You don't need to explain your build bro, do what ever the hell ya want 🤙

[@stotty117]

He dose qhen the build drops his veiw count lol that's how he makes money hahaha Aussies don't like this shit lol this is a Florida mud truck it has the flex of a shopping cart at that hight it won't flex lol Aussies like practical 4wds and high hp Street cars not some redneck shit that you can't do shit with

[@francoiseverton2516]

Mate, I love this build as it brings out the inner child. Clearly they don't understand the mad max feature and that this is built for show and if they thought otherwise, then their heads are clearly full of rocks or empty. The best part is that most of the haters comments are laughable and that you laugh with them and still do your own thing. Great job and can't wait to see it spit flames.

[@Lsjeffery97]

100% smtg from a child's imagination. The best thing for kids at the shows

[@PatHamilton-sw3yo]

I would much rather see a build like this compared to “the ultimate touring 79” where there all the same

[@shanenorwell8580]

100%!!! I simply won’t click on a game changing garden shed build video regardless of who posts it…absolute overrated rubbish.

[@aspectscarpentry4310]

Well said mate

[@OutOfPocket-h9e]

Yes exactly, people should go for wilder builds rather than the "ready to install" type builds. The Cruisers at Rockynats were actually pretty wild, there were two with crazy engine swaps, one had a Coyote engine in it and the other had a BMW inline 6 engine which was definitely a unique engine swap for a cruiser.

[@Jacobtheunwise]

​@@OutOfPocket-h9e I get what you're saying but there's no point building something you can't even "legally" drive

[@OutOfPocket-h9e]

@@Jacobtheunwise You can do crazy builds while still keeping the vehicle road legal (mod plates, staying within modification regulations, etc.), obviously, the flex c is not road legal cause it's not meant to be. I'm just referring to the typical 4x4 builds you see all the time, maybe it's just me but I find the those builds quite boring, I guess I'm just used to seeing Landcruisers with your typical mods you can buy at your local auto stores.

[@scottbeattie6645]

Love the attitude Sam and your enthusiasm and encouragement for others building their dream vehicles. A couple of aspects I love with your content is when you share mistakes and hang with mates in the shed. We all need shed time with mates and it’s super important. I think the keyboard warriors come out when someone like yourself takes risks and enjoys some success. Keep up the awesome work.

[@speyles]

Hate to see it when young teenagers are critiqued by the older generation with more money and experience Let them have a crack!!

[@mccallsensei3293]

100% Its the enjoyment of the build. Keep doing ya builds.

[@mcgonical]

I hadn’t watched your channel in ages but this series sucked me in - I love your useless, provocative build - it’s beautiful and I learned a lot with you along the way. Champion.

[@macpreston]

Keap doing you man as ive always said, Build it Your Way!! Gotta commend how hard you and the team have been working lately! Bloody smashing work out! Good to see!

[@brycemaligin7095]

There's always one man. Love what you do, and love you were the first and only to do it. Keep smashing those "Impossible Goals" and bring them to life dude. You have my full support.

[@isaacharris4880]

Swear this was one of my hot wheels cars growing up. Brings out the big kid in me, and will hopefully inspire young kids to go and create weird and whacky things like this in the future. Legend for making something as crazy as this!!!

[@seanflanigan4508]

Mate, you're probably not old enough to know the cartoon "Wacky Races", but remembering all the crazy impossible wacky cars in that cartoon is good reason to love everything about this build. This is a hilariously awesome marriage between Wacky Races and Mad Max. Love it!

[@RaceCrewz]

Keep building all the cars you want to do. We all enjoy it.

[@benkemp734]

Really appreciate that you were a very approachable bloke at Rocky mats Sam, love your work mate, if they want to see a serious supercharged petrol v8, send the link to the original patrol build 😂 keyboard warriors!!

[@speyles]

Much appreciated

[@jonailly]

Fuck the haters, you do you. Hope to see it in Perth soon. Well done mate 👍🏻

[@sam_pedro3702]

Love the build mate. Its one of a kind and you designed it. The haters are jealous

[@Matt_Halley]

Can’t believe you have to explain yourself and your build! You build cars like no one else and do stuff no one else can or will, like many other we love that! I find it fascinating how skilled you are, and how many people you have around you to help! Keep doing what you do, no one else really matches you in this unique builds 💪👍🏻

[@PanSizedSpearos]

Saw this build at rocknats, walked around it for 20minutes just taking it all in. It's a great expression of what you visualised in your head, the originality of it sure is something to be proud of, even if it doesn't fit into someone else's category. I'm sure if you wanted to build something to a high quality you would be more than capable of doing so, Your channel is great for doing something different to everybody else.!!

