I wonder if Hunter understands the education and experience he’s getting hanging around with this bunch? Absolutely priceless. You’re a lucky young man Hunter.
Well said, I had an employer who helped me in my life , He is still alive and I visit him even after all these years (50 years)...
OJT/On the Job Training. Yes, a very lucky man.
All those kids are lucky. Learning how to fix your cars is so valuable, i have saved at least 100k over the years because I have never had to take a vehicle to a shop.
I have started saving videos like these to watch with my boys. They're still little, but you should see how engrossed they get! Hopefully some of the Fab Rats ingenuity and tenacity will rub off on them.
Consider his family is kissing cousins. I doubt it.
As a Colorado boy, I'm stoked how much you love our state! Trying to save up as a young buck to get a recovery business going myself you are an inspiration!
I love Colorado - it is a gorgeous state with some of the best scenery bar none. I'd live there - but - it is a place that is very hard on complexions as the Altitude and Dryness take a toll and you age rather harshly. At 74 years old now - I don't think I'd acclimate very well now, as I did when I was 35...
h0wdy frm gj!!
✌
Both Colorado and Utah are wonderful. There are problematic cities in both states, but the variety and beauty of each state make each worth visiting and spending some time.
heyhey from SLV
This video and the last one were both a McFlurry of activity x10² ! Never a dull moment when the Fab Rats have several projects to prep for and start that involve rescuing, acquiring and/or repurposing things with internal combustion engines and their pieces parts. This is one of the BEST if not the TOP automotive-related channel on TH-cam. Do it to it Fab Rats team and enjoy the projects and the ride...and we will too. ;)
Although he’s not, Hunter is like the son everyone needs. What a great kid.
This is going to be a crazy build just like we like it.Thanks Paul and the whole crew for a little longer video.Landon has really stepped up and has become a great asset.
I believe that a cracked windshield is a requisite to live and drive in that area. Think I've seen more cracked windshield than not on Fab Rats. Lolololol.
@@greghardy7239 I was thinking the same thing
Lmao. You have very high expectations for someone who has very limited skills.
First of all Fab Rats is my favorite You Tube channel. It reminds me of working with my dad, lots of laughing, wrenching, and found memories. Thanks a ton for all your hard work, this bus is going to be AWESOME !
I remember working with my dad… whole lot more cursing but valuable time for sure.
You got LOTS of projects!!! That old bus is going to make a super cool off road buddy bus! Can't wait to see it coming together!!
I bet Landon is pretty adept at mechanics. He has had a good teacher. He moves confidently around the motor just knowing what to do next!
I loved the way they built John Forces short bus now we'll get to see how you build yours. I'm glad you are keeping the patina on this bus.
That would look awesome to do that bus like that rat rod/ street custom bus with 12 valve
The amount of projects Paul has is never ending lol
Whatever happened to the motorbike that was sent for upgrades, never seen the outcome of that one???
@@Bo88y22 Paul's friend is still working on it look up Fab Rats dirt bike or the channel is called Dirt Bike Fab. Hope you have a good Memorial weekend.
It actually stresses me out and it's not even my shop lol lol.
Just like my house projects are endless
That’s the point of the TH-cam channel, without projects no channel, no channel no income.
When I was in high school a buddy had a bus the same color and size late 50s early 60s that thing was so much fun. Most of the seats had to be pulled out or get a special license. The top front already had Heart Throb painted on it my friend thought it was cool to paint the whole back with the Playboy bunny head. It definitely was a party bus we’d load up our motorcycles in it and occasionally used as a bedroom… Our high school asked him not to drive it to school because people were sneaking into to party during school. Nobody was very good at double clutching down shifting so you didn’t want to be behind us on the freeway that old bus supplied miles of fun.
i cant wait to see that bus built ! it would make a killer off road rv /camper
A ton of work goes into these long videos but what a great Sunday morning. Coffee & Fab Rats, thanks for bringing us along!
This is gonna be a sick build! If you're looking for seats for this thing, check out some bus conversion groups, people are always trying to get rid of their seats when they convert them into RVs
Kudos to Michelle and her editing team for adding some story-telling-mood music. Good choices.
Michelle’s the Best!
I'll bet that bus was like hauling a parachute. A windshield or even a tarp over the front woulda helped, but it sure woulda spoiled the view. As a former trucker, it sometimes makes you proud to look at what you're hauling. This would be one of those times. Man you got a lot done this episode.
