Model A Road Trip Broke Down Within 25 Miles OIL LEAK FROM HELL! Will We Even Make It?

[@NorrisAnderson-hn4xn]

Merlin, you are one of the few people left in the world who would know what some of the machines are and can do in that amazing Cloud museum.

[@Dave-hf1th]

Actually there are quite a few of us still alive

[@bobstratton6362]

I am going to go check that out! Haven’t been to Yuma since I was a kid 55 years ago. My grandfather work on the dam system in the 60’s working on heavy equipment.

[@darlene4232]

Thanks for taking us along ❤

[@rshutterbug47]

Thank GOD For Mr Cloud & People Like Him & You & People Like You That Show Us All That Awesome Stuff

[@matthewgreen1312]

Thank you Merlin and Mackay for letting us in KZbin Land, live vicariously! The Cloud Museum and the trip in the Rat Rod were AWESOME! So much fun! ROFL about the "What Kind of Horse Manudo is This??"...I agree.

[@sodrodder]

Great to see 2 gearheads having a fun trip. I'm 73 years old and have been a mechanic all my life. Raced on the dragstrip, also on dirt track IMCA modified, and flat track motorcycle on dirt. Been on many road trips that went just like Merlins trip. Lost most of my old car guys that I ran with. Now just remembering the great times I had! Getting too old and busted up to wrench on anything now days. Thank you Merlin for all your videos. Everyone of your videos bring back lots of memories. Thank you so much from one gearhead to another.

[@michaellauer3397]

Am a few years younger, but right there with you brother. I still think we had the best cars, best motorcycles, best music, and by golly the best women. And thank God for the greatest generation, the best raising…

[@VicSwanby]

That was really cool seeing the cloud museum. So many antique items all knowledge that has been lost to time. We sure have gone a different direction in this country away from the industrial area and entered into the throwaway everything and save nothing generation. Im glad to see someone took the time to collect so much of the history of the early eras of the automobile. Neet to explore with you guys thanks for the video and I hope you can find and fix your oil leak issues before the next road trip. Keep up your adventures and continue to bring your audience to these roadside attractions capturing these places before they all go into extinction. Much respect for these people keeping places like that alive and allowing the public to experience the wonders of the past and saving our historical past for future generations to enjoy.

[@GorillaCookies]

There's got to be several million dollars parked in that museum. Absolutely Fantastic Collection

[@mudrunner66]

On Vice Grip Garage Derek said those LT distributers don't have alignment pins. You need to loosely assemble everything including the damper, then tighten everything up.

[@rhondasweeney7271]

What a walk around! Mr. Cloud was an amazing man.I absolutely loved the old machines. We need to hold on to the past. Thanks for sharing 👏 👍 😊

[@taurota1554]

What a magnificent collection

[@Terry-lu2dr]

The museum brought back so many memories. New tales of our life can not compare.

[@Dan_BamSR]

That Cloud Museum was amazing! I’m gonna have to see that. Thank you boys for the tour.

[@krazedkamper]

Your video was timely. I'm headed to Yuma for a long stay. Now I'm all excited to visit this museum! I love these gems, and that place is incredible! Thanks for sharing.😊

[@garymcmullin2292]

You and Makay made a great video. I lived in Yuma for a year back in 1973, I remember the Bard area, got acquainted with a Jake and Mike Colvin that farmed there. Your weather down that way is priceless, this is the GOOD times in the southwest, your area of the country really appeals to me, the old desert is a gem. That Cloud fella has been busy, my thoughts run to kind of sorrow, what an impressive collection but he will eventually give it all up just like we all do. Once I saw the border collie I knew what you meant about the dog comment early in the video, those dogs cannot be duped, they are fast and energetic and won't back away from their task, I love that breed of dog.

[@Telephony954]

Quite the show, this time. At least you guys did your part to add to the paving project by keepin the oil fresh. Be well. kool visit. Thanks for sharing.

