- @MerlinsOldSchoolGarage and Makay are working on the ole Model A Coupe! This was an old project of Merlin’s that never was finished. This rat rod coupe is getting taken apart and reconstructed by the car surgeon himself!
Morning from Iowa I'm an old school body and fender man .I'm so happy to see someone doing old school yet .PS IM 80 STILL LOVE TO WATCH YOU YOUNGER GUYS LOVING AND DOING A LOST ART ,👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Am 83 from a large Iowa farm family originally. Love fixing and watching others fix stuff.
I’m 35 from Iowa and love working on the old stuff. A buddy and I are driving to glamis with some ‘74 heavily modified Honda Z50s
Hello everyone I'm from NW Iowa and the old stuff is the best
Hello fellow Iowans. NE Iowa. 40 miles North of Dubuque. 👋
I see you like Buicks I tried to blow one up on the way to the junkyard but it would not blow the engine was just too good I told also Michelle to paint her car hot pink her sand rail
It's really nice to watch you and macay work together. You two have got a lot done in 5 days. Very impressed.
Words that would never be spoken around Merlin's place:
"Man! I'm bored! There's nothing to do around here!"
🤣🤣🤣❤️😊🔧🔧🏁🇺🇸
I see Makay is an expert at CAD Not computer aided drafting but Cardboard Aided Drafting! A true master.
That is a sight for sore eyes. That is the way I learned bodywork in the 1960's. Everybody just migs it these days. Hopefully some of the younger guys will watch this and decide to try it. Hard to believe you are still doing it that way. Thanks Makay.
Nothing beats a great show, thank you Merlin.
She's a real door SLAMMER,
My quote of the week right there,
Aren't they all? 😂❤🎉
Pretty sure I could have sat and watched those to build all day!
Great job man. Merlin, your daughter is a very good editor and we absolutely love the choices of music. Love watching
Magic from Merlin and McCay .. priceless!
Hey Merlin,
I had once wondered what a Hot Rod built by you and Macay would look like.
Now I know, and so far I like it !
You've built it with the old school look that I grew up with.
I would say it is the correct way to build a Hot Rod.
I am totally surprised that it is happening alongside the Buggy explosion, but what a cool surprise.
Thanks for a great Sunday morning viewing.
Take Care
You guys are amazing craftsmen, I think ol' Henry Ford would be very proud of what you are doing. Thank you for showing us your work.
Great way to start the day, watching a Merlin project come together.
Don’t chop it, it’s all been done before, way too ‘70s…🤣
I was waiting for a coat hanger to go into that hammer welding on the back quarter - just love gas welding.
Did tons of it in my 20s, but that was over 50 years ago.
God bless you both Merlin / Mackay
Greets from Romania ❤️🇷🇴
😊🔧❤️🏁
Nice work gentlemen it’s always a pleasure seeing y’all going back old school with the oxy acetylene torch welding the body back together with a coat hanger!
Merlin living his best life Makay too. Love this build. Glad you video everything. So it lives on for future builders of old school knowledge
You and cousin Paul (Fabrats) are my favorite TH-cam peeps !
Same Here. Paul and Merlin are good folks, I always enjoy the videos where they get together on a project
Agree, but add Chad from Chadsfab too
And the new kid on the block, Howlin Wolf garage and don't forget Rory Irish.
I love watching you work Merlin, you and Macay work like a well oiled machine ❤❤
Good to See You Mr. Merlin’s Old School Garage, I appreciate you taking the Time to Share Your Work with Us. You Sir are Living the Good Life, God Bless You Fella’s. Watching from South Central Pennsylvania, Lord Willing One of These Days I’m Going to Shake Your Hand before He Calls Me Home. Keep It Safe Out There Fella’s
You need to wear a dust mask when you’re grinding all that rust that’s gonna kill your lungs
Merlin you are amazing at everything you do so much watching! What a great show of awesome workmanship! Can't wait till the next video!
I’m in and paying attention.. in ‘64, I was 9 and my older brothers, were chop, channeling and sectioning, 1/24 scale model, of of a 1934 Ford pickup truck.
