It's very cool how he is so articulate in answering each question instead of one word answers and avoiding questions he doesn't want to answer... top guy
I thought the same as you but obviously youtube gets the better end of the deal, when you pay them directly I bet they could lose 80% of their viewers by changing platforms and still make just as much money
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me
If I remember correctly one of the first times out the car got run into a Jersey barrier because of a brake problem. Also Raymond Cyst, this is the real F-Bomb, the car Hot Rod/NRE/Freiburger built before the F&F movie it was in was in production.
These cars comeing out of Detroit back in the day weren't straight the day they were new. I don't see anything wrong with the panel fitment on the camaro
Answer to the first question for the axle on the '75 Valiant: Ford Explorer. They're about 1.5" too wide, but put a car offset rim on the back (I used rims for a 350Z) and you're set. $150 and I've got a limited slip 8.8" rear end with disc brakes. For an added bonus, with some modification the Explorer's rear leaves will fit on the Valiant too!
Roadkill has been a great show but MTOD is killing it for me. I did the one month free trial and got a month ahead and watched all the content that was not on UA-cam, but it wasnt enough to convince me its worth it for average fans to pay for. Roadkill Extra is okay but not worth the commitment if thats all youre interested in. RoadKill Garage is the real reason to watch MTOD. Roadkill Garage is great, but I think needs renamed since there's no Finnegan and it just has a different feel than Roadkill. Dulcich and Freiburger have great chemistry on screen and do very interesting projects and I love the setting in farmland California, but its not Roadkill to me. Mike living on the East Coast now doesnt make anything easier either for the Roadkill team, but thankfully he uploads some of his own vids on his personal channel.
Roadkill garage deserves its name. It's a great show with similar content (but in a garage) and 50% of the cast. If mike ever left roadkill, steve would be a great stand in. Folks need to stop pissing themselves over nothing. Roadkill extra has people like lucky, steve etc hosting all the time. Better change the name! Motor trend on demand is why i never have any data. Worth every cent.
Now I'm a proud owner of the Suburban. Mine is a '99 2500 LT fullstock. Yeah it got a few damage and some paint fade, it runs and build to last. Rarely breaks down, so it's usable for anything.
IDEA: small Dakar Truck Vehicle: GMC van/Dodge Ram Van/Ford E-Series Small block conversion, lift kit, off-road racing shocks, exterior roll cage, bull bar, off-road tyres.
I put a limited slip Ford 8.8 in a 2000 ranger with a 7.5. I didn't realize till after the install the 8.8 was narrower by 2 ". I fixed it with some spacers but I learned my lesson for future swaps. fYI. If you turbocharge a 2000 ranger with a 2.5 I4 even at only 9psi the clutch and rear diff go BOOOOM.
olov244 i have a volvo wagon from 72 thats rusted out. I plan on making an evil lil rat wagon out of it. Its a 2 door btw so parts to restore it are well outta my budget. Got it fer free. Original color is yellow with the white interior. But im told someone in 95 repainted it with satin black. Currently its colors are flat black primer an surface rust on top that gives her over all body a sweet patina. The previous owner paid 500 bucks fer it an robbed the drivetrain an rear axle. She sits on concrete blocks under the rear chassis an the front as well.
Freiburger I completely agree with your answer on the engines. Something happened to my 96 Geo Metro LSI in the engine, pretty sure it is a valve train issue but anyway, I took the engine apart while it was still in the car till all I had left was the block and the crankshaft. Then I took a tow strap wrapped it around twice and while my brother held the tow strap, I unbolted the G13B block from the transmission and the engine mount and because of the awkwardness of it, I ended up jumping onto the bumper of my metro, taking the strap from my brother and pulling the engine just enough that it cleared the CV axle and I was able put it gently on the ground and roll it under the front of the car. It is one of many steps I am taking to learn about cars in my free time outside of my Automotive Tech classes. Currently the block is completely taken apart on my bench and I am waiting for more money to come in so that I can put new bearings in and re-ring the pistons as well as rebuild the entirety of the head in my automotive classes this Fall. There is nothing better than hands on experience in my opinion. Wish me luck! However I do disagree on which automotive engine to rebuild. I would say that the easiest engine to rebuild would be a 3 cylinder G10 Suzuki engine. There is a lot of information and parts available and it is lightweight if you don't have an engine hoist or stand, especially if you are just beginning to learn.
