Full Custom Ian Roussel Is Closing The Desert Ranch Shop 🌵😢

[@fullcustomIan]

We are SAD! We had to move and while we aren't making the reason public, just know that it was a decision that did not come lightly. Please share in saying goodbye to Ian's old shop and support us in the new shop. We have some really fun ideas for builds in the new shop that will be "outta this world!" Please leave us a comment of some of your favorite memories of the shop. We want to hear them all! Have a wonderful weekend and we will see you again next week! ~. The Roussel's and HIT THAT "LIKE" BUTTON COMMENT and SHARE

[@TheREALOC1972]

Your first new build in the new shop should be an off the wall mid-late 1970's car build, just to be different.

Had to jump in on your pinned comment. Just have to say your editing is fantastic and the ending collage brought tears to my eyes. Hit the heart👍

Greetings from South Carolina... well guys it doesn't matter where you are! It's more like...WHO YOU ARE!👍 So if your next shop is in a cave on Pluto... As long as you 2 are happy...I'm in! 💯👍✌️

[@danielaguero3766]

I met ian at one of the West Coast Kustom shows in Santa Maria he was kind enough to sign an autograph for me . He spoke to me like he had known me for years , i have enjoyed watchinghim over the years come up with his creations and can say the man has talent that is out of this world . Ian what ever the reason for your move wishing both you and Jaime the best hope you accomplish what ever you dream up next . Daniel A.

[@shaneb4923]

Thank You Ian For All The Great Memories!! Been Watching From The Start. Hope To See You Soon Good Sir!🇺🇸

[@mattsweetland9579]

To me, Ian is the Bob Ross of the Kustom car world. There are no mistakes in his builds, just visionary opportunities, it was great to see the work come to fruition in the desert, and I’m sure there are more vision quests to come.

The photos of the inspectors brought tears to the eyes of this 57 yr old man , great vid Jamie x

[@JAF-pd9mw]

I know, right? It was clear the whole move was sad and very nostalgic for the Roussell's. The cowbell also brought a tear and a smile.

[@kimmunson7050]

Of all the car fab shows on TV, Ian is the real deal. Enjoyed watching you work and all of the creations. Happy trails to you and Jamie! Pick ya up on You Tube!🤙🔧

Ian you will work your magic wherever you are ! Keep it up and God Bless!

[@dalesmith112]

Once upon a time, deep in the Mojave desert, there lived an amazing metal artist named Ian Roussell...his artistic palate has always been a bit askew from the norm, this... among many of his other eccentricities are what makes him such a blessing to the custom car community. Good luck in your new digs Mr. Ian... I know that you amd Miss Jamie will flourish there. Greater times and new memories wait to be made.

[@normanroberts6680]

Ian & Jamie, it's you who makes the memories and the show. The location is just a sidestep, make the new place shine with it's own personality. 😊

[@abcullens2328]

Happy and sad at the same time. Happy motoring at your new location. Ian and Jamie you're a great pair. 👍😎

[@tedjastrombjr.5187]

have watched you build some amazing rides, gonna miss ya walking around the ranch, keep Customizing for sure !!!!!

[@TimothyKepner]

Seeing the Shop Supervisors again has brought a tear to my eyes again as they were such a great part of your builds. I know you will see them again at the Rainbow Bridge. May God Bless them and the two of you as well. Good Luck in the new shop

[@donaldcochrane3283]

Irember seeing them. Cool dogs

[@stephencook7720]

It's what you brought into the shop that made the shop special. Appreciating its quirks you inherited, the accomplshments now turned to memories, and how the desert shaped and changed you as you shaped and changed all what was brought into the shop. You are taking with you what made it special. It can be left with satisfaction, having served its purpose, and is a memorable leverage for wherever you go. It is well, now that it is done, that it was well done. Hold whatever you have lightly, whoever you have closely, and appreciate the moment, for time waits for nobody.

[@fullcustomIan]

Best summary ever. Thank you 🙏

[@bellytripper-nh8ox]

​@@fullcustomIan was your lease up?

[@johncantu6316]

Life happens. I miss the shop inspector - RIP ... Life needs change for renewal and rejuvenation - like the old vehicles and various 'finds' turned into rolling art. Ian IS the constant and has remained real, the dogs his right hand, various partners/clients/visitors/apprentices/masters - friends all - have been quality quirky people, and of course Jaimie arrived, complimenting Ian just about as perfect as possible with her mad skills and leveling up the soundtrack. Keep on keeping on - I've been here from 'Back from the Dead' and hope to keep up with y'all into the future!

