Nice work Matt👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
What happened to it?
Got mine! See y'all in March
Well, since dogs are free - I had no reason not to. Ticket bought; hotel reserved. See you in March!
Who borrowed the tangerine, I don't remember 🤔
I think the tangerine earned a new name [ the orange crush ] ! it will never be the same !
It can be the Crushed Tangerine.
Love it
Orange Crush!!! Love it!!
Or “The X-treme Tangerine” 🍊 🍊
I like the x-treme tangerine best @@MiniBullyMom
Wow, there is a bit of sadness to this. Some of us remember the Tangerine being Jaymes daily driver, and also going out on jobs before it had a lot of upgrades.
Eh. She’s got the Highlander as a daily. Plus she seems to use the Rental Jeep a lot. She’ll be fiiiine.
@AFloridaSon Remember the Episode when Matt didn't follow Casey and instead took a different, much more difficult route? With the still stock Tangerine, while Red was spotting her. That was an epic episode!
Such a waste, it could have been repaired and fixed with a replacement roof. Looking at the rockers being opened up, there was no rust. What a shame.
Sorry Who ?
That thing was so rust free-amazing floorboards-says the guy from Wisconsin.
You can tell Jamie is genuinely sad about the Tangerine. It was such a nice XJ in a unique color.
Matt pulling the ol “Hey baby, just hold on TO ME” trick… well played
As an older guy I'm very pleased to watch this. Being older realize that this is an epic time for everyone involved with this build and they will have memories forever about this good time and working with Matt.
“exhales zinc fumes” was so perfectly timed hahaha
Lmao, yeah had me cracking up
Editor is 1/2 the secret sauce at least.
What’s the time stamp? I missed it lol
@@ThatDapperTrapper18:05
@@ThatDapperTrapper Around 18:00.
I'd like to know the story behind how the tangerine ended up with all four tires pointed at the sky.
This is th3 question we should all be asking! Seeing how it looked like the middle of flat ground it probably flipped doing donuts at a high rate of speed
Same question
Wasn’t it loaned to Tom?
@@acruz639 Previous video would suggest it was loaned to his son.
its a who done it. I feel like you kiss your anonymity away if you borrow a MORR vehicle???right
Little did I know how easy it is to make a convertible. This is right out of the Red Green playbook. 🙂
Red Green!!!! 😂😂😂❤❤
Red Green would have at least made duct tape seat belts. Ya know, for "safety".
Just have to mash an XJ wish a K car 😂
Mat and Red would make a good team
Red Green, LOL! 🤣😂🤣
18:30
I love how peanut is just slapping her tail against the seat in excitement. I think she likes this vehicle
We must all remember that no good deed (like loaning your vehicle to someone) will go unpunished. But - making lemon aid from lemons is a sweet comeback! This is a fun, quick project!
Big shout out to Jamie she's awesome.
You definitely need to consult Ed on this build . Something like this just isn't complete without plywood doors and body panels.
Oddly, I can say that I helped my friend, Dave, build plywood doors for a CJ-5 as we fit a CJ-2 aftermarket hardtop to it. A mutual friend had totally wrecked his Jeep during the summer while the hardtop was in the garage, making that top available. The body tubs were about the same size and shape (IIRC... it's been about 45 years) but the CJ-5 had more windshield slope than the CJ-2, so the top extended past the windshield top leaving a large opening. We flattened out a piece of aluminum siding (it's what I recall we could find) and attached it to the bottom of the hardtop and the top of the windshield frame and trimmed it to fit. That made a a rather handy shelf space.
Thus was born the "Duckbill Jeep" that was seen on central Illinois roads for several winters. 😊
😂😂😂😂
Started laughing my butt off at 18:20 mark with Peanut in the back seat banging her wagging tail.😆😆😆
NOOOO NOT THE TANGERINE!!! Glad to see y'all giving it a new purpose though.
This channel is great! It moves along briskly, shows the technical details, provides corny humor without being stupid, and no profanity! Awesome!
I'm sure everyone on the east coast is marveling at that pristine rust-free floor.
I actually did comment to myself when they pulled that carpet “wow, no rust.” 😂
I have an XJ from Pa.
Serious rust bucket
Yeah. From the UK. Just had to weld all new flooring and sills. Can't even get the repair panels this side of the pond.
Am on the east coast, can confirm I marveled at that floor.
Moi Aussi... East Coast trashed my 2004 Wrangler Rubi.
Even if you don't want people in the rear seat, the dogs have to sit somewhere.
That's what Peanut was trying to tell Matt!
I'm happy to see how well Colin is doing. Love the build!
