- Officially starting on the Rat Rod Build for the Rat Rod Magazine Build Off 2024. It all begins with stripping down what we don't need on the P30 frame and drivetrain. Lot's of good stuff to be had off this old RV but also a lot of junk, so we thought of a creative way to strip it down.

Man when i saw that rendering video it was an instantaneous subscription for me. I literally love that thing and will absolutely follow along the ENTIRE way!
If you know what you're doing is dangerous, it makes it less dangerous.
Ive been waiting for this! Those 709 sanden ac compressors that came on like everything in the 90s are cheap and easy to convert to air compressors. We'll be doing a video on it pretty soon on the Colorado Grown channel. You could repurpose that propane tank that was in there to an air tank so it doesnt go against your budget!
Yes they are! Can't wait to see the video.
Are you for real? Should of tried cutting the mounting bolts from the frame first. Just saying.
Haha not how TH-cam works!
I knew it wasn't coming off that way
Having torn a few RV's apart, I'm not surprised. You just have to rip and tear until its small enough bits to tear out.
Yep.i gotta go under inside the driver wheel well. Up over the frame to get to my master cylinder on my 35 ft winabago vectra RV...pain in the ,,,,.
I’m bidding on a 1989 Winnebago P-30 with the same LE8 motor tomorrow. 58k miles. You done scared me with the tear down 😳
Tear down is work if you don't have the right equipment but it does seem like it's going to make a good chassis
cant wait to see you build it
We scrapped a motor home just like this. Thought the sawzall was gonna be the tool of choice. Nope. Cut up the whole thing, even the frame, with a fine tooth carbide tip circular saw blade.
Hmm, I didn't think of that but I can see it working.
I learned about the build off from your channel … decided to try building something myself … see you in September
Awesome! What are you building?
Nice Video on destruction central, Conner is really making a hand doing this teardown! Motorhomes are looking like great donors if you can handle the job of Shredding one!! I like the name "Hardcore Hauler" but that may not be cool enough for this one.
That looks AWESOME!! Can't wait to see the build! I'm so curious as to where you are getting the parts or if you are going to fabricate a lot of parts.
Salvage yards and build a bunch from scratch!
@HardCoreFab Right on! I've been tempted to build a rat rod but I've never seen a full build. I look forward to your taking us along on the journey and explaining stuff along the way. What I've learned so far is start with as MUCH as you can get for as LITTLE as possible!! 😉 You did GREAT on that! All the best!!
Thanks! While you wait for the next one we have 3 other full rat rod builds here on the channel if you want even more info.
Well that was interesting. Glad you got it all cleaned off there tho.
Yes it was
I had a Fleetwood like that. Mine was a different model but looked the same. The healper airbags had a Schrader valve in each wheel well. I think they only took around 40 lbs of air
Hay anthony n Julie..how y'all doing...the project has begun...
Alright.... let's get it...👍😎💯
i like the short semi at time stamp 14 minutes plus the music at that time.
name suggestion monster low
That’s a lot faster than the way we just stripped a Winnebago last weekend! I need a set of those seat swivels, but I’m in CT, I thought they would be easy to find
That was the way to do it for sure!
Fail or success, memories with friends and family are priceless. Excellent!
Absolutely!
Hey Anthony,
That was sure a battle to clean off the chassis !
I would think the next step is to evaluate the engine and trans.
I see more clean up in getting that angle iron off of the frame though that might be useful as is for the bed of the hauler and support under the sleeper.
Looking forward to the continuing adventure of the build.
Take Care
You can use an old York style ac compressor, they move lots of air and aren't hard to find on old Ford vehicles, some semis and farm equipment. Air tanks are pretty cheap at truck stores. Lots of sizes.
Yep yep!
Project "Hellboy"...that thing is gonna be a beast! I'm excited to see where you take this...I'm rooting for you guys now. That cab removal was hilarious...great job and I'm glad no one got injured. Be safe, have fun and good luck to your team on the contest!
Thanks!
I’m really interested in how you set up your steering and brakes
Keep up the good work
Yeah That will definitely be the hardest part.
Definitely a good Start My. Hearse is 21/6 inches Can wait till next week
Hell Yeah brother, I'm really looking forward to seeing this build come to life. Even with the tight 5k budget, I believe you are going to come up with something really cool.👌🤘👍🇺🇸🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fingers crossed!
hey that propane tank would make an awsome air tank def following this build
Yes it would. Thanks for the following!
I've got the same camper same kind of project started from the factory that fuel tank is 85 gallon
Still crazy big!
@@HardCoreFab yeah it's a monster I bought a had a hernia or saying it not so nice blue or not trying to pick it out from underneath of mine holy crap I love watching your bills though I love hookers and blow I watched every episode faithfully on that one I love that truck I love all your builds but I love that one
Well long time no see. This was a boat load of fun to watch. Your wife said in the video she wasn't sure why she was there for this because it was a guy thing where we do stupid stuff. Well, she needed to be near by to call an ambulance lol. I would name it Sleeper since the chassis is from something that held a place to sleep.
