Definitely one of the best looking tow rigs on KZread!

Amen Brother 🙏 ❤️ "Nothing Better than your little white dog coming to give ya kisses to say welcome home" 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

I watched a couple of your videos previously but subscribed after you helped with the Yellow Submarine. THIS one showed Mater and I LOVE it. Not only the body style but the well earned patina. Nice , very capable build. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks

I'm kind of slow but I'm starting to figure out why you are all so successful (you, Matt, Paul), you are rescuing vehicles that you've also built yourself, or worked on, you've had every part of these vehicles apart on your bench, so you understand even more than regular recovery guys exactly what's going on, where the stress points and week parts might be. It's almost an unfair advantage :) Fun to watch as always ...

Hot dang! They better let you in the tow truck Olympics, that's one sweet rig. They teased us with the yellow submarine for so long and then only gave us a short video! It was cool to see you're involved! Now convince Paul he needs to step into the diesel world with his boat!

Thanks for showing your day to dayadventures

Yep Merlin, that non-judgmental, Welcome Home every time you come home from your pooch always makes the end of your journey that much Sweeter!!!

Thanks for sharing, I am looking forward to the Yellow Submarine series,,Old School Garage and Fab Rats together❤

I saw video of the jet boat earlier. If I didn't live so far from lake Powell I thought about going to get it myself. A few years ago I got a boat from lake Somerville in Texas when water was low. The original owners sighed the title over to me. It was in sunk 5 years before I found it. I still have it.

That's awesome, man.

Camel Tow he says with a straight face. I’m dying. Regardless, great recovery.

I’m a new subscriber. Found you by way of the wrecker games. I’m from the U.P. of Mich but spent 3 winters ‘10-11, 11-12 and 12-13 in Havasu. I met more authentic motor heads there than all my life previous. Guys who built what they drove, not bought it at Barrett Jackson. I’m not surprised you are from there. I’m hoping to get back there next winter. I’ll look you up. 👍

Are the car shows still at the Weinersnitzel on Sat morning and Thursday night on Mcculloch?

Love the flag. A true southerner.

I love that ole tow truck 👍👍👍 Its a veteran all right.

Merlin's Mater is definitely the coolest looking tow truck....!

Nice to have a tow buddy... I did that once. We made an x with some ratchet straps and drove it out.

Thanks for the great recovery video thank you for taking us along you be safe out there can't wait for the next one God bless 👍💯🙏

A desert towing company named Camel Tow is not lost on the less than mature of us in your audience. 🤣

you should hear some of the comments from the customers I would pick up, and not one is family friendly to say on here 😂

Merlin, I saw in another video that you grew up in Orderville. My gggrandfather was Isreal Hoyt who was one of the founders. My ggrandfather, grandfather, and father were all born and raised in Orderville. We are probably cousins!! Love your work!

Man I love your rig I wish you had someone film you more often so we could really see what that suspension can do in that terrain, thanks to you for making my sundays more enjoyable

Looking forward to the Olds. That should be a fun ride. Surprised you didn't whip out the onboard welder. Time to get one installed on the wrecker.

I'm excited to see more of the old Olds. That sounds like it's going to be a fun project. Has the roof on it been chopped? It looks a little low. I like the recovery videos a lot, and hopefully, the recovery of the yellow submarine gets covered, not just the rebuild. I know it's been in the works in secret for a while. Now that it's been revealed, i know it's gonna be interesting, to say the least.

Just watched Paul’s video on the calab can’t wait to see you and his brains work this old cool boat into into awesome treasures

love the tow truck. Old trucks have style unlike new ones that look like a slab

Definitely between a rock and a Hard place! Well Done guys.

MAN!!!, The common sense you show is inspiring. It's 7:30p & I'm going in my shop to do something - I think build that alternator for welding you did. Cool stuff!!!

Lovin that wrecker Mr. Merlin ....... yellow submarine eh? :-----------)

Bringing back to life an old piece of vehicle memory, that will be profoundly interesting as you put the engine in & work on the body. The recovery of the "recovery guys vehicle" was pretty intense, as it was squeezed in & stuck; & then a two point pull released it and you got it "home". Your unique recovery vehicle is one of kind (it appears) & was more than up to task in doing the job; & you have the talent, art and skill to know what to do. Your friend & the others are lucky you were around to aid & assist. And it's nice helping friends, that would likely aid you, if you were in need or "distress".

Always top notch work! The old girl sounds good!