I love the steel tubing you added and your explanation of a unified body. Another way of talking about this type of construction is to say its strength comes synergistically. When I worked in the Chevy Engineering test lab, they had the Vega (1970s) floor pan on a cart. It was sagging at both ends because it was sheet metal attached to nothing. Its strength came later when it was a complete assembly, hence synergistic strength.
I enjoy watching yall make fire and breath smoke, dust, dirt, grit & grime. Its what makes life fun....instead of hyperventilating and panic attacking over every little thing. Thanks
This was so fun. I had two great laughs. Rhett vs. the wiper and when Tom and Katelynn couldn't wait to roll the Tangerine :)
That was Kaulin.
Matt made quick work making it from a invertable to a convertible.
He "circumnavigated" the potential problem too before circumventing it 😂
@18:28 Happy Peanut tail thumps! She's just so happy to be involved in whatever you're doing
You forgot monocoque in your list of body types 😂😂
And what do you mean, Matt? "Final form" of the tangerine? Nothing of yours is ever in its final form.. there's always modifications happening! It's one of the things we all love about you guys and the channel. Keep up the great work guys!!
Who rolled the Tangerine and why wasn't there a video on the recovery of said rollover? Peanut loves the openness of the Tangerine. Well, now Jaymie has her buggy.
I think what Peanut wants, Peanut should get, she is a valuable member of the team
What I'm gathering from the information I have heard. I think it was Tom tom's son who rolled it doing donuts.
@@austinaltemeyer7302 not good. Is that why Jamie had the rental 392 which I think is hers now?
Tom Toms son should be the one working on it if he ruined the jeep
I love Jake’s addition to the team. His facial expressions say more than words can!!
I also love how much he loves what he's doing. No matter what the situation or what he's doing, he always has a smile on his face.
I think he's a bit awkward on camera but he's a good guy to have around, he works hard.
He seems like he actually enjoys coming to work lol.
i haven't watched in a couple years, where's Rudy?
@@og.nohaze7740Rudy's Adventure and Design is his channel. Pretty successful too.
Love the dog waiting in the back seat ready to go somewhere.
Peanut just sitting there wagging her tail tells me more about how they treat these dogs then anything they have ever said about that. Those border collies enjoy what they do, probably almost as much as border collies that are sheep dogs.
Matt: "For what we do, we need to go light!"
Also Matt: Has a real engineer at his disposal.
*Also* Matt: Proceeds to have Rhett weld a metric crapton of mild steel to his rigs.
Yeah but he takes a lot of stuff out and kinda knows what he's doing. He's weighed the rigs, all of them are relatively light.
Isn't Matt also an engineer?
@@isaakstagl3749lol no dude he likes to think he is tho. He’s actually a roofer that bought a tow company
Love how Peanut was already sitting in the back while looking at the crossbar.
Being a fellow XJ fanatic this makes my heart hurt. Just seeing a nice rust free one get wrecked hurts but it being a rare one year color option, witch has been rumored to only been available for the last six months production of the xj stings even more. Glad to see they’re not just sending it to the crusher and it’s getting a second life.
Received a MORR heavy jacket from my wife for my bday last week!! It’s freaking awesome. Super warm and comfy. Love what y’all do!! Keep killin it
As far as fireproofing goes, other than leather blankets, I use 1/4" Hardibacker board (it is non-combustible and used for tile installations). It also keeps heat away from combustible materials. It is available at Home Depot.
Short pieces of metal roofing scraps are my go to for welding and grinding shields.
Great team. That went so smoothly and quickly. Jaymie deserves flowers, chocolate, and a spa massage. gift certficate.
Hey Tom. Go to a fabric/sewing store and ask for a Seam Ripper.
It works fabulous for cutting open wire looms Without fear of nicking any wires.
Gees, hope nobody was hurt, that was a gnarly rollover🙃
I got the best laugh ever @ 26:25. "It'll never be done"! Nothing is ever finished on this channel.
Project vehicles are never finished in real life though either.
@@jasonbecker4997 not so, I follow other channels that finish their projects completely. They never even finish 1 on this channel by accident.
The confidence it takes to just take the top off of a car…maybe one day I’ll be a real man like Matt.
Probably helps when half the roof is caved in
I know it's likely you're being facetious, but in the event you do need to hear it, nothing makes a person a man but how they view themselves. I understand a healthy masculine appeal to the sort of stuff Matt gets up to, but in the event it is the case, it's not worth selling yourself short over.
And if I'm reading one little comment wrong, then feel free to point and chuckle. Just hoping you can have a healthy confidence in yourself I somewhat have yet to find.
