Another exciting project from Paul, he will never run out of things to do, that is good for all of us.
As long as Paul has an imagination he will never run out of projects
Yeaaah
Exactly right Larry 👍
Got that right
Amen lol
Just got off work. Looks like I’m gonna sit in the parking lot for 18 min and 52sec before I go home. Love your videos!
Just left the shop in Glendale. I have to say, Paul, Michelle and Randall and Landon are the salt of the earth. They stopped filming, and though they didn't need to, we had a fine 20 minute chat. They're exactly like they seem on video.
Thanks Rats, you made my day!
Love it! Going to be a very cool rig. One thing I would really love to see…make it a crew cab!
Paul's kind of like a Stone Sculptor who sees this big boulder that everyone else sees as, What it is - a rock, yet the sculptor sees the masterpiece he wants to carve out, just has a bunch of stone he needs to chip away to reveal it. His personal Roll-back!
I got a 46' 1/2 ton, all stock, when I was 16, I traded a go-kart engine for it. I drove that truck for 15 years, used it for getting fire wood, hauled everything under the sun, it would go places I should not have been. In the summer I would take the doors off and go off roading, not like you do but we had a lot of fun. That truck should be a great build and what a looker.
I got a ‘41 when I was 11. Dad and I spent 3 years “restoring” it. 41 years later it’s still in the family.
That is amazing. I'm definitely watching every minute of this build!
When I was still working as a body guy/painter I restored '42 like that. Medium dark blue looked beautiful. I sure hope you end up painting this one. They deserve the love.
Well I figured out why I enjoy FabRats! You all are having fun and truly love what you’re doing … that makes life worth living! Thanks for sharing!
Sounds like a radical build. Can't wait to see how it progresses. "It's nice because we do it twice" is going to come into play a LOT on this one. I'm excited to see the results.
Best part of the entire video???
When you said you won't be painting the 42 Chevy!!! Thats the Right Answer!!!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Love Grader's comment at 3:33. "If it don't, we're in for quite the day". Classic.
Another ultimate build. This will be a good series. Looking forward to seeing it finished.
Paul, this is going to be an exciting build to watch. Thanks for bringing us along your epic journey. You mentioned that it was an Isuzu, but looking at that UD 1800 badge on the cab indicates that it is a United Diesel, Nissans truck division. No biggie since you’re only using the rollback half, but just in case you “part out” the front half. Eagerly looking forward to each chapter of your build. Cheers from Tokyo.
Its amazing how many Nissan ,Hino, UD trucks are here on the west coast
The steering wheel reminded me of an '85 Maxima I had back in the States.
Hello, Tokyo. Sayin' howdy from Sendai.
FabRats worldwide 👍
@@jeffclark2725 and how many people dont know the difference!
Greetings @Michael M in Sendai, cherry blossoms in full bloom ? Cheers!
Love the vision for the rollback! If it turns out half as good as the FJ it will be amazing!!! God has given you a gift to see the that dream and have the skills to make it happen! Thank you Jesus!!!! God Bless you All!!!!!!!!!
I wasn't too sure about Randall at first. But he's a great addition. What a wonderful family.
Gonna be a kickass rollback there Paul! Can’t wait to see the project come to fruition. 👍
Hey, congrats on the project coming together! I know the feeling when you have a picture in your mind of something and finally get to see it come to fruition, Im happy for ya!
This build ought to have some great "re-name that part with Michelle!" Moments.
Keep up the great entertainment! Thanks
Paul , looking so forward to follow this project. Great country out that way. Love the channel as with Matt's and Robs. Nonstop entertainment.
Thxs
Really looking forward to this build! Been thinking about a 12v or a 2nd gen hemi swap for my old Dodge PU.
Saw a similar build in my neck of the woods using a early 2000's 12v, frame, and running gear, creature comforts, and 1950 Power Wagon cab. Very cool truck. Can't wait to see Paul's!
This is gonna be fun to watch! You are all awesome! Thanks for the great content and God bless you all!
This is one of my favorite videos I have seen you do... and yet, somehow watching you all sell the product placement was the best part, lol!!! This is going to be an amazing project and I can't wait to see it all come together, thanks for making it so entertaining. I was smiling throughout this one :-D
I like that Paul is building a roll back to make it easier to get other junker/projects to his house.