Thanks for sharing the off road recovery!!! Job well done 👍.

Good to see you Fella’s

Always something a little different. The Olds project sounds like a challenge. Thanks for sharing.

Merlin for president!

Thanks again for the recovery help. Such a cool video. Can’t wait to see what you do with that rx7

That old wrecker does a Good job. And Cant wait to see Operation Yellow Submarine..With You and Cousin Paul. Fabrats..Great Video...

Excellent video, thanks Merlin.

Tow truck Olympics. Merlin and Matt, is a toss up on cool factor. I love those old cabs.

Rotary’s are what they are. Good or bad. But the snowmobile sound they make is kinda hard to wrap my ears around!

Love it Merlin! This whole video was bonus footage!!! Tow Mater kicks ass.

Brilliant recovery, love,this channel.

I like that pistol shifter that XJ has thats cool

you might have me by a few years I was 6 years old back in that date .. Great Video ..when I have done chain work towing or hauling I use some elec tape on the hooks so they can't come unhooked .. I moved out of the village into the township where I am at next neighbor is 1/4 too a 1/2 mile away ..when I was in the village and had a grinder out at 8 pm the neighbor was calling the police .. now I can do work at 3am if I want too .. time for a welder in the wrecker .

Your calming voice makes everything works

I had a brand new RX3 Brand new off the sales lot 23 miles on it! .... small car but go like a bat out of hell!

Nice job Merlin.💪👍👍

Worked like a charm Merlon. Well done.

Yellow submarine looks interesting!!!

One of the sure things about wheeling is that you will always find the weakest spot of the build when you need it the most!😀

Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love you guys, Way not built a hydraulic Crane on the back.

If there's a category for best looking at the Tow Truck Olympics, I think we've got a winner👍

Upsetting Neighbors 😂😂😂😂😂 sounds like some noises… not a artillery fire 😂😂😂😂😂

Luv that tow truck. So cool!

My dad used to tell me it’s better to be pissed off than to be pissed on

Awesome find excellent cars and your tow rigs are wicked so cool

I really enjoy The channel it’s always a great time watching . Glad I found your channel. Keep the videos coming !

Excellent. If you're gonna do it, do it right! Cheers!

I think that sedan would look sweet as a 3/4 ton 4x4 SUV with your Cummins love your videos!

There’s a reason there’re other folks building off-road wreckers outta old trucks … there just cool as hell 👍🏻👍🏻

You could put a Volvo D5244T TDI engine in that car. It's not a Cummins, but it's163 BHP stock, and also requires an ECU and probably an accelerator pedal. These were designed by Porsche for Volvo. The newer engines are 215 BHP, and are capable of over 300. Being a 5 cylinder would give you a bit more room, but since that had a straight 8 in it, that might not be a problem. I once tried to buy an old Hudson Commodore that originally had a straight 8, but the back end of the car was rusted badly, so I was going to build a truck with it. The seller changed his mind, so I couldn't get it.

thanksv for the great content

Lloyd is awesome!

Who is going to show Yellow Sub first ,you or Paul ,may need two screens and watch simultaneously 😆

We are working together on it I have four episodes and he has three or four but we will let you all know when we bounce back-and-forth

Great stuff Merlin!! Jason was in a bit of a pickle all right!! Even if he hadn't busted his Jeep I'm thinking he may not have made it through there. ?? You did a find job getting him out!! I keep hearing about this "yellow submarine" project. I'm getting pretty darn curious!! 😁 Oh yeah... in 1976 I was 26 and had my second child!! LOL!!

Always waiting for Merlon’s next video. Thanks for sharing. My neighbors turned me into the city, twice. Luckily the code enforcement officer likes me.

Great sounding old truck.

Can't wait to see what you do with the 32 Olds gonna be nice

So cool

I bet your neighbors just love you!

It always seems like I learned something new in your videos Merlin

Love the rx7 rotary motors are awesome 👌

Nice recovery. Watching the diesel car development with interest. Reckon you'll need a fairly high rear axle to take advantage of the torque. Thanks guys.

I felt that first drop with the Tow Mater.

fun times

That's awesome I have a 35 olds 3 window

hello thanks for watching 🇲🇽🏁

Love your work and your channel, but I wish the cab of your truck was a bit quieter so I didn't have to struggle listening and replay portions just to try and figure out what you say. You seem to put in text for most of it, but if I look away I have to replay. Anyway, still love your channel lol

I love the tow rig it is super effective and unusual.

That’s a good looking wrecker
