LOve my hat and T-shirt, Thx!
Blue
camo Green
Keep it Red.
May I please inquire on where and what brand are the new head lights in the jeep? I would love a set for my ford.
Hillbilly electical tip - Instead of cutting all the wires to the same length, if you stagger your connections, the entire loom will stay more consistent in size throughout. Placing all your connections at the same spot makes it look like a snake swallowed a rat. Loving this build!
well it didn't let me post a pic, but what it is , is a shop light, 5500 lumen, has a rotating feature so you can direct the light where ever you need it, stands about 40ish inches high. Was my answer to all my lighting needs under my lift.
Thats standard practice, not hillbilly! Very good advice though!
I'm a subscriber of both Fab Rats and Matt's Off Road Recovery. One thing I like to see is two friends wheeling or working. I've noticed that Paul will drop whatever he's doing to help Matt in a recovery or whatever he needs and I'm sure Matt does the same. That's a true friend. This world sure needs more of that. Well done guys and keep the great videos coming!!
We think a good “Mountain Dew Green” would look great. It’s good to see Papa Dar awake during the entire video. Good job guys
He would be if he drank enough Mountain Dew...lol
Mountain dew green? Aka p1ss yellow? Lol
I love Michelle she is so positive and happy and outgoing all the time it makes me feel happy to see a great family , love you guys
This channel is so underrated! Love seeing builds that are done quick, somewhat informative and not dragged out.
Thanks! That means a lot!!
I look forward to seeing Papa Dars jeep and Matt's Corvair climb the waterfall.
me to me to!
the Corvair look so heavy
@@kevinrandlett2920 I think matt said in one video its supposed to be around 4500 lbs
Papa dar must be getting excited, he didn't take a nap during this video! 😜👍😂
The power of editing probably
Nice job.
hahahah...Darr, " I cut it 3 times and it's still to short"...Get this man an emmy!
That is awesome, in the short rows. Those floor pans looked pretty substantial. Glad to see Dar has his cast/brace off.
Ralph Red. My grandfather Ralph Thompson painted everything Rustoleum red! Lol
Looks like Papa Dar is feeling better, and eager to help out!
21:15
God I love that laugh !!! Your 1 lucky man!!
Paint it army green, look like an old school army jeep on steroids
The mt dew decals army green and the rest mt dew green
That would be the best an army green like the old school jeeps ,or like a sand tan color that they used to have on the military humvee's .
if i could paint everything i own army green, i would
Good to see Dar's arm back in action!
Thanks for posting! The race to the finish line. Paul building the Yj, and Matt building the Corvair. Love watching these projects come together.
Yep. Which one will be done first.
Tinkers Chance, we need to “make book” on the race. 😎
It's nice to see Dar out of the cast and using his arm!
I was about to give up on the Fab Rats video drop for today! Really glad I got to see the Superhero in his Heromobile!
Good to see a smile on darrsvface.
Now it’s time to build the boys square body; excellent father son, and momma project. Looking forward to that build.
it's nice to have good friends to work on fun projects while building memories.
It’s already red ! Just easier to keep it red. 😉
That'd be my choice, although the Army green suggestion sounds good too.
Desert camo bottom with green camo naturally blended together ,jungle meets sandy desert mirage like one of a kind.🤔👍😊
Paint it bright orange w a text on the side, or hood saying ”orange is purple” 😆
Does anyone else look away from your computer when Paul strikes an arc? Old habits....when the mig start frying......"Oooooh oooh don't look!"
Dar should paint it purple in honor of the missing wire color.
Agreed ... Slurpee Straw Purple
Definitely one of a kind!
He'll be the envy of the Jeep guys on the trail!
The state color of Alabama: Primer. At least that's what Larry the Cable Guy says.
The hood decal should be “RUBIDAR”
Cant wait for the how to paint your jeep with Michelle segment :)
Perfect video, there's only 2 channels on TH-cam that I watch every ad on. Yours and Matt's.
Awesome!!👌
Green looks good on a Jeep.
