha but we all know he’s got a heart the size of Montana

[@UtahWaterLog]

These guys are amazing. I love this channel.

[@williamueli3001]

Hats off for the Fab Rats team💯RESPECT

[@Patrick.Weightman]

Those half doors look awesome!!

[@NoahFroio]

Love the Grandpa Sherm touch for the light bar, your Dad is looking down and smiling seeing what you done to his truck, Paul and Ben. Great build, can't wait to see the wrecker games footage.

[@Sickofitall-76]

You gotta love a man, Papa Dar, that comes to the quiet seclusion of a fabrication garage for a nap! You outta get the man a proper BarcaLounger so he can nap in comfort!

[@davehollingsworth3007]

For a first time out, Your truck did very good at the Olympics! This was a tribute to your design, and you and Ben's determination to "Get R Done"! You in the driver's seat, Ben in the towed vehicle and Grandpa Sherm beside you as your co-pilot, it was an outstanding run! Congratulations for your family!

[@owaindavies1390]

Just watched videos of the games , had a good laugh when I watched ya give blue steel some upgrading lol, love the channel!

[@davehollingsworth3007]

Ben is forever the optomist! Every brother needs a Brother like Ben! You 2 brothers work together like a well oiled machine! Keep up the good work and Thanks for the Video!

[@sammytucker316]

Wish we could have met you at the Wrecker Games but getting around in a wheelchair really limited where I could go. It was a blast meeting those we could reach. Thanks for the opportunity to get out and explore the State of Utah.🙂

[@richardjensen2769]

Have you seen the 'Terrible Training Cart,' that Paul welded up for Saylor Sorenson? (She's probably Outgrown it, by this time. I hesitate to Guess what Paul could not do; if he was offered enough Mountain Dew. {And enough Security could be Hired, to keep that Lightfingered MORR 'philanthropist' Away from Paul's refrigerator.} )

[@rickdavidson3534]

Sammy, Check out The Rig from Jerry rig everything, go to his You Tube channel. Hope this can help..

[@spaight711]

Love the doors! They’re downright elegant. You may want to throw a little matte black from a rattle can on the tops of them to stop the sun from reflecting right into your eyes.

[@edwinschlee8374]

The brake problem didn't slow you down on getting everything else ready to go! Good job Paul and Ben!

[@susansmith-franks684]

Absolutely LOVE dedication to Grandpa Sherm. So perfect! ❤️

[@MrChrissnowden]

Can not wait to hear the story of Paul bully-ing his older brother by rolling him over!!! Love the content and especially the editing 😉

[@kenuber4014]

Those light covers are a great tribute to your dad Paul!! Hope you have a great time at the Wrecker Games. Qw all will be pulling for you guys as always.

[@reddog543211]

Amazing build you guys....Gpa Sherm is grinnin ear to ear !!.... I can't believe I caught a breef glimpse of the "ghost editor "....lookin good.....thanks for sharing this with us !!

[@saintracheljarodm.holy-kay2560]

That half door went on like you knew what your doing. And sometimes it is those little parts that create the biggest headaches. Have a good week and God bless amen. Ps Happy St Patrick's day 🍀🍀🍀

[@annagarner1280]

Love your tribute to your dad...awesome, I m sure he 's extremely Proud of both you and Ben ....Have a great time at the W.G's

[@MissionRestomod]

I love the light covers! Glad it came together. You all put in so much work on the rat rod wrecker!

[@rondolly01]

Paul and Ben you all are great at making things work from one vehicle to another. Love watching your videos .

[@jamesbigham9036]

Paul I am looking forward to seeing the videos from the wrecker games to see how things go. I know having everyone together is going to be a lot of fun no matter what.

[@harrytaylor6854]

That's a heck of a tow truck you guy's built looks great sounds amazing. Good luck and all the best rooting for you guy's well done thank you for the video

[@cdanielh128]

You all have been working hard and deserve credit for a job very well done. Anyone would be proud to have that fine piece of machinery in their shop. Keep up the great work!

[@mikekraan823]

GPASHERM would be very proud of you Paul. That was a classy touch to an awesome build!

[@rarelyright]

It must feel really good to drive that thing after all the hard work. Looking forward to seeing it on a real rescue.

[@marshahelms3426]

This weight is closer to what I originally said it was back when you did the first weigh in . That wrecker is awesome. And by the way we need to see more of your wife , her laugh is the best and it sounds like someone that is happy and full of life

[@bradc2662]

That's honestly emotional at the end for me. He's proud of you Paul.

[@garycoppard3596]

Months of hard work and planning coming together. Congratulations gents. I have enjoyed watching the progress.