[@jessesapien2222]

loved seeing it in person at rockynats, missed you but. fun project and stuff what people say, it's a learning process and it's how youtube takes off haha build the wildest fun toys!

[@darwonboyful]

Dude I love this thing. It's pure car insanity and give a big fat middle finger to the haters. Who gives a crap of its not really great at anything practical because it's great at being what it is, and that's being bad ass.

[@aestthetic9060]

dont care about the problems bro, to see it from screen, to in person, was the best experience glad you came to rocky.

[@AusMatt]

I like it 🤷‍♂️ if everyone built the same stuff it would be a very boring world.

[@blairskevington6631]

great build mate, you would of learnt alot making it, keep doing your thing and way to react to the comments like a champ

[@darrenrobinson7140]

Shame people judge from behind their laptop. I’m a mechanic and trade built my own cars and it’s hard work especially when you step out of the box like you have it’s a long term project fixing the last 10% then to get judged by someone who borrowed his wife’s RAV4 to go to the show and pretend to know what he is talking about sucks. Keep smashing out the wild builds.

[@jamesprice9936]

The car is ridiculous and that’s clearly the whole point…

[@Rangermods17]

Saw this beast at Rockynats. Think I went back to it like 4 times while I was there. What a beast

[@intimatespearfisher]

I saw it at the show next to Sammy's 79. It looks sick. Totally fucken pointless, but that seemed to be the point. Sam Loves muscle cars and fully sick flexi four wheel drives. His inner child obviously thought 'fuck yeah, let's do both!' You're a fun dude and this build shows not only that, but you are obviously mad and that is why we love you. There is a reason the number up top says 252K subs 🤙

[@RICHYSUNCLE]

If you’ve got the money you’ve got the money don’t worry about people 🤷‍♀️

[@LJCUSTOMRODS]

The car looks frickin Awesome, dude, more Australians need to build cars like that, well done lads

[@HermanVigil]

All that counts is that you are building something that 99% of the population couldn’t build and you are learning and having fun doing it. The kids are going to love it… best of luck on your adventure

[@79series]

Most old people that say "you ruined a classic" drive Hyundai i30s to car shows and have zero intention or interest of grabbing a wreck from a paddock to "save a classic".

[@rtarrant1]

Haters gunna hate. You do you mate…. that build was visionary…. love it.

[@greghatton70]

Sam, well said! I've often wondered why I am so hooked on your channel. I'm mean, I'm a 46 year old family man who doesn't drink and drives a Pajero! But I think you sumed it up when you said it's art. I think what you do is art, some will love it and some will hate it. Just like artists paintings. Hats off to you for putting yourself out there when you know yourself, that you're not a qualified fabricator, suspension expert, engineer or engine builder...etc. your an every day bloke making money from doing what you love and putting it up for public viewing! I admire that and I reckon a lot of the haters do too. But what I reckon is most admirable, is how humble you are when it comes to admitting you just f#@cked up something or posting footage of yourself learning something for yourself and not being afraid of the criticism this may attract from the minority who may or may not know better. Just keep doing what you do so bloody good mate and keep being Sam. Thanks for the content

[@jackbrettoner8033]

Hahaha what an ep! These haters really need to lighten up and understand not everything has to be practical, it’s doing what it’s meant to do look sick and bring people in! Love the build and the Channel Sam keep up the unreal work brother

[@countrychef29]

😂😂😂 got to love haters, they are just upset because they didn't think of building one.

[@chriscannavo-bm8wu]

Don’t worry about the haters mate! You did it for you, not for anyone else!! Even if it has no purpose, it looks cool!!, sounds tough!!, and actually drives now!! You let my misses climb up it at the brissy show, she loved that, but definitely keen to see more of it around!! Certainly a great conversation starter!!!

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Sam, from the very start I bloody sure you pointed out it was to be a show car that won’t be going off road or anything else if my memory serves me right, personally I think it’s bloody brilliant for the kids to see and the adults too as well the amount of things learnt while building this is priceless, top job I say, cheers

[@Buzylivin]

You’ll never please everyone mate fuck the haters, have fun building whatever ya like man! It’s your time and money go hard son! 🤘🏽

[@darrenmurphy1977]

I love that you had a dream & made it happen. The wife & I love what you do & your crazy adventures. Keep being you Sam Love your work

[@danietheron5769]

You have build it and learned a lot while you do that, as you yourself said. Enjoy it and use what you've learned. Not all thing need to be functional to be useful. You will learn more and more the more you change, fix and better it and in the end your clients are going to benefit from it. All of the best

[@chefcamsey1375]

I can't remember the last time I did a full service on my own car. Let alone build one from the ground up with some help. Haters gon hate. I reckon its sick

[@jonsey300]

Keep up the ‘BNB’ content bud , have always loved the vids mate , some people just don’t get it….. 👍 I hope you bring it to Melbourne I’ll come check it out 👌👌 👍👍

[@ToiletduckX]

While I dont like your content much these days, I really respected your early builds and how well they were done for self taught. Regardless, you're out there living the youtube dream and I'm jealous even though I definatly wouldnt go about it the same way myself. Haters gonna hate, just keep doing what you love Sam.

