Can The Corvair Handle Moab's Easter Jeep Safari?

[@Scotty2001]

MATT’s little dance after the hot tub obstacle, made the whole video worth it.

[@jimcollins8097]

Matt : "I don't think i want to do this" Rudy: "oh, we're doing it"

[@CodyJohnstonbaugh]

The "oh were doing it" cracked me up. Every dad needs that kind of support before making a risky move like that 😂

The only thing I can think of that makes the Corvair better than it performed is the fact you built that with your Son. Outstanding!!

Man if people knew what an accomplishment it is to do a build and have almost no issues on its first major outing. That's absolutely incredible!

[@firstnamelastnameisallowed7943]

I was thinking the same thing! Usually there is always a little grimllen hiding waiting for the worst possible moment to show it's ugly little face!! They probably had a few bolts that needed to be tightened up, but that is just maintenance and doesn't count in my book LoL

[@MaryB-ps8lg]

[@TheOReport1994]

@k henne Electrical issues are the worst in my book!

[@MrGaryGG48]

@k henne Maybe the best part is that there's VERY little original beyond the Corvair body. What a spectacular debut for a project like this!

[@zacharylankford7248]

As I watched this I couldn’t help but think of all the people that just got out flexed by a corviar wagon

[@TrevorDennis100]

Would they call that suspension articulation? Whatever they call it, it was epic. Incredible angles and in opposite directions sometimes, and keeping the tires in contact with the ground so all four wheels are pushing you forward. I think Matt mentioned that a lower crawl speed gear would have been good, but if that's all he could think of with a just completed major project, then that is a spectacular success in my book.

[@calebm.5698]

@@TrevorDennis100 it’s usually called flex as a casual term, but suspension articulation would be technically correct.

[@matthoye4974]

@@TrevorDennis100 I believe Rudy did a good bit of the fabrication so that’s a testament to his skills for sure!

I gotta give props to your camera crew. Your channel is fun to watch because y'all seem like good people and do some cool stuff. But having great documentation is what really brings it home. Your attitudes/personalities make the content super down to earth and relatable, while the videography and editing make it flow like high end production. Good work to the folks behind the scenes! Thanks for keeping our attention focused. Hard to stop binging on these videos.

[@bleepinjeep]

Great job guys, for a fresh build that Corvair did amazing and drove over ever obstacle without a fuss! And you never even had to make a call 📞😃!

[@ameyers67]

That's a sweet new winch line Matt. Great idea!

[@Bleepincolt]

What a great time, we are so stoked that you all brought the Corvair out to play with us in Moab!

[@Stratos53100]

I would say Excellent overall, for a 1st major test run, Minus an exhaust pipe which can be shortened a few inches on each side, The gearing worked out great, while it may not be perfect or low enough etc, didnt fuss ( as you said ) too much at all... Might be 1 of the very few Car based Custom builds that have ever gone through so smoothly, Im sure It's going to turn a lot of heads on the trail's etc.

[@charleswidmore5458]

I was pleasantly surprised to see you and your crew with MORR at MOAB! The winch line is very nice. Figured you were gonna just kinda settle down and take it easy after saving Tennessee from the Super Volcano and the Nazees, so it's good your still wheeling.

[@willx27]

Lost my dad a few years ago. It brings me so much joy to see Matt and Rudy and the rest of the group having such a great time together.

[@keepercity]

man, I've been hooked on this channel for the last few weeks and I love everybody on it. They have such great chemistry together and they do such awesome work with pulling people out of sticky situations and their fab skills are on point too. The best part is that they are all so modest about everything and seem so chill. Usually when you catch a channel about anything off road or shop related stuff it's all in your face, loud music, we're the baddest, OC choppers type horseshit. These guys are just fun and relaxing to watch as they do their thing. Cheers to Matt and his squad, yall seem like good people!

[@FernandoGomez-nt2po]

Matt, your pride is warranted, you and your team built an exceptional machine. More than that, you have raised a good son “Rudy”. Both of you are the best of friends, and you just don’t see that very often. Congratulations on your build.

[@levikelley1842]

Dude you went through the hot tub with out the least bit spinning!!!! That's a huge achievement

[@burningbarnavit]

Two things: • This video series inspired me to nut-up & just start fabricating. Nobody can tell you "what will work" but you. Your rig runs smooth as silk and looks badass! • Matt, were you more proud of the rig itself, or the fact that your Boy is a wicked fabricator and damn good driver? Totally looked like you were having a "Proud Papa" moment lol. I love that feeling!

[@ROgletree]

You built an extremely capable vehicle. That departure angle is crazy.

[@Mary-fq6sm]

The mutual respect between Matt & Rudy is such a beautiful thing. Y’all make me proud to be an American❤

I think Rudy's fab work on the corvair impressed me most. Glad to see him get an ataboy for the effort.

[@lylehuber1466]

Mega-nana did awesome. Major kudos to Matt, his family, and his work team for their countless hours. This video is proof that their efforts are paying off...in spades. The clearance that you have, on something with that long of a wheelbase, is actually impressive. Pushing the tires towards the corners really pays off when off-road.

[@MrGaryGG48]

I was just thinking how those approach & departure angles couldn't get much better unless Matt found a way to hang the axles all the way out under the bumpers! The proportions on that Corvair are just perfect. It might even better with windows! I know... all in due time. ;^)

The Corvair has turned out to be an incredibly capable rig! It's wonderful to see Matt do a little dance of celebration . When the capabilities of your vehicle are stronger than your nerves to tackle an obstacle, you know that you've done well with your build and you can always work harder on yourself to catch up with the abilities of your vehicle!

what i love about the morrvair, is no matter the obstacle, everyone else is spinning and bouncing etc, then the morrvair comes and just rolls up, doesnt really spin, bounce, anything. it just makes everything look effortless. its amazing to watch

Yep, Matt is as happy as an early morning crowing rooster in the middle of a hundred laying hens in the barnyard. When a corvair moves that gracefully over hill and dale, it becomes referred to as a "SHE". So guess the future name might be a female name. Its wonderful to see all the hard work end up so successfully. Matt and Da Crew? Totally awesome!

I found MORR about six months ago and have been playing catch up ever since. Watched until I was caught up with, then, all the new stuff. Have gone back to start from the beginning. Very interesting to watch the channel progress and the MorrVair come to life. I'm looking forward to the creation of the tow truck now. You guys have great content! We often babysit our, almost 2 Y/O, grandson on Tuesdays. He has loves to sit on Poppas lap and watch the big yellow truck get trucks unstuck. Has his own yellow truck and loves playing with his trucks. He and his dad have started watching MORR when it's time for a little quiet/settle down time. The boy can't get enough!

Man, my stomach was in knots before the 20 minute mark. I can't imagine what it would be like riding. I'm very happy watching it from the comfort of my chair. Rudy and his Corvair made it look real easy. Matt, I'm sure you taught him everything he knows.

I am a Land Cruiser fan and have had a 60 series Land Cruiser as a daily driver since 1984. I always felt that it was a perfectly proportioned vehicle.

@@brenthunsaker9042 My brother and I wanted to build a hotel there in the 80's before Moab started getting popular. The banks turned us down for a loan saying Moab was a dying town. There were only 3 or 4 hotels there at the time with a motel or two shut down for lack of business. We could see the change coming. A couple years later the hotels started popping up.