It was candy apple burgundy, and kinky. Had rat rod wheels, and never once left my mind. You are currently ‘the embodiment if that year of my life.🙏🏾
That was a shit ton of fine work for one episode...merlin & McKay !! I can't wait till next week!!
You must have taught Robby all he knows. You sure are a joy to watch on these old hotrods. You must be relation.
"MEMORIES"......of times long past. Lovin this video Merlin.
Sunday morning coffee watching a new Merlin video, so great 👍
Merlin.....it looks like you need some more stuff in your yard! LOL. That was good maneuvering to get that into the garage. Keep up the great content.
A real pleasure to watch you 2 work/banter, awesome good stuff, from Dauphin, Manitoba, Canada😉👍
Merlin, You ARE a real craftsman.
Dont you just love when projects come together, parts finally get off the shelf and or reveal more floor space... Always a Good Day.
What a yard full of diamonds in the rough!!!
Love my Sunday mornings watching MOSG . Its the adults version of 60 years ago waking up on Saturday morning to watch old cartoons. I love it when you get into your Dr Frankenstein to start a new creation or to bring back alive a motor thats been sitting for decades. Looks like your running out of room at your museum of history ? Your driveway !
Merlin it is a pleasure to watch a skilled person work their magic.
Thank you , great car, a lot of memories for this old guy. Re living my youth thru you.😊❤👍👍
Wow, you two accomplished a lot in a short time. It is great to see a friendship last for so long. Merlin you have a great friend in Makay, he is a real hard worker.
You two are a joy to watch! Your communication and work ethic is spot on!
A real door slammer! I love it!
Thanks for taking us subscribers along for the ride. Merlin doing magic work. Love the channel. Keep up the great work. 👍✌️🤙🤙😎😁🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🪄🪄🪄🪄🪄🪄🪄
Its really good to see someone using the traditional old school hammer welding with a torch, this is something the new generation hotrodders know nothing about.
Looks like you running out of space…… 2 years ago….. you are the best… one project hunting the next one…… and Merlinsky in the middle of it…. Enjoying projects and life…..
Starting the SR-71 Blackbird's J58 Engines - AG330 Start Cart
The AG-330 Start Cart was originally equipped with Buick wildcat 401 cubic inch V-8 engines developing 400 horsepower. There were two Buick engines mounted tandem side by side with automatic transmissions. They were coupled together with a steel woven drive belt to drive a vertical shaft that was inserted into the starter mechanism on the bottom of the SR-71's engine.
On engine launch, there was one AG-330 Buick for each SR engine. For the first-time observer of an SR-71 launch, the engine starts in themselves were almost indescribable. For one thing, there were no mufflers on the Buick engines. As the Buick RPM was advanced, Flames almost three feet long erupted from the side of the start cart. It truly sounded like the beginning of the Indianapolis 500. Combine that sound with the steady increase of SR-71 RPM to engine TEB ignition at 3,200 RPM and then idle aircraft engine speed as the Blackbird comes to life.

Good morning from Indiana, I truly enjoy watching You and McCay working on your projects. Very talented.
I would love to spend some time in your shop with you two to learn this stuff. I have done lots of car stuff but watching you two, and being in my 60"s I realize I don"t know near enough. But mostly I admire your friendship with MCay. That is really rare. And "crawin around the floor"...I believe it's gettin further down every year. Thanks for includeing us in your build.
Love seeing these old cars brought back to life.
Good job on what you got done in just a couple of days. I dropped my LT1 out of the 97 Trans Am a couple of years ago and the 4L80 out of my truck six months prior to that so I have an appreciation for how you made it look so effortless. Looking forward to seeing you driving down the road. It will be one wild ride.
Thanks for the video.
Great Show t really enjoy watching your guys build a hotrod from the ground up. Never witnessed something like this. Thank you for taking the time to film and share it!
"And that's how it's done, Robby Layton!" 😂😂😁😁🤘🤘
this video was next level awesome, watching you and Makay working your socks off on the model A, i truly enjoyed it from start to finish. thank you so much for sharing Merlin
Awesome project! Really shows that people can do this stuff with minimal accuracy and minimal tools.