[@JonsMG]

That's pretty brave parking the A right next to the other items at the Cloud Museum. They might confuse it as their own and keep it!

[@mnbsay9548]

Imagine that…A Sacramento Bee from 1963 out in the middle of the desert. When I was a kid in the seventies I delivered the Bee, on my bike no less. Anyone remember that, the neighborhood paper boy on a bike making home deliveries. You’re so right Merlin…we have gotten stupider.

[@steven.h0629]

All my brothers had 'paper routes' around the neighborhood. We also had 'collection days' where we went around knocking on customers doors collecting their paper dues, and hopefully Tips for good service.

[@ThomasSmith-hh8fp]

I delivered in Orangevale, when I was a kid. LOL !! I completely forgot about that!.. Great old days.Im 61, and back in my hometown..

[@mnbsay9548]

@@ThomasSmith-hh8fp I delivered in Carmichael. On Sundays mornings I along with some of the other paperboys would meet up at the local donut shop and sell our extra papers for Sunday treats and share the local gossip. I miss those times.

[@Thecherokee4x4]

Mr Cloud has a great collection of time past... nice guy and a great museum. Thanks Merlin and Mickay. Always loved your videos Merlin.

[@jeffclark2725]

Always something unexpected unique happens here,makes Sunday mornings great to see what happens

[@axemanfishing2703]

WOW, Mr Cloud has one HELL of a collection. A must see NO doubt if you are in the area on vacation.

[@DennisVerrelli]

Duuuuuude, that was the BEST VIDEO I've seen in a long time. If you can't enjoy that. You don't have a pulse. Great video. I'll be watching it over and over. I don't think I've ever hit the rewind button as much as I did in that video. Kick ass.👍

[@davidhorting1613]

Definitely a must-see location. Need several days to take that all in. Reminds me so much of Grandpa’s old farm! Lots of one-off items I’m sure. Thanks for taking us along

[@truenaturestormers2525]

That place and all the stuff, cars, I tell ya what, just AMAZING, thanks Merlin, you are the best.

[@jeromestrong5614]

Thanks for the ride along Merlin. Totally awesome video.

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Wow. From you road oiler, to oiled roads, to vehicles that rode no roads. Awesome. I'll keep Mr. Cloud's Museum in my plans for travels. Thank you 2, and Mr.Cloud for the video.

[@tomcleghorn4005]

Well that adds another stop too the bucket list. Thank merlin

[@karlwagner6886]

Absolutely love it! Thanks to Mr. Cloud for the collection, I hope someone makes sure it's preserved for all to enjoy for many years!

[@melclark1066]

Awesome, Amazing, Astonishing, and a whole lot more! Thanks for showing us.🤓😎

[@goptools]

Hi Merlin. That Cloud Museum was an incredible place! It almost seems impossible for it to even exist. How on earth did he ever put together so many antique vehicles, parts and other miscellaneous old stuff? Probably not too many of his visitors show up in a Model A. The proving ground seemed pretty cool as well. Looked like a good time for you and McKay!

[@dougbourdo2589]

I will HAVE to visit the museum. My very first vehicle I got as a teen was a '29 Model A square cab pickup truck. It was far cooler than all of my school mates cars. It was always a ball to drive & goof off in. A few years later O bought a '29 AA Ford dually flat bed truck.

[@crazybobc1]

Wow, that was awesome! Mr. Cloud sure has the stuff. I could spend all day in there looking. Thanks for taking us along! I'm on the other side of the country so I'll probably never get to go there.

[@weatherincorporated6088]

That cloud museum is an automotive treasure trove! I sincerely hope he has his estate in order so that the collection can maintain beyond his care! Love the travel, such amazing stuff in the south west

[@davemc9150]

Great video! The museum is great! Thought one of the best things at the golf course was looking through the old golf carts as I have clearly been watch you to much.😁. Keep them coming..

[@cowpolk.]

Thank you Merlin, that was really nice 😊 🤠

[@bettystorey4037]

Very cool! Thanks for the tour. Always look forward to your Sunday posts.

