The Rat Rod Wrecker Is Two Steps Closer To Being Finished!

Its not what you do, its the people that makes this channel special! Hunter is a perfect fit with this group!

18:58..St. George Temple? My wife and I were married in 2001 in the Atlanta Temple. You guys are one of my favorite channels. Thx for the entertainment.

[@MarkJacksonGaming]

-- Little side note. Did a simple smart alt/smart isolator system on the wife's vehicle the other day. Nothing fit right. I'm coming up with a plan when my 5 year old daughter shrugs and says, "We'll just have to Fab Rats it". Could have tied my grin behind my head. "Yeah," I said, "I know how to do that."

When Dolly Parton was asked about her shoe size, she said "Well, I wear a six, but a seven feels so good that I wear an eight!". The wrecker was planned for 37's, but 38's looked so good that you put 40's on it!

What a great wedding pic. What a great couple....then and now. It's getting harder to remember what it was like when we were only married 20 years. 😂😂

Oh wow boy is this Rat rod tow truck coming together! Each time Paul and Ben get their hands on it it gets closer to being ready to give Chad's Fabs a call to do the wiring. So nice seeing the ladies in the shop keeping everyone straight! Lando even made an appearance and Gracie. Love this channel and the videos keep up the good work.

Just wanted to say Ben has been such a great addition to the channel. Makes me wish I had a brother growing up. Can't wait to see this thing burnout. It's been awesome following along.

Thank you so much for signing the frisbee stickers and the lighted keychain. Big tall Tim one of the safety guys at 24 hours of lemons, is my best friend. And he was there helping out and talk to you. It took me this long to thank you because I couldn’t figure out how to comment. My wife and I have been subscribers for a while. Never thought my wife would like anything to do with cars or off-road. Since then we bought her a new bronco sport and have fallen in love with your channel and your family. Such nice people. Thanks again keep up the great contact.

Hat's off to Matt, I would have never found you guys had it not been for the golden nugget. In just a few short months you have become one of only a few channels I truly enjoy watching. Keep up the good work. When is the FJ going to get some paint? Is Robby Layton going to be involved in that? I remember Paul telling Randall not to worry about the dings and dents because Robby can fix that.

[@funtyes1970]

Paul and Ben together are the do all team. I enjoy watching them so much because of the lack of drama, and the high quality of the work. I know I would fit right in with these two guys even though they build rock crawlers, and I built and drag raced cars and motorcycles most of my life.

"How much air ya got in it? I got a good chunk." That reminds me of coworker was putting air in the bicycle tires on a Rubbermaid cart, and then took it into the plant at work. I was working on a different job nearby that day, and within a few minutes time, there were two explosions. I went over to see what happened. Both tires blew out. Later on in the day, I asked the employee (I'm a team leader) what happened. He said he filled the tires until they got firm. I then proceeded to show him the pressure gauge sitting in the holder on the side of the air compressor. I asked him if he's ever used one before, which he said he did. I then told him that any time he wanted to fill tires until they were firm, to do so on the forklift or the scissors lift. They have solid airless tires.😁