13:05 You want some advice on a crazy engine swap. Some people have been putting inboard Marine engines into muscle cars. That's your hint Freiburger. Everyone like this so they see it!!!!!!!! Finny will love it.
Roadkill should collaborate with Jay Leno. (with the stipulation that Leno has to wrench on the car and foot the bill for the journey) And it has to be a road trip road kill, no excuses. Maybe it starts with Leno wants to buy an old car somewhere..?
I offered Roadkill a free car a couple years ago via their email address. Freiburger did respond. Thanks for that. Unless I trade my car for something else that I need for one of my other projects, the 1970 Nova (307/Powerglide) offer still stands.
Forget about the WRX... I'd like to see build a twin-turbo Subaru "Wilderness". I used to take mine off-road all the time. The thing was amazing I actually had it nose down bottom up. I thought it was going to get center-hung. All I did was change the tire size just a bit. So I"d get more ground clearance.
10:00 I fucking LOVED that episode. The roadkill car having trouble and you all working on it when they got there was so classic and I loved that chopped up STI with the straight pipes on it and the turbo just sticking out of the hood. My favorite part was the MCM guys saying they've never been in anything with so much torque in their lives x'DD
roadkill garage is the best show imho.. it's the only reason i have motor trend on demand.. just fyi wish you guys did more episodes than two per month.....
As with every year they also take a month from posting.... they first post on mtod for feb which means we wait till march. It's on the fucking website and they constantly repeat. Don't be a dick it's free ffs
Honestly as a non car guy who's learned the lingo from roadkill my favorite car is just the 440 from the motorhome and it's various escapades in different dresses, it's like the fahionista of roadkill engines
The 6x6 doesn't do burnouts, but one of the best things ever was the Willys rescue, which was just great tech and banter followed by climbing shit. The 6x6 only makes 120-140hp on variant, but also 360-400 ft lbs of torque. Little waste gate pressure tinkering and the thing pulls down the mountain instead of climbing it. I think it'd be a great episode.
The Rotsun rebuild has already happened. Ford 5.0L and a big turbo sticking out of the hood I believe. I look forward to seeing that episode. instagram.com/p/BQxzwOAldHT/?taken-by=finnegan999
for the military truck, just go to a totally frozen lake on old tires and try to drift it around on the ice! if you want more power, modify a Cummins 6.7 and swap it into the truck. it's half a ton lighter than the old 6 cylinders, and can easily make twice as much power
when I used the free trial the best quality available was about 360p, the app layout was disgusting and it kept buffering. I guess whoever is in charge of this has no experience in the industry and thought it'd be a cool idea.
OUTLAWD1971 been doing some reading on that, apparently the ring and pinion doesn't line up as well and there is HP loss due to friction, will have to do some research before I do that
Why mess with all that? A good bolt-in upgrade for you that could be found at a junkyard would be an 8 1/4" out of another 70s A body or, better still, you can find an A body 8 3/4" at swap meets for a little more money, but totally worth it and a better rear end than the 90s truck or the Explorer.
@Motor Trent Channel Have a FREE tip: KEY your dang videos. If I want to just see a question, I can scrub to find it. If I don't care about a question, I can scrub quickly to skip. Love the show, keep on driving!
Calm down children, if you don't want MTOD then how about you just DONT PAY FOR IT. It's that simple. Don't want it? Don't watch it, and don't run your mouth. All of your whiny comments on every MT video are annoying. MT is the one UA-cam channel that ACTUALLY PROVIDES GOOD CONTENT both FREE and PAID. Their paid content is great and worth the cheap price, their free content is great too and costs you literally nothing. Yet you still complain, not everything can be free, the cost to make content must come from somewhere. Most of you are probably 15 year olds that don't understand how money works yet.
