This is the ambulance your health insurance sends when they find out you've crashed your car street racing.
Should I be angry or disappointed? 😅
👀
😂
A fun fact you likely didn't know - if you get injured working on your car - yes just standing in your garage working on your car - you can file it as a claim on your auto insurance policy. American legal system is really funny.
Watching the tracker was nerve wracking the entire time, so glad to have played a part!
No need for nerves.
Fred Ashmore already broke the transcon medivac curse.
But then again, he likes to create a good story.

@@TheMechanicsCar-ek1vm There is a difference in driving by yourself across the country in a Van painted to look like the real thing, but running a 318 V8, and running a perfect replica of the terrible idea in a actual competitive event.
@@TheQuestionableGarage What engine is in that old Dodge? If I remember, it's some kind of NASCAR 426, or 440?
@@MK-1010 it’s a 502 mopar big block built to dick landys spec
I couldn't agree more Jared.
I was merely pointing out it was another hefty Ashmore claim.
No way is that hodge podge van comparable to travis'ssss
Glad you FINALLY achieved a dream. Props to Jared for getting it going well enough for the journey.
Congratulations to all and especially Travis. Perseverance finally paid off.
I’d like to see folks do a Vanishing Point run from Denver to San Francisco
Third time's a charm?
That’s what they all say! 😂
🥉🏆
Awesome to watch this van finally make a finish. Congratulations to you all and amazing work getting it back up and running
3.6 MPG -- Legends. Well done.
It wasn't an idea that you couldn't buy Coors east of the Mississippi. It was was the truth!
Passing an active call ambulance is hilarious 🤣
The "Vanbulance" needs a Period Correct Carpeted Dash Cover to protect the Dash and Signatures!
The Van Finally made it across the finish line under its own power… ole Burt would be proud
Capt. Chaos is an awesome guy, met him in Alaska!
I'd imagine there has been more than a few finishes in that Van and regardless if the finish is in the front or the back of that Van, a finish is a finish and even the worst finish is better than not finishing and returning home with the blues.
⚾️🍆⚾️
My wallet gagged when it heard 3.6 mpg on the van doing highway miles.
Wow...FINALLY A FINISH!!
Sidenote...I was at the 1979 Long Beach Grand Prix...it was a F1 race back then and ran more in the downtown area. Somewhere in my collection of old photos i have a pic of the original ambulance van
I just seen the Top Gear US Rubicon trail 4 runner on a trailer, talking to the driver he said he has the Geo and just needed the Ford. He was a very interesting guy. Should get him on here
Really great to watch this
What movie car would you like to recreate?
6000 sux
Without question Bryan O’Connor’s R34 from 2 Fast 2 Furious.
The Cruising Vessel, 1960 Buick LeSabre. Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
The need for speed gt500
Vin Diesel’s GTX or The A-Team Van
You know ur talking to a goody 2 shoes when his idea of drug abuse it taking more than the recommended number of Cough Drops.
To be fair he posted a picture of Whiskey and tea in this video
Great story Ed, I love everything Cannonball Run!!! 👍👍🙂
Send it to Gumball 3000 this June, maybe better luck in Europe?? 😉
I was so proud and happy to see this in person
Captain Chaos!
Cannonball 2.0?
🥇🏆
Congratulation Travis and Ed for a great run.
@ 1.09 I see something resembling a MKII Ford Transit, that is very interesting, because Ford never admitted to bring the Transit state side until the current generation...
There’s so much un-pc fun going on here. I wrote what I thought was a very funny chronicle of it all and guess what? UA-cam pulled it. Banned. We are overrun by daffodils.
Victor what do ya got? A Lotta goodies for guys, and big gulp dr pepper for me....ima pepper, your a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper, wouldn't you like to be a pepper too? WOULD YOU GET IN HEAR!
Ayy, Buccee made it into the video!
I wonder if anyone ever talked to an ambulance maker during the life of this vehicle. If anything is gonna be fast, reliable and carry a ton of fuel it's an ambulance. To have one that breaks down so often is quite an accomplishment.
It's heavily customized to be that unreliable. A stock Dodge van of that era with the Mopar 318 probably wouldn't give them any trouble, but it also probably wouldn't go fast enough for the Cannonball.
So wait.... Your telling me the real former Cannonball Run ambulance is somewhere in North or South Carolina? Well good thing I live there time to start looking.
Next time do a Meet and Greet In Texarkana. I’m sure there are a few of us that would like to say hello
Travis is an amazing person 👍✌️🙏🙏
SISTS on the walls of her lungs. She can't be flown. She suffers from a chronic trem...memium. JJ?
This is one of the funnest stories I have ever heard! Love this so much!!
Such a fantastic run, in the greatest tribute van of all time, well done guys.
