this is what its all about, hanging with good friends, joking, pranking, and having a good times.. bikes will come and go, but memories like these will stay with you forever.
It was my 50th birthday yesterday. My wife gave me a T-shirt from Weels Through Time and I was very happy. A little later I received another envelope. I opened it and tears welled up in my eyes. In the envelope was a ticket to Dave's Harley-Davidson Museum. My dream was to fly from Germany to America for the first time and see the museum. Absolutely crazy. So see you next year, I hope to see you....
That's awesome. I live about 3 hours from the museum. I rode my Harley there last year in a group of about 20. The museum is incredible...you will love it !! So much history !! Enjoy your time here. Maggie Valley North Carolina is a fantastic place to visit.
Someone once said that a good man is someone who has an old friend for decades. Amazing how welcoming and generous your friend is. These people at times matter more than family.
Ok everyone, BEFORE you comment, put your glasses on and read the title of the video carefully, then watch the first 30 seconds of the show. It was explained... This is NOT an Orange County Chopper. It was not a Teutel build. If this was an OCC build, it would have an S&S "Pan" motor, a silly big old fat back tire, lots of pointy spikey bolts, and a paint job that looked like your dog ate your Christmas decorations and puked them all back up on the tins. We don't need another comment about how OCC was crap or whatever. This bike is clearly much older. It's a dusty Panhead! Getting a Pan and a Shovel for 8 grand seems pretty cool to me! 🙂
To get more views from dumb people that don't know what bs is put out to get views....and no I haven't watched it I just went straight to the comments@@stephenkemp3372
Matt, I really miss your dad, but you are keeping his vision alive and moving it forward, making it your own. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to get back to the Valley soon and see a bunch of new rides.
Matt, I gotta say your dad is looking down from heaven and he's just got the biggest smile on his face after wrenching on the chopper. When anyone up there asks your dad what's the smile for, all he says is THAT'S MY BOY!!!! Awesome job guys and how nice to have friends like your buddy with the great shop!!!!
Man, you guys really bring back the days of my misspent youth. I had a chopper back in the mid 70's and watching you ride that thing reminded me of an old man who said "Riding that thing is like wiping your arse with a broke bottle!"
My friend found a chopped 45 on a remote farm in somerset. after digging it out from the pile of rusty tools we started to see if it could run . The valves where stuck so we had to lever them out with the heads off and then with the farmers growing enthusiast help we put the valves in a drill to get the rust off .with everything put back in we hooked up a battery and got a spark so as I was sittings on it I gave it a kick and it fires right up .....12 inch over forks a green metal flake paint job and a criss dagger for a gear change straight of the box off down the farm track I went...... absolutely terrifying ride with a 50 point turn back up to farm and £600 later my friend was the proud owner. He rode it all over England in the next 20 years only to lay it up with a rusted through frame .so watching this bright back happy memories from across the pond 🇺🇲🇬🇧
So cool , a few years back I became disabled, thank you so much. It really brings back memories of the camaraderie working on projects together with good friends. Brings A tear to my eye. I wish I could ride again feel the wind in my hair.. 😢
That was so much fun and pleasure to watch - made me feel like I was right there with you - calling for tools, brainstorming fixes, and playing pranks. A few days a week of something like this could pull me right out of retirement! Thanks, guys!
I just had the pleasure of meeting Matt during a recent trip to the Carolinas. Thank you for being so down to earth and genuine. That being said I felt as if I was working on this bike with y'all. Great content as always. Thank you for keeping History Alive!
I agree with everyone here, these guys have chemistry and just need to film doing projects together. Funny as hell and still getting things done without drama, just men doing men stuff. As a tradesman I appreciate the ‘no problems, only solutions’ attitude and approach.
I hope you guys throw a video up for the FXRS also. Interested in the Dyno numbers on it when you get it tightened up...Great video on the Pan. Glad to see things are moving forward...Later
I love watching your videos!!!! I love getting things to work, but the back and forth between buds working on the bike was priceless!!! Felt like I was in the shop with you guy; Thanks!!