They deserve it for free because this channel gets monetization from youtube, sponsors for the show like dodge, money from netflix, free publicity for their own magazines, their product line that sells shirts, and free products like optima. Adding MToD adds a 5th/6th/7th way to make money on something they already monetize.
The power block on spike TV has ~10 shows that release content regularly with the same quality yet the only thing the consumer pays for is their cable. They also have full access to all episodes on their website. There is a difference between making money and scalping people.
adam courtney Powerblock is also owned by Raycom Media, a huge media provider that easily has enough money to cover overhead costs. Motor Trend is not as large as you think it is, why else do you think they do monthly programs instead of weekly? They're simply being smart and utilizing MTOD as an effective way to make profit on a platform they already had access to. They're still giving you free stuff at the end of the day. But that isn't enough is it? You'll still find some way to justify getting more stuff for free.
that would be awesome I'd say, mainly because I would almost bet the body on that 87 k20 chevy 4x4, someone was tryin to give them,is probably alot nicer than my 86 Chevy k20 longbed 4x4 290,944 farm truck! !
you are an ignorant douchebag..bro did you ever read Hot Rod Magazine while growing up..... they need to make money to keep it going in this modern times... hence the you tube channels...
Austin Doud It's weird because now I'm watching a channel called jsr garage. they're pretty small but their content is more interesting now. never thought I'd say that roadkill isn't my favourite creators anymore
me, my uncle, and grampa learned that a body mopar 8 1/4” had about an inch or two length difference compared to a b body rear end and it had a 440 in a b body cordoba so it went and broke the axle twice and it had the a body diff in it and we tried just putting the bbody axle in it the abody diff
bigghoss762 how can a guy that wears flip flops all the time have blindingly white feet? I guess it could be worse he could bust out the toenail clippers.
No, that would be fine and dandy, but then they just forgot about UA-cam, and just used it as a marketing scheme. We used to be able to see these shows for free, but now they show us just the extra shows and crap that I wouldn't expect on the UA-cam page. What I am saying is I want to see what I used to see(the regular show, every month, like it was) then I would expect the 'extra' shows and what not to be on the on demand page. Some people just can't find themselves to pay that extra money a month, 5$ may not seem like much to you, but for seem people it is, especially after we pay 100$ to use the internet every month lol kinda seem stupid for me to say that 5$ is too much, when I literally just threw in the internet bill, but whatever, also some people can't pay for internet and maybe they use a friends or public place or something....idk I think you catch my drift mate...anyway, my main problem with the demand is how much they cram it down our throats in every video they upload, I mean seriously, we get it...throw an advert here and there, but every video, dang...
Just got my first engine for free off Craigslist, it's a 61' corvair engine...I'm in the process of rebuilding it right now (waiting on a new set of main bearings) and going to build a little sandrail with it 😀
David - You work on cars an awful lot; why does it always seem like you're wearing flip flops? Wouldn't closed-toed shoes be tons safer? Love the show. Cheers.
I'm glad to see the trend of show cars being built for racing or more driving. I remember as a kid the billet street rod crowd hated the idea of racing their cars and most of the ones at the shows were trailered in. I like the way the trend is going
don't put me down, I don't even have bread inside of me yet, when I have bread then put me down, plus I'm an expensive model, I was $29.89 at Target, so shushies
Pumkinvine no they usually have a month that they don't film and its usually January so that means go February episodes but last year they took December as a no film month so last year there were no episodes in January and this year the no film month was January so there were no episodes in February. We will definitely get a new episode next month
ROADKILL EXTRA FREE EPISODE... Don't sound like this is the monthly roadkill replacement. just roadkill extra that was considered to lame to charge people for. chill out and wait for actual roadkill
What make/model wheel is that on the Chrysler product behind him? It reminds me of Centerline 'Smoothie's might be called CA smoothies. I love the land speed look solid face wheels
Such a hassle, dealing with issues like these... I mean, Freiburger sits here and answers your questions after giving you all sorts of content for free, and then he even has the audacity to ask you to consider paying for these services - I mean, what strange times are we living in that something like this would be deemed acceptable...
