The Rat Rod Tow Truck’s Motor Overhaul!

[@alfredocarpaneto5976]

That look on Grayder's face was priceless. My RC car was one of my most cherished possessions as a kid. Whoever Dean is, kudos to you my man.

[@D3S1N3R]

Agreed! Pure joy!

[@tommy2facetv]

He says lol "best day of my life"

[@UmmmmmmmWhat]

Pause then click -->11:01 for huge smile.

[@mmoser9483]

What did the kid say? It was a Traxxis? Aren't they one of the best?

[@coolcamino]

You can never outgrow rc cars! Thanks Dean!

[@Farm_fab]

For those that don't know, Paul uses CAD in his projects. Cardboard Aided Design.

[@markstopkey4085]

And eyecrometer measured!

[@bonacker9762]

Don't forget the EYE CROMETER

[@stevenstritenberger1761]

Lol, excellent!

[@spaight711]

I have a hard time throwing away cardboard boxes, cuz as soon as they’re gone I’m gonna need to CAD something.

[@scooterbum46]

A hot melt glue gun works great for multi part CAD mockups..

Shoot, that smile on his face when he got the rc truck absolutely priceless!!

[@lloydfancett3039]

What a cheeser smile. 😁 I would have been cheesing that hard too.

[@michaelm1573]

why would you want to shoot someone's smile?? you've been reported.

[@lloydfancett3039]

@@michaelm1573 You must be very young, "shoot" that smile means to take a photograph. Before you take the flying leap to the conclusion you want ask a question or two it'll stop you from looking as moronic as you sound.

" If they would not have made so many cool cars , I would not want to buy them" Love it and I have to remember that one, Thanks Paul

[@allenlicher6653]

Your videos are priceless, between the knowledge you are sharing and family values on display, this is what America needs right now!

[@utahyork3338]

So glad to see parents that don't throw money at the kids. They learn to repair things by themselves. A valuable asset to have later in life.

[@stevenstritenberger1761]

You all should really have over a million subs. I came here because of Matt but don't tell him that I like watching you build stuff more than him recovering things.

[@scottmiller3535]

[@gordonmurray3153]

l'm a huge fan of the interactions how you guys keep family, friends & neighbours all involved together, at work and at play. Here in Scotland we call those 'freens'. Our traditional concept of the 'clan'. We like to say that 'what a freen gets, is no loss!' 👍 Looks like you do too 😊

[@1a1u0g9t4s2u]

Tow truck olympics??? Sounds like a huge bucket of fun and hijinks. Looking forward to that.

[@zekeabercrombie3583]

This channel has come a long way. Cleaned up shop, better shop practices, and impressive video quality. I used to cringe, waiting for the accident. Now I can appreciate the actual work.

[@gayle4804]

Grayson's face was awesome, Absolutely loved the video and your engenuity in getting that motor mounts and everything done ✔️ 😀

[@frankyrivers7418]

The best thing about this channel is that there is no script to follow, we just watch and learn, we are all on the same page!

[@John_B_Fab]

Happy kid, a smile and a thank you! This is worth a million RC Cars right there

[@BillSprague]

Dog says “I do tricks for belly rubs!” Grayer’s smile had gratitude written all over it! ❤️ You’re blessed with sweet kids. Great job, Paul and Michelle. The Off Road Tow Truck is looking good! Thanks for another great video!

[@bigtsperspective5831]

What pride y’all must have watching those youngsters learn and grow . Much love

[@TrevorDennis100]

I was not so sure about blocking off the offside rear brake. Nowhere near as dangerous than having only one front brake, but it is surely still going to pull to the left. I'm surprised his dad is letting him drive it like that.

[@1suoiraciv954]

@@TrevorDennis100 Dad lets them learn from there mistakes, maybe, If he even knew

Hello from Siesta Key Florida

[@jdmgatekeeper5849]

I like jace’s style. The hardbody is his first love. It’s all beat up but it’s his learning curve. I hope Paul helps him build that 2 door XJ one day. It’s gorgeous and rare. Would be a sick crawler.