That was very enjoyable to watch. The respect you guys have for each other was awesome to see. I wish I had friends like that. What a sweet 61. Ride safe
Dig the hell out of those OG pan head rigid choppers. Nice save men. You're knowledge is impressive to see. Mike's hilarious as all get out. Thanks for taking us along for the ride Matt. WTT Rules.
If it weren't for Guys likee that dude, half of everything that industrial America has produced over the past 100 years would no longer exist anymore. It would be in landfills, and recycled. Instead it's being rebuilt, polished, and showcased all over our country. Collectors like him are the heart of the antique collecting community, and are the living historians of Americana. We should be so grateful that guys like him are willing to take up all their valuable space, space they could be renting out and turning a buck on, for the sake of saving rusty old objects that most of us would find just to be some kind of inconvenience to keep around. Instead they hold on to all that "junk," and "Junk" gets dusty over the years, and "junk" gets Rusty over the years, but it's still a big part of who we are as americans, and guys like him should be f****** saluted for saving it, not criticized...
Hah, good vid! I've bought that bike like 4 times, old pan chops are the best. You could hear the second she fired with the new coil and a hot battery she was happy. Have done that same thing with the clutch lever, just long enough to get to my buddy Ernie's shop, where we made a new cable. I keep a 4X4 block next to my lift for the frame rails to sit on. None of my long bikes will fit on my racks with the back tire on it. I was hoping you would ride it by the guys house where you bought it. Might inspire him to get one of his projects back on the board. Again, killer video. Have fun
That was one of the most awesome videos I’ve seen in a long time! It’s so down to earth and the atmosphere and comradeship of friends doing it together and making it happen is so cool! 😎
Loved the video and just how creative you guys got with getting the chopper running and back on the road. That front end wiggled more than a bowl of jello in an earthquake lol
@14:45 your using the channel locks wrong. When loosing you need to have them flipped to get proper grip. Good pairs have teeth directional and also even if not the way you then pull on them in your hand you will put much more force if you pull or push them with the pliers arch going the way you need the fastener to turn. Helps a lot and help you from stripping heads out. Just fyi cause a lot of people don’t know.
I cannot believe those guys got that bike not only running but riding!!! How amazing was that! Skill, craft, know-how and experience! Friends coming together, having a good time and making magic happen! Me and my friends do that ever time we tear down and rebuild a Jeep! Well done guys! You're an inspiration and if the younger generation would just stop and take the time to listen and learn, life would be better for all of us! Us old dogs have been around a while and we've learned stuff. I learned a lot from my Grandfather and I thank God every day he had the patience to teach me. He never threw anything away! If it broke you damn well better figure out how to fix it cause Sears or Monkey Wards ain't got another one! Great video guys!
The "It's a chopper, baby," was Bruce Willis' line from "Pulp Fiction." Great video, though. It brings back memories from the '70s and '80s when a bunch of us would gather at someone's garage and get someone's bike running again. 👍👍
My first HD was a stock 1962 Duo Glide that I bought in 1971, paid $1000 for it. Soon after that I bobbed it and eventually chopped it the whole 9 yards... back halved and stretched 6" with a weld on rigid conversion, stock 16" wheel under a flat fender hung on a medium sissy bar. The neck was raked to sit level with an 8" over front end on narrowed trees and an 18" front wheel and mini drum. Peanut tank, pullbacks and spring solo seat. About 1978 I put it back in a stock swingarm frame, with stock shocks and stock 62' tanks w console, cut back and machined the upper legs so the frame sat level w the 18" front wheel, stock rear fender bobbed a bit, pretty much a DIY Super Glide. I won't tell you how little I left that pan go for in 1985 when I was raising a family... you'd cry, I still do.
look at it that way: at least who had spent a lot of time with that bike and made many memories, and the day you let her go, yo gave someone else the possibility to experience the same.
This is actually Clickbait. I only clicked on it because I thought it was an OCC chopper and then looked closer and it said “country”…the video has nothing to do with OCC. BUT you guys still got another subscriber because of this video!
