I never thought this would work. The question is did Jimmy get his money back with all the merch and videos.

I watched this from the start thinking, ya right, there’s no way, it will never get finished. I was 1000% wrong. The finished product is absolutely incredible and I’m completely blown away! Congratulations Jimmy. Much respect. This thing will live on forever !

I’m completely blown away, I thought it was going to look horrible, it looks awesome. Great job Grisly and Jimmy.

I was among those that thought you blew a quarter of a million dollars on a jet that had been sitting for 41 years and here you are at the conclusion of a dream project about to make it's debut at Oshkosh. Congratulations on proving me wrong and reaching success.

Goes to show ,, a person with a vision and the love of making it happen CANNOT be stopped !!! Awesome 👍

This project has been amazing to follow! No one else would’ve brought it back to life like you did 🥳

Don’t forget to thank Silas. He is great young man, doing an important job; and I’m sure many more that we know about. At the same time he is learning life and skills from his father, which cannot be measured in any other way than in units of love.

My wife and I just saw you going northbound on 75 by Ocala with the jet that was so cool

I once lived on McGee Rd in Plant City… I’m now in Buffalo, NY. How cool to see my old street/ stomping grounds… THANK YOU, JIMMY!!!

Dude, Elvis last performance was in Indy. You gotta come to Indy on your way to OshKosh. I'll buy you an ice cream.

Jimmy, when you said you were going to make the Elvis Jet into a vehicle to tour the country, I thought "Jimmy has finally lost his mind". Well, your vision, and a lot of hard work from many people have made the dream a reality. It looks awesome. Congrats to all who made it happen!!!

Having followed Elvis Presley's career and life for over 50 years, I can tell you that I have NEVER SEEN A SINGLE PICTURE OF ELVIS IN OR NEXT TO THESE PLANES!! Since this plane was parked in a parking lot in a desert, it has been made A REAL HOAX.

I passed you today near Chattanooga. I knew exactly who it was when I saw it! Super cool

Jimmy the "Elvis Jet" is an outstanding, monumentally awesome, fine job!!! Way to go. JJ

I've been following you since way before you bought the Jet, Never in a million years did I ever think you would accomplish what you did. The two of you need to be congradulated for your vision, hard work and th ability to stick with it, even when all seemed lost. Words cannot express my admiration for the two of you. HAVE FUN and ELVIS is getting ready to leave the building.

I actually like that it has a wrap. It looks great, was cheaper, and the original paint is preserved underneath it - best of all worlds!

the mad man did it. i didnt see the vision when you bought this thing but since your wife was on board and hadnt placed you in a ditch somewhere, i kept the faith. AMAZING JOB MAN. YOU GUYS ALL CRUSHED IT. everyone who had apart, from the tow on, this was a wonderful group effort to restore some American history.

GREAT Accomplishment and Job.. The Worst part to me is seeing out of that Windshield!!! Espec in the rain.. but how cool is that to drive Elvis' Jet down the road... Imagine all the Gigs that must have flown to and the stories that went on on that cabin~~~!!

Jimmy and Grizzley, the Elvis Jet looks AMAZING!!! I'll admit that when you started this project I thought it was stupid and would never get done. It seemed so half assed and Jimmy I thought you were crazy. As it turns out, you were crazy like a fox!! All I can say is WOW! What a one-of-a-kind Item, so cool! Congratulations on a job well done!

I still think he's crazy lol he should have just chalked the jet up as a lose the amount of money he spent to make this not to mention buy it no, way he'll make his money back and there's not much of the Elvis Jet left. It wasn't one of Elvis's main Jet he maybe flew in it a couple times he had it I think for about a year, if it was a main Jet Evis loved the most and flew the most I could understand it . But just my opinion I could be wrong , I don't think so I guess we're see , I would have liked to seen it in it's real form before it was torn up just because it was Elvis's plane but not much left of it hopefully he kept the original interior you need something left The king has touched. It'll be another interesting to see what comes of it.

That took some serious commitment, creative vision and resolute determination to get from junk to driving and licensed for the road. Way to go!!!!