Your Frankenstein rollback truck looks like a cool project. Looking forward to the build. Thanks for sharing !! it's great that you include your kids. (Randall being one of them 😄)
@Darin Carlton It's a ChevDoZu! She is a rare beasty, rumored to only be found in the remote wilds of Utah.
That’s a sweet cab, can’t wait for the build process.
That's a VERY rare flatbed. It's a Vulcan 818 dual tilt bed. I drove one back in the Early 90s for several years on a UD chassis.
Vulcans idea was to have the bed tilt both up & down. It can be driven with the bed locked in 2 positions. With one vehicle, you set the bed flat, like a regular flatbed. When you wanna tow two vehicles... you tilt the ass end of the bed up all the way ( front goes down further than it looks in the video) then turn the mechanical bed lock clockwise to set the rear support feet on the frame. Then lower the deck onto those legs. This makes the back of the bed up high.. so the vehicle on the wheel lift could be sucked in closer to the rear axle for better steer axle weight & shorter turning. This bed requires more caution when loaded than a regular flatbed...#1... when towing 2up.. the vehicle tucks UNDER The end of the bed.. so you hafta be mindful to leave enough clearance so the hood doesn't bounce up & hit the bed & dent the hood/ lights e.t.c. going over road terrain you again need to remember the Three fulcrum pivot points, the flatbed rear axle & the Wheellift T bar and the towed vehicle rear axle.. they all move up & down & changes the angle the wheel lift vehicle rides over curbs, bumps & hills.. it's easy to damage a hood if you aren't paying attention. ALWAYS use that mechanical bed lock & tilt the bed so it has down pressure otherwise it can spring outward & the bed will be loose & bounce & send shock load to the hydraulic cylinders. You also need to be sure to secure all 4 corners of the vehicle. Even though it's required by law, many drivers do cut corners.... on a traditional bed.. it's not a big deal.. on this Vulcan 818... you NEED to chain or strap all 4 corners. When the bed it tilted.. due to weight transfer..especially in winter or when it rains when the bed might be slippery. it keeps the vehicle from wiggling sideways or breaking free & rolling downhill into the tool box or headache rack or into the cab. Remember, rear securement keeps it from going forward killing the driver, rear securement keeps it from rolling off the bed.... The wheel lift also had unique L arms called "scoops" . They were originally designed to be the first & only L arm that didn't need safety straps to keep the vehicle from rolling/pulling out if the wheel lift. Slide the scoop in, drop the arm on a pin to lock it ( there's adjustment holes in the bottom of the L arms) then drop the locking pin in the top & roll.... however.. since the 1990's some states later required that design to still find a way to add a safety strap, despite its specifically designed arms. The other downside to this bed.. they're SHORT... I think they're only like 17 feet.. so you're limited what will fit in the bed. It's Quirky, but once you get used to it, it's not too bad... if you just tow one vehicle at a time..run the bed flat like a regular flatbed & it'll be same as normal.. just remember to always set the bed down on that rear stabilizer feet.. regular beds don't have that..so remember.
Sorry this is so long.. but there's very few tow operators that have ever even heard of this rare bed.. let alone been towing well over 30 years to have used one personally. It's not even listed as existing on Vulcans own website. Hope this info helps....
Nobody could have ever guessed what your plan was for the roll back. The ‘42 was a big surprise. Can’t wait!
Got the makings of a really cool rollback truck. Look forward to seeing it go together. Take care and be good 👍
Great build idea love old metal ,, like the rollback haul ,, helped a buddy out years ago hauled a few cars .. I hauled 1 on a tow dolly ,, drove it around the auction yard drove good ,, went to load it brakes went out over drove the tow dolly ,, they brought over the loader and fixed the problem ,, my buddy gave me hell for over driving the dolly .. well a few years later he did the same thing I gave him hell for doing it.. I think you need a few more trucks involved in the build .. then you can call it a 6 truck maybe throw some yota parts in the build ..
Awesome... looking forward to watching you build this.
A roll back bed...a Cummins motor...4 wheel drive...and a cool old cab....gonna be awsome! Every part of the little boy in me is smiling! Looking forward to this build.
These old japanese trucks literally have built Australia over the years
This project is going to be great. That cab your using couldn’t get any better already looks perfect. Little Gradder is a very smart hard working young man Paul and Michelle are really blessed with there kids.