How you been brother?
Nurse! Nurse! I need a Nurse!
@@lotharschiese8559 lol
The time it took to hook up the chains, that bobcat would've had it in a pile. Whole lot safer than yanking on log chain too. Looking forward to seeing this project through completion, just can't see it being done for 5k, at least not yet
Bobcat was the way to go for sure but we had to have some fun and try with the truck first. lol
Name it “The ReVenant” that’s ReV’n It. Because the dead RV is coming back to life baby!
Maybe call her Big Red? If that's going to be the final color on the rendering, I would go with that.
I think regardless of the color you pick, you could get away with calling it Goliath or Collosis maybe even dreadnought. It's gonna be a big rig it needs a BIG name. We'll that's my thought anyway.
I love your video sir. I really appreciate looking at this. Because you have been a great inspiration for me. I currently want to shorten one of these 30 Footers down to like a 22 ft if possible.
I appreciate the kind words. With most of the chassis being straight, it's pretty easy to shorten one. The hardest part is making that first cut. Good luck!
An excellent video! Nailed it with that music for the time lapse video pieces! I loved it. Gonna be a great build!
Glad you liked it!
Looking forward to the next video!!
RV are always a good start for rat rods.
My Dad'd motor home. You were conciveived in that vehicle.
The bobcat should have been option number 1 but it was definitely entertaining to watch the chain debacle
I didn't want you to get board watching it go to easy! lol
Yeah, there is a whole lot of substructure that goes into an RV. But at least that guy had fun ripping it apart.
Yeah I had no idea! I thought it would be like a pull type camper. I learned something I guess. LOL
This is going to be GREAT!!💰🏁🏁🏁🏁
Hay man , There's square tubing bolted in hidden places securing the camper body to the frame .
Yeah, now you tell me! LOL.
29:34 Mount an external rad, like in the front, on the nose, with electric fan! Navy Seals / Marines are trained to improvise.
The transmission in that should be stamped HD at the top of the bellhousing making it a" Turbo 475" which has I think two extra clutch packs and some other good stuff.
Hmmm I'm not familiar with that I'll have to check that out and see!
Fun watching you try to tear that camper in half. I wish I had that gas tank,mine is rusted through. I also did take out the radiator, and not the AC. I am changing the water pump, it is fun squirming between the AC radiator and the water pump.
I would make you a good deal on the tank if you wanted it! I don't envy you water pump job!
@@HardCoreFabThanks. I think the shipping would be to much for the tank. I live in N.Y.
Yeah probably cheaper to have one built locally than to ship this one
@@HardCoreFab true, guess I should go that route. Thanks for the offer. Good luck.
My family had a holiday in one of those 30 years ago
See next week gonna be awesome
Good luck with your rat house RV.
Enjoyed the demo and the tunes Anthony!
Call it the Winne Fifty Hauler...I am almost sorry this is limited to $5k because it could be real cool
Depending on how low you can get it sitting. You could call it the Draggen wagon.
I like that! But it may not be low enough
Another good one 👍👍
Thanks Shane!
Awesome Tear down
🤣 A "chain saw". Love it!
😆
Great work. God Bless.
Thanks, you too!
That was too funny to watch nice job
Glad we could make you laugh! LOL
You got a good buy on it.
GOLIATH would be a good name seeing how big it is.
Hope you saved the front end clip for cool wall art!!
I was going to but it's kinda junky
Amazing!😊
Reckon Highway Queen be a nice name
Love the suspense watching you cut off the fuel tank with cutting torch, should have done it in slow motion we could have taken bets as to whether you died or not!
LOL Just a regular day around here!
WOW YOUR PLANS ARE EPIC!!!
INSTANTLY EARNED MY SUBSCRIPTION JUST BECAUSE THIS IS JUST TOO COOL!!!
Thank you!
@@HardCoreFabI have an old motor home I plan to make into a pipe truck [not a rat rod, but an ugly old tool rig with a central boom, outriggers and a tool box] but I plan on lifting the whole upper off mine and setting it on blocks like a guest cabin, with the option of putting it on a smaller trailer and towing it to job sites.
Mine is on a Dodge M300 chassis, 1972 with a 413, but I'm actually hoping to remove the 413 and put a custom built 3500 horsepower turbine motor in it.
That would allow me to go all wheel drive on Dana 90's and go anywhere and haul anything and either put it up, or take it down.
Would you like some alloy wheels? I have a similar RV I towed home in a similar fashion and I got what I needed off of it.
That sounds interesting! Where are you located. Are they 10 bolt 19.5?
Southwind as an all steel structure.