What an absolutely fun, creative, friendly place to work! An amazing Shop Bossman Matt, and a team of energetic, interested, and anxious to learn and improve, team members!
Love your channel and everything to share with us! It is a great place to learn, be entertained, and just feels great being a part of all the fun and action. Thank You!
XJ's rule - with and without modifications! So easy to work on, easy to run, easy to build! That is the first convertible one I've seen. All that in only ten hours?! Your skills at improvised building are amazing! See you at The Games!
Half done Rudicon has one. Matt's kid Rudy built one a year or two ago.
I think that Robby's Jeep should be the Plaintain! It's kinda like a banana clone
This needs to happen!
Robbies color is Blue, so it will be the Blueberry. With the Banana and Tangerine you got a fruit salad.
Blu-Barrie… because it’s a girl 👧
The banoona
Perhaps Banana Split. Robbie can add the whip cream and cherry on top.
Peanut 🐶 is not included as a backseat passenger.
That little dog loves you for good reason, you rescued her.
Caitlyn is more right than she knows! @ 26:25 she says "It will NEVER be done!" Hahahaha!!
Is the Banana really done? I suspect not.
My late Father In Law had a beautiful 46 Jailbar hotrod. It's earliest iteration had it painted in matte Bellflower blue, with white 'seaweed' flames. It looked great, and was roadworthy, here in Australia. I was at a run with him at the time, and he was chatting with an old mate of his, telling him that he'd been rejected from several hot rod competitions because of the matte paint. "No unfinished cars" was the reason given. The old mate was aghast!
"They said WHAT?" he said, "custom builds are never FINISHED!"
I got hooked on this channel through my husband. We watch & re-watch every day. I love watching Peanut jumping & climbing on the mountains (mesa?). You souks attach a go pro to her, I bet she'd have incredible views.
My dads 84 wagoneer/ xj was stolen and flipped on it side by crooks. We chopped top and installed roll cage. It is a blast. Good work MORR crew :)
Peanut’s sitting in there like “stop blowing holes in my ship!”
Absolutely loved this comment!
No, she was wiggling. You should all put glasses on your nose.
that is one shiny comment!
You can judge a mans heart by the way he treats animals...look at Mat and Peanut
It always makes me laugh when people complain he abuses his dogs by making them run in the desert. 😂
@@jilbertb If any of the complainers would actually watch the videos, they would see that the dogs actually ASK to be let out so they can RUN!
We really enjoy your videos and have been watching for 4 years. I like the new content and my husband really likes the detailed "real" time builds.
All the best to the crew and family from us in the North Eastern Peace country BC Canada.
As an expert in absolutely nothing, I love what you do. Thank you for all the fun adventures
Cage needs to be painted tangerine, Even if you had to use factory belts, it's easy to weld and strengthen tabs onto it. Great job MORR crew!
Seeing that photo of the Tangerine upside down was sad. Think the build is gonna be kinda cool. Looking forward to see how this turns out.
I wonder how many times in that shop someone has said "Hey Matt! Something is on fire!!"
Didn't Tom Tom say that when they were all stuck at the bottom of the hill that the wrecker couldn't climb?
Yes lol
Is Seth from Berm Peak really going to come to the Offroad Games? Please 🙏 his commentary on off-roading would be amazing and we would die to see our 2 favorite UA-camrs together. Berm Peak + Matt’s Off Road Recovery = amazing
If only they could get Sam Pilgrim too!
Yes! Seth! This is the ultimate melding of my two worlds!
I worked in a factory that had robots welding car parts, and breathing those zinc fumes for 15 months aged my face about four years and compromised my otherwise very healthy immune system.
I'm 9 months out of that job and still dealing with a general unhealthiness that I never had before.
And this is work??
Matt, you, your guys and family have too much fun at "work".
Your exploits building off road buggies takes me back 60 odd years of spending every spare minute that I wasn't in school with a few of my school buds cutting up old cars and converting them into "bush buggies". Memories of great fun times, total enjoyment.
You did remember uni-body, unitized, unit construction and unit body. But you've completely forgotten about the monocoque side of the family.
And un
Mostly because monocoque is an entirely incorrect way to describe a unibody car. Monocoque is an old aircraft thing meaning "stressed skin", which a Jeep XJ most definitely is not, considering no body panels are structural.
@@jaredlancaster4137 if you remove the floor pan, firewall and roof from an XJ, how structurally sound will it remain?
@@jaredlancaster4137
The XJ Cherokee introduced for the 1984 model year was the first Jeep with a ladder-boxed chassis integrated into a single monocoque unit rather than the traditional separate body-on-frame
This was copied directly from Google. Even Google disagrees with you.
