When he called Mrs Matt and said he was out of gas. She said you're on your own I'm not taking the minivan out to where you are with the gas can. Mats off-road recovery next project should be converting the minivan to four wheel drive with lockers and maybe about a 3-in lift so she can bring gas to him ..... off-road scenarios 🙄🙄🙄🤣

In the 70's and 80's there were such iconic vehicles the red tomato, the general Lee and bandit trans am also the A team van and many more then these cool rides dissapeared for many years but today a lucky few have the viewing pleasure of watching the iconic taco, morvair and banana (not present today but in are hearts) and Rudy's "burnt onion" (cause he's always having to give it the onion) so in closing thank you fabrats and morr for giving us back those feelings from are youth for these mechanical masterpieces.

A 2000-01 XJ does not surprisingly handle anything, I drove XJs all over Colorado for 12 years and did everything but the most extreme rock crawling because I had no cage, I crushed the sides like Rudy does in this vid though. Set of 33s, 4 inch lift, beefing up the steering to 1 inch is always a good idea but not needed, they will go anywhere. I never get stuck here in Michigan, winch just pulls out other people.

Yeah, I was impressed with Paul's rig. It and the Morrvair were the best of the group for sure. The few times that the Morrvair didn't make it up something was because Matt was just babying it and needed to give a little more gas. I'm looking forward to Paul's new rig he's working on. Something that's truly made for rock crawling unlike his Toyota that's really meant for hauling stuff into the backcountry.

Man you guys live in a awesome place. Where I live I can't even find decent spots for my RC crawlers to go wheeling. Best part is you all having build rigs but Rudy and his Jeep follows you everywhere.

Great video as always. I was just in Moab Wednesday and when we got there is was sunny and 103. Then clouds rolled in a flooded the town. The water was to middle of my doors of my Rubicon. It was crazy sad and fun at the same time. Be safe my friend and hello From Beautiful Colorado!

I was just watching some of your old videos , like your work on the old IH flatbed and now a new video ! perfect timing !

It's always great to see you put the Toyota to work Paul. It's the ultimate proof that you build capable and durable machines. Thanks also for the shots of the Moarvair in your videos. It sure is a good looking vehicle. Personally I'd take the Toyota because I'd hate the fear of scuffing up the Moarvair but it is nice to look at.

That Corvair is is about the coolest off road ever. What a great build.

When wheeling with a spare on the back, take all the air out so it deforms on the ledges and not the body panels. If you wheel you have an air supply so no problem to air it up when needed.

Looks so fun ! Good times , nice to take the kids out and enjoy nature's beauty

@@barton_dean39 I had an 87 Cherokee with the Dana 44 rear and the most gutless 4.0 I could imagine even after a full rebuild and putting a cam and new injectors in it.

I'm actually surprised the unibody is holding up OK for Matt but I'll take a factory fully boxed frame any day.