Funny, here in rust country when something needs transmission lines it gets the steel lines cut and rubber lines installed!
4:06 you mention having a 50/50 chance. Had a college professor that taught our class about the 50/50/90 rule. He pointed out that anytime you have a 50/50 chance, 90% of the time you will pick the wrong thing. I don't know if I have encountered a more true statement in my life.
THIS REPLY MAY OR MAY NOT APPLY TO THIS VIDEO...A FEW DAYS AGO I WAS WATCHING UR VIDEO ON & ABOUT SHOWING UR WIFE HOW TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL IN HER CAR..&..YOU BOTH DID A COMMENTS REVIEW THING...I THOUGHT THOSE COMMENTS TO BE RUDE & MORE OF SAME...PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE URSELVES BECAUSE OF BAD COMMENTS...PLEASE PLEASE ALLWAYS REMAIN UR TRUE SELVES..THATS WHAT MAKES THESE VIDEOS INTERESTING & REAL...WE REQUIRE MORE REAL ALL THE TIME... L O L OVE ...
Paint it Partridge Family style. It's Frankensteined together, make it look so.
My Mum at 85 used to drive her heavy diesel engine station wagon which had no power steering.... when the guys from the garage came to pick it up for a service, they used to complain about that.. they had a tough time steering it round the block... ha ha. This jeep looks like it has a long life ahead of it! Looking forward to seeing it get a work out.
The trick to steering is to be rolling. If it is stationary you need a sumo wrestler to move the steering wheel,lol
I put the same headlights in my XJ, just with a black housing instead of a chrome one. They are FANTASTIC
Dar's Jeep has beat the Corvair to the self driving benchmark!!👍
It's getting much closer to being able to do some rock crawling 🥳
I'm thinking Dar will want a seat that is a little more secure and has a little more padding for those occasional bumps 😉
Good job 👍👍
Yep. Definitely (Go Juice) Mountain Dew Green.
I had been wondering how you get away with driving vehicles around without registration, lights, brakes and the like. Then I realize your neighbor and good friend use the mayor's father....... Great too have those kinds of friends. Love the builds.
Safety green! (Looks greenish yellow to us.) Us old farts can't see much anymore, so it's only fair to everyone else on the road or the trail, that they are able to see us!
5 years from now Paul will be like "what idiot used a purple wire to extend an orange wire!" :D
Always looking forward to your channel!!
Paint it in olive drab , makes it that more cool .
Hi guys, just wanted to say that sometimes the dialogue audio is really quiet. That mixed with the cuts to loud cutting/grinding can be jarring since I end up turning it up to hear Paul speak, but then have to panic turn it down when he starts getting to work or I go deaf :) Just something to consider! Keep the vids coming!
We really try to adjust the volume from soft to loud, but we’re no professionals over here.😜
I was getting worried that there was a MORR video, a Casey video...but no Fab Rats video. You came thru!
The jeep looks like one of those old "radio flyer" wagons
That would be an epic paint color!!
lol , i knew the proportions reminded me of something .. thanks
The metal at the beginning looked like pure Beskar. This is the way!
The jeep is alive...👍. Papa Darr has a good looking Jeep...good job Paul...
Kinda, sort of, not quite perfect, close enough, good enough, it’ll work,love these mechanical terms 👍👍
dont forget eyecrometer
And everybody thinks the oversized Amazon boxes are a waste of cardboard. Little do they know...
Baracoda Slime Green for the paint! with black stripes
Not going to lie but this morning there was only a video from Matt's Offroad Recovery and no Fab Rats. It honestly made me not want to watch Matt's video lol. But know here you are to close out the day lol. Hope you have a wonderful evening from Beautiful Colorado!!!!
I’m watching from the uk and loving the channel
I hope to get out that way in the future
😊
Reminds me of a CJ 8!! Great job! I think he should paint her a desert tan like on the old toyota trucks used to come in. I believe mine that color was an 89.