I just passed it in Florida on I75 N. So cool!!! 👍🏼

Arguably, the most insane project anyone has attempted and completed (and survived). 💪🏻

If there was one project I didn't think you would finish, this was the one. Congratulations to the team. Very well done - looks amazing, especially with the polished stainless steel. Just need ac now and some working windscreen wipers! Greetings from the UK!

Jimmy and Grisly and Crew are miracle makers. Love the way it turned out. Just beautiful!!

Thank you so much for sharing your phenomenal Elvis Presley adventure. That’s awesome! Love Evis! Cannot wait to see you go to Tennessee, especially Graceland. Elvis is smiling from heaven!🙏❤️🎉

I have to admit, I was kind of skeptical about how this would look when you put the fuselage on the chassis, but you guys killed it. It looks AWESOME. Wish I was down there for my birthday to see it. Well done, Jimmy and Grizz.

Awesome job Jimmy and Grizz! she looks brand spanking new! Elvis would be proud for sure 👍

Wow, this came out great, can't believe how nice. The stainless steel work really sets it off. Congrats Jimmy and crew!

Grizzley is such a guy, scholar, gent, and great dude to have as a friend! You'll get that hug one day!

When he first purchased that jet, I thought he was insane. Actually he still may be insane but I have to say that thing turned out beautiful. What a piece of work that jet is. It would be nice to see the interior restored and the cockpit restored to original. Nice work!!

I think even Elvis would approve of it, looks beautiful. Except for those QR codes, they need to go, should be on the base not the plane.

Big Thanks for saving this memory for all to see. Elvis was an amazing singer who touched so many of us. So, sending you many blessings on your road trip.

There were a couple of times that I didn't like how Grizzly was treated.......not saying anything bad about Jimmy, because he was in full tilt........but truthfully at the end he realized and really returned with not only letting bro have the first real drive......but showing the love for the effort was top notch......I've been through both sides and while not easy to do, it really makes it worth it

This turned out so much better than I expected!

Too bad no wings or fake engines and vertical stabilizer that they could attach and remove when traveling l

The fact that this is a plane truck is crazy enough, but add that together with the Elvis ownership, must make this thing pretty special. And truly one of a kind. Quarter of a million dollars, don't seem too bad now 😄

It looked like Grizzly was taxiing that thing to a runway. From the cockpit view you forget there's no wings or tail. Awesome stuff Jimmy and team! Love the vinyl and the stainless, looks so sharp and sleek!

I am so impressed, I loved every minute of the playlist, I wish I could make it to Oshkosh air show sounds like fun, go jimmy

Wow Jimmy this is beyond awesome. Congratulations to you and the countless number of folks that helped to get this project finished. I hope it's a big hit at Oshkosh and you're able to take it around the continental US and show off its glory.

This has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen. This turned out way better than I ever thought it would. Awesome job guys! Very impressive!

I honestly thought you were out of your mind to buy this when I saw it in it's current state. To take on such a HUGE PROJECT and convert it was amazing to watch! I really didn't think it would work either, but certainly glad to see you pull it off! AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Thank you, thank you very much" for sharing this with the world!

Only Jimmy is crazy enough to do something like this. And even for Jimmy, this is over the top ... mind blown!

Jimmy, perfection is putting it mildly. You guys have made this so cool. It looks so professional and with the elvisjet website url on the back. Personally I would make the screen a bit bigger so that you can look back clearly with the right feeling.

Absolutely AWESOME! Great job Jimmy, Grizzly and team. I hope you make it to Texas with that incredible machine! Safe travels.

HA! 45:42 - “Shouldn’t you guys be back North by now.” I live in Venice, FL, just South of Jimmy and that is SO TRUE! I love your channel, Jimmy!

The jimmys world crew are awesome. May your journey be a safe 1. Much love and light to you all from Australia ❤🙏🏻

Looks great! Better than I thought it would. ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING TO MENTION!! In the rear where the batteries are (and what looks to be a large invertor)...you MUST get some ventilation into that cubbyhole! Ala a boat type of blower motor that we flip on for a minute or so before starting the motor for the 1st time of the day. Vented to the outside. If not this can literally explode! It would be a nice touch to turn those engine covers into open at the front type of cowling as you really need to keep the inverter much cooler than it seems it will be inside that enclosed area. Inlet air while in transit to keep the electronics cool...and BY ALL MEANS an outlet louver for venting air to the outside of the enclosure! VERY very important!! Everything looks good though...

