I’m not the type of person to write a lot of comments, but this lifted Mercedes is awesome. I approved 100%.
I'm 72 years old , living on a pension but you brighten my life. I started working on my own vesicles at around 16. I wish I could work with someone like you as Bill does. Not to make money but to have fun in life. I wish I had the money to buy your merch and help support you and your sweet family. I do subscribe and watch every episode . Thank you for giving me and others something to look forward to watching and God bless you for your military service.
P.S. Hot Rod reminds me of my granddaughter that I don't get to see. I understand you adopted her? You and your wife are what all people should aspire to be.
Thank you and God Bless.
Love Rev. Jeff.
Couldn't agree with you more. Well said, and bless you, sir!
Is it just me or is the classical music with Puddin tearing down stuff super soothing and the most elegant thing in the world? I love it and it's super relaxing 😂
Been on vacation for 2.5 weeks, nothing like coming back to PUDDINI!!!!!!! RIP to the fastest lady in the world, Jesse, we miss you. Man Theo, what a great dog, can't say it enough!!! That thing looks freakin AWESOME, I can't wait to see how it comes out. So awesome
Vintage Benz owner approved. This is gonna live online forever in the Benz community, please take some good pics when its done. LOL
I'm putting a manual 300ce together right now ,it's lowered with 500sl brakes and a turbo in it's future.
i love how this grates on the people who want to restore the car to 'concourse' level....
my brain says " !the car is too far gone for anything close to tbat! you'd spend 100 grand or more and still have something the concourse guys call 'A Junk Car' and it would be worth less than half of that fortune you spent. "
but Puddin's " MUDcedes " will live on in both Mercedes Snob AND redneck mudding community lore forever. [ the f8rst group turning their noses up and calling it a ' travesty " and the rednecks calling it " the only mudding vehicle fit for a King and Queen" lmao ( ironically both groups are technically saying it belongs in the other group.)
Ditto! I don’t mind it at all!
Buddy I would definitely park that in my driveway
@@NathanCEnyartjust to annoy the neighbors!🫠😉
Jessie Combs was a bad ass builder!!
Hot too!
BBBW!!!
Which stands for beautiful, badass building woman
There's only three TH-cam car channels that I can watch without literally falling asleep and this is one of them
Skid plate going from edge to edge and down under the frame on the front would look sick. It's almost a mad max machine! Awesome build puddin
I came here to say the same thing.
Ol Theo! I absolutely love seeing him show his character more and more. He knows he’s home.
You’ve done right by him.
Nice shoutout to Jesse. RIP
522 mph is one crazy way to go though.
@@FORCE_PBC agreed. Chasing the thrill
I mean if I could chose the way to go that would high on my list for sure
Not just a pretty face but she knew her shit!
She was an amazing woman
Possibly the coolest vehicle in your fleet!!!! I love seeing how much Theo loves you. He definitely appreciates his new home and family.
Dude black out the windows and you got a wicked 4x4. I am definitely excited to see this dream of yours come to full reality
Build a winch cradle under the front to cover some of that up
From one Brian to another, this is the perfect idea! Pott county off road recovery!
Bro!!! The tribute to Ian and Jessi! So awesome. I would rush home from church to watch them and horsepower and trucks....Joe and Jessi RIP
Early 2000s were the best. No smart phones or cameras everywhere.
Being born and raised in Alaska as a 38yr old man that works on cars for a living I love it. Can’t wait to see the future for it. I plan to body swap my 57 gmc dually over to a new 6.2L gmc frame and running gear over the winter. Much love
I love it! I think you and Slick should take the body to the next level. patch up the rust and give it a first class paint job.
Love how all of us grew up watching the power block on TV. Awesome build
Indeed!!!❤😂
Totally! That was the best part of Sunday!
Mercedes owner here, This build is one of your best by far !! Keep on doing what you love, We will watch and enjoy.
This is my favorite build this channel has ever done. The world needs more Pott County Couture.
I second that. Cool ride.
Hello from the PNW! I'm only 52 years of age but I've found it much easier to square up a square body frame, damaged in the front, by slicing the top and bottom of the c-channel. This leaves only the vertical portion to be moved by BFH and welded. Its amazing how far a frame rail moves over distance.
I won’t lie…you got me on the skid steer. lol I was like “he’s gonna miss that thing when they come get it”. Ha
Stop being concerned about what other people say about your greatness if they want something else to do, tell them to buy their own and do what they want to do with it. I’d never 4 wheel a car, but you totally nailed it. ❤
You’ve just made my inner child giggle with glee, this is why I keep coming back, every week. Thanks puddin
I like to see you stay on this thing and complete it,or at least get it farther along. I’d also like to see you start on that van.