You did good here... but my burning question is: Why do you look SO bothered when dealing with fans... you always have this look of “why the f*ck do I still have to do this” Don’t forget who made you David... it’s us.. the fans..
I remember an artist named George Trosley who did Car Toons magazine many years ago.....in my opinion he should be credited with the “ratty muscle car” look, as well as low profile tires! That’s where I first seen those styles.
You probably right, the show they've been doing for 5 years that's essentially just recording stuff the Magazines have been doing for 50+ years isn't established enough.....
4:56 for the question in the title .
Sammy, Ahmose thanks m8
Sammy, Ahmose thanks!
Sammy, Ahmose thanks
Pleasure
THANK YOU!
It's very cool how he is so articulate in answering each question instead of one word answers and avoiding questions he doesn't want to answer... top guy
I would rather watch roadkill extra with 5 commercials than get motor trend on demand
same
Opposite
I thought the same as you but obviously youtube gets the better end of the deal, when you pay them directly I bet they could lose 80% of their viewers by changing platforms and still make just as much money
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me
@Eduardo Omar Instablaster :)
Thank you Mr Freiburger for taking the time to explain all this.
As a teenager I have learned so much watching you and Mr Finnegans shinanigins.
The problem is Motor Trend on demand is more expensive than what I'm paying for TV....
Francois Pelletier it's not expensive what so ever😂
depends on your income status
Francois Pelletier I think I pay 5 bucks a month?
lmfao 😂no just no
Blair Beaumont lol dude just check my bank statement 4.99 for the past 3 months.
It's cool how he takes the time to answer fan questions. Thanks!
f-bomb's panel alignment is giving me anxiety
Joe Webb so I'm not the only one who noticed that
If I remember correctly one of the first times out the car got run into a Jersey barrier because of a brake problem. Also Raymond Cyst, this is the real F-Bomb, the car Hot Rod/NRE/Freiburger built before the F&F movie it was in was in production.
These cars comeing out of Detroit back in the day weren't straight the day they were new. I don't see anything wrong with the panel fitment on the camaro
Robby Boulet not the panel itself. look at the stripes on the hood.
I can usually see if things are off by 1/8th inch. It drives me nuts.
Answer to the first question for the axle on the '75 Valiant: Ford Explorer. They're about 1.5" too wide, but put a car offset rim on the back (I used rims for a 350Z) and you're set. $150 and I've got a limited slip 8.8" rear end with disc brakes.

thankyou freiburger ! i could watch your sit down q&a every night after work . cheers
Is that thr real dodge charger maximus ? the 2000hp?
yes
izza miata
ZedLTU issa knife
Looks like it
These are being filmed inside Nelson Racing Engines, so yes. He's with a classic Chevrolet pickup in the next episode.
Now I'm a proud owner of the Suburban. Mine is a '99 2500 LT fullstock. Yeah it got a few damage and some paint fade, it runs and build to last. Rarely breaks down, so it's usable for anything.
IDEA: small Dakar Truck
Vehicle: GMC van/Dodge Ram Van/Ford E-Series
Small block conversion, lift kit, off-road racing shocks, exterior roll cage, bull bar, off-road tyres.
Henry Kincaid uh... what cuntry spells tires wid a y?? I dont think thats eny ehere near rite spellin.
Tyres with a “y” ...that’s Aussie/ euro
That a dirt every day job, not roadkill.
Yeah but fred from dirt every day is.....weird.... Like a child or something.
I put a limited slip Ford 8.8 in a 2000 ranger with a 7.5. I didn't realize till after the install the 8.8 was narrower by 2 ". I fixed it with some spacers but I learned my lesson for future swaps. fYI. If you turbocharge a 2000 ranger with a 2.5 I4 even at only 9psi the clutch and rear diff go BOOOOM.
the hemi In a gremlin project: put. "HEMI GREMIE" on the side of the car
This is one of the most valuable rear end videos anywhere
Dunno dude, ever seen round 'n' brown vol. 2 😁
hated a volvo wagon? the volvo redblock is the sbc of europe, embrace it, love it
olov244 redblock 4 life
redblock power is the best power
olov244 i have a volvo wagon from 72 thats rusted out. I plan on making an evil lil rat wagon out of it. Its a 2 door btw so parts to restore it are well outta my budget. Got it fer free. Original color is yellow with the white interior. But im told someone in 95 repainted it with satin black. Currently its colors are flat black primer an surface rust on top that gives her over all body a sweet patina. The previous owner paid 500 bucks fer it an robbed the drivetrain an rear axle. She sits on concrete blocks under the rear chassis an the front as well.
