The Decoliner is one of the coolest vehicles I have ever seen. A blast to drive from the fly bridge and also practical and beautiful throughout. Calling it a drivable sculpture is accurate, and you are an artist who has brought a vision to life.
Totally enjoyed watching this video, what a cool unique retro looking RV van, it has that early 1950s space age concept car look to it which I find fascinating! :) And Randy's speech at the beginning of the video about the importance of taking your time with your creative project and getting it right and not rushing it to get it done quickly is an inspiration for me to be more patient with my projects particularly when things don't work out as I have difficulty not wanting to "get things done" quickly and worrying about time as I'm caught up in the high paced way of living as well.
Well said sir I to am always caught up in the hustle and bustle of every day life it's nice to listen to this man and have him remind us it's o.k. to slow down and take our time on the projects we work on
I like how he see's each vehicle as a usable sculpture, as opposed to an item to get from a to b which happens to look good. He is extremely enthusiastic about his work with great attention to detail with both the drivability of each piece and the visual impact.
No, you did NOT spend too much time building that sculpture. The colors, textures and materials are spot on. Simply beautiful and well worth every minute.
I love some of the comments on this page. "Hmm well I don't care for this" or "the interior needs that". As if any of you have built anything outside of your Forza Motor Sport garage. Complaining about the Decoliner's interior is like looking at the house from UP, seeing it float around by virtue of party balloons, and someone going "it could use some new curtains". If you can't appreciate this, you don't know what fun is.
I build race bikes. This art deco shit is stupid. Sorry if others don't agree with you, get over it. Maybe you should get out in the real world and do something instead of fawning over videos.
+alZiiHardstylez It's not, bro. We spend time on the things we find interesting. As long as you were happy when you spent that time there's nothing to regret. If you feel like doing something else there's no time like the present to change though. Just remember to be happy in life.
I remember this guy, he featured as the guest on one of Jay Leno's garage episodes. He is so passionate and loves his trade. Such people are rare in this world now...
I am totaly,totaly impressed with everything, from the patience,to the quality to the workmanship and creativity, we have last this in much of Americans, with the fast food and a fast buck,THUMBS UP.WOW.
I got to 11:30 before realizing I could see this in Fallout. Gosh I love this guy's project car. Not only it looks mindblowing but it actually has function.
@yuridaman This video is Randy's story. Not mine. The whole point of the video is to show Randy's passion, and we felt that we could let him do all the voiceover and tell his own story as a change of pace from what we usually do. I think it was successful.
Dude had trouble keeping the wheels off the centerline. Otherwise, a gorgeous vehicle. Dymaxion, anyone? Or is that too far before your time? Look it up....
Neddskorg There are side mirrors up there. This is a fun project, yes, but of little practical use as a motorhome. Jay Leno drives this rig much more competently right off the bat.
No one else is making videos like these. Its genuine, no ego, just love for the cars and the creative process. Thank you Matt Farah and Tom Morningstar, that was one of your best yet :)