Great follow up on Papa Darr’s YJ running after Pauls weld up. Lots of work. Great job Paul 🤙😎
Saw you knocking your light off, I'm sure it's happened before, I know for me, it happened a lot, so I built this. Makes it look like the sun is shinning on it. Repurposed every thing. Wheels are off an old office chair. Very light weight, you you hit it, it rolls instead of flopping over. Has really worked well under my lift.
I say bedline the whole thing if you're going to make it rough and rugged you might as well go all the way
Yeah just don't use the guy at ?Las Vegas rhino liner?? that Matt used for the corvair. !!!!! It seems like he had poor quality control
Old army green is a good color? Someone already suggested!!
Crab olive green exterior( it’ll hide the scapes and pinstripes better)...bed liner EVERYTHING else. That thing is a beast!
👍👍❤️
It looks pretty sick. Can't wait to see the completed form. It's gonna be badass.
Paint it “go go juice” green.
Or British Racing Green, or that Jaguar Green :)
@@gregormiller4037 wanted to paint my rally car British racing green and was told it will show every panel fault so black and white it was ,cheers mate
You should paint the jeep the same colors as the corvair on matts channel lol. Y'all both crack me up 😆. Papa Dar not taking a nap in the shop? That guy loves his naps 😆.
When old guys need are nap
Mean Machine Darr !
Looks good. Well done.
Banana yellow upper half with some medium gray on the rest comes to mind, for some reason.
Dad gum it! You messed up my Sunday morning by not posting a video. Now I'm all discombobulated. I hope you're happy.
Me to!!
Messed me up too
Great video ya beat Matt he's not running yet good job oh I miss the cackling behind camara
Oh you guys! We eventually got it posted up.😜 Glad you miss me! -Michelle
The Apache helicopter pattern 👌 for Desert.
Right on!! Now we just need a video of Papa Dar wheeling with Matt's Corvair. Let's go!
Color, either caltrans orange or equipment yellow.
Definitely not "Winder yellow", how about the same shade of red that matches the interior?
Great job Paul. Thank you very much for sharing.
Can't wait to see videos of this on the trail. Fab videos are great, but let's see more of the fabs being used on the trail. Beautiful country out there.
Copper, like the jeep golden eagle.
My "Golden Eagle" was white.
@@ottokiehl5413 yes. Some were.
Great job men. It's nice to see it finally rolling. One step closer to wheeling.
Papa Dar had the look of ABOUT TIME on his face. It was priceless. Even when everything goes like it is supposed to. They take forever to build. Great job as always Paul.
How can you let that old dude drive that death trap, give that jeep to me and I'll take care of it. Kidding but I'm happy to see it go.
I say you paint it the same green you painted Matt’s trans.
I agree paint it same color of mat's trany
Looking good guys!! That thing is a beast.
fan-flipping-tastic!! love it!! ... great video Paul....thank you... :)
Great job Paul, spot on
Paul has the greatest attitude
It's gonna be awesome once you get that seat adjuster fixed! 🤓
Starting to come together real nice. That'll be a beast when you're done.
Awesome, greetings from Bulgaria.
Really nice! Wish my YJ was set up like that. Glad to see I am not the only one who gets caught on the door lock pins.
Thanks I enjoyed that! Dar is looking real happy!
Great project - thanks for the video !
Thanks for the upload, Paul & Family; pleasant surprise before sleep!
Congratulations,it moves again....😁😁👍👍
Love watching the videos of all the fabrication!!!
Good job on the Jeep. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
looking sharp!!1 So much progress!!
Can't wait for the tow truck build
good to see Dar on the mend! take care y'all.
I've never seen anyone use a torch to solder with! Awesome work guys!
That is the best YJ I've ever seen. I'm thirsty for more videos. Built!
Great video, it shows all the little bits of work that need to be done to get a project to the end.
Somebody ought to make a list of all the stuff that has to be done, otherwise a bunch that little shi..... Will be forgotten, I'm just saying 😎
Love the little wire clampy thing!
You should get it painted dark purple, with black around the edges. Will look sweet.