@@WBatte1 if you remove the hood, fenders, doors, hatch, and core support from an xj, how structurally sound will it remain? 100%.
An XJ is at best half stressed skin, and even then the structural floor pan gets most of its strength not from the skin but from the box sections of the frame rails and rockers. Likewise the roof skin does not contribute to the structure, only the roof rails around the edges. Hence sunroofs. Really the firewall is the only part of the unibody that contributes a whole lot of strength without having boxed tubes.
And I hope you don't honestly believe that the Google summary of the Wikipedia page is the source of all engineering truth.
Seeing Matt with power tools is truly terrifying!
Agreed 💯 savage 😂
Sigh. Yeah.
Matt, since this is an open vehicle, you can probably go with a polycarbonate windshield, and chain link fence brackets to hold it in place to the DOM supports.
Saw the Tangerine at the yard after it rolled and was like whoa!!
I love the way you just tear into things and just build it as you go. The eye-ball8ng of the windshield bars... I'd have measured that 15 times to get it right. Now i want to go cut the top off of something... I love it, can't wait to see how it all turns out.
Gives off a bit of "Humvee Vibe" with the roofline.
That looks amazing. Mat you can curve the bar that you want to run behind the from seat toward the middle beam. That way you can control if you want it to hit the front seat or not. I think you need that bar right there. You need the back seats because you alway have to remember you have to have somewhere for the camera crew to sit.
Good thing he has you to tell him out to do it. He'd be lost without you.
I get why i like this channel so much. Its a mechanic/offroad version of the office. Matt is Michael Scott. Everytime he says some off the cuff comment, every team member has perfected "the office" camera stare 😂😂😂
I just watched the series finale of the office last night. Had never seen any episodes prior to about 6 months ago and binged the entire series. Your comment is 100% on point!!
Tom is 100% Dwight. doing things by the book.
peanut is such a sweetheart that wants to be loved all the time lol
On our way to Zion today from Monterey CA. We just passed by Sand Hollow and saw the wrecker on a trailer on an overpass near Hurricane. Made me smile. We almost stopped to get a couple shirts. I was remarking how familiar we feel with this area because of your videos. You guys (and gals) are very entertaining, nice departure from a lot of other you tube content. We might stop in Weds 12/6 if you’ll have us.
Swing by their shop! I have been there 2x. They are super nice and if they aren't filming/recovering then they're more than happy to say hi. Also great to get a shirt and see the rigs in person.
Orange crush 😂😂😂. Poor Jeep. Good job guys. Thank you 😊
What a great use of the Tangerine! Fast and fun project for all! Don’t forget winch and recovery points all around. Rear hitch would come in handy too. Flag holder, cap the roof for strength and weather. Just put a simple wind and flying debris shield in that can be removed when wanted. A simple light package with rock lights etc.would come in handy. Great content for you channel and use of Jamie’s beloved Tangerine.
Good thing he has you to tell him out to do it. He'd be lost without you.
@@B4UClose 😅
Bonsoir, c'est toujours un plaisir de voir vos dépannage et aussi la transformation de vos véhicules. Didier
Rorys got a off-road buggy and Matt needs one too. Make lemonade out of lemons.
Orange juice out of tangerines 🍊
Without a role cage, that jeep will snap in half. Exactly what happened to my buddy while offroading. Snapped his jeep in half. Lol
NICE WORK GUYS & GALS!
What an awsome concept! One can only admire and wish they had such a unique vehicle. Great video!!!!!
Super happy to see Scott-- host of Driver61-- on the list of competitors. He's an insanely good driver already, curious to see how he does off road.
I was hyped to see seth from bermpeak
Todd from Project Farm too!
Didn’t see Paul from “Fab Rats”. Am I blind and missed it or is he not participating?
Check the website
Check the website. Fab Rats is coming. Vice Grip couldn’t make it.
Peanut’s tail just keeps moving!.Great video.
with the initial cutting i thought: there goes structural integrity! ....it has improved!
I'm still playing catch up and as I told fab rats I love watching you guys do your builds it's amazing.
Don't use a Rolock abrasive disk on a die grinder to clean things like open diff's, engines, and there covers. The sluff that spins off will stick on the oil wet parts and become an abrasive in the fresh oil. I've witnessed an engine wiped out in 30 miles right after the oil pan gasket had been replaced. All the rods were hammering. Use a good clean edge scraper/knife.
That poor Jeep. It was clean too 😭💀
That turned out really good. Interesting that you switched from Makita to Milwaukee.
Sponsored free tools I'm sure
I noticed that too! I'm a Milwaukee guy so it makes me happy to see.
