The Unlikely Overlander
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 13 ต.ค. 2023
Building the rig, big plans coming. Overlanding in the most unlikely of vehicles. Can't wait.

Riding through cades cove and parsons branch rd. Quick day trip in my vw diesel powered samurai and my son in his isuzu trooper.

Zuk getting gritty!
Like the undercarriage view, thats new i think. How do yall do that?
That idea belongs to Hunter...mostly. he wanted to put the camera down low by the creek. I said the camera is waterproof just set it in the creek and we will drive over it lol
I dig it! Good job @@theunlikelyoverlander
Good video!
Stunning views, thanks for taking us along for the ride! Also, birds are awesome! Those were American crows.
The ones that say 'mother' 'father' 'brother' are called foot stones. that is the end on the grave. The person that it belongs to is the first stone you come to with the name etc. on it. That is the 'head' stone. Not all headstones have a footstone. The one you thought might be a bird bath could have been but another possibility is a family stone that was place at the four corners of a family plot.
@@Angela-qe7qg thanks for the info. I had not been in an old graveyard since I was a kid so couldn't remember. Not places I try to frequent. Lol
Looks like a great day
that Morrisons Outdoors Sticker is awesome! was the first thing I noticed
Haha thanks. Picked that up at the overland adventure summit in KY this year
Sweet clips
may i know what van is it there? seems ok off-roading.
@@kennethleungs the black SUV? It is a 2002 isuzu trooper. It does well. Biggest limitation is the IFS. We will be solid axle swapping and doing a diesel swap at some point.
@@theunlikelyoverlander wow! big projects! awesome you!
The OG sxs👍
Looks like fun! we need to head down there and check those out! the filming style is great!! I like channels that just show the action!
@@Kingston100LC thanks so much. We are still learning and growing but have big plans. Be sure to subscribe. We are going to start building a very unique rig in the next 2 or 3 months
I have eaten at the universal joint! It was really good, and they have Bold Rock Ciders on tap, a plus for me.
@@ahbeyra it was good but not nearly as good as in the past. Plus the 18 dollar burger was worth nowhere near that. But all part of the adventure lol
You cooked wieners and a wild Kelly didn't show up?! Shocking!
Lol, it's rare but it does happen.
I really enjoy the tire camera view in the water and mud 😄. Keep these awesome videos coming!
Glad you like them!
I'm gonna watch the rest of this later, but it's great. The scenes are spectacular. Cool save on the trooper samurai😂. Your music is awesome 😎
I saw you guys on Saturday at Sarah’s creek ❤
@@Ashere001 Awesome! We had a good time exploring despite the fact I was not feeling well. That video should be up in a day or 2.
Great video. Is that a suzuki? It's an amazing little beast
@@DavidThomas-qq4hf Yes, suzuki samurai powered by a 1.6 Turbo diesel. I'm about to start a new build that is going to be crazy. Be sure to subscribe and check it out! Thanks for watching.
@theunlikelyoverlander already subscribed and that sounds awesome! Can't wait😊
Finding graveyards is pretty common. Most families had them right by their house.
There was no closed caption but ida loved to watch it
@@ConnieFatheree apologies. It was one of our first videos and we were still figuring things out.
@@theunlikelyoverlander loved the First part hope you can add it sometime
@@ConnieFatheree be sure to subscribe we have lots of adventures planned. We love finding places with a story to tell. Check out this video, although not a true sequel it is in the same area. th-cam.com/video/g_1RT1PZ_YE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=B22GTFLK37ucqnu-
I like that tire water spray at the end.
Great video! Can definitely see improvement with every video. Keep it up! looking forward to more.
@@user-it1vd4yg5c thank you so much! We are trying hard to continuously improve
Cool adventure, thanks for sharing
@@CTMadModz Thank you! Love your vids. Been subscribed on my personal account for a couple years I think. Just subbed with this one as well.
@@theunlikelyoverlander thanks for the support boss. I look forward to where you’re taking your channel. Just keep posting, you’ll pass me up in no time! 🤘😎
Is it possible that was a house and it burned down with everyone inside? And they put all the stones in the exact spot they were found. Things like that were done back then!