What a great video, brought back lots of old Pan and Shovel wrenching memories with a bro, had one of those invader front wheels, I think some of them had occasional failures, a blast from the chop culture
Man, love you guys banter, reminds me of younger days with my brothers working on somethings, sometimes too close to junk. Thanks for sharing. I'm gonna try to make it up there next week for your celebration. I'm in Salisbury. Take care.
Cool video, thanks! I haven't been to my friend's shop in a while, and this brings back some good memories. For all the commenters, my own comment below was supposed to be easy going, maybe funny. I was confused at first too, about the OCC thing. (Had to put my glasses on.) No disrespect meant. 🙂
Hands down, this was the BEST episode of Wheels Through Time I've seen. I couldn't stop laughing!! He needs to be on the channel more often. The chicken fingers comment had me rolling!!
Reminds me of when I was 20 I bought a 59 chopper just like this one out of a back room in a closed down Harley shop and everything you did to get this one running I did the exact same thing to get mine running even had the same coil problem
Too bad there are not more people like this anymore. You offer to help people out and you go help them and they burn you and get damn busy when you need help . Been so long since I had any freinds like this I forgot what its like .😔
Love the comraderie and working together. When guys rag each other like that you know they have been friends for awhile. I hope you rode by the house where ya bought it..
I love the group effort in getting the bike going. It looks like a pretty frightening bike to ride. I'd not be so interested even in new condition, TBH. Will be at Wheels through Time this summer finally. Can't wait.
What a cool bike! The chemistry between all of you guys is awesome. I could watch this all day long! Bringing another bike back from the dead! Awesome!
Hello, I was smiling throughout your whole video. Digging the friendly banter, and witnessing the maiden voyage. Ahhh, thank you for the pleasant visit . Peace
This is the greatest wrenching video I've ever watched. Bunch of really skilled guys physically Attack a motorcycle to get it going all while cracking some hilarious jokes. Was the greatest chaotic symphony I've ever seen.
Takes me back in time for sure....sold it 3 yrs ago but I found a 66 shovel at a estate sale nobody bid on and I ended up getting it for $350... had the aluminum sportster heads...was told it didn't run and it didn't but literally only needed a battery and timed.of course I put plugs and wires in too but thing ran like a dream...had a custom raked out front fork.overall the bike was 8'10 from the very front of the front tire to the back of the rear tire....was a blast to ride but my knee and hip don't miss it one bit
First time stumbling across this channel & it's a gem. This is a bunch of guys who actually know their shit. That chopper is probably built way better than an actual OCC piece of marketing crap.
That gentleman he got that FXR from, is no hoarder, I was born in 73, I would die to have that black FXR. Thank you for sharing 🙏 God bless you all ride hard and safe 🙏 🙏 🙏🙏
I’m not a huge old school chopper fan, but this bike has character. It would be a great rebuild project. Think I’d go with a springer front end, and spoked wheels. Chrome, with some gold / brass accents.
I really need to get up there and visit you guys. I'm only a little ways away in lil' ol' Clemson SC and I'm almost ashamed to admit that I've never stopped in as many times as I've been to & through Western NC. I'll get there eventually though. Thanks for sharing & God bless! ~ Scott 💙👊🏼
Reminds me of Freaky Fred’s old Panhead Chopper back in the day at R&R Cycle in Marlo heights here in Maryland. Used to buff & grind parts there and also worked in seat department. Good times.
The best video on TH-cam for me at least. Won't go into the long sob story but this one really hit home. Thanks for showing the awesome bike and the laughs getting it going
This was great fun! Have you guys been watching Junkyard Digs? Kevin would be proud! It's always fun to watch guys at the top of their game riffing off each other. Humor is good!
this is what its all about, hanging with good friends, joking, pranking, and having a good times.. bikes will come and go, but memories like these will stay with you forever.
Not just 'good friends', but good friends with vintage parts!! LOL!!!
seriously one of my fave episodes. They were having fun from start to finish.
Word’s of a Prophet….✨🛠✨
Looks like fun. A 65 HP. V twin cartoon bike.