[@skud_doyle]

the hate comments are so weird. literally love watching a random build like this. pointless or not it's still a sick idea, has been super enjoyable series and is the exact kind of thing i'd expect and want to see on this channel. too many people voices their pointless opinions like it matters what they think about something you're doing because you want to.

[@The_zook_shed]

Whenever I've built something I'll always say "it might not be everyone's cuppa tea but I don't drink tea so who gives a fuck" my take on this is ya built it cause ya wanted too and ya could so ya did, love ya attitude towards the haters man keep up the killa work bud 🤙

[@yamumatittys]

I actually quite enjoyed looking at it at the Brisbane show, great work buddy

[@myxrutefalcon269]

Screw the keyboard warriors and haters. You have given the old xc a new life and a purpose. Your money and your channel. Keep up the good work 👏

[@matthewbrown8887]

You got to where you are building things how you want. And to be honest you killed it man! Keep it up 👍🏼 ❤

[@ClintonEtheridgea]

Do what you want and what you are passionate about. Great build listen to your heart and forget the haters

[@lukeferri7581]

Well done mate. Ive learnt alot from your channel keep up amazing work

[@harrywalker968]

ive learnt not to do what he does..

[@georgeeric7233]

Glad you did this video explaining things. Not my cup of tea, but it doesn’t need to be. The way I see it If you’re building it you can do whatever your heart desires.

[@maxfish4770]

Yep, like my pop used to say, it would be a boring world if we all did things the same

[@eliteweldindustriesptyltd364]

Great to see a different build, whether it has a purpose or not, something very different and awesome to see.

[@samsymes001]

The haters are jealous sambo! You have built a unique car that these other peanuts couldn't even fathom starting to build.. work out the kinks get er built have fun! Fk the haters and just send it your way dude 🤙🏼😎

[@freedomjose2316]

Fuck yeah bro that was a sick shot unloading FLEXC, goes to show how massive it is sitting on the truck

[@beaujangles1467]

"Go put that in your pipe and smoke it" 😂😂😂😂 even you couldn't hold back the laughter on that one 😂

[@Marlin2263]

Well done on building this beast. You should be proud of having the talent to build it. Kudos to You 👍

[@Repair-rookie]

Mate well done on acquiring the skills to build it. Just remember haters got to hate.

[@PaddyBoy644]

You look like you need a good month of Sam, don’t let em get you down. Make sure you take care of your mental and physical health mate. Thanks for the content. Cheers Pat🇦🇺

[@leonkane8240]

On these things I follow the wisdom of Uncle Rich of Rich Rebuilds: "When these haters get their own rusted out XC, they can do it however they want!" It's not how I would do it & probably like you, I would do it differently every time. I love it, its awesome & fun. There will always be someone to knock something, way of the world it seems.

[@chrisledwith3216]

Screw em. I took my 12 year old and 9 year old to see you at brissie. They loved it and you blokes were fantastic in just chatting to them and taking a photo.

[@victerbotma9375]

Your project your choices

[@donfinch862]

Klinger gasket material. We used it on locos, good for water, oil etc.

[@davidrose2382]

Waste of time ,where do you drive it without a deadly roll-over,it is shit ,lower it when little kids,are bored with it

[@amounifnd]

Love how your calling out the Trolls/Haters/Losers even though you shouldn't have to.....just think how many of them are as successful as you are and have the balls to do what you are doing ? They have nothing on you thats why they say what they say. I'm not sure how people can be bothered. No one has to like everything that others do, but going to the trouble to leaving comments like that shows how sad people are. Keep doing what your doing mate.