My favorite video for a while!! Thanks guys!!
It's quarts here in freedom land.
Man 3.6 MPG is actually insane. I have a big ass extended cab 1996 E250 that I’ve been turning into a lifted camper and that gets like 9mpg lol.
What an accomplishment, congrats to all! Awesome story to go along with it too!
Was cool to see everyone at the Greenwich event, I was living in town at the time and was only mile away from my house.
Ok it sounds weird, but I’ve always wanted to build a few movie cars. 1 of them being the 1070’s mad max hero car!!
I think it’s so funny he frames it like there was absolutely no other option then to just drain it all out on the ground
What option was there other than stop
so very clarkson "we did the best we could, Anyway!! back on the road..."
@@christiangreen1477 Jeremy Clarkson? If so the only difference is he would’ve actually gotten some intern to clean it up he wouldn’t have left it on the random gas stations ground or left it to leak into the dirt
I did the first Bandit run in 2007 with Travis & Jim Shine. Lots of great memories, even appearing in Travis’ you tube video #itssoexciting.
Gas station oil change 🤣🤣
Love it I definitely need to read the Brock Yates book. Just got done reading the book about John DeLorean. I'm from Indianapolis
The Brock Yates book is awesome! You won't be disappointed.
It's my jury duty go to book.
I was wondering why there was a puddle of trans fluid when I saw it posted on Instagram lol
Great video as usual, keep up the good work
🥈🏆
Good story. The Van is cool but a terrible idea for a long distance race car. Maybe the crew cab dually was in second place bad idea for a race car. lol
Dude ask Travis if he has any relatives in Wisconsin n NY! I think I know what of his relatives..
Here's to hoping the module cooling issue can get fixed so it can make a Cannonball run.
Great story!!
how many times are y'all going to show this episode?
Can't say that happened *proceeds to show clip of that happening
Has to be an army green limo next time.
god damn it i clicked so fast to hear Travis talk but got Ed instead WTF !! this van is synonymous with Travis !!
There is so much to unpack here…
I like it, good story.
Travis bell? 😂💚🇺🇸
Why the vid about u buying the GTC4Lusso is taking sooooooo long. Its been over a month. Cant wait anymore
EPA calling in 3, 2, 1...
Lol talking to an imaginary person behind the camera is fun!
so amazing congrats to all that have been involved and congrats Travis
Shout out to @questionablegarage for getting this thing to a finish line!
Hell cat swap?! 🤔
Seems to me more of that particular engine is Cursed than the van, in the original and the recreation it all seems to start-and-stop with that engine,take it out put a 440 in it go fast.
Was it your intention to make the thumbnail shot a believable impression of Burt Reynolds exiting the vehicle? I swear I had to look twice to tell it was Ed.
I really need better friends lol
I want the van! hehe😉🤤🤤
I don’t get it why don’t they take it to a race mechanic and get it prepped
Like 799 who's gonna be 800???
@VINwiki9 🤦♂️
Poor wording, mate... I think it is well known, where the Carolinas are.
Awesome story, nonetheless.
God damn that's a lot of oil to just let out into the environment.
Love it
Whoa im early
Long time watcher and VinWiki fan here, but watching that huge trans fluid mess just made me lose some respect for the channel. It's pretty messed up to just dump transmission fluid at a gas station in front of the pump and act like it's a joke. It's not like it was a small amount either. Probably a 8-10 quarts MINIMUM from the looks of it, and that's an underestimation. I'm sure if you guys put in more than 2 minutes of minimal effort and thinking you could have found something to catch it in. Grab old bottles out of the dumpster and cut them in half, fill them with trans fluid, then fill with dirt to soak it and dump it in trash. I mean at least put it in neutral and push it over dirt. Just know you probably made the gas station owner and attendants life miserable for a few days, while they had to spend time and money to clean that mess up. Could take a few days of scrubbing non stop to clean all that stuff up especially after it gets driven through and tracked around everywhere. Causing property damage isn't cool or funny. Depending on how the owner had to clean this mess up, it coulda cost anywhere from $2000-$10000+ if using a professional company or a resurfacer. You probably wouldn't think it was funny if someone dumped their whole trans worth of fluid in your garage or on your driveway because they couldn't find a container. I know there will probably be people commenting "who cares" or " you don't have to clean that up" or commenting on how easy it would be to clean that, but I'll just ignore those people because they probably have no idea what they are even talking about, or have never owned anything significant in their life so they can't comprehend the real value of labor and property.
They asked it they had a pan, they didnt, asked if there was anything they could clean it with, and they didn’t seem to care. So..
I was wondering why Transcon disappeared from the background of Jared's videos.
What I love about this story and ambulance 🚐 is the friendships it attracted like some sort of social magnet
Great story!