😮😮😮😢😊😢😊😢😊😢😢😊😮😮😢😢😮😮
I met Matt a few years ago, he started 4 or 5 bikes for us in the WTT museum. This guy is the real deal. Great guy.
Thank you, sir! Hope to see you back at WTT again soon!
It was my 50th birthday yesterday.

Awesome! Happy Birthday from a stranger in Canada. 🙂
Excellent! Enjoy the trip!

50? Still ah baby enjoy yourself
If you have a bike to ride make sure you make a trip out west a bit and hit Tail of the Dragon as well. About hour and half away.
Someone once said that a good man is someone who has an old friend for decades. Amazing how welcoming and generous your friend is. These people at times matter more than family.
Hella chemistry between these guys, you can tell they are really long time friends! Love the fluidity to the rebuild, I'd trust any bike to the team!
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro man. It's a chopper baby
Try PULP FICTION
Shocking the shit out of him instantly proved it 😂
I wouldn't touch any OCC piece of trash with a 10 foot pole.
@@bigguy7353 You are crazy. An old vintage chopper prior to the stupid tv show stuff? That old bike isnt' a Paul Sr. build. I'd take that all day.
Ok everyone, BEFORE you comment, put your glasses on and read the title of the video carefully, then watch the first 30 seconds of the show. It was explained...

@stephenkemp3372 so you'll click on the video. Duh!...lol
But just so we're clear, OCC _are_ crap 😅😂🤣
How awesome. The guys wrenching, busting chops, having fun, and getting it done. A++. Men men men men! We need the brotherhood!
Matt, I really miss your dad, but you are keeping his vision alive and moving it forward, making it your own. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to get back to the Valley soon and see a bunch of new rides.
This guy needs to appear more in your videos! I'd watch a weekly show of this.
for sure man

Boy I can’t imagine these new ones will be as easy to fire up in 70 years time if they had sit in a barn for years
So cool , a few years back I became disabled, thank you so much. It really brings back memories of the camaraderie working on projects together with good friends. Brings A tear to my eye. I wish I could ride again feel the wind in my hair.. 😢
I miss doing this kind of stuff with my moto buddies too @((( the garage is still my happy place

The w.t.t. guy owns that bike now with all the parts he put on ! 😊
Nature welded...real life vocabulary right there.
Pulp Fiction!!!!! "It's a Chopper, Baby" 😁👍
Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead. 😂
"Grace"
Pulp Fiction!” “Zed’s dead.”
Beat me to it
Where did you get the motorcycle! It's not a motorcycle baby it's a chopper!!
The best part is it wasn’t even a chopper 😂😂
It had ape hangers. It’s a chopper 🎯🤓
"Whose motorcycle is this?"
Another really fun show. Thanks Matt. Thanks to everyone involved. Cycle Mo's Donation train... Thank you Mo.
The "It's a chopper, baby," was Bruce Willis' line from "Pulp Fiction." Great video, though. It brings back memories from the '70s and '80s when a bunch of us would gather at someone's garage and get someone's bike running again. 👍👍
Awesome Matt! So cool to see you & Mike hanging/working together. Great video!!
I'd buy all of the things that I would find. Matt is lucky to find all of these wonderful parts and bikes
My first HD was a stock 1962 Duo Glide that I bought in 1971, paid $1000 for it. Soon after that I bobbed it and eventually chopped it the whole 9 yards... back halved and stretched 6" with a weld on rigid conversion, stock 16" wheel under a flat fender hung on a medium sissy bar. The neck was raked to sit level with an 8" over front end on narrowed trees and an 18" front wheel and mini drum. Peanut tank, pullbacks and spring solo seat.
About 1978 I put it back in a stock swingarm frame, with stock shocks and stock 62' tanks w console, cut back and machined the upper legs so the frame sat level w the 18" front wheel, stock rear fender bobbed a bit, pretty much a DIY Super Glide. I won't tell you how little I left that pan go for in 1985 when I was raising a family... you'd cry, I still do.