@@dodgeguyz had not considered that but there were other families there as well so I'm not sure. Definitely something to think about.
Sometimes just a piece of field stone is all that was used...
@@jacksonholenc good to know. Love learning new things!
Let's go!! Love the music and Gandolph.
Loved it!😊
That was cool guys. Fascinating about the cemetery there in McFarland. Enjoyed the spider and beetle.
Great video buddy
@@buddhaqueen5999 thanks man
Kool vid! I have a feeling we are gonna meet up soon✌🏼
@@randalltryz9803 hell yeah man. Hope one day we can ride the rubicon together. But I'll settle with a quick visit until then lol
Hey keep up the good work, your stuff is interesting! Cool to see the processes
How many Ugga Duggas you got that impact set to? 😜
All of em. Lol
@@theunlikelyoverlander that is the correct answer!
@@joshhearl ugga duggas are for tightening though....when you flip the switch they become dugga uggas
I have a 94 sidekick block from a sidekick, Geo tracker 8 valve head, samurai intake, samurai exhaust, Weber carb, samurai transmission to sidekick adapter plate, center force clutch. I have bought every part that is under the hood new. Rebuilt transmission by zuks off-road. It's going to be super clean. After the engine installation I am going to buy the epic trek from trail tough and a air locker for the rear.
@@briananderson2078 sounds awesome! My next build will be something I've never seen done with a zuk before so be sure to give us a subscribe and turn on notifications. I try to upload weekly
I am rebuilding my 87 Suzuki. Very cool.
That was cool, i enjoyed watching the windshield install! I'm subscribed 😉
I'm convinced you know more about zukes than anybody on the internet. Also, I want some merch!
@@joshhearl oh plenty of others with more knowledge I'm just trying to share what I can. I had to shut down the wtsy shop temporarily but merch will be available again shortly.
❤from 🇮🇳
I like the build videos you guys! Keep up yhe good work!
More to come!
Don't get hit by lightning, again!
@@joshhearl lol nope. My big butt stays inside if there is any chance of weather
Great job. Wish I could motivate to work on my stuff. Also battleship grey.
You should!
Torque should be done in newton-metres as intended. Its more accurate. All specs will be metric. Suzuki engines are known for reliability because they are made with metric.
If only there were mathematical equations to convert from metric to standard.....
@@theunlikelyoverlander metric is standard
@@chippyjohn1 not here in the states man. Have a good evening.
@theunlikelyoverlander The states aren't part of the world? International standards are metric, it's what every country decided on. They are taught in schools globally.
@@chippyjohn1 I have no desire to argue with you. If you didn't like the content move on. There is absolutely no need for this. In the states we refer to them as standard and metric or imperial and metric. But either way my point was if you use the proper conversion it makes no difference which system you use to torque them. Have a good evening.
Awesome video. It was great meeting you guys at the event. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks man! It was great meeting you and getting to chat for a bit
Really enjoyed the video, especially liked the drone footage at the Overland Rally! Enjoy the music to your video, got a Tom Sawyer adventure vibe that I am digging. Thanks and I'll be back for more.
What trails did you guys run?
I belive the name was spaas creek or something along those lines. I didn't have my offline maps so I was just following lol
Great video!
It was awesome to meet you and your son! Hopefully next time we get a chance to hang out, we will actually be wheeling the big blue van. I’m still recovering from surgery so my plan for the weekend was to do exactly what I did. Ride the bike around and hang out with my friends, both old and new!!
We look forward to it! Yes, do not rush recovery. Hope recovery goes well.
It was great to meet you and your sweet pup around the campfire! It was our first rally/event also and we will definitely be back!
Was great meeting you! We are looking forward to next year and hopefully some events in between. Maybe I can get this other rig built before next year
@@theunlikelyoverlander I'm hoping to get to one or two others as well. Rig builds are never done!
Hey man, I saw you in severeville, and that's how I found your channel. Nice mini SUV btw
Thanks man! We were in ky all weekend at an overland rally doing some filming
Have fun!
Can't wait to see some of your adventures in KY!
Looks fun I want to go