American horsepower 4 life
I have a volvo 740 wagon with 351w in it, Volvos are fun with 450 hp
Freiburger I completely agree with your answer on the engines.

GrandMoffSilvey lmao
you know marine engines don't run hotter then 120. try hearing that engine to 220. let me know how that goes.
Nothing will happen. Been there done it. There is very little difference between say a marine big or small block and it's land lubber brother
The Grand Tour + Roadkill. The ultimate dream.
They got to do something crazy with a Humvee, it would be sick awesome
Daniel Maia A Humvee? Isn't that Dirt Everyday territory?
I rather see the roadkill guys doing it, but they have done joint ventures before with DE
What if they built a humvee mini truck?
Sounds like a reverse of the Monster Carlo.
Speedstar235 lol they could try to convert the Humvee to street use getting rid of off road tires and stuff, maybe it can burn tires
Freiburger deserves a raise. Just a great informative and entertaining person to hang with on the web... ....
I wish I knew more about the mechanics of cars. I feel somewhat inspired to try and learn
Here is a quick tip:watch and enjoy u will learn them on your own it will be natural
It ain't rocket surgery.
Roadkill should collaborate with Jay Leno.
(with the stipulation that Leno has to wrench on the car and foot the bill for the journey)
And it has to be a road trip road kill, no excuses. Maybe it starts with Leno wants to buy an old car somewhere..?
I could support that idea.
Also, Jay can't talk in the episode.
so is this our Friday roadkill?
Invincible Extremes Muscle Cars Garage Yeah haha.
its saturday...
better yet, where's our Roadkill?
Aaron Carr they take February off each year
eh, no big deal, still going to be trying to put brakes on my $200 56 Chevy tommorrow.
I offered Roadkill a free car a couple years ago via their email address. Freiburger did respond. Thanks for that.
Unless I trade my car for something else that I need for one of my other projects, the 1970 Nova (307/Powerglide) offer still stands.
If you come to the UK you need to do a rover sd1 v8 or a ford capri.
Forget about the WRX... I'd like to see build a twin-turbo Subaru "Wilderness". I used to take mine off-road all the time. The thing was amazing I actually had it nose down bottom up. I thought it was going to get center-hung. All I did was change the tire size just a bit. So I"d get more ground clearance.
I'd love to see you guys do an episode with a 73 Ford galaxie 500
My first motor was a ranger duratec 2.3 Dohc still have it today
Australian army has a twin axel burnout rig
Dylan Zrim yeeep, Armygeddon, I've seen that thing light up all 6 at Hidden Valley back in 2007 I think it was
10:00 I fucking LOVED that episode. The roadkill car having trouble and you all working on it when they got there was so classic and I loved that chopped up STI with the straight pipes on it and the turbo just sticking out of the hood. My favorite part was the MCM guys saying they've never been in anything with so much torque in their lives x'DD
"We'll be putting a hemi in a Gremlin"
What could possibly go wrong?
The engine ripping half of the chassi out from under the car.
define 'wrong' in the context of a show like this, lol....
roadkill garage is the best show imho.. it's the only reason i have motor trend on demand.. just fyi wish you guys did more episodes than two per month.....
I would love watching you guys make a military stubbybob
Patience is a virtue , and it saves you money. It won't hurt us to wait for an episode on u tube.
I have one for the Q&A, Where the fuck is Roadkill?
Once a month like it has always been. Its not that complicated to figure out.