I did the same thing and built a mini cabover on mine
NIce!
Pretty sure the s in Illinois is silent
How is that propane torch setup working for you? I'm considering one. Thanks
Works great for cutting! It's the cheapest way to cut. The only thing to keep in mind is if you are doing a bunch of heating the LP does burn a bit cooler.
Call it COUSIN EDDIE.
LOL
That must be a farm project lol
The Slammed Mammoth.
. Thanks to your video. I was able to do the shortening event that I was planning on. Definitely was a job. Lol. But thanks to you sir. I was confident enough to be able to engage without destroying everything. Lol. I have a crazy question if you have time to answer it. I really want to take one of these frames and make a flatbed truck. I'm just not sure what cabover design that I can use. Or what's available. Do you have any recommendations of what type of Chevy truck or a Ford truck or even a van
Really all the Cabovers are cool to me! My thought would be go for what your able to find!
@@HardCoreFab thank you Sir. I very much appreciate your time and consideration. Have a great day. I cant wait to see more of your finished products
I had a friend that worked at a mobile home manufacturer years ago. They took used ones in trade. If they were not worth saving they would strip the wiring out and put it in a loading dock with a huge dumpster outside and push everything off with a dozer. They cleanup and repaired the chassis then painted it. They actually had a new one leaving the plant get hit by a train. They sent out the entire work crew and all the equipment they could grab and had it all cleaned up, even raking gravel and putting the grass clumps back in place, before the news media showed up with their cameras. All the had were a few dents and scratches on the front of the train to record. They were not happy.
BTW Clean that cutting torch tip and learn how to set the flame better. That thing is cutting like crap. I see it all the time. Back in shop class 37 years ago I had to yell at the auto shop teacher. I had a year of metals and a year of welding and he was doing the same thing. He was struggling so much he told me and another guy to "finish it" for him. It took a while to actually find the tip files, but with those and a file I cleaned up the tip, set a natural flame and zipped the body mounts off a frame he was using for a rebuild. I spent less time doing that then he spent trying to just cut off one body mount. It was spitting and banging and going out and cut like crap.
Lol. 1 more thought...... the HardCore Hauler!!
LOL the 'Chain'saw didnt work bust out THE CLAW!
LOL right!
It’s always good to have friends with cool big boy toys!
Are those ten lugs, 7.25" bolt pattern, 19.5-inch wheels on it? I am looking for seven of them.
Yeah but that's what I'm going to run!
Sasquatch would be cool.
My guess is you did not unbolt the body mounts ..... second guess it would have came off if you had .... but i think once you quit pulling from back if you would have run chain threw rear window it would have pulled the side off maybe .... when i tore my toyota apart the floor was heavy duty with a lot of metal reinforcement pulling from back you were fighting that strength but if pulled from side it would have broke wall free easier from floor ... just a thought .... good luck with your. BUild
Yeah no we didn't pull any bolts. You are right I should have pulled from the side. Oh well next time....
Did a demo.like this as well. Not and easy task to remove an rv body from frame.
I need the doors off the camper
Well about that...
That chains gonna kill ya, ya probably shouldn't do that.
Ain't workin' get a bigger truck!
I'm in goofy mood, but if it's gonna be red, then "Clifford." If it's gonna be blue, "Babe."
1 st Clue
y'all know how to eat an Elefant , One bite at a time !
lol
Name HardCore Hauler
Waste of a perfectly good meth lab.😆
LMFAO
Wouldn't have it been easier to chain it to one of the trees
Name it the Chubby Chebby.
It probably took you longer to tear that damn thing apart than it took them to build it lol...
LOL maybe!
Im trying to find a fuel tank for this
Should have went with plan C4...(just say'n)
LOL that would have been so fun! But I do still need a straight chassis.
I mean, you could’ve use the front end, loader and gutter all done in about 10 minutes
It was about an hour but yeah
I would've saved all the windows out of it
So was LMAO and thinking that looks fun trying to rip it apart with the truck. Then Julie chimes in about it seeming like a guy thing and was thinking how right she was. Seriously though glad the weather finally made it possible. Was starting to think you where really going to be pressured for time. Nice to see some progress!
Still like Sleepy Hauler for a Name.
We have a ton of time! Sleepy Hauler isn't bad
I could see Brady doing a headless horsemen theme on it. Maybe after the 5k build off budget though.
Loved the show! Eh? Subeded!
Thanks!
If the wind shield s and windows weren't broke you could sold them for more than you have in it rv glass is expensive Fleetwood and pace arr rvs were better buit than most they dont come apart as easy a winnebago
I would have saved the windshields but they were broken. I agree very well built!
Bigfoot's tow rig.
lol
Red eye express
Just got to know why you still got your boom truck hooked to it instead of the motorhome to a tree
Mostly because I'm lazy. LOL