Of course Grandma would clean the floor for Ben.
Hes her favorite.😂
It's good having the "ol' Wizard" as a cousin. 😄Knowing all that diesel and just mechanic stuff from decades of doing it is a real asset to be in the family.
When in doubt call Merlin
How cool to see Glenwood Canyon! I went to school in Glenwood Springs a little over 20 years ago...yikes! I'm getting old. Not too far away from where they were taking the video in the canyon, there's a hot spring in the Co River. Not sure how someone found it but they did and built cool rock walls to keep in the hot water. I vividly remember sitting in the spring with the Co River rushing by while it was snowing. Such an amazing experience. Thanks for the memory flast back Fab Rats!
I’d love to see the Willis wagon you have back in the storage lot looks sweet! Mabey make it into the busses mini me.
It should be a LAW that if you have to sell your toys for kids , The kids should have too replace them toys later in life LOL 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Hahaha right!? 🤣 That'd be nice if it worked that way!
100% agree.
Kids crying now, they didn't ask to be born🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
My dad sold his motorhome to have me. That paid the $500 hospital delivery bill. So I did what any good person would do. I bought a motorhome and have been enjoying it ever since. Love you dad.
@Duramax Dad 500 quid to delivery a baby feck that in the UK they just pop out everywhere for free u could take a choice 😂😂😂🤣
I’m amazed with all the old stuff Paul finds and puts back together he hasn’t fabbed together a generator. If it happens I want credit for being the one to spark that episode 😅
You are a bit late to the party, I mentioned it a while back, it'll have to be a hyphenated "Hustling-ambadass" type credit in the video credits 😂
@@hustlinghard8081 I can live with assist lol
You're hardly first in line. As often as the power goes out I can't believe Paul doesn't have a generator.
The best thing I ever did for my house was to get a whole house/shop GENERAC Generator. It automatically turns on when the main power goes out and automatically turns back on when the main power is restored. I have mine for ten years now and it is awesome! You can get different sizes that will fit your output needs. Runs on natural gas and propane. No more power outage worries!
I love Sunday morning coffee with the Utah guy's. Heavy D , Matt's off road recovery, Fab Rats and Robbie Layton! Great way to start a day!
Nice long video, Michelle. For all of us who can't get enough of Fab Rats you sneek in a long one! All the builds that Fab Rats got going on will be fun to watch and keep us glued to your channel, that includes your jeepster in the mix! The school bus is going to be a saga to see for sure! Til next time, take care, and we'll see you on the next...
“Fab Rats” 💛has the best adventures !!! Can’t wait to see Paul’s vision of the “Fun Bus”💛
Great to see the boys really getting into it, huge experience lift for them. Thanks guys.
Should a gave him a shirt for that deal,great advertising,Honda three Wheeler was so bad ass machine in the days of old. Can't wait to see it built,turbo perhaps! Here we go again.
Michelle, your editing is still on point. Great job!
the original spacer from dodge is alum. mine broke into several pieces. ordered a new one and got tired of waiting measured how thick the spacer is and went to local hardware and found 3 nuts the right thickness and starter works great and has for years. never replaced with the factory piece.
These split episodes we need more Hunter and Paul and Ben and Shaun just wonderful wholesome content also so great that they videoed the trailer breaking back in the day and Paul’s old 3 wheeler that’s just awesome shout out Michelle finding that content bet it was a job in itself. Also editing so good with the inside jokes!
Oh how I do enjoy these long videos, I know they are a tone of work, but it's much appreciated. I know Hunter is gaining so much from being in this crew and all the boys too. I wish I could get in there and learn, never had autoshop in school and Pops was away far too much to learn from him. I'm guessing the fishing trip was not full of catching fish, since no footage. Great video!
On my way to Wisconsin and currently in Utah going toward Colorado. I'll be driving the same route into Colorado today that you guys drove. That part of Utah is the most beautiful part of this country that I've seen. Even better during sunrise. Looking forward to seeing your vision for the bus come to life. I have no doubt it'll be awesome.
The amount of vehicles it takes to make a Fab Rats quality build is Impressive.
This is what happens when you have your own bone yard.
I just love your attitude towards life. You are right, it's just stuff and there's always more to get.
That old footage of you on the 3 wheeler…. explains a LOT. You are a madman! 😆
47mins on a Sunday morning! Doesn't get much better than that.
I love it. I had to get a third cup of coffee lol.