@tubeentonces I like Makita but their drills are really junk, I wore one out in under 2 weeks. I have a little bit of everything because it depends on the tool for me which brand I prefer.
XJs are surprisingly easy to roll over. Fortunately, they tend to hold up pretty well if it happens. From the pictures and the damage it looks like they weren't going too fast, so hopefully nobody got hurt.
They kinda scare me. I recovered one once after it slipped on black ice and rolled. The roof was even with the top of the doors. I'm not even sure how the driver and passenger managed to make it out with no injuries. They must've been contortionists to crawl out of that thing.
I've rolled two, a '98 and a '96, survived both without a scratch. Both XJ's were totaled, at least insurance wise. I didn't have a garage at the time otherwise I would have bought them back.
Actually, they aren't at all easy to roll. Sure, they have a higher center or gravity than a Mustang or a Camaro, but as SUVs go they aren't at all easy to roll -- unless you drive like an idiot.
What a great world you have created there. Inspiring.
Ow man, I think i love this build the most of all!! Simple, sturdy, functional and not afraid to use it. I’lol tell you, this tange (no tangerine, the “ine” has been chopped off) if the best so far!
As another Colin I felt that wiper slap personally! I still wanna get pats with peanut and lady though.
From Jamie's daily driver to a fun "buggy" for every day fun. 😂
Matt lets be honest as the owner you are always on call.
I can definitely see Katelynn being the first one to roll the modified vehicle.
I think this was a great idea I will miss the Tangerine but this will be a new fun vehicle
Love how Peanut made good use of the back seat 😍😍😍
Can't say I'm not sad being that's the best color I've ever seen on an XJ, and a rust-free unit that's been a part of the channel at that. But I'm so glad to see this being repurposed rather than junked or parted and then compacted!
I've got a friend who always picks up a $25 dollar used chainsaw that is in good running condition, at garage sales. Then when a neighbor or friend asks to borrow his chainsaw, he loans them the garage sale saw and when it comes back with the engine locked up, even though he explains to the borrower at the time of the loan that it needs gas mixed with oil, he doesn't care. He goes on to further explain, that this way he is not loaning out his expensive personal saw and not coming of as a jerk, by not loaning out "his" chainsaw when a neighbor asks him for it.
This story came to mind when I saw the wrecked picture of the tangerine.
I did something similar with my chainsaw situation. No need for firewood anymore and my small acreage doesn't need much heavy cutting. So I bought a corded/elect. chainsaw. Now when someone wants to borrow my chain saw to go up and cut firewood I simply show them my electric 14 inch and tell them they need a generator also.
This video is an excellent example of why I don't loan things in general, unless I come with it... .then it's my responsibility
That's why I have at least two tool sets. One from Harbor Freight that I'll use where I might lose a tool, or lend to a friend or neighbor. And one that's the good stuff made in USA, Germany, and Japan.
A moment of silence for the old Tangerine...
Is this going to be Jamie's rock crawling buggy for the competitions?
Should be, by golly!
I agree with this
The windshield wiper slap to the face is GOLD!!!
Your camera picks up Colin blushing really well!
I admire the patience of you and your crew when it comes to calming the fears of all these backyard mechanics and know-it-alls telling you how to build your projects and how to be so safe while doing it. They drive me a bit crazy.
The "Safety Police" drive me crazy .....
Dang Matt, With soooo many wise and learned viewers telling
you what you're doing wrong , in each and every vid, you ought to
be getting damn close to perfect ! I figure if YOU follow all of that sage advice
You'll live forever !
No doubt
He's masterful
Just a little polishing and ppe and he'll be invincible too
I'm guilty. I made a zink comment last week. I can't stop myself.
I poured one out for the poor Tangerine. Seeing Jaime peer over the engine bay reminded me of a Mother looking over a sick child. ❤ What brand of wheels are on the Tangerine? I quite like them. Looks like those rear seats need to go back 6 freedom units.
Those rear hatch lift assist cylinders can be repurposed to the hood and you can delete the prop rod, or leave it as a backup. Did it to mine with the old, worn out ones that wouldn't hold up that heavy, fiberglass hatch, anymore. Works great!
Out of all the videos, this one reminded me alot of how we did things back in the 80's. No fancy computers, no automatic machines. Just some hard work, eyeballing alot, and getting it done. Look forward to seeing the end product.
Breathing fumes in the shop is probably healthier than consuming a “Victory Pie”😂
Yesss another video from Matt ✌️😎 Salut from Portugal 🇵🇹
Amazing how fast you are transforming this jeep. Very entertaining video.
I love peanut!!! She adds so much to the show.
Thanks
Mike