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
WOW!! That's one cool project!! Watching you design and build-as-you-go is very interesting. Love watching you and Makay work!! Looking forward to seeing what the rest is going to look like.
You make it look easy. The awesomeness increases.
Also the camerawork on the time lapses has improved a lot. Was great to see.
Your a machine Merlin,, as for McKay,, he’s the coolest dude in the shop,, most entertaining 🇦🇺
Thanks for the video!!😎👍
It is so nice to see torch welding and not tig welding.
Looking good! You and Makay are quite the team. Keep up the good work,
jack
Good day
Awesome work. My old man talked about channeling hotrod in the Late 1950s. Glad to see how it's done!
Good morning from Chandler AZ🌵
Gonna be sweet great work guys;)
"I put it in here for some cray reason and now I can't remember what the crazy reason is and I hate it"
Literally me with my 4Runner 😂😂 Can't remember why I bought it but boy do I hate it now
Happy early birthday to Merlin on the 28th.
MORE TOYS! Merlin u need 5 acres and mega barn!
I think Merlin is the HOA president for his neighborhood
Amazing! I really enjoy watching this stuff. I learn so much 👍🏻
My input on this awesome project, DO NOT CHOP THE TOP now that it's on the chassis its just looks the part as a stock coupe
I think it will attract more attention and realise a bigger return with unchoped top
That is fine ingenuity to use your custom sheet metal brake for forming the floor pan!
Awesome!! Nice old school hot rod❤️ keep McKay busy!
If you haven’t done it already you should box the frame to handle the extra power and flex. It appears that you have though.
Awesome build, look forward to watching to the end. Also love your back ground music
this brought back memories first form of welding i learned in school
Another Hot Iron in the fire ! It's taking shape ! Thanks for sharing !
Looks great. Now that it's channeled,I'm not sure about the chop. Personally liking the way the body looks now. 👌🏻
I think you’re right I don’t think I’m going to chop it now
Mormning from NY Small town !! Great work Merlin and McKay Looking really sweet cant wait to hear it run.
That's on my bucket list: Start using up my old stock to make room! LOL! You 2 make a great team! As Always....Thanks for a great video!
Coathanger, the old school wire of choice for welding!
Another great show Merlin & McKay, the car is coming along nicely.
I only wish to have old car like that to take to car shows great work
Awesome
That's a cool rig,thumbs up, thanks for bringing us along on your adventures
This is by far my favorite car you have, or have worked on so far.
Looking good
Hey Merlin McKay… That’s going to be so awesome can’t wait to see it do Burnout’s love it…O nice hair cut Merlin 👍💪🏻✌️☮️
This project is kick ass...great video McKay you are a trooper lmbo.
Mer she's looking purdy good.
Can't wait for the next video.
LOL Robby would get 6 videos just out fixing the gas tank ! The model A coming together real quick !
My dad used to use clothes hangers all the time working on stuff like exhaust. As a kid I thought it was so cooo to see him weld stuff with cloths hangers
I love classic, antique, hot rods, original, With that said, I never thought. I would like your channel as much as I do period treating ground up build. It's amazing. I love it
No joke that is going to be someone's dream car.
Enjoy your show hope to see you on your birthday. Good show as always thank you kindly.
I miss my old model A coupe
Macay just doing the POV filming, letting us get up close and personal with the camera. 😜
Truly old school, awesome work.
Your old hot rod coming right along...keep up the good work
That welding technique is awesome
Thx Merlin...coming together...
Can't wait to see it driving around Lake Havasu!
Merlin is there any chance you could list the music you use during your videos. Love the music you choose, reminds me of the days gone by. Thank you
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work 👍😁 living the life doing what you doing and being happy doing it.
What a minute… is that Black Body a 356B …… looks interesting….. next project or the body for that plainish 🤔🤔🤔
Damn Merlin, those rags were a fire waiting to happen. Lol. That mouse was a Green Mile Mouse. 😂 American graffiti yellow 😊
That Buick Wildcat looks like it would fit good in my newly acquired 63 Ford Ranchero