You guys never fail to crack me up...the chemistry between Paul and Hunter is just hysterical! And for the record, I am not too sure I want to see what's in Paul's brain...D'oh!
Are you on the spectrum?
@@thetrutha2177 Are you? That was such a pointless and rude comment.
@Kenneth Schoen no worries...he is obviously well into the asswipe spectrum.
All these upcoming projects in the Fab Rats hopper is just excellent 👌
You make all of the rest of us ADHD guys proud, whether it's a tow truck or barbeque, we've left them on! It takes a real man to find the value, charged battery or cleaned grill!!!thanks from all of us!
That drive thru Glenwood Canyon sure brought back,the memories! Imagine this, my 95 lb. step daughter was a raft guide on the river there while she was in college!
We used to ski Vail Pass, which you avoided by going through the tunnel. Up on the pass you can see fifty 12,000+ foot mountains.
Always had a love for the old school bus. Should be a fun build. And the old cab and Cummins roll off truck sounds like it’s going to be a cool ride. Can’t wait to see them both take shape. 👍
Mat has the perfect axles sitting in his yard looking forward to the build
I could have gone the rest of my life without knowing "It's me again, Margaret!". Naturally, I had to look it up and I can't un-hear it!
Can't wait to see the build on the old bus. That's gonna be awesome!! Love all the projects!! I just can't wait to see FABRATS videos every week.
Man, that is awesome. You are living the life you deserve, Paul.
Looking forward to content on this build. Always fun to watch the gang wrench away. Love the fact it's real world. Mistakes happen all the time. Just keep moving forward. Inspirational.
Good stuff guys. Great edit Michelle.
Your videos are great to watch because how you interact with the camera makes us feel like we are there with you. Always entertaining and love the longer videos. Can't wait for both builds to see how they turn out. 👍👍🤟
I'm excited for this one!!! Then have a pull off with Matt so he can break some more axles lol
Great video fellows, love the music can't wait to see the new projects when finished. My # 1 channel on TH-cam.
One word: EPIC!. This channel love the content love when you do recoveries too you show the most outward respect to all. Fab rats rocks!
That build is gonna be a killer !!!!
That bus is going to be some awesome truck 🔥 the rollback has made a whole lot of progress also. Keep the excellent content coming and the awesome videos 👍✌️🇺🇲
Paul and the boys are going to be doing bus stuff soon. Love watching the projects
They should hang with Demo Matt. Even though he already got rid of his bus.
I thought of you guys last month as my wife and i Flew from Washington State to Arizona to pick up my boy at Grand Canyon University for the summer. We did a great road trip for 2 weeks with his car. Phoenix to Grand Canyon, back to Albuquerque to see family for A-day. Saw dinosaur footprints, dinosaur monument Moab, drove through Utah,Colorado and home. 2800 miles exclamation beautiful try. Memories
Good made some beautiful country
Can't wait to see the green goblin bus be resurected!!! How are those Hercules power tools working out for y'all?
It’s awesome to see you share with Hunter the old school way of doing things, no motel, no pool, no sleep, just get it get it get it, you’ll make an old school gangsta out of him yet 😂
Gangsta. Only kidding 😊
@@Texastigerdigsdetects 😂😂😂I fixed it lol
I dont normally have time to drop a comment, but! Bloody good video guys, loads going on, but most of all, everyone happy and enjoying the ride. Well thats how it came across. Some kick ass projects going down. Looking forward to them 👌👍
These builds are looking like a lot of fun! Looking forward to following.
Man so many awesome projects at the fab rats shop right now! But, I feel like this project should take priority. Can't wait to see this thing get built out !!
The smile on Paul’s face when he got his 3 wheeler was priceless. Great video, can’t wait to see what you guys do to that bus.
Finally a Cummins swap !!!
Exciting projects coming!
Looking forward to see them come together.
Not good to laugh at people’s misfortune is bad mojo but following these guys as long as I have and knowing the transmission fail mountain Paul lives under LOL ….. the why didn’t you drive it and then the movie clip editing was spot on crazy funny LOVE IT GUYS
I was anticipating some mice jumping out at Hunter when he was poking around in the bus and we'd have another jet boat moment.
I just enjoy watching the stuff y’all do and I get to see country I haven’t been to in years awesome work fab rats crew 👍
Heheheh . . . "It's ME again Margret."
I haven't thought about that song in 30 plus years!!! Thanks for the quick drive down memory lane. :)
This build is completely nuts and I'm here for it.