@@basketballjones6782 Do YOU know that it isn't?? Just an FYI, it doesn't have to be "airtight" to build up gasses from the batteries and explode. Also that is a huge inverter, with a small built in fan that you could see. Did you notice the fan is right next to the door when Jimmy closed it? Where will it draw air in from next to that door when it's closed? I'm both a pilot and a lifelong boatman...what I'm saying is correct and needs to be looked at.

Jimmy and his guys really nailed it on this project, big time !!! 🛫✈🛬touchdown...

I just got to see this awesome piece of work today at Bass Pro in East Peoria IL, and all I can say is this thing is absolutely amazing. Love how you kept the interior original. Meeting Jimmy was awesome, him and his son are great people. I was pressed for time and so I bought a shirt and had it autographed and donated to his charity. He insisted I tour the inside and moved me to the front of the line, which was pretty awesome of him. I'm more of fan now then before. Please continue to make awesome videos Jimmy and can't wait to follow your next crazy/insane project.

The Elvis Jet looks phenomenal Jimmy! If you come through i55 going north from Graceland to St. Louis be sure to stop at Smokestack BBQ in Manila, Arkansas! We got you and the whole crew covered for a meal! We hope to see you soon!

Hi , I forgot to tell you that when we knew Elvis it was in Fla. that’s where we lived and he was just trying to be a star he just wanted to sing and play music and he did it. Thanks for keeping a little bit more of him and keeping him alive. Be safe 🙏😍

Gosh! I saw you yesterday, July 15th at the Bucee's in Warner Robins, GA as you were leaving. I was behind you as we got onto I-75N towards Macon! Unreal what you have done! (I did snap a few photos as my phone was mounted to where I could switch to camera mode pretty easily) Sweet jetting of the roadways, now!

The chrome makes it look likes its going to be flying ! I dont know if this was the purpose but if it is, great thinking ! 😃

Awesome Jimmy! Love the way it turned out, a real head turner. Griz (and many others) did a fine job. Can't wait to see a tricked out cockpit..

We saw you last night and this morning at the hotel and the kids were enthralled! It’s all our little boy would talk about staring out the hotel window! Safe travels! ❤

Hats off to you, Jimmy unbelievable I did not envision this. Wow can’t wait to see it in person.😮 congratulations. Much success.

Looking great , kudos to all involved !

Such an amazing project, I've been watching all the other videos and have been retracing the story from the beginning and it's just mind blowing how amazing this jet is. I'm so glad I got to meet you and your family in Nashville, I never thought I would get to see something as cool as Elvis Presley's actual Private jet. God Bless you and your family, Grizzly and everyone else who has helped you on this amazing journey. I hope I get to see you and the Elvis Jet again.

Jim you are a fine example of cheerful enthusiasm and the joy of life \. God Bless you and yours Love and Hugs

This came out WAY better than I could have ever expected. I was pretty skeptical when this project started (no offense, you know how these nightmares work) and wow I am beyond impressed. Great work, guys.

Grisly is a legend! You very fortunate to have at your side. Give him a hug dammit! Love your work!🥂

Big thanks to Grizzly, he is an amazing guy and you are right you could not do it without him!

Griz: You are a legit mechanic and mechanical designer and all your work is a reflection of your commitment to perfection. Dhang nice work, and you can be proud of this for life.

The Elvis Jet looks AMAZING. Great job. I drove 18 Wheelers for a few years when I took a break from aviation. If you add spot mirrors below or above your main mirrors on both sides, it will help alot to see what is next to you without looking at the video all the time. They are cheap and easy to install and they will look good. I used my spot mirrors all the time on my 80 foot semi truck. Have a safe trip.

All I can say is WOW! Jimmy you pulled off this amazing project! I’ve watched it from the beginning of winning the jet til now. One thing I want to mention is when you were going through the paper trail in the airplane and you mentioned a gentleman by the name of Roy McKay. His family and my parents have known each other for many years. I last saw him and his family in the summer of 1983 we passed through Roswell NM on the way home to Texas. He was a great man.