Pumkinvine MT takes a break in the beginning of the year.
month** dumbass
outside waiting for you to make it you lazy freeloader, they given you one on dec25th, jan6th and jan26th, be gratefull you fucking turd
As with every year they also take a month from posting.... they first post on mtod for feb which means we wait till march. It's on the fucking website and they constantly repeat. Don't be a dick it's free ffs
Honestly as a non car guy who's learned the lingo from roadkill my favorite car is just the 440 from the motorhome and it's various escapades in different dresses, it's like the fahionista of roadkill engines
I wanna see a half-track on roadkill!
The 6x6 doesn't do burnouts, but one of the best things ever was the Willys rescue, which was just great tech and banter followed by climbing shit. The 6x6 only makes 120-140hp on variant, but also 360-400 ft lbs of torque. Little waste gate pressure tinkering and the thing pulls down the mountain instead of climbing it.
I think it'd be a great episode.
Rotsun confirmed, yay!
Tclans look at their instagram, they have a few rotsun photos
The Rotsun rebuild has already happened. Ford 5.0L and a big turbo sticking out of the hood I believe. I look forward to seeing that episode.
instagram.com/p/BQxzwOAldHT/?taken-by=finnegan999
Awww, spoilers! It'll be cool to see them put a Ford in something though.
JeepCollector91 aaaaaaaa yaaaaayyy FORD POWER FINALLY 😍
Thanks for the heads up, but I don't use Instagram.
I would buy all the beers...all the beers. Maybe even watch a commercial.
I would love to see some 2-stroke detroit diesel in Roadkill!
Catrik yess my grandpa has a trucking company
Catrik made my day seeing this
for the military truck, just go to a totally frozen lake on old tires and try to drift it around on the ice! if you want more power, modify a Cummins 6.7 and swap it into the truck. it's half a ton lighter than the old 6 cylinders, and can easily make twice as much power
Aw, come on Freiburger Volvo wagons are cool.
...LSX swap a Volvo wago
The new S90/V90 has some 1800ES similarities :)
If i remember right the C30 was taken from the 480 as well?
850 too
b230ft
If you want to do a 383 like I did, I recommend using the ls1 383. I love it!!!
I want that 87 3/4 ton 4x4 if the owner is cool with selling it
That Toretto charger in the back though. That's the best looking 68 I have ever seen.
when I used the free trial the best quality available was about 360p, the app layout was disgusting and it kept buffering. I guess whoever is in charge of this has no experience in the industry and thought it'd be a cool idea.
is that the maximus charger that NRE built?(in the background)
if I offered to give them
my 1970 Plymouth roadrunner with a 440 stroker in it do you think they would accept 😂
12:50 the guy with the 84 vette should port the hell out of his intake. $100 should cover gaskets, sanding rolls, oil, & coolant.
makes it look better, makes it look faster. and we've done it.
I have proof
Just seeing the head light & grill in this frame, the F-bomb looks like a big Vega.
use an explorer rear in your valiant.
OUTLAWD1971 been doing some reading on that, apparently the ring and pinion doesn't line up as well and there is HP loss due to friction, will have to do some research before I do that
Why mess with all that? A good bolt-in upgrade for you that could be found at a junkyard would be an 8 1/4" out of another 70s A body or, better still, you can find an A body 8 3/4" at swap meets for a little more money, but totally worth it and a better rear end than the 90s truck or the Explorer.

They deserve it for free because this channel gets monetization from youtube, sponsors for the show like dodge, money from netflix, free publicity for their own magazines, their product line that sells shirts, and free products like optima. Adding MToD adds a 5th/6th/7th way to make money on something they already monetize.
The power block on spike TV has ~10 shows that release content regularly with the same quality yet the only thing the consumer pays for is their cable. They also have full access to all episodes on their website. There is a difference between making money and scalping people.
adam courtney Powerblock is also owned by Raycom Media, a huge media provider that easily has enough money to cover overhead costs. Motor Trend is not as large as you think it is, why else do you think they do monthly programs instead of weekly? They're simply being smart and utilizing MTOD as an effective way to make profit on a platform they already had access to. They're still giving you free stuff at the end of the day. But that isn't enough is it? You'll still find some way to justify getting more stuff for free.
that would be awesome I'd say, mainly because I would almost bet the body on that 87 k20 chevy 4x4, someone was tryin to give them,is probably alot nicer than my 86 Chevy k20 longbed 4x4 290,944 farm truck! !
military truck with 3 axels and 3 engines. One per axle would be awesome.....