If the police pull you over, how do you hand them your license?
absolutely amazing, I could not stop grinning, that has got to be a blast to drive, and just what he said in the very beginning is just so true about people trying to figure out a way to make everything faster to build and taking pride in what their doing
This gentleman is a true artist. His approach and philosophy to vehicle design is truly refreshing. This is so much more interesting than simply packing more power into an already fast car and I hope Drive features more of this guys work in the future. --- if you don't like this, than you have no soul!
I am so in love with that camper. And, yes, I would go camping, have parties, drink coffee, drive to the RC flying club, go to car shows, drive to the beach, go surfing, and just, live, in that beautiful creation! :¬) ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
In-cred-i-ble! I am in awe of the artistic genius behind the whole idea of Blastolene. The Decoliner is one of the most beautiful vehicles I've ever seen.
This guy has the most down to earth personality and explanations of his work of anyone I have ever seen. He does not seem arrogant at all. A refreshing change from someone with some REAL talent vs what's commonly passed off as "reality" tv
Randy has a very healthy life philosophy which enables him to create those beauties. As he said, nothing to do with money exchange but taking the time to do things right and application of expertise. That's what we have to introduce in our daily routines nowadays. Congrats Randy, do what you love, the energy will follow.
That is an utterly awesome vehicle ! I hope Randy Grubb reads the comments (except the negative ones) and takes heart from them - We love his stuff, and want to see more ! Make more stuff, Randy. :)
One of the most important things I learned growing up was how to build things with attention to detail and craftsmanship. I'm glad some people still can appreciate how important building something with those 2 qualities being at the forefront of what they create. Thank you Drive and The Smoking Tire for making a video showcasing someone who knows and appreciates the craft of making something that someone put their heart and soul into creating!
@Rdtackle82 It has ridiculously legit swaybars, and shows very little body roll as long as corners are taken at normal speeds. I was blown away by how stable it is. The fact that the wheels have a 2 foot wider stance than the body helps too.
Man, you can tell Randy is just so happy with his life doing what he loves to do. What a great example of if you do what you love for a living you never work a day in your life....
that almost rare near-vintage 1972 GMC motorhome is a super special gem worthy of a good renovation to be used just as it is ... but this crazy Flash Gordon shapeshifter is also rather nice ... ;-)
I saw the Decoliner at Barrett-Jackson today. It's truly amazing! Randy's goal was achieved, people were crowded around it trying to see, and you could see it from a mile away. I wish I could have met and talked to him.
All I can say is WOW! Randy Grubb is the man, he's kit bashing model cars in full scale (I know, this is one off...)! What a creative genius, I want to see more!!!
I agree! Vehicles also known as Burners returning from Burning Man are toasted and never the same. Here in Reno we get to see all the crazy things (Artwork) from the event. When one sells a car here the first question is "Has it been to Burning Man?" If you wouldn't park it next to a sand blaster then you probably wouldnt want to take it to Burning Man
shockingly a piece of perfection, O.K. made in Oregon where do you think all the master craftsman are? I am an Artist and this is ART conquering all of one's senses and arresting our spirits! Thank you Master Craftsman Grubb. Tumbleweed in La Pine.
I just wish there were more people like him out there.
JasonGVlogs they are but they're just broke
I fucking love this guy.
AlexanderSuperTramp
yes this guy is
Randy is the real deal. I can watch him work all day long. A Renaissance man with rivets.
I feel like I am in a dream watching this video, what an amazing artist.
Amazing artist.
I couldn't stop smiling throughout the hole video... love this guy
Hahahahahaha
Hole video... teehee
think this is the wrong “tube” for that one... 😂
assassinxsteveo lol best comment I've seen in 2018
the enthusiasm and joy of a child mixed with the skill of an adult = wonderful
Right on,Remember your inner child

100 smiles per hour gotta love this guy
Randy, what makes this even better is that you are so humble!

I love the enthusiasm that Randy has for his work, so inspirational.
Your opening comments are spot on. This is how a true craftsman thinks.
I like how he see's each vehicle as a usable sculpture, as opposed to an item to get from a to b which happens to look good. He is extremely enthusiastic about his work with great attention to detail with both the drivability of each piece and the visual impact.
i could listen to this guy all day. he is so interesting and has such a warmth to him
No, you did NOT spend too much time building that sculpture. The colors, textures and materials are spot on. Simply beautiful and well worth every minute.
Fantastic imagination and skill put to work !!!

well said
I wouldn't know I have TH-cam red there are no commercials
I build race bikes. This art deco shit is stupid. Sorry if others don't agree with you, get over it. Maybe you should get out in the real world and do something instead of fawning over videos.
@@mikaelgaiason688 this thing is exactly as stupid / not stupid as building race bikes. To each their own.
another great American Re-inventor pushing all boundaries and succeeding!
Randy is such a character, he's brilliant and mad at the same time haha
This is one of the most amazing machines I have seen. The guy is amazing!
randy is one of those guys that can just kill a bad mood instantly.
this man is a legend
i love how enthusiastic and happy randy is! Hopefully i can get my own shop some day
"Smiles per hour." I love the concept. That's how driving should be viewed.
Spent 5000 hours on the bus.
I've spent well over double that on DotA.
That's depressing.

swedishguy83 Well that makes me feel better. Thanks dude
We do it because we enjoy doing it, not because we want the end result.
@@swedishguy83 yeah as long as ur happy doing it.
Thing is. Some people have something to show for it later to reflect upon
This guy needs his own tv show.
At the intersection of art and skill, whimsy and imagination came together in Oregon. What a treat! Thanx for the tour.
Wow. Just wow. That thing is hard to unsee.
Thumbs up to dads who spend time with their kids.
if this guy turns his efforts to evil, we are all doomed. he will be unstoppable.
The Positive Commenter Guy Can you imagine how cool and fancy looking transformer he would make?
i dont think my imagination is that good
I remember this guy, he featured as the guest on one of Jay Leno's garage episodes. He is so passionate and loves his trade. Such people are rare in this world now...
I love this guy. I would have a beer with this guy. Amazing talent. SMH
WILD! Gru from Despicable Me should drive it.
I saw this thing in person!!!!! I have a picture of me next to it. It was in s car show in Michigan
That is one beautiful piece of work. Reminds me of the old Flash Gordon series but much more fluid. atb Opal
I am totaly,totaly impressed with everything, from the patience,to the quality to the workmanship and creativity, we have last this in much of Americans, with the fast food and a fast buck,THUMBS UP.WOW.
I got to 11:30 before realizing I could see this in Fallout. Gosh I love this guy's project car. Not only it looks mindblowing but it actually has function.
That is the coolest thing ever!
how freaking cool is that?
omg, I think that is one of the most exciting cars ever made
How can you give that thing a thumbs down. Look at the craftsmanship. Beautiful piece of automoble art.
Did the producers of "Despicable Me" draw inspiration from this work of art and genius?
The world needs more Blastolene & less Trump.
I can't believe some thumbs down for this level of craftsmanship. They are jealous
cause they can't come close.
People should be more like him
The Acid must have been awesome back then.
Amazing vehicle/sculpture. But too much host, not enough vehicle in this video, like all of his videos.
One of the most stunning vehicles I have ever seen. It doesn't matter what angle you look at it, it's still a work of art! WoW!
@yuridaman This video is Randy's story. Not mine. The whole point of the video is to show Randy's passion, and we felt that we could let him do all the voiceover and tell his own story as a change of pace from what we usually do. I think it was successful.