[@hookdog8640]

The best to you and your wife Ian. P.s the shop inspectors. Much love.

[@annrhoads6808]

Please Ian & Jamie Keep making the U Tube Show ✌️✌️ Just wouldn't be the same without you both 🚗 .....

[@TeriMahl]

This made me so sad! It felt like a death somehow. I understand that “bittersweet” comment so well. The older I get the more these memories touch my heart. My husband and I watch your show together every time and I get mad at him if he watches without me. Love you two! Hope the new shop has some of the magic that the old shop did.

[@rickarra1833]

So weird, it feels the same way to me

[@52JMD]

Wow! I never thought that I would get all misty eyed over and episode of Full Custom Ian, but then that's just how special you two have become. Thank you for all of the great memories in the old shop, and we're looking forward to getting to know the new one with you. Peace and Love.

Watching this reminds me of how long I have been following Ian and what a crazy,wild,awesome adventure! I hope to meet you both in person some day! Thank you for what you do and I wish you all the best on your next adventure!❤

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you!!! We pop up from time to time so if we do please say hello!

[@keithfilkins2043]

@fullcustomIan I certainly will,but being on the east coast...but the west coast is on the bucket list!

[@boydgrandy5769]

I completely understand why you are in love with the location you are sadly leaving. Absolutely incredibly beautiful country outside your door. You have memories, as I have, of the place you loved the most and they never fade. Best of luck to you in your new home, Ian.

[@BradRice-w8c]

If anyone knows how to successfully pivot, it’ll be Ian. I recently watched the whole series for the first time, and Ian is absolutely unique in his approach to building. I love his usage of what’s around, it’s so relatable and real. My favorite part about the desert shop (and really the whole show) is the love for Dude. We had to put a 14 y.o. Dobie down yesterday, and I just happened to watch the show at the same time she was living out her last days. I can’t tell you how moved I was when Ian used Dude’s bed to upholster the seat of the desert hot rod. Truly an amazing tribute to the best shop inspector there ever was. Good luck to y’all, I’m sure Ian will thrive in the new shop.

Just thankful you are continuing creating those wonderful works of art. You are the best and I'm looking forward to many more builds. Thank you for sharing your talent.

I think the most choked up I got was that your last memories of your pups were here. I know that is what will make my move away from my current house is my pup I lost here. I wish you the best in your next location ian. I love your vids

[@popeyebob9007]

Just watching this I can see the emotional connection to the place. These special places are more than just a place of business they are a home as well. It is never easy giving up what has become a part of yourself. However, I am a big believer in the saying " When one door closes another opens " and I feel there will be gigger and better things ahead. I do wish you all the best in the new shop and look forward to some more amazing projects.

[@keithpercell3335]

First of all Jaimie Great Job Editing this, it takes a lot of talent & time ! Best part were the photos of memories. Ian you are a lucky man to have such a smart woman. And she looks cute in those spandex shorts. Wish you guys health and happiness !!!

[@chrisredfield4017]

Ian is amazing. His vision and creation reminds me of when I was a kid in the golden age of wild customs, innovative design that always got attention. Yeah, maybe not so practical but that's not the reason we build our cars and hot rods. I always loved the episodes with Sir Gene Winfield. Ran into a few times at swap meets just like your average Joe looking for auto treasure. It's so great that Ian totally continues from Gene's generation of cool.

[@edwardfabela2200]

Parting is such sweet sorrow... Onward Ian and Jamie, onward. Wishing you all the best.

[@1nJimid8tor]

Oh Man that was a big tug on the Heartstrings with all the photos and memories of the Shop Inspectors there approving the builds or just hanging out and Ian interacting with them.

Im incredibly sad that you're moving, I never missed a full custom garage and was so excited for you when you moved out to the desert. I love all the episodes from there but the one where you made the car/camper for storage by your pool really stands out for me. You are incredibly talented Ian

[@johnamorim6080]

Staying true to ourselves is a valuable way of living and I think that's why we both love Ian videos above all other KZbin channels, it's because he refuses to sell himself short for some green paper money, Ian and Jamie are two people that really should be the idols of what the youth should be looking up to other than God, in my opinion 🇺🇲💯❤️🙏