3 stroker big blocks with superchargers would be cool
Always polite and respectful of others :-)
so how does it feel to sell out
Austin Doud how did they sell out? they've been sponsored forever and roadkill is still on UA-cam.
How does it feel to be an entitled, whiny child?
you are an ignorant douchebag..bro did you ever read Hot Rod Magazine while growing up..... they need to make money to keep it going in this modern times... hence the you tube channels...
How does it feel to be a fucking idiot?
Austin Doud It's weird because now I'm watching a channel called jsr garage. they're pretty small but their content is more interesting now. never thought I'd say that roadkill isn't my favourite creators anymore
me, my uncle, and grampa learned that a body mopar 8 1/4” had about an inch or two length difference compared to a b body rear end and it had a 440 in a b body cordoba so it went and broke the axle twice and it had the a body diff in it and we tried just putting the bbody axle in it the abody diff
Hemi gremlin is an episode I look forward to.
Excellent. One again we get some simple, quality, REAL entertainment. Very cool!
You guys should put the 440 in a dodge Omni and convert it to rwd or something
You with the 87 3/4 ton 4×4 ,id like it, ESPECIALLY if,it,has the SM 465 transmission. even if its an automatic. I need it .
I'm not going to pay money to see some dude's feet.
Think of the flip flops!
Darth Blazer ghandis flip flops
Gay guy's gotta gay~!!
bigghoss762 how can a guy that wears flip flops all the time have blindingly white feet? I guess it could be worse he could bust out the toenail clippers.
I honestly didn't even see feet.
The ratrod Willy's, which broke on the way to the canteen was one of the "never again" ones..
I'm a rational man. I see Motor Trend On Demand I click the dislike button.
What you're saying is, you're too cheap for $4.99 a month?
No, that would be fine and dandy, but then they just forgot about UA-cam, and just used it as a marketing scheme. We used to be able to see these shows for free, but now they show us just the extra shows and crap that I wouldn't expect on the UA-cam page. What I am saying is I want to see what I used to see(the regular show, every month, like it was) then I would expect the 'extra' shows and what not to be on the on demand page. Some people just can't find themselves to pay that extra money a month, 5$ may not seem like much to you, but for seem people it is, especially after we pay 100$ to use the internet every month lol kinda seem stupid for me to say that 5$ is too much, when I literally just threw in the internet bill, but whatever, also some people can't pay for internet and maybe they use a friends or public place or something....idk I think you catch my drift mate...anyway, my main problem with the demand is how much they cram it down our throats in every video they upload, I mean seriously, we get it...throw an advert here and there, but every video, dang...
Whats the grey/silver car in the back ground?
what is a fetish with flip flops??
he dosn't shower, the flip flops keep the stink down
Just got my first engine for free off Craigslist, it's a 61' corvair engine...I'm in the process of rebuilding it right now (waiting on a new set of main bearings) and going to build a little sandrail with it 😀
Cool.! It was probably my old motor.
I put a jet engine in mine last spring. The chick's really dig me.
RoadKill in the UK would be great, but we've got so many stupid Health And Safety Laws the guys probably wouldn't be able to do anything..
mark wood
no bumper? prison
big wing? prison
loud car? prison
engine swap? prison
5mph over the limit? prison
fuck this country
LOVE THE 440!!! Can't wait to see it again!
Rotsun+440
They put a 5.0 Fox-body engine in the Rotsun.
jonesing for roadkill on youtube but the q&a was really good.
David -
You work on cars an awful lot; why does it always seem like you're wearing flip flops? Wouldn't closed-toed shoes be tons safer?
Love the show.
Cheers.