[@Jaffman13]

Hey guys!! Great jpob!! Ben, if you want quick pins ideas for squarebody doors, Offroad design has them!! Has made my life super quick and easy with swaping my tube doors for my full doors. Replaces faxtory door pins.

[@johntirado6479]

Just an amazing build by the Fab Rats Team. An incredible journey from thought to finished wrecker. So much talent and knowledge. Thanks for the good times.

[@markwilson9760]

Glad you made it to the games. Looking for the videos

[@mikemathis3936]

Spoiler alert. Ben turned out to be the best driver of the event. He drove over half the obstacles on the trail backwards

[@Lexidezi225]

Paul’s got the coolest wrecker. I know Matt’s got the big tires and Rory got a dually but Paul’s is all around better he can wheel it on any trail by itself and he can tow. And it just looks the most badass. Good work Paul and Ben!!

[@AndrewJStrang]

As a big fan of old Chevy trucks, I absolutely love what you guys have done with your wrecker! It looks so f-ing good, and I’ve already seen a bunch of videos of it at the wrecker games, and it performed incredibly. My hats off to you guys!

[@kathysantos2594]

Paul & Ben are so talented and creative. Paul is so calm with anything he encounters. Michelle, always beautiful and genuine. Your shop would be my husbands dream shop! Keep it up!!!

[@ohiomoto]

GPASHERM!! And those mirrors are sweet! I like how Chad left the seams exposed on the fenders. The doors and the fender trim you added pulls it all together. Way cool!

[@donlarsen9807]

A nother great video from the Cox family known as The Fab Rats! Nice tribute to the origin of the Rat Rod wrecker! Grandpa Sherm must be smiling down and happy with the transformation his son's have done. Everyone involved should be very proud.

[@scrappy7571]

Absolutely love how the wrecker came out!! You guys did a great job, even down to the last minute. By the way, you get FIRST PLACE for the best sounding rig there, Merlin is a close second.

[@danmcburney3247]

The front end looks better now than it did stock... Great build, video's and team !!!! It's weird still watching build video's after watching all the other video's of the game's and knowing they're over 😀

[@wilverrivera1426]

Sweet!!! It came out nice.. been watching from the beginning and I love it.. the last touches with lights and logos.❤🙏🏻🍻

[@stephena2390]

GPASHERM was the perfect touch on the truck. Your dad would be proud Paul!❤

[@norcoredneck]

Papa Z looking like he’s recovering well. Enjoyed seeing FabRats crew at the Wrecker Games.

[@one4chuckantel]

I've always been a Ford Truck guy, but I absolutely LOVE the RatRod TowTruck. The nose looks PHAT and the truck is the total package. Outstanding Job to Ben and Paul! Thanks for the wholesome videos.

[@hoop7986]

Sheeeeeshhhh. Need some warnings on this video. The light bar covers broke me 😢. Class act.

[@rickdavidson3534]

Another great video. I think the doors offer nice storage opportunities, pockets for gloves, drink holders, lots of possibilties. No one builds like Paul and Ben.

[@sparker2289]

I absolutely love this channel. I look forward to every video. Keep up the great work fellas.

[@detroitdiy]

Awsome guy's, I cant wait for some wrecker games footage. I watched a little on other channels but want to see the point of view you guys bring.

[@JabinMunger]

You guys Rock, The truck did great in my veiw @ the ORWG. Thanks for standing the Rodeo on end, that was cool to watch for what was otherwise a tad too easy of an "obstacle stage" You & Rory made a fun show of that stage. And hats off to how well the RRW handled the dead pull! Super limited views being @ the top for the tripple 7's, & then Merlin cheats on the outside, despite that you made it up the hard line. Was an amazing experiance, wish I could have shook yall's hands in congradulations, and respect of all y'all do.

[@davesayers5809]

The Wrecker turned out Outstanding AF Fabrats!! 🇺🇲💪💪🇺🇲 God Bless America 🇺🇲 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤️

[@donerightfence6484]

I guessed final weight of 8424 in the first weigh in video. I was close! Paul your dad would be and is extremely proud of you! Hope to meet you one day! Keep up the great work the whole fab rat family!

[@prsnroftime]

The GPASHERM caps for the KC lights messed with my allergies! Was not expecting that! Awesome tribute Fab Rats!!

[@chrispclimbs]

Custom deluxe! Love it. Had an 84 all thru high school. But lowered on 15” rims with a sick dual exhaust. We don’t have rocks to crawl in El Paso tx so it was just fine haha

[@chubbrock659]

Just hop over to Juarez 😂

[@kerryhickman2235]

I love the truck! It turned out really awesome! I especially love the half-doors!! Amazing job!! You should be very proud of what y'all built!! The light covers look perfect!!