From all accounts, this would be a better bike to get a hold of than an OCC.
So you can't read and are not smart enough is what you're saying
They’re a better show then listening to jr and sr
I wonder if Orange Country is like Rough Country.
I'd say you faired better on getting this instead.
Luv these guys ragging on each other reminds me so much of my brothers and I. Their gone now. Sure do miss them
Bruce Willis- Butch Coolidge- Pulp Fiction
It was Dead Zed's chopper. Baby.
@@jhs8496 originally yes
What a great video, brought back lots of old Pan and Shovel wrenching memories with a bro, had one of those invader front wheels, I think some of them had occasional failures, a blast from the chop culture
"Orange Country Chopper" they found it out in the country, a rural area, it's painted orange. C'mon people, read carefully.
Loved this!! When you guys brought out the " holy bible" for Pans to adjust mousetrap, priceless!!!
Sometimes ol bikes just need a little love in the right hands to bring it back to life
Seeing 2 old friends having a blast , put a giant smile on my face. Great video Mat…
Loved it !!!!😂
Man, love you guys banter, reminds me of younger days with my brothers working on somethings, sometimes too close to junk. Thanks for sharing. I'm gonna try to make it up there next week for your celebration. I'm in Salisbury. Take care.

Hands down, this was the BEST episode of Wheels Through Time I've seen. I couldn't stop laughing!! He needs to be on the channel more often. The chicken fingers comment had me rolling!!
"Can We Save This Orange Country Chopper?" The real question would be, why would you want to save this Orange Country chopper?
Exactly
It’s a pan!!
Reminds me of when I was 20 I bought a 59 chopper just like this one out of a back room in a closed down Harley shop and everything you did to get this one running I did the exact same thing to get mine running even had the same coil problem
He’s right I-recall “ Rootbeer “ was a popular color in the ‘70’s
Too bad there are not more people like this anymore. You offer to help people out and you go help them and they burn you and get damn busy when you need help . Been so long since I had any freinds like this I forgot what its like .😔

Yall make all the stuff that would normally raise my bp look absolutely fun. I love your videos.
I really enjoyed your show, great guys, good editing, great project and everything. I’ll definitely be back, thanks for posting.
Reminds me of Freaky Fred’s old Panhead Chopper back in the day at R&R Cycle in Marlo heights here in Maryland.
Used to buff & grind parts there and also worked in seat department. Good times.
I'm 30 minutes into the video and this is Awesome , their cracking me up working on the orange country chopper , 👍
Tumbling a nasty tank in an electric cement mixer with steel shot and industrial vinegar works like a champ. Great work fellas
Once again youtube does not disappoint! New channel to watch! 😊
Nice find Matt. I knew it would run. Just think about all the other panheads just sitting in old garages ,just yet to be found. PANHEADS FOREVER.
I don't miss the kick start days at all. You guys are truly professionals.
Having that popsicle pedal fall through to many times is what's wrong with my knee today.
Your buddy's a beast in the shop..what a friend 💯
Great episode really enjoyed , nice to see how much fun you all had .
The best video on TH-cam for me at least. Won't go into the long sob story but this one really hit home. Thanks for showing the awesome bike and the laughs getting it going
This was great fun! Have you guys been watching Junkyard Digs? Kevin would be proud! It's always fun to watch guys at the top of their game riffing off each other. Humor is good!
The big dawgs are hanging out and getting it done! Inspiring!
Amazing talent. love the chopper.
i like your videos its teaching younger generations a lot of thing about motorcycles
Dude you Perry and Candi are the bomb, best vlog yet.
"fart squeak" sound on compression check - giggles like boys, you guys are funny! More proof that fart jokes are ageless and timeless.
That bike shop though, man cavern. Can't wait to see it rolling on it own power, old school chopper for sure
Yeah man.. This is where memories are made.. Felt like I was in the shop with you guys.
That chopper reminds me of the ones I used to see when I was a kid in the 60s.👍❤️🇺🇸
This video was worth it just to see you and Mike together.