[@wesgraham9588]

Nice to hear someone else does head Music , How ya doing ? I miss my Dad

[@Walkeranz]

Don’t be shy with the ragged out hardbody footage. That one looks to be just about broken in. It’s gorgeous. No D21 is complete without a dent or two. Keep her runnin

[@handymansteve]

i had 2 of them in college and after... basic 2wd std cab first, loved that thing... then a 4x4 5spd ext cab... there wasn't much that rig couldn't do for it's size... pretty sure i hauled trailers that were NEVER meant to be behind that truck... just had to be aware of stopping distance and go easy getting moving

[@troyrichardson2310]

Another Great video! Let's have a watch! Thanks folks!

[@jefftabor595]

Great video and that Dean guy did an awesome thing. Well done sir.

[@AR_420]

15:44... New Kids on the Block. 😆 Born in 81', very familiar with that tune. Unfortunately, it will be stuck in my head now for a few days like a seashell. Grayden's reaction could cure cancer! That's pure happiness right there. Good stuff😊🥲

[@ZachMauch]

It makes me so happy seeing you guys being able to have a little more money to invest and just throw around how you want. You guys deserve it and I'm so happy your channel has been getting more successful to enable it.

[@johngwinn6336]

Paul, Michelle...a mother's love is not surpassed and father knows best ❤ God Bless...

[@Paladin_of_Justice]

Paul and Michelle's little boy's face and reaction was priceless. As usual great video instructional and motivating.

[@moabwheeling1305]

Grader's expression was priceless ! That fan sure made his day ,and was an absolute awesome thing to do . Love how the tow truck is coming together and it's going to be a beast when its done . Catch you on your next video ,take care to the whole Cox family .

[@marvincarter870]

Grayden had a great face on when he got his RC today. Love it! This new engine from Lando's truck that Merlin pepped up should make a big difference in the Rat tow truck! When are you getting the Nugget back Robby said he's ready to turn it back over to you and Ben and Chad. Get er done! Keep up the good work!

Paul, a milk crate might make a better seat than a bucket. Maybe you could find a metal one at the dump.

[@handymansteve]

or in 1 of the many vehicles he has in the boneyard

[@flhtcui2000]

Smiling! Does that bring back memories with my son, (now 51) and his old Junkers. Let me not leave out my daughter, (now 38) and her cars. They both still call dad ,(now 72) for advice and help to this day. Got to love it. I called my dad a lot in my day too. He was the real mechanic from airplanes in WWII to cars after. Good videos sir!

[@bluegrallis]

@ 11:02, Great smile for "the best day of my life!"

[@moparman1962]

*Michelle...it's fun watching you hanging out in the shop watching and listening to the guys and boys (is there a difference?), Gracie, etc. Like most women's expressions, your face says quite a lot at times, and...you're a great "speaker". Lol Hopefully the coming office and bathroom (and merch room?) should make your forays down there a little more accommodating. Keep rockin' the Fab Rats videos with your appearances in and visits to the shop on camera...you have fans and it's fun watching you interact with the guys and your kids down there.

[@chrismclain8587]

any day Merlin is around is a great day!!! only missing Steve while Merlin is there

[@jeffmosley4043]

Great video. Merlin is one of my favorite builder's. Love watching him and Steve on Weldur up and all the other shows they do together. Tow truck going to be cool when done. Stay safe and God be with u and family.

[@denniscleveland669]

It’s cool, to see you all of a sudden, have another piece of equipment show up in your shop. I’m sure that there are people in your ⭕️ of friends and acquaintances that upgrade stuff in their shops, or businesses and then one way or another you get some good deals or donations. God has given you a gift and since you use it for the good of others around you, you’re blessed.

Michelle, you and Paul seem to be a pair of really down to earth kind of people. The kind that a person would be proud to call friends. I love Michelle’s reaction when you all are wheeling and she gets scared. I would think it would make things more convenient for a office and restroom. Great work as usual.

[@cliffcross6487]

It's so Awesome to see the kids working in the shop with you.

[@eallen704]

Ya know I couldn't have had a better day... started binge-watching Fab Rats, and your cousin at Old School Garage until my wife and the dog took me for a 2-mile walk. Great Birthday for a retired 70-year-old! LOL Keep 'em comin'! You will conquer the CNC soon!