[@1944chevytruck]

AWESOME SHOP!

[@edwinschlee8374]

All those old types of cars are some of the kinds my dad worked on. He was a mechanic in Detroit in the 20s. as you were going through some of those old houses and things I saw things that I knew about. Like the milk separator and the butter churns the meat grinders. I am 80 and live in La Junta Colorado a former farm kid!

[@docdruskithetexican8846]

Way cool Merlin! Much obliged. 👍🏼😉

[@retselyarrh3895]

I always enjoy your videos, but this one has to be one of the best!!!! I just hope he has a way to preserve these treasures!!!! Because none of us live forever!!!! And I would hate for some unknowing liquidator come here and scrap it all…😢😢

[@redwetjet67]

What a magnificent museum Mr Cloud has built! Thought you were going to do a " Make it Run" clip while you were there for a sec.😄 What a great road trip fairly close to your home! Place needed more exposure to the world.

Very nice video Merlin. Wonderful vehicles in the museum and so many other things about life in the old days. Teachers should go here with their pupils, it shows more than many school books put together. Greetings from Frankfurt, good luck, nice weather and stay healthy. Gerold

By far one of the best videos I’ve seen I love it. I’m gonna go out there and check that place out. Thank you.

Shoots 19.866 miles. Now that right there sure is a powerful pea shooter. Ol George built a SS 1.5" muzzle loading cannon when we were working on the Palo Verde project in the late 70s. Using 3/8" & 1/2" hole punch outs, on black powder it destroyed a solid core exterior door and the supporting pile of palets from about 30 yds.

[@kc6nfv746]

Thank you Merlin I love some of the old stuff

When you came across Kansas last year on your Model A adventure I wish you had came north to a little town in south central Nebraska called Minden and visited Pioneer Village. It was featured on American Pickers.

Wow I camp off Olgilby which is about 5 minutes away and never knew it existed. I will have to check it out. Thanks for the great adventure

[@jameslovitt994]

The lid off a sharpie marker, that's what I've used in a pinch for the water pump drive seal for an LT1 engine. oil filter adapter will leak like hell occasionally. Remote oil filter adapter gasket kit for a 4.3 v6 S10 fixed that.

[@arte9855]

Dang it, didn't know you were in my neighborhood. That tour is a must see if you are within 100 miles and have a number of hours to wander through.

[@johnhart125]

Love the Cloud museum, would love to go look, T buzz rig reminded me of one we had, similar but 4cyl willys power. Lot of stuff there I grew up using and repairing for others

[@bigjay6743]

I could walk around that museum for days. We lost so much of that old history here in Canada because it just rusted away with our climate.

[@Mercmad]

26:55 Street machine 1930 style .I'd love that,just to try and fire it and see how fast I could go ,accounting for the pucker factor.

Simply Seeing all those Model As made my knuckles sore!!!

[@Dave-hf1th]

Good memories Merlin, I made the same trip about four years ago.

[@georgeweisbrod1876]

Could you have a bent shaft from accident impact. If is , shaft would rotate in an orb rotation instead of straight true rotation. Back in '76 at the Chris craft dealership shop I worked at in Colorado, we had a long block delivered from factory (Chris used GM blocks and shafts). In shipping. The wooden crate was dropped hard enough to crack and break the two restraining planks. Long story short, crank end bent 3° with major oil leak. Just a suggestion. Another adventure in the desert. Thanks again gw

[@alkennedy1124]

Brad could be the transportation secretary so that we all get our model A ,,,that’s right, lol lettttts go thanks BigAl California

thanks Merlin i enjoyed this so much i love this content.

[@STEEL-IN-UT]

Dang Merlin, the tone in your voice when you seen/commented on that Model-T, i thought you were going to tell McKay "we need to start this up and take it for a drive'. ,,, WOW, that place is really cool (am i still allowed to say that?). ,,, love your vids ❤
