The ute is finished! Merlin takes it on it's first road trip as a truck and meets up with some old buddies along the way. There is a surprise at the end of the video that you don't want to miss! Thank you all for watching and thank you for your continued support.
Congratulations, Merlin. I knew that they can't do an Olympics without you. Well done.
Congratulation to you , your wife, and daughter and your Jimmy. You made me lol at the last running with your ticket. Try to keep it real as you have. Your devotion, philanthropy, skill, attitude and sharing your knowledge is inspiring. Plus no balding products, no whiny Karen and no hocking merch. I thank you for that.
Congratulations 🎊 Merlin on the 100k and the Golden ticket. This could be the year of the wizard 🧙♂️
That scrambler is in incredible shape. Glad it went to someone who will appreciate it and take care of it.
That Honda 350 is my vintage. I’m 67 years old and I remember when bikes like that were all over. It should be is a museum or a serious collector’s place where it will always stay it that condition. Congratulations on 100k subscribers! 👏👏👏
@@rickbottoms7838 I would park it in my living room!
@@rickbottoms7838I’ll be 70 in a couple of weeks and I had a 1971 350CL. There were a few other guys in the squadron I was in that had them and we would ride around Maine on the weekends.
This episode is filled with Old School Garage awesomeness. The Ute, the Scrambler, jet skis, a Silver Play Button, Congrats on all this goodness.
Congratulations, Y'all!! Most underrated 'Automotive/Mechanical/Cool Sh*t' channel on YT, period! GREATLY appreciated!!
I already knew that was going to happen Merlin is the man.
Cool truck! Sunday is my favorite day because I get to watch you, Matt, Paul and Robbie. I'm hooked.
Congrats, on the 100k and the vw looks better than factory built. I must say that you and Paul have the 2 best TH-cam channels out there. I am 76 years young and always learn from both
Thank you so much.
Congratulations Merlin and to your wife, daughter and Jimmy!
I like Jimmy (I’m paid to say that)
Congrats all around. What a celebratory vid! VW truck maiden haul, CL350 ride, 100k subscribers and a GOLDEN TICKET!!! Well done.
Congratulations on your silver play button Merlin. God bless
Congrats on the Silver 100K Award and your Golden Ticket to the Tow Truck Olympics
Good job Merlin as far as I think you're channel is one of the best most authentic channels on TH-cam alot of TH-camrs talk about keeping it real and you prove it through your actions. Go win the tow truck Olympics Merlin.
Congratulations Merlin were with ya buddy. Keep it going please
Love the little pickup totally cool. Congratulations Merlin you got the GOLDEN TICOET ! But really awesome you broke 100,000 subscribers & got your TH-cam award. Now let's go for the GOLD TH-cam AWARD
Nice looking honda!!! Vern did a lot of good work on that! Hope to see it driving soon!
Merlin Sir! So deserving Of 100K! and I like the ending! "Run Merlin, Run" YES! To 500K ! And beyond! To me ,you're part of a special group of down to earth goodness of people I wish we all could be! And yes On The Golden Ticket! Man is it going to be FUN!
Congrats on the Silver youtube award and on the golden ticket to Matt's off road wrecker games. I can''t wait to see that
Congrats Merlin, Well deserved hope your channel continues to grow. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and awesome projects!
I love how confident you were in that bike. Before you even started it, asking the dog if he wanted a ride!
Awesome, You hit the 100,000 congrats Merlin you earned it. I am think that little jetta pick up kit is pretty bad ass. Excellent you got the ticket. This is going to be awesome.
Congrats on the golden ticket and the 100k subscribers can’t wait to see more projects
thanks so much for taking the time to share some of your time with us
This is a video full of milestones: the jetta ute is done, you reached 100,000 subscribers, and you got your golden ticket, congratulations Merlin, thanks for bringing us along👍
Congrats on the 100K award!
The Ute is AMAZING! You can haul things around and get over 50MPG while doing it in style!
I remember those Scramblers. What a needle in a haystack to find one in pristine original condition like that! WOW!
Your channel is amazing! I love it!
The Ute looks awesome Merlin, great job brother! That Honda also looks awesome! Congratulations Merlin on your Utube award and your Golden Ticket brother! Thanks for sharing, Kirk from Louisiana! 👋🏼👏🏻👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very cool to reach the 100k. Happy to have been along for the ride. The Ute looks really good & 52 mpg is nothing to laugh at. Thanks for sharing
Hi Merlon! Great meeting you this Wednesday. I was so impressed seeing this truck in person, and watching the build was even more so - I had no idea this kit existed and that you did it ALONE!! Well done, awesome little truck! 👍
Sad to see someone like Vern have to assign a project to someone else to finish, must be heartbreaking for him.
However, there’s no better person to pass the baton to, than Merlin.
Love that bike, it’s so clean … I rode thousands of miles on a 1970 triumph T25 Trophy - much the same era…
Get well soon Vern, God be with you. 🙏🏻
Thank you Merlin… great little pick-up you got there and congrats on the 100k subs. The only way is up🤣

Congratulations to the entire Merlin’s Old School Garage crew on your milestone of 100K subscribers. I really enjoy watching all of your projects.
