I just love the comradery among this group. Merlin, Jimmy, Chad, Paul, Matt, Rory, and Robby. I swear that no matter what it is, someone seems to know how to do it, or someone who has already done it. Need some part, let me check my stash, or I know a guy. They all seem like good guys just to be around and spend some time with.
Nice to have a friend like Merlin, guy forgot more than most of us learned!
Get a wriggle on Jimmy.... you gotta make it.
Good group of folks right there..
The information download Merlin gave to Jimmy was impressive!! Man is a walking encyclopedea. Who needs google, youtube or seri when Merlin's in the house!!
Gotta get a little jet ski talk in there, stand up sit down. Now there's an episode right there. Good to see Paul and the boys! Merlin, well we see him all of the time! Bless U all!
Back in the 70s my dad's friend bought a brand new Corvair with dual carbs, He stopped by the house and insisted that I (@16 yrs old) take it out for a test drive. We lived on along 2 lane straight road and when I hit 105 mph, the front end floated up, and it drifted into the other lane! I got it under control, took it home and told him good luck!......
Its good to see someone using hand wrenches for a change, great job Jimmy
I love it when your favorites are in one video! Catch you on the next. ✌️ 😊
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Cleanest shop on KZread...!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
It looks like it was a long day, Jim. Thanks for sharing. I'm really enjoying these series of buggy videos.
I love that gantry crane!
A Mendolia Trans would help with less breakage ! Thanks for sharing !
The Invincibles ! Merlin, Jimmy, Paul. It should be good at the dunes...
trans axle is backwards and reverse rotation motor - we got this!
it's gonna scoot... Paul should know! lol
I really like the electric fan idea on the Vair engine. We had a 62 Monza and that always was flinging the belt off it seemed like? Well It could have been my dad revving the crap out of it all time also LOL. I`m a Corvair fan fore sure. I`m glad you went with this setup Jimmy. Love the chrome shroud as well and the Spyder turbo setup. Waiting patiently to hear it run.
Good to See You Sir
Shelby!!!! You famous!!
Kinda surprised you didn’t get a fancy upgraded turbine fan like Matt recently showed on his recent morvair fan update.
Until I started watching MORR I had never even heard of this Corvair, nice to see more content on these engines, I also own a flat four thats got forced induction.
Come on Merlin give Jimmy a hand on putting this back together. Jimmy, you are moving right along on the sand rail. Jimmy has his safety shoes on Paul. Merlin what else do you expect out of Hunter.
Hi Jim, great video as always, we are starting to see thew finish line with your sand rail now, cxoming together nicely, a whole lotta work gone into it, thanks for sharing
Good thinking with the tap merlin ,I used to tap some of the bolt holes on the Japanese equipment to america stuff😂
I'm thinking you're going to need some wheelie bars like a drag car, but instead of two little wheels, put a 55 gallon plastic drum between the drag bars. Or a big tire.
For a second I saw corvair in a jetski on the promo
You know you want to listen to that bearing.

🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉 looking good 👍🏾
Did Hunter say he has a pink blanket????
I have a similar buggy I am putting together which also uses a highly modified Corvair engine mounted mid-ship into a Porsche four-speed transaxle. It is called the Deserter GS and was designed to set FTD at the tracks on race day in the SCCA Pro Solo auto crossing divisions. I flipped the ring gear so I can run the Corvair in the natural rotation and it shares the same engine as my 1965 Corvair Fitch Sprint Corsa which is a well campaigned vintage SCCA C production auto crosser. What we will both have at the end are thousand pound go karts with 200 hp. Yippeee!!!

That sounds fun! :-)
It's getting closer to being finished looking good. It should be a lot of fun out on the sand. Stay safe and healthy.
Hi jim, i really like your way to do videos!, you talk just the necesary, no cheek chat!, you work on silence, best way to work!!! You just maybe do a close up shot on your assembly shots, no so high tripod, more near mounting tripod on that camera, not so high and a little near you

Thanks for another video
I only use metric wheel bearing grease.
Looking good
Ha Ha, way more engine than suspension! I need to use that!
2 conversations going on at once, my ADD is kicking in...
Like how you guys work together 👍

Thank you, yeah, we have too much fun. Sometimes I am surprised how much work we get done in spite of how much horsing around we do. :-)
Maybe Hunter wants to buy that sit down??
Love the videos im working on A sand rail 796c. Motor checked oil it's good checked tranny fluid none that don't effect motor from starting right
💰 $5 for Jim's feet 👍😎✊

Jimmy, What is your machining background? Sweet looking shop too!
Could still add braces from gear box upto top brace
Let's be honest, most of us own tap handles, but we never use them 😂
I make my thread cleaners out of bolts , cut slot with a grinder to mimick a tap. Lot less chance of snapping and cheap. I find it funny you call it American thread but the rest of the world calls it imperial thread
I keep looking in the background wondering how many skies he has?
Corviar engine is weird design but I guess it's like 3 Harley engines stuck together
Just drill out a couple of pennys. They cost less than buying washers from the hardware store. They also will never rust.
It's raining in havazoo?
Jimmy Timmy jimmy timmy😮😮😮😮😮😮
Please look at changing the fan !! OEM doesn’t cool very well and is heavy. They make after market fans that are much better.
Engine's in! yahoo
What is the story behind those two jet skis, I couldn’t hear what you were saying?

It is a donor for a fox body build in the works.
I like the Merlin impersonation of Donald Trump, "your fired" Then attempt to do everything to get fired by Jimmer, Jim Jim,? What's your favorite nick name?
If your going to have Merlin helping you then I think you should let him put a big ole diesel Cummins in that rail. Who needs a flag when there could be a cloud of coal lighting your way 😂.