FFS have you ever tried driving from the roof of anything.. I know I haven't

Song name 14:00 ?
this thing seems so properly done...wow, very impressive :D

If the police pull you over, how do you hand them your license?
You walk down duh
+PrincipalShark0 Sharky i wouldn't lol just look down on him 😂
+スマン日本のビジネ Haha! I would invite the cop up and let him drive for awhile...he may just forget about the ticket afterwards!
+David M Tell him to jump for it.
No, you hand your license TO them. They have already been "handed" enough.
I'm just surprised this is legal!
This is still America,just
what? smoke weed and drive? XD
SAXONWARLORD1000AD I'm not so certain about that.
yeah, without any seatbelts on the top, it would be a disaster if they just bumped into someone.
Es perfecto!
It's gorgeous. If only life were so much about living it up as this is.

THAT is one of the most incredible vehicles......EVER! One superlative is not enough...amazing, fantastic, gorgeous, etc. Art deco indeed!
Fantastic! Now, strap those pulse jets to the Decoliner!
Randy has a very healthy life philosophy which enables him to create those beauties. As he said, nothing to do with money exchange but taking the time to do things right and application of expertise. That's what we have to introduce in our daily routines nowadays. Congrats Randy, do what you love, the energy will follow.
For some reason this reminds me of some weird Beatles trip. Even the music too. Love this artiest.
That machine is awesome beyond words!
That is an utterly awesome vehicle !
I hope Randy Grubb reads the comments (except the negative ones) and takes heart from them - We love his stuff, and want to see more !
Make more stuff, Randy. :)

I love Randy, he's such a passionate and happy guy.
Absolutely Deco-dent! Masterfully done!
I wish I Randys dedication and perseverance.
Looks like the coolest 50s Toaster you would ever drive.. Damn That is Beautiful!!
Holy bejeezers. Every look, every angle, new detail. Something to look at with each look.
Just. Awesome.
It's great to know that randy grubb lives in my state of Oregon.
soooo beautifully said....
this man is an artist with the vision of seeing the past and saving it....thank you sir for giving us this art.....
It is good to see such talent and a man so happy at his work. What a beautiful creation.
@Rdtackle82 It has ridiculously legit swaybars, and shows very little body roll as long as corners are taken at normal speeds. I was blown away by how stable it is. The fact that the wheels have a 2 foot wider stance than the body helps too.

What great guys they must be to work with. I love the philosophy of quality over quantity.
I want to climb in Randy Grubb's brain for a while to see what's going on in there. This DecoLiner is AWESOME! :)
This by far the best of best in custom build. Randy is the Pablo Picasso to the Automotive world. Kept the great work.
Motor'n TV
A true Artist!
I saw the Decoliner at Barrett-Jackson today. It's truly amazing! Randy's goal was achieved, people were crowded around it trying to see, and you could see it from a mile away. I wish I could have met and talked to him.

Love this. Love his simple passion. Amazing.
Watching this video made my night. I love it. Very intriguing and looks like a blast to drive.
Great job on the Decoliner, Randy. It looks amazing.
Great episode! I love the Ingenuity & intensity of the build omg ... so cool, really fun project

amazing creation. and randy is so fun to watch talk about what he does. you can tell how much he loves what he does
How have I not seen this? This is so much more involved and entertaining than when Randy visited Jay Leno.
This guy would be the coolest nextdoor neighbor that I can imagine. No MAN could dislike this.
This guy is the perfect example of an artistic genius, and is exactly what our world is missing.
shockingly a piece of perfection, O.K. made in Oregon where do you think all the master craftsman are? I am an Artist and this is ART conquering all of one's senses and arresting our spirits! Thank you Master Craftsman Grubb. Tumbleweed in La Pine.
randy is baked as , shout to randy for all his hard work!
Just beautiful ,tasteful,classy
Crazy & Beautiful too! Well done !