👍🏼 “MADMAX” of Pott County! (Theodor riding the hood in Spike Collar. Jacob wearing a Hockey Mask, Slick 50 sporting a mohawk slinging boomerangs) Bill won’t sleep for months.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rupert has been elevated to a higher status. I love it. This needs to be a channel build.
I’m diggin’ that thing! I’ve been getting kinda bored with all the square body and get it running content.
I love this Mercedes. I can’t wait to see how you finish it out with the sliders/ side steps and front bumper. Go all out on this thing and do fix all the rust in it. Every build you do is awesome
Yes Sir. That has to be completed. 4x4 club approved !!!!!
My grandfather is smiling in his grave in Tellico Plains, Tennessee knowing I'm watching this beauty. This is right up our alley.
I'm not a Mercedes-Benz fan
But I'll tell you right now I love this build❤
Now this is some great content! I'm in a stage in my life where I set aside the race cars and old muscle cars and exotics and I've been building overland rigs. So this is just the best! Seeing them 37s go on that vehicle is dessert 🍨
So amazing how he just films all his stuff and does all this work all by himself. That’s why I support and watch the whole video Love it
Rip Jessi ❤
Ditto, such a skilled young lady.
@@kerrypierre9494 her life was definitely to short. So much talent and always positive. She definitely left an impression on the car world.
Full build please!! Looks amazing!!
I love how you’re able to get all the 3rd grade drawings inside my head and make them a reality. Kinda thought the Benz was gonna be a restomod but enjoying this direction for it.
PS - it is so great how yall have Theo the best life he could ever have. Theo is kinda the “Puddin” of the critter world. Staffy dogs are the absolute best critters.
Glad we finally get to see Rupert!!
Rupert is the butler. We saw the snotty snot snob that Rupert works for 😂😂😂
Extreme 4x4 was where i became a fan of jessie combs following her through shows like all girl garage as well truly talented she showed women have a place in the automotive industry and her passion kept me wanting more she will be in my heart forevermore rip❤.
I remember she would tackle wheels and tires I would never try to manhandle.
Puddins nicest gray poupon digs is a walmart collar shirt and some black jeans lol. Love it
I didn’t think I would like it. But, this is the old school fun type of video I was craving from you! Excellent job.
My favorite episode in the new shop hands down 😂
I was not really interested in this car at all, but when I saw the photo on IG, I'm HERE for it. Rock on Puddin'.
I didn't think i would like it at first, but man, oh man, I LOVE IT!
I had a blazer datsun combo for about 20 years. It's the best of both worlds. Eventually, the body couldn't take the flex anymore 😢 a lot of memories.
As soon as you design a T-shirt with the 4x4 Mercedes. I'm going to buy one !! Definitely BADASS !!!!!
@@davidwaynesingleton6826 Ditto 👍‼️
Oh gosh I didn't see this vision and it's the best thing ever! Stuck in a mud hole with fancy cheese and crackers with grey poupon! Love all this. Mini box trucks and classy mud luxury monsters!
Didn’t think I’d love this as much as I do!!!!!
This is the most exciting thing I've seen on TH-cam for ages! It's epic and i love it!
so cool! Build a period correct bull bar up front and wrap it with an old school tow rope like the old military vehicles used to do.
Probably one of my fave videos since the wagon. Would love to see this completed!!
You should have Okie Windmiller put a pond aerator windmill in for you. It will be a nice view for your family and keep pond healthy. Bonus, you can help him out some more too. After all, Mortske says you got the cash.
Lookin' good! Keep on it when you can. Can't wait to see it driven when she's all hooked up!!
God damn, puddins done it again, please more of the mud-cedes, absolutely love it.
6:10. Theo has Puddin wrapped around his paw❗️🐾
LOVE ❤ Keep on building this Mud-Cedes! You could build a bull bar, or push bar for the front to hide the frame. Put a winch on and use the rig around the workshop.
I’m picturing the chrome front bumper dropped and extended out. I like the idea of dropping the rear bumper. Can’t wait to see this thing driving! So cool!
My suggestion for the front is place a winch plate up there. The winch can fill in the space between the frame horns. Then some triangle tubes from bottom of frame horns up to the existing bumper.
Very fun cool build!
I have never been a fan of this style of car truck thing but THIS...
I'm all for!!
There's nothing wrong with the Benz looking great. Keep making videos and we'll keep watching them.
That's a thing of beauty...sniff sniff😍. I'm no expert but I wouldn't worry to much about the frame being exposed. MAN , YOU'VE GOT A FREAKIN' RAISED MERCEDES. NOW THAT'S COOOOL!!