Thanks FabRats for another great video.
God Bless.
The cab of the new roll back put a grin on my face. I'm liking this plan. It got even better when you said it was keeping its natural patina.
My dad had a 1942 and 1945 Chevy trucks 2 ton. The 42 had a newer 292 I6 4 speed. The cool part was the 2 speed rear axle was manual shift. And the turn signal was a mechanical arm on the driver side that actuated from a 3 position lever inside. I always liked the look of that vintage Chevy truck. That’s going to be a very cool truck. Lots of work basically not technical just lots of fun customization 👍
That’s a pretty good idea. Keeping the cab “weathered” is pretty cool too. No sense making something pretty ifn yer just gonna mess it up. Itd be cool ifn ya could put deuce anna half axels under it.
Just when I thought the builds couldn’t get any better !
I vote for a walk around at the neighbors!!!! @13:13 that place looks amazing!!!
That GX470 sitting next to the rollback caught my eye! You should build one of those for the family!
I'm already hooked on this channel, and your plug for your sponser was Awesome! LOL Keep up the great vids Fab Rats!!
This is my favorite build! Love the creative idea of mixing "somewhat" modern with a classic! So excited to see the next videos!
Perhaps what I should say is, I have never seen anyone mix and match components on one of these things with any success. I have seen several attempts, for the most part the truck hangs out in the shop and never leaves. So, if you do succeed I will be extremely impressed!! I know I really like your fabricating! I have worked with wiz bangs like you, but you are a notch above! Good luck!!
Awesome!! I could totally see your vision!!!👍👍👍 Looking forward for the build!!
@11:30 I would advise against doing that cross strap method in the future. If one of those straps fails, you're in for a really bad time with the load shifting. Matt with Bleepin Jeep has a pretty good video on why you shouldn't cross them.
I go straight myself, but you'll get pros arguing all day long how it's done...
use quality straps in good condition and make sure they can't rub on sharp edges and it will probably never fail.
@@alias_not_needed - trouble is with them rubbing on each other, they shouldn't if they're pulled tightly, but there's always a chance. Which is why it's better to be on the safe side and putting them straight instead.
This is going to be VERY VERY cool
Hell yeah!! I love it!! Can’t wait to see you working on it!!
I don't think I've ever been excited to see a rollback build before. Can't wait!
You do build up the story line nicely can't wait to the next episode 😀
Freaking awesome project! Can't wait to see the finished truck.
Appreciate your channel very much.
Easily the best part of this video is you and Randell going back and forth only the way people who have known each other for year can do.
Always love it when Paul throws in a Cousin Eddie quote. Christmas vacation has always been my favorite thanks to cousin Eddie. "Clark, That's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year."
Woohoo! This is a build that gets me excited 😁. Really looking forward to following and watching your rollback come to life 😃
Your channel always puts a smile on my face 💜 Thank you Adan Rat’s ✌️
Paul I am excited to see the build on the roll back that truck is going to be bad ass and definitely one of a kind. Seeing your vision become reality will be a great thing to see
I'm amazed that the UD 1800 started on the first crank (after not running for about 5 years--but, then again, "UD" is supposed to stand for "Ultimate Dependability"). Pretty neat.
It’s always a mystery where they hide the fluid reservoirs. In high school I had a 51 Cadillac Hearse and it had a bad master cylinder so I had to add brake fluid when the brake pedal got low. The reservoir was under the cover on the floor and I could add it at a red light, always kept the cover hand tight.
I had a 49 Chrysler same problem, same location hole in the floor access panel in 1963.
@@michaelwalsh98 ha ha, this was in 64 and once I was coming to a red light and went to pump the brakes to get a pedal and there was non so I had to cut to the right and go through a gas station and out into a field to stop. Luckily there were no cars at the pumps.
Paul, you have some incredible builds - keep up the great work!
"She's in mint condition, as you can see..." Absolutely LOVE that '42 cab!
Paul must have grown up with lots of legos where everything is interchangeable. The vision to take so many parts and pieces and put them together is impressive, nevermind actually making it all work!
Wonder what's better Matts or This? I sense a competition
C'mon, they're BOTH fantastic, & have Great Viewers!
Most of us are members of the whole MORR group and Fab Ratters.....Robby, Casey, Rory.....etc.