Hey Paul. You know Matt has those MRAP Cougar Military axles that Tom Tom bought. I think it would be awesome under that bus with rock crawler tires that will make Matt's wrecker tires look tiny. Just a thought.
Yeah, Matts' always talking about how smooth the ride is with the big wheels. I was expecting to see some sort of train with those axles, but seems good for this project too.
The green bus is going to be fun to see develop, looking forward to the build
Great episode!! I so miss the sound of a ripping 2-stroker. I can almost smell the Bel-ray oil smoke from the 80's. Peace 🤠
Or mix in some Castor Oil !!!
Love those spoked wheel hubs on the bus. Would be cool if they could be used…
Paul, don't feel too bad about leaving the tow back running, I had a 2011 ram w/Cummins with remote key fob. I apparently hit the remote start while in the house, the truck idled all night long, it super warmed up my garage! Fortunately it was winter, so some things balance out!
DUDE! Yes! This has been my DREAM since I was a kid! The ultimate off road bus for camping with a nice bed, fireplace, etc.
No matter how many times I see the off road wrecker, I still love those doors
WOO HOO! Looking forward to see the Bus build!!
Admirable passion, can't wait to see the end results , all the best 🙏🙏🙏
Great work guys looking good. God bless you all.
Morning Fab RATS Family!!!
Loved the longer video for a Sunday morning starter!!
Good thing Lolly still cleans up after you boys!!!
The Beastie-Bus is going to be amazing!
The Honda is going to make lots of memories!
The offroad rollback is going to be off road before we know it!
Michelle's jeepster is moving up on the project list!
Grass is green, trees are leafed and
🎣 fishin' time is here!!
....more busy days ahead around the Fab RATS estate!!
Safe travels, friends ❤️❤️
Stay FROSTY...
Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel...

HEY! Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to Fab Rats. 👍 Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Let us remember those that have lost their lives so that we have our freedom! 🎖🎖
YES, you said it!!! Thanks to all Vets.
@@JanelleVocate-Ames Absolutely! Thank you to all Veterans! And Good morning to you Janelle!
I am amazed at the depth of knowledge these guys have.
34:06 Paul cut down an entire apple tree with that electric chain saw --- and he CANNOT TELL A LIE about it! :P :D
can't wait to see the bus running
So much fun! "I wish you guys could see what I've got in my brain...rain...rain..." "This is for me and my buddies to go do dumb stuff." I had to pause the video on that one so I could compose myself enough to watch the rest.
I'd just like to say, this whole video put such a big smile on my face! Everything from the bus to the little clips thrown in there. Huge fan guys!
I seen this exact bus posted on Facebook, even browsed the pics. Then days later I see it on a trailer headed east on I90. Its so bad ass to know Paul got it!
Gorgeous truck! Just a great job to everyone involved. The hub caps are perfect
This is going to be an ultra cool build. Looking forward to seeing what they have in mind for this.
I like seeing Paul and Michelle’s children in the videos. This was a very good video. I’m going to watch it again. ❤️👍👍👍👍❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hunter: if you think those are rugged mountains, drive over to Ouray and look and the San Juans. They make the rest of our ranges look pretty tame.
Would’ve loved to see you guys (and that bus) in Denver- going to be such a cool build!
Three wheelers are where it’s at. Grew up on an 85 Honda Big Red.
I like this new project of the old bus build it's going to be awesome to see it working at the off- road Olympic's! The off road wrecker is taking shape and powered by a diesel Cummins Merlin will be so proud once he gets over his disgust of Paul's lack of knowledge about a Cummins! 😊 good to see the FJ up and running and pulling Paul's boat to the lake! 😊
It sure would be nice to see you guys work on some of the cool projects that you have only teased us with. Lifted off road bus is going to be a sweet mountain rig Thanks for the uploads.
Great road trip. Love that bus and anxious to see that one happen. Super cool guys!
It's always good to see your sons involved. So, did Ben and Sean catch anything when they went fishing???
It's good to see professionals working together.
That bus is uniquely awesome. Love the color & hope you can preserve at least some of it. Maybe fix the rust and top coat it.🌺
This bus is gna be SWEET! Without a doubt...Much Love To The Fab Rat's!
"NO YELLING ON THE BUS!!"
Brilliant.
And a '37 IH bus is just about perfect! I love it 😍
As always a great show. Your editing is off the charts!