Definitely would be worth getting new frame!!! I would love to see it Done!!! Love this series!!!
Puddin, I'm 100% behind this project and absolutely love the Mudcedes!
I love it!
Also, you need a drill press. I used to think that when you were in the old shop. I still think it would pay for itself by extending the life of the drill bits.
Love the Mercedes! I need one!
You have definitely "sent" that ole merc puddin......it's looking awesome already. We are here for it!!!!
Who needs a frame rack. When you have a towrola!!
And a tree.
When it comes to straightening frames Puddin, You are a man outstanding in his Field. Lol
haha literally!
I really rate this build cause it is so different and unique. Can't wait to see the puddins fab shop touch given to the mud-cedes.
These are my favorite! This is the stage when the artistic side comes out. Happy for you Puddin. I choose to be a nomad and my wife and I travel the country. Would love to meet you someday. Keep it up! From an Air Force Retired mechanic, I know you love that grind!
Gotta finih it puddin. Its super cool
I absolutely love this build. I hope you go as far as you can with it. There’s a lot you can do. And it’ll be a one of a kind.
This is going to be an awesome build! I can hardly wait for the T-shirts to come out!
This is a win. Unusual and different is your thing. Keep up the great work and look forward to seeing it run
That pup really loves you.
Awwwww the good ol alinement tree works everytime lol
great idea and really like the look of it! respect to you for attacking a project that size by yourself
Absolutely finish it! I'll be really interested to see how you hook everything up.
You need to finish this it's so cool.
This is your best produced and edited video yet. Probably your best “build” too! AWESOME!
6:04 That good 'ol boi sure loves his boy. I'm not much of a pit fan, but Theo is a keeper!
Great start I hope this build continues. Sema rig for sure! Great stuff!
Oh hell yeah! Just based on the thumbnail alone I can tell its gonna be a good one
Can’t wait to see you go the whole way & build the Mercedes and get it roadworthy.
Front bumper-just build a bumper big and bulky enough to stand on it so u can work on the engine if needed.
Hidden winch bumper in the front... relocate the gas tank/fuel cell to the trunk & drop that rear bumper as you mentioned and that'd be an awesome start appearance wise. Thanks Jacob for all you go through to entertain us! I know it's "your job" and you do have some fun with it but, I know it's not always easy so just know that what you give us is greatly, TRULY, appreciated! God bless! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼
Thank you for something not dropped on steelies. This is what I wanted to see on the Datsun wagon if you didn’t sell it. A little something different is always nice. Looks good 👍🏻
It’s Puddin time😍
It's puddin time children, and friends!!
Puts up 12 foot ladder, climbs up, slaps the roof. RUPERT!! Look how much Grey Poupon you can fit in this bad boy!!! AWESOME build. Can’t wait to see more!!
Yessir. ! That’s all kinda of awesome! Skids and a bumper up front with some rock rails on the sides. Just too cool. Very Mad Max
aint it crazy how a killer bread dog can win your heart in just a minute i was never in to pitbulls till my wife got one behind my back and that dog changed my life ill never have a nother dog unless its a pit best love ive ever enjoyed i love leo
Don't forget to add "Frame alignment jig" to the Towrolla's resumè.
2nd channel idea. Give the Towrolla some love man 😂
I've been thinking of shipping him a transmission and door panels...😂
We're in Mad Max territory here. Love it. Looking forwards to see the progress on this beauty.
I'm not even kiddin... that looks really cool bro!
This thing is AWESOME!
My buddy put a later 300d(I think)on a Ford expedition frame, and kept the turbo diesel.
I'm currently cutting up a rusty VW rabbit to stick on a S10 blazer 4x4 frame. Was considering a 5.3, but it would require a whole frickin dog house inside and drive from almost the backnseat, or put the radiator in the back hatch area somewhere
That is one cool project. I cant wait to see it finished
Don't stop. I love this build. Finish it up like you did with the wagon!!!!
You should make “Ol Roy’s” front clip a desk for your office
Puddin I'd love to see a full blown crawler build from this thing! Cut fender flares, rollcage, the whole nine yards! This thing is meeeeeeean
“If you’re gonna be stupid be smart about it”…..Prof. Puddan.
Magnesium is highly volatile, and reactive…cool sparks.
Without a frame, I would assume the body has a high magnesium content for grounding purposes.
Saw the video yesterday and started watching it today. Thanks for making my day with sum good laughs and a cool, different build.
Keep up the sweet builds!!
Aside from the classic pink ranger, Jesse was my first love growing up. RIP!….I didn’t see this build coming but I’m freakin excited! I’m here for it 😂