[@tren1hdt408]

So many flogs in the car scene, quite sad really. Its good to see a build that is unique for once! Love watching your content. Cheers! 🍻

[@adventurecorp]

That intake flange needs to be way thicker for reliability, minimum 8mm post machining. 👌👌

[@zacschmutter9466]

Man this thing is insane love the build bro 🍻🍻

[@ianhay1779]

Great build Sam. Ignore the haters. Most are brain dead. They probably think it's your new drift car!!😂

[@OutOfPocket-h9e]

Loved seeing this build in person at Rockynats, sick as mate 🤘

[@harrisongauci2487]

My favourite one was the guy who said it’ll be unsafe on the road. Like engineering that seems like fun😂

[@bumpngrind4x4]

I love it! You’ve built it for you and it is an awesome spectacle! I got my jollies just trying to climb the thing at the Brisbane 4x4 show. You do you boi and a lot of us will continue to love watching the progress. Please be my wedding car??!!! ❤❤ 🤪

[@deancarbery3766]

Haters should be happy if you didn’t build it they would have nothing to complain about great job being creative 👍🇦🇺

[@themessyman]

Hope you are looking after yourself Sam. Love your videos of the years.

[@knolez1546]

Wow. 4 years later, same voice, whole different appearance. You're more bogan now. Love it

[@jbm8444]

It will be orsum on the Tele-track river crossings, I had an XB ute 40 years ago, wish I still had it.

[@leed7951]

In Texas, this can be a daily driver. Love your videos

[@MTB4loamer]

should turn one into a full remote controll unit for the haters

[@Fitzy6722]

you should not have to explain yourself to all the haters mate. Well done building that mate.

[@cadwithcorey]

Ha ha , people are so quick to point stuff out . Great build mate . As for no drive to the front diff just look at the mongo truck in fast and furious it just had a diff cover welded to a bit of pipe . Keep it up mate , love it

[@ce00yonow28]

At this point, i would put alien built stickers on all exposed parts to see the comments! Haha 😅 Great Build my kids would love it, I do !

[@darrindouglas1]

As far as your manifold goes, you should have welded the head flanges with the runners and annealed them ( i'm sure others have said the same ). Should have been able to not machine them at all after the rest of the welding was done. Proper way is to build the flanges up and re-machine flat....PITA I know...... I knew the build was a "Mad Max" type, and I wonder how many KB warriors have jumped up and down with the butchering of the movie cars.......SFA I bet....... I will be checking it out in Sydney if I'm not away camping.....

[@-Fubar]

It only takes one person to stand out from the crowd to start a trend!

[@jewwychewwy]

no way this beautiful piece of engineering got hate.

[@steverohde1917]

Mate don't worry about 2 bolt and 4 bolt mains. I have a few blown bbc and have never had a crank fall out yet.

[@graysonbathurst7577]

SAM !!! Please mate make it a convertible and really piss people off 😂

[@speyles]

Haha that’s an idea

[@traviswruck3637]

​@@speylesnah paint a Holden sign on it lol

[@queensalnd]

One of the ol 'Duke' boys getting in through the window😊

[@NoMatureContent]

Theres no reason that thing wouldnt do a skid... just send it.

[@bamafencer12]

Sammy's demographic (4x4s, OG utes) is not for this build. This build is for him, not for those going camping and wheeling on weekends.

[@garywhite6981]

seen it at the show , thought it would be a great mad max truck, lol great effort .

[@Qw3lp]

UPPA Jrad spitting facts

[@ozcholo2734]

I hope youre looking after yourself brother, dont let the game take away from your own mental health. Everyone has pain that they dont talk about, I hope yours gets better

[@OutdoorTv313]

dont listen to all then haters mate i love the build do whatever you love

[@sickmick8846]

This thing is ridiculous and that's why I love it!

Glad you liked the name flexc man. Didn’t need to delete my comment that suggested it tho :( Hook us up with a flexc merch pack 🤟

Thats thing is awsome dont let the haters make you change your original ideas .. keep at it and get the alternator fixed 😂 keep up the good work Sam and team 👏 👍 💪 🙌 👌

[@GAMINGOBRIEN69]

I wanna see you send this through a mud pit or jump sand dunes or something cool with this beast please

[@traviswruck3637]

Sam at the end of the day ppl can have thier opinion because they don't get to wake up and walk into there shed and see this beast haters will always find stuff to discourage others instead of enjoying the journey

[@andreandrews571]

Love the comments from people who don’t understand. It’s just a fun build, f@#k them do what you want it’s yours after all. Love love love it🤘I salute you for such an awesome project and doing your best to piss some people off

[@dylantaylor4678]

Seen it at Rockynats absolute beast keep up the good work mate

[@shanenorwell8580]

What is wrong with all these sooks. At the end of the day most of these cars that are built as a “show piece” or art are never driven…so what. Out of curiosity how do you strap it down on the truck with the “flexxy” suspension?

[@chrismapley7513]

Bugger the haters should put monster truck Tyers on it be a good laugh