The Jett-uhh turned out great, and that Scrambler is amazing. I can't believe that is original paint.
And congratulations on hitting 100k!
Merlin I'd only watched about half of the video when I made the comments. I had no idea you hit that big milestone. Congratulations it's way bigger and way harder than people understand! I just told fab rats congratulations a few days ago. They hit 500 K. Wow what a deal. It's because the channels are good there's no other reason. Keep up the crazy good content. I also learned every time I watch. Thank you so much Merlin. Hang in there buddy.
Double congratulations, on the viewer count and the golden ticket. You offer good tips, that's why we watch.
So glad to find your channel through Paul's channel...love your knowledge and great content...✌️brother
Wow Merlin! That was fast! Not sure when you filmed this but when posted you had well surpassed the magic 100k. Thanks for sharing. Keep doing what you do and keep growing.
Stay safe healthy and happy 👍
Watch out for your cousin Paul at the Wreaker games he’s likely to take it seriously.🤣😂
Congratulations Merlin! Thanks for sharing your work with us.
That Ute isn't Cute. It's BADASS!
Congratulations on your 100k award! Keep up the great content always learn something new.
I had a 350 Honda twin in an off-road frame many years ago, surprising just how well they go when properly set up, this brought back a flood of memories. And now you know why we Aussies have a love affair with our utes. Thanks Merlin.
WOW ! ! ! Silver TH-cam plaque and a Golden Ticket all in one episode. Heavy Metal man !
Congratulations on your TH-cam Award Merlin you have a great channel.
Congrats Merlin. Well Done on the VW small truck and that motorcycle looks very nice too! Ah, and the 100K Subscribers is the cherry on top of the cake! Well done your channel is fun and entertaining without the drama. Ah, and the Golden Ticket is a well deserved invitation to a cool event coming up next month . Your truck will do great job as usual. Good Luck.
That 350 Scrambler was my first bike. Had a lot of fun on it. First use of the UTE. Cool. Congrats on the TH-cam milestone. Keep growing the channel with all the great content.
This build is really impressive! Might have to build one if I can find a decent donor
Morning Merlin!!
Well this video just goes to show WHY you have over 100K subs!!!
Always the magical projects!
(and WHY WOULDN'T they be with MERLIN at the helm?)
Absolutely LOVE the little UTE!!
and the HONDA is a time capsule!!
Safe travels friends ❤️❤️
Stay FROSTY...
Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel...

Congrats,Merlin,seems like it wasn't to long ago when you started utube.glad to see how much you've grown.Good Bless you and your Family
Congratulations.....on BOTH accomplishments! My guess is your neighbors are polling everyone they know, in the hopes that when you get big enough, maybe you will move to bigger digs............. (and they will be able to live in peace and quiet, once again)
Congratulations on your ‘tube award ! And your invite to the wrecker games !
Way to go Merlin, you and jetski Jimmy are a couple of originals keep it up
100k award AND a golden ticket? I am seriously rooting for the Underdog..and BSF. As usual, you will make them question their life decisions LOL. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
I truly appreciate the Charlie impersonation there at the end. I don’t think I’d call it “cinematic gold” but it was pretty close 🤣
We tried to coach them! But you know movie stars….
Great job Merlin. Love your show 👍
Merlin is definitly a wizard. The things he knows how to do. I would love for him to help with my 1965 Ford Ranchero. It's only been sitting in my garage for 20 years nothing done.
Congratulations on your youtube silver certificate.🙂 Keep up the good work,I love your channel.
I love that hellcat on Mark Smyth's website. This truck you made is so cool. Thanks for sharing
I was hoping you'd get included in the wrecker Games! Truth be told, I did vote and encourage other to vote for you. Have fun at the Games 😎
That turned out great!!!Dont know why the car companys dont make any of these-they sell like crazy in Australia and they would do well here ,too !!!
Merlin has fit right in with Paul, Matt, Robbie, and Rory, Chad , and the rest of the crews involved in all of these projects and recoveries.. Even though there is a pretty good distance between them all, they all have each others back. Now I think they can include HeavyDSparks in that group as well. All outstanding people. It all started for me when I got Gold Fever with the Golden Nugget project for Ed.
Thanks so much for the great content and also all of the tips and tricks you guys show.Congrats on the award from You Tube, and especially the Golden Ticket. I can't wait to watch all episodes from everyone.
Check mattsoffroadadventures.com for all info
I got started looking for off road trailer builds and found some knucklehead (Matt) dragging a car trailer through the sand!
@@brettmoritz3698 Matt does get into enough trouble on his own but you ought to check out Rory Irish pulling his two axle tube frame trailer up and down trails with a Jeep or some other catastrophe on the back, with his dually beast wrecker. Matt says he's the guy that focuses on renters in the sand (and he's good at it!) while Rory drags people out of cracks in the rocks that sane people won't even "walk" up!! A big part of the time I spend watching these guys, I'm asking myself "What the hell possessed them to think going out there was a good idea, anyway!!??" Just remember, if you get 10 miles out past your bad decision, either of these guys can and probably will save your dopey butt and get you back to civilization!! 😂🤣👍
I believe Merlin and Paul Cox are cousins.