[@tjtobin86]

You guys take everything in stride thats for sure. Glad to see its working and towing.

[@ToddDunning]

Love the soft piano music while Dar is sleeping. Michelle puts in so many little detail touches and extra effort.

[@markcaldwell1245]

I like the new editing with the side by side and time lapse, great job.

[@1950harleycharley]

All of these Utah guys are an inspiration! They set good examples …treat each other with respect even tho there is a bit of bantering in good fun at times!Love ALL the channels!

[@jorgecampos6289]

I know your dad will be proud of what you’ve built and the time that you have put into this truck❤😊

[@EasternSunset007]

I actually LOVE the way y’all did the front end! Very cool and unique! I dig it!😎

[@mh7743]

Best fabrication and repair channel on all of KZbin! I So Enjoy watching ..thanks!

[@GICK117]

You young fellers built my favorite truck for sure. I love your thought process. "If at first", and all that. Follow through is everything. And brothers that can work together like you guys is nice to see.

[@dreamlinerkoa6438]

The tribute to GrampSherm is perfect,,, 10 of 10 🎉

[@Bwilde4]

You guys built the best looking truck! And your gonna win the wrecker games!

[@dgberry01]

You need some hard shackles and protectors for the soft shackles. Make some cross straps to control vehicle swing. Rory the enemy uses that method.

[@jonathanz4987]

I love the Granpa Sherm homage. Nice touch Paul and Ben. No question, your Daddy is proud of you!! Brought a tear to my eye!

[@maxironpaw]

The new gray 'Team Fab Rats' t-shirts are great! Perfect fit, good material, and extra long, which is appreciated by us taller folk.

[@wesgraham9588]

Looking Good, hope you guys have a video of the Wrecker Games that’s better than the One’s I seen !

[@ScottsGEN-XAdventures]

Love the Rat Rod Wrecker!! Ben and Paul are awesome. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@shaunmaloney3491]

Love the light covers ❤️🙏🏻 perfect finishing touch…not that any project is ever truly finished lol love the build, your visions and talents are top notch! Love all aspects of your channel, from the builds to the family aspect, picking on Hunter, gramma Lolly, your channel is my favourite

[@CarswithNash]

Turned out really nice, I like the light covers, that’s a nice touch.

Grampa Sherm on the light covers was a really nice touch. Well done!

[@Fatlip412]

Truly a sweet lookin functional build. The paint/raw, narrowed front, chopped doors,custom bed and then the hydraulic boom u have is so nice.

[@thelonewrangler1008]

I noticed some cameras on the truck and assume that was the secret weapon Chad was wiring up for you but I also noticed the screen isn't installed. I've been wanting to rig up some cameras on my old jeep so hopefully we get a demonstration of those once you get the kinks worked out.🇺🇸

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

You do get a dollar every time you lift it cause we are all sitting on the couch watching you on the wide screen love the truck.

[@SchysCraftCo.]

It's coming along nicely guys. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab on. Weld on. Keep making. God bless.

[@aarongraff9801]

Awesome video as always. We were right there beside you almost the entire wrecker game and I didn’t notice the kc light covers till now. We were just excited to be there. And meet you all in person. Much love to you grandpa sherm.

[@shanegarrison2214]

Grand pa sherm would be proud of the rat rod wrecker. Especially from what it was to what you have turned it into. Great job Paul and the crew.

[@michellescott619]

I choked up when I saw the dedication to Grandpa Sherm. So cool!

Paul, you and Ben built one heck of a wrecker. I especially like the extra graphics GPASHERM. He certainly is proud of you both.😎

[@SwedishCook1]

If it weren’t for bad luck we’d have no luck at all or we do it twice cause we do it right! Good video!

[@UtahGambler]

So exciting... I Love The Grampa Sherm covers... What a Awesome tow Truck... Grandpa Sherm has gotta be proud of his boy's.... Modifying his tow truck...

[@scottsherman8356]

Crunch time! Lol. I'm there with my build and EJS. Buddy and I JUST finished my crawler box transfer case last night. Still need to weld up hangers and install freshly disk brake converted rear end. Install Frankensteined front disk brake upgrade conversion. Drop old transfer case and install new, including cutting out tunnel and building crossmember brackets. Shorten and lengthen drivelines. Design and fabricate winch bumper. Install said winch. And a dozen other little things... and mmt buddy and I have day jobs. 😬 Nice work guys! I'm diggin' the half doors. Can't wait for the OFFICIAL wrecker games videos from everyone. Been staying away from bootleg vids. AND IT'S KILLING ME!!!🤣😂

[@EvrttGrn]

LOVE the Grandpa Sherm light covers.