Is Matt building a rollback?
Keep up the great work y'all 👍 👌 👏
Not gonna say I love adds but I'm happy for you guys that you reached the point that people wanna advertise on your channel! you guys are awesome keep up the great work!!
Going to be an awesome build I’ll be chewing my finger nails until next video comes for the (definitely)one of a kind roll back 👍😊
I love this project, looking forward to seeing it come together... But don't do the rusty patina look, that's been done to death in the last 15 years. Put a nice paint job on it.... and on the FJ too
lol, wow first to watch. What an honor!
Ya did it! YAY!
Who cares
@@darroldvillarreal3628 I care deeply. His first viewing is very important to my life.
Looking forward to watching it tugging and rolling.
Play safe from Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada.
I can't wait for the videos on this project. Let the fun begin !!!
Excited to watch the progress of this new Franken build. Sounds awesome.
Paul and Michele are great but I'm a big fan of Randall, always makes my day.
I can't wait for this to happen...so excited..keep on making us excited Paul
1942, four-wheel drive, rollback, with original paint. --- Brilliant. ---
Paul...you sir are an artist...step aside Rembrandt, Monet, and Michelangelo...Paul is stepping up to the plate to pleasure us with a master piece!
One of my new favorite Paul quotes "Almost feel a little bit bad about cutting it apart. But, not really it's a Dodge."
I love the fact your going to keep the patina!! That's how every old truck should be done!!
That's gonna be one sweet rig I can't wait! I agree on not painting it but I would however clear coat it!
Bwahahahaha that plug for the green stuff was awesome! Complete with Randell’s finger guns! Ok now I’ll finish watching the video! You guys are awesome
Now THAT is gonna be COOL! A 1942 ChevDoZu 4X4 Rollback! I think Jonny Cash wrote a song about that. :D:D:D I also love how you are not looking to 'purty' it up and make it 'shiny'. To be honest, I would consider painting the rollback bed to try to make it look more like the cab. To me, THAT would be sweet! But that's my idea, not shur I want to venture too far into the recesses of your head... I am all for giving her the creature comforts like Brakes, AC, power steering, et. This is gonna be GOOD!
I got it One Piece at a time....
Y’all and Matt have the best thing cookin on UA-cam when it comes to this 🇺🇸💪🏼
This Frankentruck build should be epic. Looking forward to all the fab work that will go with mashing them all together.
After that commercial, Randal is Hollywood bound! He’s a natural!
First Matt with the heavy duty wrecker and now this? We’re in for a few months of awesomeness!
O heck ya wasn’t really sold on the dodge until the cab came into picture. Building something sweet as you usually do. Can’t wait to see the end result!
Absolutely. Love! EVERY BIT OF THIS! YES PLEASE!!
Getting better and better and better every time. Well done Paul Michelle and kids
When I saw the cab I was like, "OOOOh now I get it!"
Very cool.
Looking forward to the build!!! Already excited for you!!
I don't know if I'm more excited to watch this rollback build or Matt's monster wrecker build!
Love your videos man! I can watch this stuff all day long.
sweet cab! love to see these old trucks doing work again.
Best duo in the world. Matt with the off road wrecker and Paul with the most capable rollback 🔥
I am stoked for build ,love the fact your not painting the cab it's lived a long hard life in the sun to earn its tan.
Gonna be awesome! Im an Agricultural Fab Rat but cant keep up[ with the work load to do stuff like this anymore. I envy you.
Looking forward to seeing this roll-back made ready. Love ya'll's videos AND "teaching" my fav "boss-lady" about car parts.
Love the adventures and the irony of the tow truck being towed on a trailer, icing on the cake
Nevermind, 12 valve is the icing
That's going to be an awesome build!! Can't wait for the next video
Paul I thought you had totally lost your mind but then, but then you revealed the cab. Now I’m looking forward to seeing this build.
Ditch the Vulcan for a 26' Jerr-Dan, trust me. The Jerr-Dan design can flex at very harsh angles that you may encounter offroad. The Vulcans are notoriously stiff and in situations where they are forced to try and flex they normally snap welds.
Thank goodness you think like me. Old with new bits and an awesome truck cab to make it look So' cool. Cant wait. Oh and catching up 3 months of vids. Yay.
This is going to be an awesome build series!! Can’t wait