@@JT_70 ya think maybe? They’ve actually proclaimed it in their videos…
Awesome UTE, and remarkable mileage, what a cool build. Wish I still had my '79 diesel Rabbit. Congratulations on the silver creator award. And really looking forward to seeing you win the wrecker games. 👍 love seeing you create, I'm a diesel guy too.
Congrats on 100k Merlin! you earned it, keep the great content coming! The JUTE looks amazing, makes me want to build one...
Absolutely brilliant Merlin fantastic . that Ute is gorgeous.the bike stunning. Fantastic you got the award from utube👍👍👍👍👍
Congratulations 🎉 Marlin 🥳🥳 keep those videos coming love watching them

Run home Merlin run home!! 🤣🤣
Congratulations! Absolutely love the Ute, wish I could have one 🏁
Congratulations on receiving a golden ticket. 😊
That bike is an amazing find.
Congrats on your TH-cam silver play button, the golden ticket and your new old Honda!
Wow, what a great episode! Congrats on the VW truck conversion, 100K TH-cam subscribers milestone and the Golden ticket - Well done! Can't wait to see and meet you at the Off Road Wrecker Olympics.
Congratulations Merlin on several things, the Golden Ticket, the beautiful Jetta pickup, the TH-cam Silver Award which you really deserve, and being able to help out your friend with his 1968 CT350. I tuned those bikes at the local Honda dealer the first year they came out in 1968. They had their problems the first year, clutches were weak, and some even came in new with a motor knock. Honda quickly took care of the situation, and we sold hundreds of them. Vern's is beautiful. I wish him well.
I had one in 77. It was a 74, think it was a CL350. My friend had a CB350. The pipes were lower.
I knew you would get the Golden Ticket. That Jetta is amazing! Now everyone wants one.
Congratulations Merlin on the 100,000 mark and the golden ticket! You deserve it
This is the caddy they should have made. The rabbit trucks were so popular i don't know why they didn't make anything like them again.
That little victory run at the end was funny !! LOL I think we need to see a foot race between Merlin and Ben, of course with a rest stop or 3 at 50 foot intervals!! haha
Congratulations Merlin. Your integrity really is a huge appeal. All wisdom, no ego.
Hard to believe that little Honda is all original paint and chrome. What a beautiful thing!
You will find that you will get 2-4 mpg if you install and use a tonnent cover. Get one with metal cross strap to support cover from flapping over box "hole". Had vercro side attachments and tie flaps when use roll cover up.
Congratulations on breaking 100,000 subscribers. Love your new pick up. Great old motorcycle. Sure glad you got the golden ticket. I was afraid I’d have to go over to Matt’s do TH-cam and give them hell.
😂
👍👍
I Had a Scrambler exactly like that as a 17 year old kid. Went to the Triumph dealer and traded it for a New 1972 Trident . Took off. from the dealer and almost killed my self.First hard stop sign I came to I flue right through DAM EVERY THING WAS BACKWARDS WITH THE PEDELS.
Congratulations Merlin, Maybe you could start a 'Ute business?!!! 'Id buy one for sure!!
Haha congrats on getting the golden ticket to offroad Wrecker Games !
Congratulations on your mile stone. Awesome videos. The truck turned out awesome, looks factory.
that was awesome Merlin congratulations my friend!! awesome work!! awesome thinking outside the box.. not many in the world that do, my respects to you!!.
Congratulations on the TH-cam award and obviously nice ute! Would be cool if we could do this over here
Congratulations and thank you for putting content worth watching on the channel. Way to tease. A trip down the Missouri river sounds stupid cool. Like Battle Star Galactica with jet skis for vipers searching and defending as the rag-tag fleet makes its way toward a shining star called...
Nice projects ! And a Silver Award ! Thanks for sharing !
Congratulations, Merlin, family and Jet Ski Jimmy. Another awesome video and build.
* "You meet the nicest people on a Honda" * Congrats on the TH-cam award. Keep making cool content. My mom bought us a brand new Honda 50 in 1967. I rode it for many years, but then moved on to other toys. Mom gave it away around 2000, when she moved into a retirement village. Our neighbor had a 305 Scrambler (1966 I think). Fun old bikes.
I've been waiting for this video all week! Great work and such a cool project!
Congrats, Merlin! On UTUBE and GOLDEN TICKET!!!
Congratulations on a great channel and 100,000 subscribers. The ute turned out beautifully.
Congratulations, Merlin.
Congratulations Merlin you deserve it, thanks for the videos!
Merlin and family and friends, congrats on the 100K, enjoyed the outro especially since Merlin is more of a serious guy.
Well deserved Merlin! You put out some awesome content, all you have to do is turn the camera and be Merlin!
Got my ticket and airbnb, Now all I need is an Old School Garage T-Shirt !
Congratulations on 100,000 Merlin and family!! That truck is awesome great job! Also beautiful motorcycle!
Merlin truly is a wizard.
We love you Merlin
Congratulations
I am so happy about your award from TH-cam, you deserve it Merlin cause I enjoy your builds and projects , all the way from The Okanagan Valley in British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦!!