I'm glad to see the trend of show cars being built for racing or more driving. I remember as a kid the billet street rod crowd hated the idea of racing their cars and most of the ones at the shows were trailered in. I like the way the trend is going
there's no more free roadkill is there?
Yes there is lol. This is roadkill extra that is everyday on MToD. Its simply a free episode. I don't know why everyone is so easily confused.
They always take time off the first few weeks, every year. Chill you entitled crap of a toaster.
don't put me down, I don't even have bread inside of me yet, when I have bread then put me down, plus I'm an expensive model, I was $29.89 at Target, so shushies
My cat peed in you and now my toast smells funny, but sometimes I eat it anyway.
Sean S is your cat okay? I can replace your toaster for you so the toast only tastes like toast instead of pee
2 stroke motors on pit bikes are a good way to learn don't have to deal with valve lash and timing and if you mess up it won't be expensive
Is the silver Charger behind him his?
No. He's a Nelson Racing Engines warehouse.
Cheers for Answering my question :)
wait a minute wasn't the Subaru a wagon not a sedan?
Crazy Cullen ikr
2:00... jeep axles in particular have odd placements of the pumpkin
We get this shit instead of Roadkill this mouth? MT channel has jumped the shark.
Pumkinvine they jumped the carp
MattCStewy they jumped the tart
I jump when I fart.
Pumkinvine no they usually have a month that they don't film and its usually January so that means go February episodes but last year they took December as a no film month so last year there were no episodes in January and this year the no film month was January so there were no episodes in February. We will definitely get a new episode next month
ROADKILL EXTRA FREE EPISODE... Don't sound like this is the monthly roadkill replacement. just roadkill extra that was considered to lame to charge people for. chill out and wait for actual roadkill
Really doesn't matter if I "missed it" last week, I can watch it right now... For free :)
440 in the Rotsun!!
It got a Fox-body 5.0 instead.
That should be hectic.
What make/model wheel is that on the Chrysler product behind him? It reminds me of Centerline 'Smoothie's might be called CA smoothies. I love the land speed look solid face wheels
am i the only one who thinks roadkill should have a crack at anything with a 2jz gte?
Yes you are, those are way too expensive for Roadkill.
Naah they aint that expensive
Those are for MCM ;)
They could always get a cheap Sc300 or GS300 with the 2JZ-GE wich are pretty cheap. Then boost it or whatever.
Elving Lindqvist yeah but the ge isnt the same as a gte, gte will hold much much much more power with stock internals
Will you guys please do a roadkill or hotrod garage ep on a mid-90's GM B-body.
They're great cars and totally under-represented on the channel.
NO ONE WANTS MTOD. PLEASE BE QUIET.
I and many others want to support the show, I'm happy to pay very little to help keep the content alive
Good for you, Mikjryan. But please do recognize that the rest of us have been told about it constantly and we still don't care for it.
Such a hassle, dealing with issues like these... I mean, Freiburger sits here and answers your questions after giving you all sorts of content for free, and then he even has the audacity to ask you to consider paying for these services - I mean, what strange times are we living in that something like this would be deemed acceptable...
"NO ONE WANTS' Flip flaps.
Motor Trend is a BUSINESS. A business about something we all like, but still a business.
They will want to promote their pay stuff. Deal with it.
Your next project should be my 1961 Ford Econoline pickup. I just put it up for sale today. Craigslist Indianapolis.
You did good here... but my burning question is:
Why do you look SO bothered when dealing with fans... you always have this look of “why the f*ck do I still have to do this”
Don’t forget who made you David... it’s us.. the fans..
YES the Draguar is coming home! Can't wait.
Come to canada and work with us!
I remember an artist named George Trosley who did Car Toons magazine many years ago.....in my opinion he should be credited with the “ratty muscle car” look, as well as low profile tires! That’s where I first seen those styles.
I enjoy Motor trend road kill but don't think that they are established enough to try and charge for motor trend on demand.
You probably right, the show they've been doing for 5 years that's essentially just recording stuff the Magazines have been doing for 50+ years isn't established enough.....
Hi were did you get the rims on the charger behind you ...l love that car
